Category Archives: Poetry: Tears Of A Poet

I’ve sat here long enough watching the flame of this scented candle of life burn slowly whilst melting time into the wax of loss. As I sit here exploring everything around me, I find the appreciation in everything I see; It is the fragrance of love that electrifies the air I breathe that keeps me […]

Poetry is my sadness.  It is my need to bleed the ink of every emotion my heart drips.  It is my comfort when my sky gets dark and my world becomes filled with heartache and pain; it is the internal rain that floods the inside of my mind when life threatens to leave me behind […]

There are times I sit and stare off into an endless ocean of shadows that drift within the winds of my own thoughts. Sometimes I am that man who sees everything with clarity when there is nothing but chaos surrounding me.  There are times I grasp and hold onto everything complex because I don’t recognize […]

Words Forward   It was not so long ago that I found the words to express all that I’ve come to know in this world   and within this life that I have been given to live.   It was not so long ago that I broke the silence   and found a voice within […]

Sometimes I hate when I’m supposed to love. I stare off into cluttered windows watching the eyes of my heart dilate into fragments of distance loudly shattering in the destination of this world unhealed. Those are the times I am numb when I’m supposed to feel holding on to pain I didn’t even know I […]

I am everything I have been afraid to be I am every sight that the witness of my core has been afraid to see because I have embraced every aspect of weakness that has formed the internal strength within me. I am the scar that has been stabbed into a relentless silence and left to […]

If they could just see me now/standing here taller than they ever thought I could stand/believing in myself despite all those frozen years they laughed at me like I wasn’t even there. This mirror now shines/no more fear because I have risen through the broken boards with sacrifice and hidden tears.   There is now […]

I am standing here watching words drizzle on the granite sidewalks of time/ they are endless emotions cascading on smooth marbled plateaus of thought. The sensory of eyelids revel in the sensationalism of reality as the framework of vision become more than a conspiracy of vivid fascinations. I am smiling at the wind as the […]

I wouldn’t say I am one for sitting on bar stools in empty dirty bars studying time, but here I am/ all alone/ staring out a stainless glass window watching life happen and wondering about the sublime.   So many heartbeats out there strive for greatness; so many dreams colliding while searching for possibilities hidden […]
