The pain never goes away
How can it when you were one so dear
It has been decades, still I think of you daily, still wish you near
I still hear your voice, even though it's sound is diminished in its tenor
I still feel your hands upon mine
soft as ever

You came to me three nights after you left
In a dream it was, I'll never forget
There was I sitting in a chair,
people surrounding me, but none knew I was there
I stood to speak to those with whom were in the room
None could see me, none heard my words
Then you appeared, healthy and full of life
You spoke to me as though in life
You told me to not fear and that all would be well
You were happy now, no longer ill.
You told me then to wake and no longer be sad
You said one day we'd see each other
One day again

You haven't come to me since that dream
I wonder why it is
I miss you so much brother dear
I have so much to tell
I love you still and my heart still hurts
Though the scars hide it well
I lost my oldest brother to lung cancer 16 years ago. I didn't mourn him until 5 years ago. This is the first I've ever wrote of him. He's been on my mind a lot more lately. I guess it was time. I love you Gordon. May the angels and God still keep you.

Teenage Mess
As a kid your parents always tell you not to go in the deep end till you can swim.
But not mine, she threw me in, told me sink or swim.
Oh how I sank like a 90 pound rock.
Oh how I hit the bottom with bone breaking force.
Oh how I tried to scream but was welcomed with lungs full of water.
Oh how she turned her back, to busy to care.

I died that day, the thing that swam up was in fact not me, she began to welcome it with open arms...

Till she shoved it back down too,

Mind
Soul
Body
All colliding into one.
Mingling together,
Keeping the flame of lust burning as bright as the mid-noon sun.
Cool breath fanning over burning skin.
The love they feel never wearing thin.
Wrapped safely in her lovers arms feeling far, far away from any harm.
Drop your Grudge Rants
by the door
We Will Not Tolarate
This Anymore

Edit and toss Distasteful Rhymes
Ugly Poems with Vain designs

Haughty thoughts and
bitter words
Childish petty accusing verbs

Who did What to Who and When
Will this Clusterfuck never end?

Selfish actions, Spoiled Children
We Refuse to be your Minions

Like CNN
And Drone Fox news

We've had enough of
Self Serving views

Hurting hearts, far and wide
tender Poets with
tenuous pride

Yet, Strutting and Indignant
for who I ask?
All those involved,
A Donkeys ***

Not a home for
Egotistical Zealots
Nor a place for
flinging pellets

We come in Peace, HP to share
Not get caught in ugly snares

And to the few that
have the gaul.

"If you have nothing decent to say,
say nothing at all"

YOU CHOOSE TO USE
HP THIS WAY.
GO AWAY. FIND SOME
WHERE ELSE TO PLAY.

degrading Rant Writes
against other Poets.
SERIOUSLY. . Come on.. REALLY???????
