Random words and memories tango
soon they fall into an ocean of emotion
Now the wheels are turning again
finally the fog lifts!
Except...
I'm still wondering where you are
random words morph into things I needed to say
There was always tomorrow though
a million of them stretching on and on
Time is all we have
Just when every word was perfectly collected
laced prettily the way I liked
You were nowhere to be found
Days gave way to weeks
The weeks have been ushered out by months
hope begins to flit like a dying candle flame
Maybe the sand in the hourglass has run out
Fear slowly melts to regret
Why couldn't tomorrow have been today?

Empty hallway, quiet rooms
Candles flicker, Devouring gloom
Melancholy television glow, throwing shadows hither and yon
sit and watch the figures prance, laugh at scripted jokes
Perhaps then the minds eye will close
On the heels of nothing comes a voice
soft and sweet with a tiny bit of macho too
Click of the remote, a car crawls lazily by
Yes, life goes on, one last wink and the television sleeps
Music may soothe an aching heart
mechanical blood begins to flow
A melody swims through ear buds
Memories etch themselves in every lyric
Tiny button bring a new song
no, days gone by frolic in this one too
skip this one too
Third times the charm, this one might be safe
no, that was a mistake
Hidden just beyond the intro were those blue eyes
I would give anything to forget

If you're looking for my heart it won't be found here
For now it's with my best friend, He gives me hope and happiness, love and courage
And in return that's all I had, Hopefully he'll hold it tight in the face of fear.
On lonely nights it's supposed to bring memories but only the ones that make him laugh
If in fact that dark chill of hopelessness should slink too close.
I've stuffed five years of friendship inside re-enforced with super glue so it withstands anything
Under that lies stupid inside jokes we always find hysterical. I hope he can find them
To hold it all together I used the string of forever love
No, I don't know when it will be back
You don't need it anyway
Chances are you'd break it
And so for safe keeping;
I sent it down to Georgia
It's leaving with a soldier in the forty-eighth brigade
He's mended it too many times to count
So I know he will keep it safe
It looks like you're out of luck until you see tears of joy
Then you'll know without a doubt
It was at last returned to me

I took my time reading this once and then read each line again, only this time outloud. I then paused for a moment between each line and pondered the thought. Each line in it's own right evokes feeling and emotion. Each line can tell it's own story.

I hope all who reads it will reads it outloud to see if they to can feel the emoltion.

Very nice. I enjoyed this. Thanks much for sharing.


thank you for taking the time to read it and also for your compliment i was afraid it sounded unorganized and confusing
No, tater, he's right, very well done.

Glittering stars wink bathed in milky light
rain decorates a driveway,
Tiny droplets explode,
Speckled pavement and fragrant grass
even the rain can be beautiful.
Over and over dreams are shattered
lies are spun from wished delusions
Prayers said in broken whispers sail beyond its face
Oblivious to the sorrow within each voice
the silent watcher only spills more light.
Somewhere love is trying to heal the pain
Only it can see through the moons wise eye
there is beauty even in the rain

Big brother I'm here
No need to wander alone
Please stop pushing further away
There is an end to all this madness
I'll help you find it I swear
Just please don't go back to that place
You simply have to care!
Fear throws icy daggers to my soul
Help me dodge them, make them stop
Promise once more you won't ever go.
Thoughts keep whirling, my heart is aching
Listen to me if only this once
You are needed
I know you're lost
Your soul just grows more weary...
Can't you remember?
That darkness was my palace
You came and helped demolish it
If only you would listen
Believe these words a frightened soul pours out now
You might not want to fly forever
It cannot be undone.
Please stay here with me
The story has not ended
It's only chapter one

Yesterday a lost soul-broken young girl struggled to find her way
Never daring to let anyone too near it was always easy to just move on
Memories licked the darkness, then shrank back like flames in a barrel;
On and on she wandered, the moon her only companion
“Who am I?” she screamed to the indifferent stars
They just shimmered on their inky blanket of sky
Tears now ran in rivers
“Why are things so blurred?”
Day by day the search continued
Night after night she looked to the sky.
“I need guidance, how will I know who really cares?”
Heart full of pain head full of confusion
She needed to trust, just once
The weight of the world was finally too much.

Today a young woman welcomes each day
Sadness has faded, worthlessness was a lie.
Her strength and courage remain tested,
Hope sometimes tries to wander but it never gets far
She dares to dream and hunts the future, what will await?
When storm clouds gather, and the rain begins shelter is never far.
Volcanoes of emotion never have erupted again.
Every piece to the puzzle now found, the ground is rock solid
And when it's not she'll know where to go
The journey is over
At last she's home
Blessed not in birth but by living, searching
The definition of “Momma” is now known


Dedicated to Kim


Momma I just wanted to say thank you for not only being there when there were too many tears being shed to remember exactly why but for reminding me that faith and hope are real things and nobody is worthless life is never eternally dark and hopeless sometimes it just takes awhile for the sun to shine. in a lot of ways you mean more to me than my real mother ever has in all my 22 years on this earth. you are the most wonderful mom anyone could ever ask for adopted or not. yea i know at 22 moms aren't really a necessity but they're great to have anyway. I Love You Mom!!!

It holds warm summer days
And chilled Autumn nights.
Excited screams and laughter aplenty
Hot chocolate before breakfast.
Sneak a cookie before supper but don't tell
Never before have two digits had a voice
They scream of long nights two little girls spent giggling
Promising to be not just cousins, but best friends forever.
In their eyes he did no wrong
Father to one
Hero to the other
It whispers his voice on lonely nights
And wisdom when overcome with fear
Brightly painted above that car
It seems forever since we watched it speed by
A lifetime ago we cheered for the man behind the wheel
How our hearts leaped when he crossed the finish line.
Sometimes mingled with these bittersweet pictures
Is the smell of grease on a cool concrete floor
The clang of tools in steady strong hands
And the deafening roar of an engine heard eons ago.
Gone forever on that haunting September day
He lives on in our hearts
In that number that once upon a time
Meant nothing at all


A tribute to my hero and in many cases my best teacher Dion Parish, the best uncle and father anyone could've had

Last sunday my uncle Jack's father was rushed to the hospital he had a heart attack they kept him there overnight and the next morning he had a series of little ones the doctors can't figure out why. my uncle is also my dad's boss and so when he came home on his lunch break he informed my brother and i that there was nothing further they could do for jack's dad they sent him home this afternoon with meds to manage the pain frown and chances are he'll succumb to a heart attack pretty soon so if you could keep jack and the rest in your thoughts and prayers it would be appreciated
