A flower

You are a flower
Far too beautiful for me to pluck
I will come to your site everyday
Just to adore your sight
I'll leave you in your natural habitat
I cherish you
But I won't be selfish
I'll leave you for others to behold also
Utmostly, I want what's best for you
When you cherish something, don't destroy it in an attempt to make it yours!
Change in my pocket
That’s all I have left
I was once a proud man
Now I’m flirting with death
Broke to my bones
To my innermost core
I hate what I’ve seen
Just can’t wait to see more
But whatever it is, that God has in store
No devil nor angel’s going to walk through that door

"daddy's dying",
what did he mean?
daddies don't die!
don't be obscene

i looked at my father
so thin and so drawn
but he smiled with laughter
eyes like the dawn

but the dawn never came
for those smiling eyes
as G-d came to claim
his soul for the skies

we seldom appreciate
what we have or we own
until it's too late
and we're left all alone

and the world will continue to turn

and know its alright

You
You help me see who I am,
Better than anyone else can.
You help me understand
What it means to be a man.
You turn my head to the stars,
And tell me that my dreams aren't that far.
You are amazing in every way.
And that's why I love
You.

Peasant The Poet
Early in the morning,
Laying in bed,
light washing over me,
thoughts floating in my head.

Wondering what it’d be like,
Doubt seeps like morning glow.
What could I say to him?
What might he never know?

When the Pastor said; "only death shall put lovers apart", he walked out on Christianity.

For his love stretched from hell and back, and further into before this life.

I saw him pick poetry for good.

A religion were lovers never part, for death is an illusion and wedding rings still scream meaning in graves and tombs!
