Insomnia

In biting bitterness, in splitting
Spleen. Swinging like a shuttlecock,
Back and forth, upon a furry hammock:
Visited by horror dreams, scaring
Vision. Insomnia is torture!
And the rooster hath a line drawn
Against the dallying, dragging dawn.

Thrown Over

Remov'd, affection horn . . .
heavy flood of tears flowing--
blood emotional's gushing
out from a heart broken.

DO Y O U ?

Do
you like me
after a hard day at work
while you are relaxing at home
find like me

Y
you can not sleep at night

O
omit what you should have done that night

U
use that time for yourself

?

This is odd to me, for Paul met his lord.

Now this fine day
Paul would met his lord

and this is odd to me
for I have no lord unto this day
but Paul met his lord

He said to me
Paul what have you done

and unto GOD
did say
O sweat lord you know all so!

please tell me what did I do today
as you take me away.

Nil by mouth.

This is what it is
as I hear the sounds
as I drift around somewhere in the background
I still can hear those words so clear
but for the life of me
I find it hard to clarify them
what did I hear again
there they go again
and what does that mean
I think they say

NIL BY MOUTH.

Unworthiness

Why art thou staying still my breath,
Who suppose to have long perished?
Why dost thou count me amongst
The living, that ought to have vanished?

To life am I not entitled for many
A reason--am unworthy of being;
Yet with thy strong arm of grace
Hast thou been blessing me, O heaven.

Burning for You

On the altar of even and morn
My fairest love for thee I burn--
The incense of mine heart,
That the frankincense's flame
May consume you whole, dame.

Saved

Took I the heavy sack of my sin
And dragged it into the sea
Of salvation--watched it drowning
To the bed of grace and mercy.

Me being silly.

A cloud past by me today
then a short time after that, one other
on looking up
I spotted yet a another
might me just being silly
but clouds and yes I am shouting up at you
for clouds I know not what I have done to you
but each day you pass me by
or is that mind within my head
just being silly, and what did I do with my pills.

I think at work I have to much time on my hands

:-) P@ul ***.

Numb

I threw myself up against the wall
Because I needed to feel something.
I squeezed my eyes shut tight
                    Because
                      I needed your fingers in my hair,
          The weight of your thighs
                       On mine,
The tip of my minty tongue on your lip.
The quivering of your core and your breath
                        Tangled with my own
When I speak to you without words
and without sounds.
Because I needed
*To just feel.

LDR life.

Sound Of Rain

Your Laughter

My words disappear and my mind goes blank when I hear the sound of your laughter.
It's just like music to my ears, and I never realized just how beautiful it is,
Until the other day, when you laughed from so far away, yet I heard you in my room.
It made me smile and warmed up my heart, and I almost felt like Summer was here.

Cause
        that's
               just
                        how
    :)                          beautiful
                        your
               laughter
    really
is.
.

P.S. Summer is my favorite season.

Helpmeet

A grave man needs a wife
With whom to share his life--
Wise, warm and straight spouse
To keep and tend his house,
Both making a merry home
Until the Lord's kingdom come.
