The Stars

I wonder
as I gaze up at the stars
if somewhere,
way out there,
a star is looking back at me
and wondering the same…
What is interesting to me,
although sometimes sad to see,
is on the clearest of nights
with so many twinkling lights
that out there in the starkness
there is even more darkness
and though they still shine by day
the stars are hidden [...]

For anyone interested: this was inspired by a unique combination of circumstances involving 3 very special friends of mine and me. I will eventually do something weird with this graphic, but for now – use as you are so inspired to. Blessings to all this season!!

The L in ‘Self’

You just have to
Let Yourself go
find a way to
Lend Yourself to others
so that you can
Look inside Yourself
when Life gets tough
and Laugh at Yourself
while Learning to
Love Yourself
because you still have to
Live with Yourself

The Catch

Flow with the Magic,
you must follow your heart,
for where it will end
is right back at the start.
A beautiful way
I have always perceived
for living a Life
full of dreams I believed.
The problem therein,
with a heart all afired:
sometimes it takes you
where it isn’t desired…

The Worst Lie of All

Be quiet
deny it
but don’t say a word
I’m broken
unspoken
the things I have heard
Just give me
this moment
to believe the absurd
To be right
yet so wrong
the line is so blurred
As I sit
in the spit
of all that’s occurred
I just want
to know if
I’ll be remembered

Of all the dreams I’ve dared to dream
my heart is grounded to one from youth
of how I wanted my life to be
and all the things I wanted to do
With all my hopes of love and peace
for this world to see and learn
wishing for a combined release
of all hatred, fear and anger
But somewhere else along the [...]

In the Hands of a Child

Some things
should never be
in the hands of a child
I had
your “ten-minute game”
attention for awhile
You got
off “stress-relief”
fell asleep with a smile
You thought
I was too young
to remember at five
But I
still am fighting
the memory’s alive
I learned
how to get the
favor I never gained
In your
eyes filled with lies
after the day that stained
I grew
away from you
into addiction’s grip
You blamed
me (acting out)
and [...]

Within us all
the poet breathes
the child that cries
the blood that seethes
to writ the thoughts
the soul believes
could stop the hearts
of kings and thieves
would not the pen
in hand but seize
the words of truth
with which life weaves
a web of dreams
the mind retrieves
too late – and for
the poet grieves…
