You course through my veins and meet my head in disharmony.   Uninvited but tolerated . No longer reviled,   I speak to you from rehearsed scripts til you linger no more.
Feelings that I don't get along with and Coping that  is a learned through many hardships.  I find #peace from the #Holy Spiri

What is a poet to do
when his favourite muse
faints whilst making love,
a victim of passions fuse.

To carry on regardless?
Perhaps slap her lovely cheek?
Mouth 2 mouth no tongue?
Or maybe implore her to speak?

A lesser poet
shakes her anxiously
and writes a verse about prowess and spooning.

A True poet
carries on regardless
and writes a sonnet about his muse and swooning.

Forgettable
Soft harmonics
Pure and melodic
Dancing through the air like a feather encouraged by the summer breeze

Unfathomable, how my name could sound so sweet.

Poetry
to me
is taking
my pain
and making
it sing.

Seemed like we stood a chance
But then you turned to stone
Again

Your hand still extended out
And when it began to crumble
I couldn't look away
Again

"Ya'll" You ask,      "get it done?"                                                           ­       There is no "ya'll,                                                          ­                           for I am one.                                                             ­                            
 The other in ya'll is supposed to be.                                  
     someone else and not   Just me.                                                      In this life I've learned you see,                                                     many Willing people drop out                                                 
     leaving ya'll to be just me.                                                              ­     It's still to do and no one can see.                                                       I'll do it with my God and Me
O once read that there are many willing people in this world those who are willing to work and those who are willing to let you do it. I stop being disappointed when people say they're going to do something and don't do it or follow through. People will let you down but God will never.
