The Big Wave
Taz Apr 2018
Sitting on the board
anticipation gripping me
staring at the tiny waves before me
taking them easily
closing my eyes
I breathe
fingertips soaking beneathe
I breathe in the big wave
Opening my eyes to my surprise there she was
she was beautiful
gracefully slicing through the water to greet me
I kiss the wave with the nose of my board
she takes me up
I am having the ride of my life
the wave starts to curl and I dip down and rip under
splashing the water on both sides of me
the hole looks way too small to surf out
dipping lower I grip my toes
The wave closing in on me
Maybe she was too big for me
she quickly engulfs me
swallowing me whole
sending me crashing into the koral
pain searing through my body I reach the surface
the tiny waves now taking me back tumbling down
each blow sends me spiraling down
reaching the surface I take a huge breath of air
choking out water
reaching the sharp shore
crawling through the shells
grabbing the remains of my destroyed board

Twin Flame
Taz Apr 2020
Sun kissed skin
Honey brown eyes
This woman, I idolize
She is a wonderful surprise
Day in, day out
This angel,
Makes my heart beat out of my chest
She is nothing like the rest
Unique & sweet
Loving as can be
Like I said before, she is an angel I adore
In this world I could ask for nothing more
For her in my arms
My lucky charm
My other half, I may say
I cherish this woman every day
Intoxicating smile that catches you at hello
Her vibe keeps you feeling mellow
A kiss that sends chills down my body
A feeling I will always miss
A feeling that puts me at bliss
Her hugs so warm & safe
The sad world, is not so sad when she is in-front of me
In fact, the world absolutely disappears
Nor the good, the bad, or the in-between
Leaving two souls falling whole
Never wanting to let go
Hand in hand
Hearts in another
I fall for her everyday
Feeling like summer I may say
When her passionate side comes about
Almost every emotion I have screams out
****, yet lovely
Her intelligence is my key
A mind so beautiful, I am blessed to see
Fiery, fierce spirit
No other woman could even get near it
Determined to the bones
This woman feels like my home.

Momentarily Paralyzed.
Taz Aug 2018
Feeling down
Eyes glued to the ground
nothing can drain out that sound
in the back of my mind
all the time
tears come out
feeling momentarily paralyzed
fear coursing down
my spine
and mixed together with
adrenaline and bad nightmares
although the nightmares
were never just in my dreams
for I had already lived them through
reminding me night by night
this battle is a constant
fight
at war within
trying to fight something
I will never
win
or will I?
all I can say is I survived
yes, I am still alive.

Treasure.
Taz Jun 2018
Find someone to love that you treasure
Someone who makes you feel the weather
Touch the sand
Close your eyes and listen to the waves
Someone to hold you when you cry
Someone to be there when you want to just run away and hide
To kiss you and convince you it'll be alright
A treasured love
One like no other
Where the love is all around
One you can see
Doesn't need to be served with an
I love you
Simply just a shared glanced
That brings comfort and care
Shows that they are there
A delicate touch
That lingers
The small things mean everything
Bring her flowers and sing
Write her letters and take a knee
For she is everything to me
I will treasure her for eternity

Shedding out the old.
Taz Aug 2019
Like snakes shed old skin
We let go of the old
Let the new in
Change is crucial
You can’t live in last year
So why live in last years mind set?
I do what I do, I do it my best
Being broken is just a token
Live your life a little more cracked open
Let the light shine in
Let yourself never give in
Hope plus happiness is the combo to your own sensational success
With one life heart on our badge
We don’t have much time to make our mark
So waste no time to find you spark
Each and every one of you is a piece of art
Close your eyes to things that bring you down
Open them to things that bring you joy
your life is your own personal Rubix cube
Just remain steady, consistent and with the right attitude.

Internal negotiations
Go on and on in my subconscious
Feeling cautious
Dipping my toes
In all of the unknown
This is the year I left all my comfort zones
Although this does not make me feel alone
I create what I decide to call home
The gates of negativity closed without a plea
I am full of positivity
In every vein
Leading all the way up to my brain
I feel it’s time I let go of all my pain
Unsure of its coming
Could it be maturity?
Or maybe just better at seeing the world I see?
Either way I have learned leading up to this day
There is no reason to keep positive energy at bay
Negative energy is what fuels the dark society
That is not somewhere I would like to be
Head up high, dripping my hair in the clouds
I do nothing but smile and make the best of the most
Now living by the coast
I feel the ocean is my host
Everyday feeding my brain
To just sit on its sand and let the waves wash away the pain
Growing is about learning your pain
Then letting it go straight out of your brain
We seed our own manifestation
So with a little happiness
Everyday
We can all be at bliss
Be kind to all strangers
Especially those that look anxious
They are the ones the need it the most
No loved ones to keep them afloat
Tell them something to get them to smile
Then walk away your job is done
They will be happy for awhile
Life is about the little things
But not the ones most of us thinks
It’s about spreading the love
To whoever you may reach
Because one day we all will be in
Solemn  Peace
Hand in hand
Hearts in another
Everyone you see has a mother
With them or not
We all were born to do something great
And not be forgot
Let go of shame
Let go of pain
Let life take you for a ride
Just go where it wants you to fly
That’s where you will feel the most alive
Never able to feel the need to hide
Be the person you want on the inside
It’s up to you to be your own guide
Hold onto the dream you had as a child
Even Something as silly as
I wanted to do something wild
We are the creators of our on nature

A scarred love
Taz Dec 2018
A deep scar illuminated my heart
A ragged cut in the dark
She left me to bleed out
Lying limp on the ground
Nothing can drain out that sound
A broken record of doubt
The grand jury has made a decision
We are better off living separately
Even when it means no more you and me
My heart has cried more tears than you’ve tried
I loved you with everything I had inside
Never enough for someone so rough
Being with you was nothing but tough
Everyday made to believe I am weak
She drove me to the end of the street
Dropped me off
Left me to get home by feet
My shoes had holes where the feet has soles
She left me walking in the cold
I should have listened to what I was told
Stay single until you’re old
No one truly loves you until you’re gold
Living happy is living alone
You were never my home
You left me on my own
You never really cared for my soul
You wanted me to make you feel whole
Too bad I never wanted to you to fill my cup
Just be the one to hold me up
I hope you have a happy and fulfilling life
I always imagined one day you would be my wife
You weren’t the one for me
But inside you were always next to me
