THE TREEHOUSE

I finally agreed when he turned eight
To build his ' Castle in the sky'
With wooden steps nailed up the side
Just so he could climb that high.

Four walls, about six feet tall
Although not exactly square
And little windows on every side
So...

Raising Puppies

The doctors said he couldn't live
Just two years, that's all they'd give
Cancer soon would eat his little bones away.

He didn't cry when he lost his hair
But wore that stocking cap everywhere
And only took it off to sleep and pray.

I...

Your Abusers Memoirs...

You always blamed me, it's all my fault
Wondering why I never got taught
I never became what my parents thought
Their man I'm supposed to be.

But you never cared what I went through
You only remember the bad things I do
How can I become...

Seeking Soulmate

I want to come and carry you away
Away from those long lonely nights
I know you're out there waiting for me
To come take away your frights.

We all fear having to live alone
When we have so much to share
We need so bad to care for...

A Poets Prayer

I want so much to write the words
That other eyes may someday read.
If to mankind I can possibly give
Let this wish then be that deed.

Sometimes at night I cannot sleep
The words will occupy my mind.
I know I'll lay awake till morn
Unless I...

Star Rider

Dad bought a horse when I turned seven
I thought he came straight from Heaven
I prayed for one since I was five.

Star and I became best of friends
We flew over fields like the wind
How that horse could make me feel alive.

One day, "Don't...

Wings Of Love

Like a frightened, beautiful butterfly
In a cocoon the world don't see
If you truly want to spread your wings
Then my love can set you free.

Just dwell on all the happy times
Together we shall spend
I'll gladly show you all our lives
My...

Utter Submission

If you have a problem then I have a plan
Let me tell you as I gently stroke your hand

I will listen intently to your every word
Your voice will be the only thing heard

Here's a shoulder on which to cry
It will be there till the day I die

Fantasies Flight

Taking keyboard in hand, I once again
mount that great, winged steed, Imagination.
My heart races and thoughts soar
as I feel Imagination slowly lift,
gradually escaping realities grasp.
With one hand swinging the mighty
double edged...

Reconstruction

Fix these hands Lord.fix these hands
Such willing tools for sins demands
They do the bidding of a worldly man
I lift them up to Your commands

Fix these feet Lord, fix these feet
They've strayed so far away from Thee
Show them that narrow...

For Such as These

Where do unborn babies go
Who never got to know their soul
Nor we they ever given a choice.

Killed before drawing their first breathe
Innocent victims, sentenced to death
I feel the pain in their unheard voice.

Mama, what did I ever do

The Black Cats Way

This is the end where I cling so tight
As we fly over villages on a moonlit night
Our mission is to create chaos and fright
As they all run to hide from sight
And pray that they will see daylight

I wouldn't have it any other way
Because now...

EVER REACHING



  To lose all control

  To feel your very soul

  To share the closeness we both crave so

  To soar higher than others can go

  This is the love I want to...

Hope Floats (Hurricane Katrina)

They came from every walk of life
Some traveling over many miles

Their only want, to ease the pain
And replace our frowns with smiles.

Giving up all the comforts of home
They took up our struggles to share

Never have I seen such...

Thimbles and Fairies

I lived life moment to moment
At times that distance seems so far
Yet it went by in the blink of an eye
A roller-coaster ride on a shooting star.

But this Peter Pan inside of me
Tells me adventure is still at hand
After all, I'm just a lost...

Melody moved to a house across town
I remember, about seven months ago
We have one of the small communities
Where everyone you see you...

ALONE

The loneliness, it smothers me,
But the darkness seems welcoming.
The light dims more each day,
As the shadows call my name.


 I cling to the solitude,
It becomes my home.
It keeps me protected,
But it keeps me alone.


 The walls that...

In Your Eyes

If I ever wanted to 'reach the stars'
I would not have to travel far
Since I've met you, to my surprise
I found those stars lie in your eyes

Please tell me girl, it's not to soon
For me to offer you the moon
I will stand what this world can...

Memories Pain

I had a dream of you last night
In my arms I held you tight
Then the music started playing
Sent our bodies gently swaying

In that breathless bit of time
I was yours and you were mine
And in those arms, I was home
Never more to be alone

I...
