They ask me about my poetry
Done with ease
So easily
Like stars align; astrology
Coded into chemistry
It's basically
Biology
Like a limb;
A part of me
Crackling with energy
Electrical and synergy
Working together like a team
My heart and mind combined
To find that sign, in time
Make poetry!

i was going to therapy
but all it did was make me angry
because thats what happens when you are depressed and filled with anxiety.

the feelings overwhelm the brain,
making it hard to make sense of anything,
as you get beat up in the metaphorical boxing ring.

taking swings left and right,
you can’t put up much of a fight
against the feelings of complete fright.

tired and hopeless,
you begin to give in,
pleading with your thoughts to just take the win.
Do you see the red rose?
Surrounded by trees and rivers,
Its beauty as a city on a hill,
The sun has given it, its light.
-Elijah Rose ©
Im the Red Rose and Jesus is the Sun that gave Me my Light.
I feel the cold of the morning
And I know of your heart's longing

You wanna roll with me?
For that's fine by me

How about we do this all day
Forgetting woes of your yesterday

Drying wounds and tears
Far away from your fears

Making love under the rain,
To ease your soul's pain

For sometimes life is happiness,
Even within one's weakness

That in the arms of a darling
forever is never changing

I hid within my shadow world
And held my breath too long
These holes within are empty parts
Where your memories belong

I saw you in the distance
I know you saw me too
I turned my head and walked away
I think I'm turning blue

Life can be so dysfunctional at times
Even for the simple Traveler.
Like Ludwig van Beethoven
Close
Your
Eyes
Open
Your
Mind
Listen
With
Your
Intellect
Beethoven

He
Was
Deaf
But .....
In
Silence
There
Is
Eloquence
Stay
There

There's a guy in my life who I adore,
As a friend,
As a brother,
But nothing more.

No romantic feelings lie between us,
And that's okay.
To be honest,
We prefer it this way.

He is beautiful,
A true best friend.
We have a lot of good times,
I'll love him 'til the end.

In my heart rest our memories,
Of us walking,
Making big bonfires,
Or staying up all night talking.

I'll never forget our cat,
Gilligan.
But I cannot wait
Until we see him again.

For I'm proud to call him my family,
My brother,
And I know,
We'll always be here for each other.
I love you!
