of being
of
a lover,

Hope,

overwhelmed

for Christ's
sake be
honest
with

you're not
fooling

yourself.

We all struggle with variations of the word struggle.

Don't ever feel like you are alone, because you aren't.

Strength is built upon our struggles.

Callous strength eventually heals over our open wounds and scars.

We begin standing upon a foundation of strength in understanding.

A strength in understanding that life's clock is the slickest thief we will ever meet.

A strength in understanding that life's clock is also our heart's greatest healer.

if i allowed you to pick a color that represented the word LOVE,

what color would it be?

would it be black that represents the darkness and emptiness you feel?

would it be yellow that represents the sun and the happiness that you feel?

would it be green that represents your envy of the love that you feel that you have been cheated out of?

would it be blue because that represents how deeply you can love like that of the deepest ocean?

would it be purple like the rain that falls while listening to dove's cry.

would it be white because you feel it represents how pure your love can be seen, in any light?

would it be brown because you feel its as rich as God's abundant earth and soil?

would it be grey because you feel it's like a sky preparing itself for the next storm?

or would it be red because you feel that your heart always leads the way?

what color is love for you?

i'm

poets

    are not

that

call us;

     -odd
      -eccentric
        -weird
       -bipolar
        or strange.

we poets

     love whom
       we are

and we have

    absolutely
  
       no desire

         to change.

   we are artists

      with words...

in case you

      haven't heard.

  misunderstanding  us

       is something

       we're

          used to.

    we'll always

be outsiders;

    it's just

     what

         we do.

we are

     comfortable
there,

   we are loners

       it's true.

      we write
for ourselves...

    we don't write

Life.

Second to second it's a mystery.

A secret garden of roses at times.

A highway to hell in others.

Strangers that are strange.

Friends and family even stranger and more obscure.

Faces that disappear into the quicksand.

Marionetted Pinocchio's lies, their truth.

A cardboard box, the homeless.

Passers by act as if they are invisible.

Carnage of war, parent's and children's bloodshed.

Peace, a thing that will never be.

So what's it all about?

These "lessons" we are allegedly... supposedly... to learn from.

Even that garden of roses has thorns.

When "it's over" is it over?

Do I waft around aimlessly some misty foggy figure?

Do I decompose and fertilize the land?

Is there a purpose for me sitting in this chair?

Is there a purpose for me writing this piece?

Smile to frown takes but a split second.

Reality is I am but mere dust in the wind.

Reality is that bed of roses has been over watered by tears and the sadness of which is called "life".

I'm here right now, today for some purpose?

Perhaps my purpose runs out today, who is to say?

It's deeper than the deepest ocean.

This is not for the surface thinker.

The bowl of cherries thinker, the life is but a dream sweetheart thinker.

I'm the heavy guy on that see saw right now.

pagans are
heathens,
witches.

pagan
means villager, rustic,
civilian,
and itself
comes from a pāgus which refers to
a small unit
of land
in a
rural district.
it was a demeaning
latin term
that originally lacked a
religious significance.

wicca is a
movement
of pagans
that is
part of the occultist stream
of western esotericism.

they
don't believe
in religion,
they worship more than
one god,
they don't
believe in
our God.

pagans,
believe
in the
divine character of the natural world and paganism
is often
described
as an
earth
religion.

pagans
worship
the divine
couple in
wicca,
with the
lady as diana,
the
moon goddess, and the
lord as pan,
the horned god
of the
wild earth
while the
lower figure is mercury or hermes,
the god
or divine force
of magic - as shown by his wings and caduceus.

pagans can
be pagans
but,

pagans
are no friends
of mine.

Lament not the drops of falling rain
Harvest your garden once the storm wanes

Cast aside your umbrella to indulge in some fun
Dancing in puddles as clouds break for the sun

Storms have a purpose to ravage, to grow
Even after darkness, there's  beauty to show

Don't hide in fear of the ebon clouds en masse
Look beneath your feet....
they eventually bring you
green grass

i say you're not you
when you wear makeup
because you spend
so much time
in that mirror
making yourself
look like a rose....

well...

when i fell in love
with you
it was with your roots
the roots that are you
not the paint you use to cover
who i fell in love with,
the one i awaken to
in those early mornings
unpainted,
just naked.

and...

your beauty goes deeper!

the superficial you
leaves me wanting your roots,
the roots i want to water forever
the you in the mirror
was not what attracted me.

the you deep inside
is all you need to be,
you're already a rose
without all of that
paint on
your face.

your roots
are breath taking

your roots have
always left me
satisfied
your roots are
an aphrodisiac
to endless
intimacy.

always been more

Your teddy of white soft **** silk and lace,
covering your sweaty body in all the right places.
A soft kiss and a nibble on the nape of your neck,
south down your body slowly, a methodical pace.
Your inner thighs as hot as a melting ice cream cone,
I lick and I lick , fever pitched breathing , my shoulders you brace,
I make my way by the silk and the lace,
like candy from heaven, sweetness is all that I taste.
Legs draped over each one of my shoulders,
the summit is near , oh that look on your face.
The ceiling fan on high over a bed of sweat filled sheets,
cooling their bodies as if in a race.

The bond.
The tightness.
I touch the number one.
The unforgetting.
The initial clumsiness.
I touch the number 3
The you.
The me.
The small talk of weather,
what makes me a man,
and you a Godess.
I touch the number five.
The dripping euphoria of playful intimate chatter.
The moment I saw those curvy hips swaying to song I hold dear.
The secured hours together I only deliciously imagined your ******* captive by my hands, my mouth wantingly, lustfully agape for your hardened *******.
The days I seduced ALL of you , your lips quivering... climatically speechless....
I touch the number one.

And ohhh...

That look in your eyes.
The look of those eyes giving in to passion, falling off to every angle, back of the head , catatonic.
The moment you realize this feels a lot like paradise and your world seems a bit like a perfectly fitting glove...., a bit in your face.......you breathe deep and know the hands that now sculpt and massage every curve of your aching wanting body wish to make you quiver till the first of never.
I touch the number one.
The chaos is lived within a ******.
The ****** you and I and the nosy neighbors for that matter, will not soon forget.
I touch the number one again and again and again.
The neighbors open their windows further...

Over thinking life
can leave you sinking.
This started as 10 words

Losing sleep over
the day that's been.
Instead of looking to tomorrow
and what's yet to be seen.

Dwelling on something
someone MAY have said,
when you could be sleeping
in comfort in your bed.

Drinking to excess
over matters of no control.
Or turning silver haired
for not reaching a goal.

We're not all entrepreneurs
or a self made millionaire.
Look at President Trump,
who'd want his hair?

Try living each day
like a fresh start.
Sure, it may end like crap
but listen to your heart.

Celebrate your uniqueness.
Let off a bit of steam
at the end of each day.
Think positive and, dare to dream.
