Be One

The world is full
Of nice people,
If you cannot find one,
Be One

Beware The Amanita

     She was a dream, eyes of emerald green
Sitting beneath the Manzanita
Beautiful from head to toe
I think her name was Rosita

He was about to get lost in the forest of love
He caught her out of the corner of his eye
And if you could turn back the hands of
Time he would have passed her by

It was the ingredients for a perfect storm
See the lightning and hear the thunder
She inherited powers from the shadows
He was trapped in the spell he was under

Now he’ll never be able to escape
His new world where evil reigns
Her bite was of poison
And it’s running through his veins

Her perfume was like that of the
Sweet smell of Carnitas
And it warns if you walk in the forest
Of love, Beware the Amanita

Bipolar

  Everything is wonderful, everything *****
Bipolar, Bipolar, Bipolar
I’m so very happy, I’m so very sad
This is the flipping of the mind controller

I love you, I hate you
There’s Sunshine and rain
How does this happen in an instant
There’s joy and then there’s pain

I want to live, I want to die
There’s no in between
You know it’s not my fault
Sorry you’re witness to this ****** scene

I know you just saw me full of life
But now I’m on the edge of death
Saved by the Paramedics
So it wasn’t my final breath

As long as I take my medication
I don’t have to ride that life Rollercoaster
But it’s a true struggle of strong personalities when you’re Bipolar

Black & White

  Their love is youthful and beautiful
He makes her smile with just a glance
He’s so happy to have someone love him
Something more than a lustily romance

The planets were all aligned
The day they caught each other’s eye
A match made in Heaven so glorious
It even made the Devil cry

Everything about it was so picturesque
Butterflies spreading their wings to the wind
A storybook love we all dream about
Every word written would trend

A colorful rainbow and white puffy clouds
The Sun shining through so bright
Darkness never fell upon them except
The natural of the night

As they grew older and their hair
Turned grey,  it was as from the start
Their love for each other was held
Firmly deep down in their heart

They loved each other with every ounce
Of their being, such a majestical sight
They died together and all that’s left is
The memories in pictures of black & white

Black & White

    Once not so very long ago
When life was in a simpler time
Parents taught their children well
And there was reason in the rhyme

Morals and manners and common courtesy
To treat others with kindness and respect
But now generations later its something
That’s succumb to great neglect

Parents stopped parenting and tried
To be their children’s best friend
The word no started to be challenged
Parents caved so friendships wouldn’t end

Now the world is crying out loud
This incredible sad sad song
No one wants to acknowledge that
We were incredibly so so wrong

Now there’s no truth because the truth
Is lost in the vast universe of lies
The children have their participation
Trophies and we feel so proud and wise

But boys are wearing dresses and girls
Are covering their beauty with tattoos
And they’re wearing combat boots
As we’re all being fed one set of views

There’s chaos and confusion we’re lost
In the mist of grays with no wrong or right
The foundation has crumbled and blurred
Has become the clearness of Black & White

Black Widow

    You know it’s hard for me
To see the truth in your eyes
When you’ve spent so many years
Spinning out your web of lies

I thought that you loved me, you
Kept your true feelings well in disguise
I was just your back up lover
When there were no other guys

You captured me and took a swift bite
I was just another delicious find
You wrapped yourself around my heart
And refused to unwind

You took what you wanted
Like a viscous ****** violator
And you would set me aside
So you could save me for later

I was lost in a cloud of deception
My eyes were in a hypnotic glaze
I was trapped in a trance
Of your poisonous haze

When I saw through the charade you
Left me and nightly tears stain my pillow
After the mating you devoured me
Like the deadly Black Widow

Blinded

     I’m just taking a walk through life
Can’t bring myself to believe the nothing
The theory that nothing thought of everything no it had to be something

Don’t let yourself be blinded
Blinded by Science, blinded by evil eyes
Don’t let yourself be blinded
Blinded by Media, blinded by lies

Take the time to stop and smell the roses
Enjoy every Creation that you see
Take the time to realize that it didn’t
Come from nothing and it was meant to be

Don’t let yourself be blinded
Blinded by ignorance, blinded by fools
Don’t let yourself be blinded
Blinded by leaders, blinded by schools

Don’t you fall into their trap
They are so corrupt and Evil minded
Open your heart and eyes to see the
Truth and don’t let yourself be Blinded

Breaks My Heart

     You know my heart breaks
For the mentally afflicted
And when I see so many lives destroyed
When they are substance addicted

And my heart breaks
When it seems there’s no one to care
And when I see the handicapped
Confined to a chair

And my heart breaks
When I see the children cry
And when I try to comfort them
But I don’t have the answers why

You know my heart breaks
When I see that our leaders let us down
And when I see my beautiful world
With so much litter on the ground

And my heart breaks
When I see our veterans treated so poor
And when I wonder if humanity
Was even worth fighting for

And my heart breaks
When I see the homeless on the street
And when with War tell me who has won
The data will always be incomplete

