  • Phantasm Paralysis

    Gulp down the sleep aid, eyeing the mirror, waiting ‘til my throat feels a bit clearer. Turn off the lights and watch as the darkness loom overhead, but shadows are harmless.

  • I Was Not a Good Student

    I was not a good student,  I missed a lot of my classes, But I was not the student that  demanded free passes. I accepted my failures, I accepted my flaw, I did not define success On the attendance law. I was not a good student, I did not submit all my work, But I

  • It Was Always You

    A little nudge, A sideways glance. Hoping you understand, Taking a chance. A slight tap, A restful sigh, I think I understood, The look in your eye. Always different, Unlike any other, Always the one, Always my lover. From the beginning, we always knew, From the beginning,  it was always you.

  • Black Mountian

    Crystal clear waters, one endless blue sky, Lush green vegetation, chipper cardinals nearby.  Hungry young squirrels now satisfied, A gentle breeze along the mountainside. A day of paradise, the world so whole, Doomed to be the last, when they come for coal. The throne taken over, her head removed,  The repose disturbed, life disapproved. The

  • You

    When the sun goes down and the stars come out, That’s when I realize what our love’s about. Your light shines though my broken heart, Sowing it together, never again to be apart. You pick me up when I come crashing down, put my pieces together from off the ground. You make me better, you

  • Never Say Goodbye

    A simple message from you can make my day, a simple smile from you goes a long way. The gleam in your eye makes it hard to see, the negativity in the world around me. When I’m with you, it’s as if it’s only us, and the fears deep inside quiet their fuss. It is

  • I Live With Fear

    I live with fear so I’m never alone. When you drew near I should have known that the price I pay is the gain you make. The words you say are so hard to take. You call this love? What you do to me? When all I dream of is just to be free. You
