Her Name Means Love (Poetry)
Mina, lovely twilight princessYour blue eyes shine like diamondsGlowing in a darkness seemingly endlessIn a long dark tunnel rife with demons Are you my long lost queen?Or are you something much less?Is there treasure in your glorious sheen?Or are you just a blonde hot mess? Too many questions I have to askNothing any longer seems […]
Imperfections (Poetry)
It’s said practice makes perfectBut perfection is impossibleAnything we do is but an approximationOf the perfection that could be Why is it I lack the wordsTo define the very essenceOf the thoughts I wish to conveyAll I find is frustration Practice, practice, every dayStill the words won’t comeSome sound good, others okayBut my work is […]
Aftertaste (Poetry)
So bitter but sweetMore trick than treatClassic basket caseWith a sour aftertaste Black cat with sharp fangsHer eyes full of hunger painsFace locked in a vampire grinSour as a puss, but sweet as sin Wondrous mind full of witSaw an angel from where I satToo high I set you on a pedestalFor reasons all too […]
Eden (Poetry)
Eden’s not the sameSince you tasted the forbidden fruitOf the wicked truths evil and goodI cannot seem to live onIn this dying garden of eternityForever lost for human soulsTo never find in all their days Searching for the ever lastingScent of your bleeding heartThe sweet taste of forbidden kissesOn the red hot lips of yoursScorched […]
Storyteller (Poetry)
Tell a story with eloquent wordsShow it so well to win prestigious awardsIt’s no wonder that the critics can make accordThat you’re the greatest storyteller of our time Telling tales of great power of warlordsTheir rise and decline through Four WarsThe bloody hell thru which you give us a tourYou’re the greatest storyteller of our […]
Should’ve Known Better (Poetry)
Straight out of a pleasant dreamMore a treat than sweetest ice creamWhat’s this I’ve stumbled upon?Too beautiful to explainFrom it’s too good to be trueShould’ve occurred to me something was wrongThings are never what they seem Should’ve known betterTo every pleasure there’s a catchPut so far out of reachHaving me play fetchIt was a fruitless […]
Ridiculed Romantic (Poetry)
Jonah had his whaleAnd Eden had its fairy taleMy life’s been rather paleWithout my darlin’ Gale You outgrew me, don’t you seeI was full of eccentricityAnd you left no place for meEros is cruel, I chased helplessly Almost too obsessivelyLooking to replace youLeft with only animosityAs a ridiculed romantic fool Jonah had his whaleAnd Eden […]
Remainder (Poetry)
Do we truly ever knowWhat it is we have left?How do we figure the remainderOf our limits, God-given Or just self imposed?The energy or lack thereofSpiritual, physical, mentalThe remainder of theseWe are left to figure Are we all doomedTo eventual entropy?Will we proveTruly finiteOutside of the presence of GraceReal or imagined our destinyThe most mundane eventsProve […]
Purpose (Poetry)
Finding purpose for the wordsCan be so hard to doEven when they flowWhat do they stand for? So many topicsPique my interestsBut which are most valuable?Where should I focus? Is there a right answerTo what a writer should do?Be dedicated to somethingOr plan nothing at all? It is a curious thingThe mind of a writerConstantly […]
No Solution (Poetry)
Sometimes the solution seems too simpleDon’t despair when your mind doesn’t Seem to be all there, we often findTwo wrong things to compare Some of us don’t seem to haveThat intellectual flairGive me a logic problemI may just mindlessly stare For hours on endWithout as much as a careBut I have to do itWhat’s asked of […]
