Deborah

you never called
to say goodbye

i often asked
and wondered why

my tears they flowed
for you each night

you didn't care
we didn't fight

six months later
i got a call

it didn't work
after all

you wanted back
you couldn't wait

i told the truth
for it's to late

fifteen years we had together
had so much time
and stuff we weathered

now your gone
but not forgot

iv'e started over
wish me luck

hold your next man
close enough

you learned your lesson
i know it's tough

it's such a shame
i feel bad

many pet names
i had for you
your favorite one
was bunny blue

i cried for you
theres no tears left

i do still love you
very much
try to keep
in better touch

i miss your eyes
that pretty blue
the compliments you got
were true

i cannot see you
it hurts to much
next time don't be
in such a rush

dedicated to you bunny blue......

sunshine maybe not

you were born from me
you live with me
every night

some times i scare you
and give you fright

sometimes your lost
inside me

at times
i will take over you thoughts
and destroy your mind

there are times you hide beside me
often you want to escape me

sometimes i hide within your shadow
i will eclipse the sun

and when it's time
for you to die
you will return to me

I am the dark...

name this for me

I'm only happy in the dark
so you can't see my expression
so you can't feel my depression
I'm only happy in the dark

someday the dark will subside
my happiness will return
and again i will
shine

then i will be happy
in the sun

I am (your soul)

I am the air you breath
out of your lungs
I am the warmth you feel
from the sun
I am all your emotions
wrapped in one
I tried to sooth
when you were young and crying
i am certainly there
when you feel like dying
I pick you up
when you fall down
I am always here
always around
I am here for you
when you are blue
always here
to comfort you
I am here for you
when your in trouble
without hesitation
on the double
I am the blood
within your veins
I pump your heart
and ease your pain
I help you along
when you are old
I warm you up
when you are cold
I make you strong
I make you bold
I try to do
what i am told
I hear you
when you speak my name
I always try to take your blame
I love your body
like my own
i like to call it
as my home
I work for god
and only you
i won't deny this fact is true
I am by your side
until you die
then it's time
to say good bye
I was your soul
but now i'm gone
you and i
we must move on

The torso

while out in the woods
hunting one day
a lump of flesh...lay in my way

maggot infested..from months in the shade
this pile before me ....was rot and decay

i could not think....of nothing to say
so i knelt to the ground
and started to pray

i should of run
but my mind said to stay
the stench was so bad
even the rats kept away

you see many things in the woods during may
but nothing like what lies at my feet....i do say

i wondered who this used to be
there was not much left
you could clearly see

there won't be anymore hunting for me
you'll find me at home
in front of t.v

Why i (try to) write

i need a new pad
this one is through
my typing is terrible
poor me
boo hoo

the data bank..thats in my head
is full of ****
you have not read

the work i have
you can't make up
even though
it mostly *****

six rhymes a night
i beg contrite
two of them trending
outta sight

more stuff will come
from every night
and i just joined monday
on this site

odes and tributes
i do like
some days it's strictly fright i write

a small collection...of Seuss type rhymes
is my goal...just give me time

i admire the man as you can tell
the problem is...my stuff won't sell

unlike Seuss..he is the master
most my stuff
becomes disaster

children's book's i have in mind
but better than old nursery rhymes

no matter what you think of me
my rhymes are singing out to thee

people have told me..to use big words
but Seuss made up his own
as you probably heard

stick around ..and watch me grow
someday i'll be a name you know

your smiling now...i knew you would
this rhyme might be a little good

the visit

it's midnight
there's a knock at the door
as always
there's no warning at all

i'm not answering it
i know who it is

he's been here before
then the bright light brought me out of it
he's back
more persistent than ever

another knock
harder
much louder

im not gonna answer
leave me alone
it's not yet my time to go home

wheres the light that saved me
the first time round

i'm waiting
no light

its time to give in
it's time for him
to process all my worldly sins

the man upstairs
has punched my ticket
theres no recourse

i caught a break first time round
this time it's over
i have been found

the man at the door
without voice or face
is here to give the world more space

he's here to collect my soul
the reaper himself ..
who prays on the weak..the sickly the old....