And my heart breaks
When I see young love fall apart
And when I have the knowledge of it all
You know it Breaks My Heart

Broken

   My tears they flow
Like rain from the sky
My thoughts, from here, where do we go
So many questions why

The world in despair
The future no longer bright
Are we beyond repair
Forever locked in a fight

Is this the true beginning of the end
Is everyone the enemy
Can no one be a friend
Is this our final destiny

I think of the children, and sigh
This is the world we leave
What do we say when they ask why
My heart and soul they grieve

God we’ve suffered through the years
Now only words of hate are spoken
We’ve all shed the tears
We need your love, for we are broken

Burning Tongue

     I Don’t know the Answers
To all the questions why
Guess they’ll never be known
Until the day I die

Why did you let alcohol change you
Why did you surrender
They told me once a long time ago
Your heart was loving and tender

But the Demon living inside of you
Was something you couldn’t contain
I lived in fear of your presence and
Your words of steel only caused me pain

I survived the physical abuse
And the nightmares have faded
Darkness no longer surrounds me but
I guess I’ll always feel betrayed and jaded

Jesus saved me from Hell but I will
Never forget the words you so easily flung
Or your red Devil eyes as those words
Were rolling off of your Burning Tongue

But Not You

   I was willing to sacrifice myself
With love and passion and vow to be true
I was all in with no lies or alibis
But not you

I told myself a thousand times
That I shouldn’t
But against all odds I did
But you couldn’t

You asked me to take a leap of faith
With hesitation I did it
Then for whatever reasons
You didn’t

Love for me is like Russian roulette
I took the gun and I held it tight
I pulled the trigger for you but
You killed it and said it wasn’t right

I poured out my heart and soul, my fear
My hopes and dreams in a pile of spew
I let myself be vulnerable
But Not You

Twenty nine years ago I lost my mother to
Cancer, she was fifty nine. She died in May before her sixtieth birthday which would have been on this date November twelfth
So today is her birthday in Heaven.
Happy Birthday Mom❤️❤️❤️
I miss ya!!! Her favorite time of year was
Spring and she loved Butterflies and she is our Butterfly Angel.


🦋Butterfly Angel🦋

  In the dark of the night
Sometimes I cry
It’s been so hard,
Since you said goodbye

When I’m alone
Sometimes I see your face
The tears may fall
But I know you’re in a better place

Butterfly Angel,
So high and free
Butterfly Angel,
Watch over me

There isn’t a day,
I don’t think of you
I know I should be happy,
But sometimes I feel blue

Now you’ve sent me a sign,
Saying everything’s ok
A reason to live,
For a better day

Butterfly Angel,
So high and free
Butterfly Angel,
Watch over me

When I see you,
In your fluttering flight
With your colorful wings,
In the shimmering light

I know when God comes for me
I’ve got nothing to fear
The memory of you,
Will always stay strong and clear

Butterfly Angel,
So high and free,
Butterfly Angel,
Watch over me

Butterfly Angel,
So high and free
Butterfly Angel,
I know you’re watching over me

History is now just a word
The world has changed, it’s not
Recognized and it’s so absurd

Did a past ever exist
What do we really know
Are we children to be seen not heard
In a stagnant life unable to grow

It’s all about feelings so terribly hurt
The world is so very cruel
So erase it all and make it go away
With a very demanding new rule

The sky cannot forever be Sunny
There will always be rain
We cannot experience pleasure
If there’s never any pain

Caterpillar To A Butterfly

  I Never thought I would be a husband
Never thought I would be a dad
Never thought life had a purpose, never
Saw anything good from a life so sad

But through it all some how I survived
And it’s something I’ll never understand
But there’s always been a light from above
And I guess I don’t need to know the plan

Never saw myself as more than worthless
For it was pounded in my brain
Never had a moment to be proud
Never wanted to carry on my fathers name

But as we fast forward to now
I can see all the times Jesus carried me
So I gave him my heart
And from the darkness I am free

I have a beautiful wife and daughter too
You know that life that wasn’t for me
But some how here I am
And I feel it was meant to be

When I think about it you know, it most
Always brings tears of joy to my eye
Because I got to see my baby girl
Transform from a Caterpillar to a Butterfly

Celestial

  A million to one would be an
Understatement of impossible possibility
For true love from the vast sea of humanity
And to feel the completeness of tranquillity

As a lost soul with no direction
Like an asteroid floating aimlessly in space
Searching and longing for a magical embrace
To suddenly seeing her beauty her face

As if it was destiny without reason or rhyme
Opposites attract like a magnetic force
Nothing could ever have changed it’s course
Logically it must have been a higher source

For I was in a pathetic state of being
Drowning in my worthlessness and pain
Listening to the demon voices in my brain
In my own darkness and never ending rain

Then God looked down upon me and smiled
Seeing the disaster of my event in my venue
He sent an amazing Angel to my rescue
I was able to heal and start a new

