Very nice.

Interesting DKW. I don't know about her being life's purpose. Of course I haven't given it much thought. The bond we share is deep and unmistakable and could be as you suggest. Sounds like a future conversation in the making. Thanks for reading.

Forever Bound

Sinking low in fathoms deep
Within her upcast eyes,
Reaching to her spirit
Where my love of life doth lie.

My strength beheld by kisses
So soft in tender's keep,
The center of my heart
Found where joyous teardrops weep.

The pallid glow of moonlight
Creates her aura's shine,
While visions of her beauty
Swell my heart with pride.

To her love I do surrender
All I'd never be,
This heart she bears to carry
Once lied marred inside of me.

Undeserving to the end
I lied in prideful shame,
This dear woman took it all
And bore to me no blame.

Now I'm bound to her by honor
Along with truth and love,
With a bonus of deep passion
Our hearts forever bound as one.

Ahh yes KC, Very true my friend. Thanks. As always, life seems, at best, a compromise most times. In that compromise we find the treasures awaiting us down the road.

Altered Deception

Twisted perceptions
Of lives we endure
Open strife mounting
In troubles procured.
Lost in the wastes
And abandoned are dreams
Giving rise to the heartaches
That burst at the seams.

Passion with decadence
Perverting what's right
Nothing's the same
Though changes are slight.

The spirit speaks softly
Most never will hear
What's caught by the whispers
Are dropped by the ear.
What's spoken by heart
Are deceived by the deeds
Misguided and gelded
Forgotten are needs.

Misplaced is the light
For we look not within
Considered deceptions
As we look for a win.
Construed in this nature
All exceptions are lost
Tally the sum
And defined is the cost.

Conceived in true spirit
While taken to heart
Think while you can
While a wisdom imparts.

Twisted perceptions
Forbid us to dream
The spirit speaks softly
Of what we've forgotten to need.
Misplaced is the light,
For if we look not within
All exceptions are lost
As we sink in our swim.

Dying Inside

You tell me that you love me
I wonder what is wrong
The look that's in your eyes
Seems to tell a different song.

Sure I gave my heart
As I freely gave my love
Why now all a sudden
Does it not seem enough?

I sit here in my torture
And wait for you each time
You never seem to show
And there's no reason to your rhyme

There's always an excuse
As I take the good with bad
Yet when I think to leave
I keep thinking you'll be back

I wished to speak a while
But like always you're not there
You had to go again
I wonder if you care

It now has been two months
Since I've held you in my arms
My tears have long since dried
As I now see through your charm

I know you have your reasons
As do I my dear
This time no looking back
For my pain outweighs my fear.

The Price of Love

You say you want a love
Someone different than the rest
Tell me are you looking
Or just hoping for the best

No matter who we are
We're all different yet the same
Most all of us have hurt
But still we play the game

Most hearts you'll find are tender
Yet broken to the core
Stained with salty tears
From relationships before

Some hide behind their words
Covered deep in charms
Others play their games
To avoid the deep felt harm

Still others find their comfort
And brave the winds of change
Boldly they are willing
To chance a love again

Be mindful of your feelings
Don't judge what you don't see
Listen to your heart
It's advice may be your key

No matter who you are
You make your dreams come true
And if you anticipate the bad
Then bad will come to you.

Love is always cheap
But never is it free
If happy is your labor
Then happy you will be.

Feigned Insecurity

Standing at the crossroads
Yes where shall I turn
Caught up in the middle
Why does it always hurt?

Dream after dream
And all is still the same
I haven't changed at all
Must I begin again?

Looking for the pieces
What's left I cannot hide
Finding what's within me
Why should I even try?

This road has appeared
Too many times before
Never have I listened
My choices seem abhorred

A faction I am leading
A figment of my mind
Plunging into fiction
Spinning in a dive

Where's my avenging angel
Called to me from high
No need for all this doubting
Thomas you're denied

Lost within betrayal
A scourge within myself
Exfoliate the layers
Examine my own hell

Insecurity running rampant
As curses hang like fog
Unbelieving eyes
See what's never real at all

Strapped into submission
Alas now I must rest
Fatigue strikes with precision
As I draw a shallow breath

Much too young to worry
And too old to live a lie
Forgetting all the drama
That cause the innocent to die
