Our memories

of hardships

and happiness

will be forever

alive in my poem.
Thank you friends. thank you. thank you so much for creating such memorable memories with me
I'm like the rocks we throw in the ocean
Down below away from the commotion
Steadily sinking deeper within the motion
The last person to touch you is long gone
and being at the bottom you may never be touched again but is that so wrong?
No more fear and no more guessing, trying to find the hidden meaning behind a blessin'
maybe its to learn a lesson while I could use a little decompression
these depths have got me going through retrogression
but what was I before i was too heavy to float?
All the words i wanted to say are stuck in my throat
and the only thing I can manage to say was "nice throw"
Why are you lonesome?
You seek, you welcome, you wait.
Many come and go.

Still you are lonely.
One wishes in. Your door is closed.
Open wide your heart.
I slowly dipped my toes in at first
Yes it took me a while
I shifted, sifted, pondered, waited & then
I decided to jump right in
It was time
I quit thinking it over
I stopped thinking the worst
I stopped waiting and wishing
I decided to jump head first
I told the world to smile,
and her corners barely creased
She said to get her good side,
and then she turned her back to me.
The melting sun was crying
And rolling tears into the sea
The shadow of her body
The whales eerie harmony.
If there comes a time
that you might lose me
Find me in my poetry
Yes, I wear a mask
Woven of fabric of falsity
Now drenched in agony
The mask of grief, pain and fear
But my calm face says ā€œIā€™m fine!ā€
I spend too many nights thinking
Wondering, writing, dreaming
Of someone who doesn't even think of me
