The poet lives two lives.
One on the outside,
And one in their mind.

When you look in their eyes
You could see an abyss.

If you looked long enough
You could sink into it.

But most people don’t see it.

Take the time to read the words, though,
And you would know for sure.

The poet lives in two different worlds.
A little escape from the madness.
Or maybe, into.

Smooth as softened alabaster
Their scent to you an immeasurable bliss
Where the sun tucks the moon beneath his chin
Rests an endless dream no more than a wish

This series is all about containment. Quick and expressive. My kind of people.

If I wrote a book,
you will be my central character.
Million copies later,
I may write through your impeccable knowledge.

If I wrote a poem,
you will be in every word.
A couple of views later,
I may speak through your poetic silence.

If I acted in a play,
you will be my audience.
A few applauses later,
I may act out a monologue of glorious affection.

Say hi,
Say hello,
Say no more,
When words stop,
I will understand,
That we are where we need to be.

If I met you in real life,
you will be my soul mate.
A few decades later,
I may seek a second life with you.

So, meet me now! :)
Your cologne is on my shelf
So at least I don’t have to miss your smell

Yes, people hurt you.
God will heal you.
Yes, people humiliate you.
God will magnify you.
Yes, people judge you.
God will justify.
Yes, people hate you.
God will always love you.
Yes, people try to tear you down.
God will always rebuild you back up.
Yes, people made you cry.
God will wipe your tears away.
Yes people made you feel discouraged
God will make you feel special all the time.
Yes, people don't give you a second chance.
God will always give you a second chance.
Yes, people make you feel weak.
God makes you feel even stronger.


Yes, there is a lot that people do to us, but God is always there to change what them people have done to you.
He steps in right on time.
So wait on him, and he'll be there when you need him
