I'm a carpenter from Michigan who has moved over here from another poetry site looking for a little more activity and interaction, the written word, emotions poured onto paper should be shared with others, I want people to read my thoughts and say "exactly, thats exactly how I feel or felt" So hello to my new friends. I look forward to your feedback negative or positive as well as looking forward to being moved by others writings.
Hope is a liar
destiny a cheat
but worst of all love
love is a thief
she takes what is yours
what is meant to be
blinded by beauty
we refuse to see
she opens our hearts
closes our eyes
while were busy dreaming
she steals us blind.

Im loving you like your still here
I hear your whisper in my ear
Your kiss is still on the tip of my tounge
I still feel the silk of your night gown as it comes undone
I can still taste the earth from the garden on your skin
On sunday mornings I can still smell the coffee and the cinnamon
Im loving you like your still here
Like all of this is really real
Like I never left and you never cryed
Like we didnt pretend
That it was not goodbye

From Wyandotte to Nokomis Falls
I would follow her that far
Follow my heart follow my dream
A lonely rook searching for his Queen
The journey of the heart is rittled with the sweetest pain
My armor is tarnished from tears cryed in vain
My sword is broken but not my will
I push onward my quest to fulfill
I wear my Queens colors upon my chest
My body is weak but I cannot rest
My soul struggles with my mind
Thoughts of all I've left behind
Minutes are ages and ages are fleeting
The noble heart knows no retreating
So I close my eyes
And continue dreaming

We've got a old love
We have ancient souls
We have lived and loved and lost
A thousand times before
A love born of the purest celestrial flame
Bright blue and searing
Heavans memories echo our names
We've got a old love
We have ancient souls
A love rooted in the heavans and cast by fate
Destined to live forever
Soul mates

A love so real, so true, my heart beats for you
A beauty that pumps through my viens
A smile that sustains me, a love thats changed me
My heart beats for you
The paths we take
The mistakes we make
My heart has beat for you
The dreams that wake us
The fear that shakes us
My heart has always beat for you
You are real, you do exist
Sad for the time we've missed
All the proof in just one kiss
No more time apart
I have found my love
and she is my heart

Through the catacombs of dark dreams I chase these screams
The cry's and tears of the innocent guide my path
Exhausted but never tiring in my quest
Bones snap and tendons tear
Emasculated the minions of this beast fall
These evil trolls that prey on mine
His arrows pierce my chest but not my soul
These wounds do not scar me
I wield my fathers blade with righteousness
I shield myself with my faith
His hatred sears like an unholy heat
My flesh torn and my blood spilled
One captive alone is worth this sacrifice
If this is thier ransom so be it
These tears cried blur my vision not my duty
He cowers behind those even weaker than himself
He shields himself with the children of my father
Forward son's of light Illuminate
If this be our last day our last fight
Let it be shouted denique caelum

Maybe I can pull it all together
maybe I can write something clever
maybe then you'll finally look my way
everything I've written I'll get the chance to say
look into those big green eyes and gaze
dig down deep and find the strength to say
everything I've written
day dreaming my pen moves across the page
every stroke paints the words I long to say
I've never known myself to feel this way
thoughts of you are filling up my day
while these words I write are filling up this page
looking at your smile I hear the melody
to everything I've written

A whole new world opens when I look through your eyes
You show me the beauty in a fleeting moment
I see now the hope in happily ever after
Two phoenix rising from the ashes of loves disasters
The hour glass of eternity stands still
As I chase your kiss's like butterflies through a field of heather
I have woke your love from its deep and dark slumber
You have given me the strength to pull the sword from the stone
You have clicked your heels together
you have called my heart your home
Your the needle in my hearts compass
Ever pointing me towards peace, comfort and love
We have been judged by Cupid and found worthy
Deserving of every blissful thing yearned for by our hearts
Triumphant over the doubt of ages
We stand hands and souls bound together
Smiling into the face of destiny

My heart beats the beat of a bodhran drum
This most divine mother has called me her son
She is calling me home with ancient voices
voices of mine that have gone before me
She draws me unto her as the clover draws the morning dew
My words are born of her beauty
This warrior maiden has cast the ashes of Rollo upon me
sustaining my courage and righteousness
She is the light and the love, the laughter and hope
in the souls of all she has bore
My emerald mother Ireland

She has found me
richer with word and thought in her praise
warmed by unseen gaze
stronger in my weakness for her
weaker in my doubts
healed in the sickness of my hope
blindly faithful to the course He has set.
