ACROSS THE WATERFALL
preservationman Nov 2023
Not an actual waterfall
Tears like Niagara
Disturbances from the heart
Deep emotions
Storms within no control
Worrying and anguished
Trapped between closing walls
Moments feeling like days, hours, weeks and minutes
Not precious
Time that is closing in
Sustaining to a quick
Nowhere to turn
A step back instead of forward
A happening
Courage on fear
Having no one near
One day
There will be an overcome
Survival thought
Whether or whitter
Waterfall spring
Tears being the thing

DRAMATIC SYRUP
preservationman Nov 2023
Darkness surrounds
Mysterious effect
Uncertain unspeakable
Alone and unbarring
More than a season watch
Coldness within
Suspense
Anger full of tears and frustration
Strength has no muster
Gestures no more
No understanding
Eyes seeing nothing
Walked into my own doubt
Expel shout
Lasting pause
Cold heart the cause
Living with no worth
A cloud is a curse
Until into never
Life below and above
Lived and died

PEOPLE TIME
preservationman Nov 2023
People today say they don’t care
Forms beware
They show no interest nor concern
People phrase
Darkened in haze
People amaze
Phony people from the very start
Formulates a depart
Don’t need in one’s life
That is my best advice
True friends don’t put you down
They shouldn’t be found
Friends bring laughter and fun
Surround being among
Pretending friends is out
Think about that as your moving about
Continuous life throughout
The don’t care will have a change
Revelation will arrange

FROM THE VALLEY BELOW
preservationman Nov 2023
Hi up there in the surface
This is the valley below
How did you reach the surface?
Determination would have to be obvious
It took everything you had in endurance
Your own inspiration was the influence
A desire you knew you had to fulfill
It took a strong will
Perhaps even a sleeping pill
For courage you see
Valleys sometimes people never get out
Figure that one as you are moving about
Purpose must sit in
That is surfacing begins
No cultivate
Reality in relate
Valleys are circumstances being hard knock challengers
Valleys made you ready
Understanding that held steady
No time to fail
Just a smooth surface sail
Valleys are what start the trail
One becomes prepared with a strategy
Valleys out and surfaces in

You in the uniform

Holding steady
Enemy lookout
Always a Veteran
At your best
True Veteran
The only that can contest
Doesn’t matter past nor current
Standing tall
Conquered all
Happy Veteran’s Day the call

I KNOW
preservationman Nov 2023
You made wrong decisions in your life
Do you understand in reasoning?
You thought you didn’t need advice
It is now a regret
Life experiences becomes a lesson of pitfalls to avoid
Have you truly learned?
You saw your mirror reflection
Did you see what needs to be changed?
You saw the beauty of you, but does your personality match up
Knowledge is the key to success
Do you believe in yourself in what you can do in achieving through efforts
You keep saying you know
Does understanding ring a bell in your mind?
Life is what a person makes it
It’s not complaining and doubt
Thinking of resolution in how uncertainty will be worked out

BIG MOUTH
preservationman Oct 2023
You spoke
But told a lie
You couldn’t keep your mouth shut
The words were always but
You couldn’t look into eye to eye
There was always a why
Your tongue gave you away
You do this everyday
You speak, but no truth
This is since your youth
What one does is
Your mouth is out of control
You need to know in how to take hold
Straight out twisted
Just like noodles
Many directions having no destinations of logic
No specific understanding
Where thought and gesture flow
That’s how people will know
It’s a proven show
Putting your mouth in the know.

THE DEAD SHALL RISE

October 30 Midnight
One by one from all graves will rise
Spirits will roam the streets
Flesh will be their avenues
Stars will hide and not twinkle
Blood ******* craves
No time to act brave

There will be knocks at all doors
Dare not open
You have been warned
Death will come to living life
Take heed to the advice
Screams will be censored
Time will accelerate even faster with no reverse
Souls will walk and stalk
The Moon will smarter and disappear
Thrills and chills
Your body will feel uneasy and eerie
Temperatures will rise
Fright through the night
If you survive
Moments upon moments
No pause
You try to run
You get nowhere
Time is not your side
Tormented
Souls get what they want
It’s the human flesh regret
Dare to cross
Entered everlasting
Last breath
No chance
No escape
Death be upon you
Your grave is ready
Buried until

Mother why?
You abused me with your mouth
Didn’t you realize what would come out
You said you never wanted me
That was love I didn’t see
You stated you would have had an abortion on it
That tells me I wasn’t fit to live
You had no love to give
I used to cry many days and nights
My cries were hope in that you would change
There was no rearrange
No appreciation whatsoever
You are at a distance
You say Mother
I was raised by another
My Grandparents
They gave me the love and nurture
Kodak moment in my mind and heart
Love being something you never could
Didn’t even bother to try
You saw me as an ugly duckling
An outcast with no purpose
Your reasoning unsure
I became Heaven’s survival see
You smoked while carrying me
Death was on your mind
I am no longer bitter
You thought of me as litter
My Grandparents are proud in the person I became
All I can say it is a shame
Why couldn’t you feel the same?
Totally lame
My Grandparents will always look down on me from Heaven
They will always say, “We raised you well”
I have no love for you Mother
Only respect
Aftermath wanted to beat me down
But I am still around
You can’t have my heart
Moved on with no regret
You had that much effect
I am mature and on my own
This is how I felt

