Stolen Chance

In high school, I kept my feelings hidden,
A crush so strong, my heart forbidden.
Stars I drew upon your face,
In the yearbook, a secret place.

Twenty-two years had passed us by,
When fate stepped in, no longer shy.
You walked into my office...

Crushed Heart

In the hallways of youth, a crush did bloom,
On Freddie, a light in high school's gloom,
Stars on his picture, a silent vow,
Of a love unspoken, a heart somehow.

Twenty years on, a twist of fate,
Freddie walked in, my heart elate,
An...

Love in the Stars

In the tapestry of life, their threads did weave,
Mr. & Mrs. Star, a bond to believe,
A connection so deep, hearts intertwined,
Yet fate's cruel hand, their love confined.

Through the cosmos they danced, two stars aligned,
In each other's...

Mr & Mrs Star

In the bustle of our daily grind,
I glimpsed a face from another time.
Two decades past, in high school's glow,
A crush, a dream, a heart aflow.

Fate's twist brought us side by side,
In the workplace's relentless stride.
Eyes...

Miami

In Miami
Where the sun and sea meet.
The waves kiss the shore
And the water hits our feet.
Bathed in warmth
As the days go on
This paradise of heaven
Where the stress is all gone
The palm trees dance
Swaying to a beat
The breeze gets...

Success

Success - if you stop halfway it says you Suc.
Mission - if you stop halfway you Miss the mission
Goal- if you stop half way it tells you to GO!

 

 So keep going on your Mission to Success. Don’t quit....

Just one

“JUST ONE”
No harm in just one puff,
I won’t get addicted to this stuff.
Next day comes and another won’t hurt.
Soon your breath will struggle when you exert.
a few months later you’re grabbing your chest
Realizing too late you’re in a...

Slowly losing you

I can see it so plainly,
written all over your face.
I’m slowly losing you,
to your final resting place.

Your smile has started to fade,
today it was almost gone.
The pain has taken over,
you seem to have withdrawn.

You woke up short of...

Peace was here

The peace that I wanted
was with you today.
Your face was smiling
and no longer gray.
I know with this battle
there will be ups and downs.
but its nice to have a day
when there aren’t any frowns.
So rest up tonight
and dream yourself...

Sleepless Nights

Sleep was unavailable,
as you tried all night.
That pain inside you,
put up a big fight.
All day you tried to beat it,
but it wouldn’t go away.
The medicine didn’t help,
so we upped the dose today.
I pray tonight that you rest,
and dream...

Married to your roommate

You sit there and stare
at the screen on your phone
I wonder if you’re in there
and why I feel so alone
I’ve tried to get you to see
how lonely I really am
it feels like your gone
or just don’t give a damn
I do my best
to keep the bills...

Life with chronic pain

At 25 years old,
I watch people play
with their kids at the park
on a bright sunny day
I’m a little jealous
that I can’t run anymore
I hurt all the time
and stay so sore
I envy those parents
who live without pain
At times my thoughts

The Life of Death

Here’s a little story,
about my friend called dope.
Thought I really needed him,
Thought he’d help me cope.
So I took him in,
it was good at first.
As time went by,
it got a little worse.
You wouldn’t believe,
what he wanted from...

Haunted Forever

Haunted forever
The memory remains
That day in my life
Instilled in my brain
No one around
to hear my screams
the end of my life
as though it seems
how could they do this
I’m only a child
they didn’t even care
They just sat there and...

Good Days Like Today

Today was one of the good days
Exactly what I prayed for
Strawberry cake with glaze
And Fried Chicken Galore!

Family came to gather
We fellowshipped with food
The calories didn’t matter
Taste is what we pursued.

Occasionally I would...

Last Moments with Momma

You never really complained
Because you kept it all inside
I could tell you were drained
That part you couldn’t hide

When you started to lose weight
You said it was just a diet
You watched what you ate
And I was naive enough to buy it

Puppies

They whimper and whine
Because they want their way
They jump and paw at you
When they want to play
As you walk through the door
After a long day at work
They jump up in excitement
Biting and jerking on your shirt
You go to sit down
So...
