I don't think its broken But it sure is bruised The runaround I'm getting Has left me so darned confused I told you I loved you And it left you so cold I feel like I've been beatin Kicked ,stomped on, and rolled HELP ME I'VE FALLEN And I can't give up One broken heart .....is .....One too much So now I lay here On this cold dance floor I just keep on crawling Coming back for more I've fallen ....but I just can't give up!!

I've fallen and I cant give up
In a heartbeat, we were forged. We adhered well... Like bone to sinew. But alas... Furious is the blaze in our hearts we torched. In a blink all is lost... Like early morn's dew.

Lost
Staring at the moon as it is peering through a cloudy night sky Clouds slowly passing by drenched in a soft halo of the moons love For a moment seeming to touch yet miles apart Them starry spectators enjoying a blissful encounter  of perfect synchronicity For a moment You were the Moon and I was miles away.

A perfect encounter
Was it the fitful dreams Or maybe it was the annoying flies Persistent in their touch and go landings On the tip of my nose ..that opened my eyes To be met With the reality Of a pillow drenched with sweat From my bedraggled saturated hair As that may have been more the cause That rousted me into this sweltering putrid air Not even the ceiling fan was moving As the power had been pulled 2... or Oh... who knows....... a few days ago Outside the grimy fly spect window I could see The rainbow bedazzled sailboat sail Gently moving across the placid aqua blue water From up here on the second floor   I could see the entire lake is it stretched away To seamlessly blend with the baby blue sky Closer in along the shoreline a dozen little kids at play Content in their animated movement as they skittered about All brightly dressed little 4 or 5 year olds Reminding me of gumballs as they spilled out of a torn sack Watching carefully were the parents or guardians Posted in somnolent but  wary guard duty Along the peremater wall of park benches Along the bright green manicured ground Brightly colored and abstract blankets were scattered around Where people sat or lay back To watch the lazy movement of cotton fluff clouds tracking north Standing there taking this all in I noticed two dead flies that had crash-landed on the windowsill Victims of that invisible barrier to freedom Good I said to myself  out loud As I hoped one was the kamikaze who woke me from the sleep into this Although I had to admit the beauty All that life - Love - happiness and fun Was something special to see  for certain And I stood there sweat drenched Overheated and overcome by the overwhelming desire to close the ****** curtain So that's exactly what I did And then lay back down with laced fingers behind my head To stare at the ceiling and the fly that wandered around and around the  motionless ceiling fan blade And I was .... Powerless to do anything about it

Right now my days are long and hard As I plow through these unfurrowed fields Of my life Where nothing has grown for so **** long And as I look back with each turn I make I see the beginning of growth In what will be the flowering lush beauty Of loves boundless bounty The endless  beauty and ecstasy I may be the plowman And the Earth may be our lives You are the rain that sustains Those seeds that we plant together A Living Color portrait In this future yet to be I will stand in that rain forever In order to maintain and sustain That same life-giving growth Let it rain let it rain Let It Rain On Me

Let it rain on me
as the darkness manifests inside her heart gives out a cry, it attempts to erupt, it attempts to destroy, the darkness is no joke, it tears you apart, you cannot escape, you cannot hear a voice, you cannot make a sound, the darkness has decided to stay, to corrupt, to slowly, ever so slowly, bring you down on your knees, to make you bow before it, to make you kiss the ground, because the darkness isn't a joke, because the darkness arrived, because the darkness decided to manifest it's self inside. because the darkness took away your voice, because you cannot hear a cry, save me

A sudden screeching stop As  the voice spoke into my ear I stepped through the vines of those now bitter signs That had guided me to this place that I am right here Where the bitter light of reality casts no shadow And the shadows that were .have now  been faded In this land stark with blinding light It cannot be denied the truth it has created No road so long that creates an endless journey Outside that is...the majestic vision of the mindscape Where eternity's exist in a  thousand heartbeats Where dreams can grow from a single breath As I hesitate to allow them to take full shape Step aside for a few blazing seconds To consider the upcoming storm of deep emotions Building up on those distant horizons That must be weathered along the path of such devotion That had inspired such feckless abandon and disregard Anything but that which was self desired Ignoring any pain I may encounter or how much I may be scarred Though that choice be mine of that no doubt Yet  not mine alone if upon wherever this journey's destination be For where you share the trail you shall also share the load I cannot allow myself to forget Some bonds bind in the mind.... .... and those I cannot see And unfortunately May never be able to see So if I step through the vines at the edge of my view Back to the land of finite - lead weighted moments It seems I shall walk along with my shadow... where I fear I always knew the endless infinity up ahead leads me Toward that which I always knew As the valley of my own destiny That place I now know I will be led Should I find that my destiny... ... turns out not to be you

The valley of Infiniti

I loved you so White as the swan In purest snow *O white love I will hover high Let me sail above* I loved you true Real as sky, oak on hill Dancing in blue *O white love Sing me eternal In healing flame* I lost my one self In the narrow straights Sea depths, outer shelfs *O white love I remember our face Prideful without name* I wanted to wake But was drowned in dream A daymare you would nae break

O White Love
I love to hear your laughter It Thrills me to  the bone I often hear in the same ear I use when listening to the phone First time that I heard it In the realm of almost asleep Until suddenly I realized what I was hearing And my heart took a leap So then I lay there Wide Awake Annoyed at myself for interrupting me If you never experienced this for yourself Then you have no idea to what degree That your temperature will rise Or the chill you feel inside Or the uphill climb you pursue To get back to what waking just denied I lay back down and try to relax Knowing that seeking it..,. ...denies its return Still I try to quell anything that distracts Whisperingly quiet I tiptoe towards sleep Just as I reach Carefully peering over the edge I hear it Then with smile on my face Time will never ever erase I tumble with laughter echoing Down into the deep That sound now like a photograph Oh how I love to hear you laugh I love...i love.. I truly love ..... I love ...to hear you laugh.

Whispers
A box of memories doth open From present to past woken Tale tellers magical words spoken Childhood to adult chains broken Carefree of the worlds way Fun with friends under suns ray Games of football on grass and clay Homework to do end of the day Innocent fights forgotten and forgiven A bicycle a treasure god given Fear of lessons and teachers cane forgotten The ringing bell awaited as blessing given Candy and ice cream shared A bruised leg or arm never cared A holiday never missed or spared Oh sweet memories lay bared Days of young where hath it gone Innocence of time lost and torn Days of young await its morn Days of young be again born