AS THE STORY TURNS
preservationman Oct 2023
You said you were going out for cigarettes, and would be right back
Hours and days passed
There was no sign of you
No phone call nor letter
That was an indication that you were cheating
A woman called and said I have your man
He doesn’t love you anymore
I found a Greyhound Bus Schedule with a departure checked off
The destination was Los Angeles, California
There was no love in our marriage the whole time we were together
We never really talked
We had nothing in common
Our entire life was nothing but lies
I found me someone who loves me
Before I wanted to confront you
I thought beware
I just didn’t care
You were like out dated shoes with no sole whatsoever
I actually told your woman that she could keep you as he was no longer needed
I can pursue a new life
We both did best that was for all of us
Our marriage had no try
I am not going to cry
No need to ask why?
All I can say is goodbye

I am a ship out in the ocean in never reaching the shore
My mind on me
Let the sunrise carry me to new journey’s
Explore what my heart deserves
Turn days into moments
My virtues have meanings
They were walked on and blown away
Felt like I didn’t belong
Wrong place always at the wrong time
Standing on the shore with so much uncertainty
Doubt set in
My assurance had no endurance
But no more
I see a better life
Full of promise
True honest
I always knew who I was
It was expressed so
No although
I am a person of prosperity
My reality
Negativity voices have loss
I am the force that rules
Can’t and won’t stop

preservationman Oct 2023
You left me and it became my loss
Higher calling
My heart mourns
My cries daily
You soared to a new world
I couldn’t respond
Beyond my ridges
I will always remember our talks and walks on the beach in the sunrise and sunset
Your inspiration in always reach
Let love enter in
That’s where romance begins
Enriched my life
Thanks for the advice
A memorable of everything nice
I say until then
Friend
I am not at my end
My heart will always transcend
Sincerely yours,
Grateful

CIRCUMSTANCE TO ADVANCE
preservationman Oct 2023
In the middle
Surrounded by a struggle
Trying to figure out
A challenge
A battle
Will I win
Total fight
Can’t give up
Must be determined
Searching for resolution
All I see is conclusions
Perhaps fear within my own illusions
Trapped in a center circle
Decisions in directions to make
Mistakes made
Loss, but still can be found
Swirl Swirl Swirl
Constant
Continuous
Just makes me furious
I need these circumstances to stop
I need to reach the top
Maybe I don’t how
That is the reaction now
Circumstance
My glance
Uncertain
Less confident
Yet I know somewhere there is a way out
As I move about
I might be corned now
All a test
Life showing me confess
It is fear
I must think courage
Expectations
Me
Command
Demand
Excel
Expel
Circumstance over
My discovery
Just take charge

How would I be remembered?
I hope words of truth and not assumptions
How my words inspired you
Don’t give up but fulfill
My years of writing in being who I am and was
My involvement of buses
Lifelong dream remained a reality
My connection always to the Almighty
Every smile through pain
My every detour was assurance in getting to my destiny faster
Positive thoughts through my encouraging speeches
It doesn’t matter the person
Inspiring others
Standing strong on Faith through and through
Every day was my own pursue
When time gets tough, just challenge time in knowing you can win
Make it worthwhile and proven
Let the big E be big in your efforts
Stand proud on what you have accomplished and established
If friends and family walk away, stand alone and hold up your head high with dignity
Appreciate who you are
The mirror sees the outer body, but it is the inner self that counts
Become unstoppable being determined in life
No one can break down destined, but expect a try
You will have your moments in a cry
Take a quick pause and think on you have no time to cry, but have every reason to maneuver
Preparation is the key
Take it from me
Your days will mount to many tomorrow’s
Always reach and always expect more
This is now I want to be remembered
My days as I slumber
Living soul with a blessed life
Soaring beyond
Everlasting at last

BULLIED JOUR
preservationman Oct 2023
Beat down, but still around
My school days
Kicked and punched
All at once
Wounds with scars
Called out many times not my name
Totally lame
Tormented
I was saw as weak
Being easy to defeat
I deserved to be picked on
People’s wishes
I tried to remain strong
I even tried to get along
The bullies weren’t going to have it
I had to fight to survive
It was all in my stride
Reasoning definitely didn’t work
It took all of my Faith to win
Suddenly the bullying came to an end
Overcame
Fulfilled
Destined
I proved unstoppable
Unbreakable
Victory
My story
Defined glory

BEYOND HUMAN EYES
preservationman Oct 2023
Journey in the far distance
Quick in the instance
A place of peace
The calm atmosphere
Beyond space
Everlasting
Tomorrow’s beginning
Soul’s roam
Yet never alone
Human eyes cannot see
Soul’s vision on target
Spiritual wise
It came as no surprise
Blessed to be
This is something to see
Where am I?
It’s called Heaven
Chosen blessing
Beyond Earth eyes
Had to emphasize
