Who I am and Why I’m here-


“Who I am”-    That is a question  I am constantly trying to answer. I’m a writer. It’s a simple statement. I am a writer. What does that mean? Does it mean I’m published? Does it mean the world knows my name? No and no…. It does mean that I’m a bit odd, that I…

Pushing-


I’m still pushing Even though it hurts I’m still walking as if I’ll reach my destination I’m still searching through the fog for answers Taking my best shot I imagine a distant horizon And I can almost feel the warm sun on my face. Is there truly a reason for everything that happens? Everything that’s…

Inspiration’s Ghost


Inspiration comes Inspiration goes It follows me like a ghost I feel a cold wind I see the trees move I close my eyes and my life flashes in hues of blue Dreams of you Voices of years ago My heart stops I’m accepting that I cannot change you That I have to let go…

Pen-


There’s still some ink left in this pen Yes, it flows from end to end I remember when I was young A candle dimly lit into the unknown My fear is that the candle will burn out And then I’ll be left all alone It seems just like yesterday I was so young I had…

I need you to stay-


I hope one day all the work I’ve done All the words I’ve written All the stories spillin’ Will breathe the light of day Will you take it all in? Is everything just nothing? What do I do this for? Am I just a writer gone mad? Is it so cliché’? Will you allow me…


As if it were our last-   Life passes by so fast, in the blink of an eye You make choices, follow and disobey some rules Learn and forget, and then learn again Try not to take a step backward, always pressing on Forward- Although, you may not know what lays ahead All we have…

When I go


It all comes down to when I go I hear my heart beat very slow Some day’s I forget and I start to fret Thinking that you’re coming home Dinner isn’t done And oh no,  my bed isn’t made And then I get a feeling It isn’t very appealing My bones begin to ache And…

Little Girl-


Little Girl You’re growing up too fast Slow down Take it easy Little Girl Give me a kiss on my cheek I love you so Daddy’s girl You’re mine too Little Girl Smile Laugh Skip all the way Throw the ball Let’s play Pretend you’re a fairy I’ll catch you every time Little Girl Time…

Taken in by you


I’m home The only real home I’ve known It’s the only place I want to go I’m taken by your beauty Lost in your embrace Forgiven Loved, even with all my faults Your tranquil ways Calm my rough edges No one else can help me I’m too much to take Nothing else matters It’s all…

Faith


Faith, don’t desert me in my darkest hour Faith, pick me up, for hope has abandoned me Faith, come back to me, for I am in need I wish you to come to me; in effortless fancy Swiftly and quietly Hurry I beg; for I fear that doubt surrounds me I have tried to do…
