I love my family,
But,I miss my friends.

Corona Virus has its own story,
It doesn't give a dime who you are,
Whether you are a monarch,
A president,
A Prime Minister,
Or a Religious Leader,
Wealthy or pauper,
Brown,black, white or yellow.
It cannot be stymied, suppressed or controlled,
It is unbeatable and winning,
Only a vaccine can put a stop to this reality,
And we are left to negotiate the terms,
By being hygienic,
Sanitizing,
Social distancing,
And Lockdown.

As the dust begins to settle;
And night,
Falls.

As your green becomes your gray;
Your rooms,
Halls.

As your flame begins to flicker;
Helpless,
You crawl..

As your beginning becomes your end;
You search,
Recall...

My feet struck the earth
just as they did before.
I didn’t need to think -
rehearsed steps guided
my strides.

One foot in front of the other...
My soles tasted the concrete
with traction between lunges.

I was going places.
I was getting somewhere.

I wished I knew
where I was heading.

Don't pretend
that you were trying
to save me when
you were the one
who let me
drown.

You're nothing but a jester
exploiting me to win my crown.
Exploiting: To use (a situation or person) in an unfair or selfish way.

Your eyes tell a different story,
Like your mind in someone's memory,
But knowing that too I still like you,
Do you know why?
Because I want to.
Liking someone is a candle.
It can melt, burn out and you have no idea how long it can last...

I  woke this morning and felt so hurt

It is justice that I thirst

The pain and memories keep coming back

Why in court he got of the fact




The voices in my head of this dreadful day

Oh how I am still betrayed




My heart is heavy but my mind somewhat clear

At least now I can shed a tear

But I wish I could wave a magic wand

To take away the memory and pain and have it gone




The shame and torment would leave me alone

I'd be free in my home

Music would be a closer friend

And peace and love I could give again

You may find me
When you aren't striving
You may know me
When you aren't driving
You may love me
When you are least trying
A message from God to man
#Let go and let God
