Looking Glass (Poetry)
I remember writing this poem in a little notebook I used to always carry with me just before work one day. It’s a short and sweet one that I’ve rewritten to be what I intended it to be. “Looking Glass” Alice, take me to your wonderland Between the skies of night and day Your reflection […]
The Shattered Timeline (Poetry)
“The Shattered Timeline” is a narrative poem about the many twists and turns that come with developing a creative universe. All across the shattered timeline So many dead ends lie in view Led along by twisted road signs You must wonder which paths are true O’erwhelmed by possibility The plots keep winding and twisting While […]
Resurgence (Poetry)
“Resurgence” was one of the first poems that I wrote in high school that I felt was truly deserving of being published. In fact, it happened to win an award from poetry dot com, for what it’s worth. That’s pretty neat success for a poem written that long ago. It’s slightly tweaked but close enough […]
The Warrior Princess Creed (Poetry)
Starlight, starbright Under midnight stars I prowl the night Hunting evil Wherever it lies Catch wrongdoers By full surprise Lurking, stalking A judge for right Hunting, creeping In the shadows I seek to fight From highs and lows The vile by moonlight Both judge and jury I have become Know my fury My wrath’s begun […]
In Death Do We Part (Poetry)
If they’re to call our love a sin Then how can any one of us win? If our union is doomed to fail Let’s throw love to the wind and sail In death do we part just the same As angry mobs have us now do Life’s oft a bitter lonely game Unless one and […]
Emerald Eyes (Poetry)
Emerald eyes, you turned my blue skiesTo black, the ground to scarlet redCut my heartstrings, left me for deadTwice fooled by your vile disguise Emerald eyes, you became my viceSqueezing my skull, crushing my mindUsed to say you were such a findWho knew attraction carried this price In a city so far awayYour emerald eyes […]
What Makes Me Come Alive (Poetry)
“What Makes Me Come Alive?” is a poem about always pursuing what makes you happy and fulfilled, no matter what it takes. What will make me come alive?How will I burn ever bright?With this constant overdriveBathing in Creation’s light From nights of innocent blissBlood, sweat, tears, passionate criesThe throes that follow’d tendernessProducts of love’s sweetest […]
I Can Still Hear Echoes (Poetry)
“I Can Still Hear Echoes” is a metered poem that considers how some memories may just be echoes better left forgotten. Can you, do you hear them? In your dreams, do you hear?The echoesOf voices You once knew? Walking throughDull fadedBare landscapes Haunted by The ghosts of Persons you Once so loved Are mem’ries Only echoes?Or do they Still live on? […]
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 […]