I’m alive and well and very blessed
From one whom seemed to be *******
Matched with one so vestal
And now living a life so amazingly celestial

Change

   Like a clock on the wall changes time
Like a caterpillar changes to a butterfly
Like night turns to day, everything
Changes, sometimes in the blink of an eye

Everything used to be cut and dry
Boy or girl and right or wrong
But now it’s all so confusing
Like trying to learn to play Mahjong

I’m not here to judge or condemn
That is for the fool
It’s just that I’m of a different time
And all I know is old school

In my mind a woman is a woman
And she dresses appropriately
And a man is a man and when they
Are together the difference is plain to see

So forgive me me if I smirk
And if I find it odd and strange
I’m not trying to be mean and cruel
It’s just difficult to accept the change

Changing Times

     These are changing times
The clock just keeps ticking
Yes these are changing times
Though the blood never stops dripping

These are changing times
But things remain the same
Yes these are changing times
But it’s still a politician’s game

These are changing times
The waiting for peace is unremitting
Yes these are changing times
But the lies they continue spitting

These are changing times
But they still dismiss God’s voice, forbidding
Yes these are changing times
Yet nothing seems unfitting

These are changing times
Yet we’re still caveman savage
Yes these are changing times
Yet we’re forever greed driven to ravage

These are changing times
No one can figure it out, no one can win
Yes these are changing times
Yet we’re still divided by the color of skin

These are changing times
We’re still buying what the media has to sell
Yes these are changing times
As we keep getting closer to Hell

These are changing times
I cannot explain enough with these lines
Yes these are changing times
These are changing times

Christmas Bird

      It’s Christmas Eve and I’m sitting
On my couch staring at the Christmas tree
Overwhelmed with emotions,  I feel the love Of the Christmas Angel come over me

Up in the night sky the Christmas Star
Is shining so vividly bright
And I can’t help myself but to feel
Peace from its wonderful light

In the silence of the night
I feel myself drifting off to sleep
Soon it will be Christmas morning and
Inside my heart this feeling I wish to keep

So I fought for as long as I could through
Each and every uncontrolled yawn
Like a child tossing and turning restlessly
Anticipating the coming of the dawn

And just before the Sunrise came the
Most Beautiful sound I’ve ever heard
And I quickly realized it’s the sound
Of the Song of the Christmas Bird

Christmas Peace

    As I sit here on my couch, I have a
Cup of hot chocolate in my hand
Thoughts in my mind, there’s things
I ponder and things I’ll never understand

All of the lights are out and I have switched
On the Christmas tree and window display
And I’m letting myself get lost in the silence
Of the night and in a dream I slipped away

I’m overwhelmed with a feeling of love
And I’m surrounded by beauty everywhere
As my mind begins to process it all I think of
Heaven and if I could be there

Everything is so real and it shakes me
As I begin to hear one single Angel singer
I begin to wake up to the Christmas tree
Flicker as my dream continues to linger

I wish my dream could be my reality
I pray for hate and violence to cease
I wish the world was Heavenly beautiful
And every day was like my Christmas Peace

Chuck Was Here

    I’m just a nobody, just another forgetful
Face in a world of so many faces
Like one drop of water in the Ocean
Touching the shores of so many places

I do my best to care for others but I know
That I’ll be forgotten like yesterday’s news
I love my Rock & Roll but I can identify
With its origin as it comes from the blues

I talk to Jesus on a regular basis
I think of him as my best friend
And I understand that my life here
On Earth will come to an end

I still see the world as a beautiful place
But it’s getting uglier every day
And I don’t know why because it still
Won’t matter when the Lord takes me away

I wonder will I be remembered or not, yet for
Reasons that are still not completely clear
There’s something from inside me that
Wants The future to know Chuck Was Here

Clash Of The Covenants

   I’ve never beat around the bush
There’s nothing I’ve tried to hide
I’ve always been honest even if I
Take a risk our opinions may collide

When it comes to my love of Jesus
I’ve always let it be known
In my heart I know he’s with me
And I’ll never be alone

You might think I’m a Christian
But that’s technically wrong
I’m a man of righteousness
And in reality it’s a new song

Here’s the reason why, I sing
With my excited breath
I’ve been freed from the *******
Of the ministry of death

The ministry of death is the teaching
Of the old covenant of Mosaic law
This teaching is now obsolete and it
Might as well be the Devils Claw

Jesus died and his blood washed our sin
We’re free from trying to be prefect servants
Replacing the old with the new,celebrate the victory Jesus won in Clash Of The Covenants

I Re Wrote This and I deleted the other one

Thank you!!!
I’m reading a book with the same title.
What I love about it is the Author explains it clearly and breaks it all down. He’s not saying that we are free to do as we please and everyone goes to Heaven.
No he’s not saying that we can break the laws. What he is saying is that the laws had an original purpose but with them also came the introduction of the sins that we were not to commit. Thou shall not covet being the last one and most important. If thou covets he/she is in temptation to lie steal and **** and if he or she covets the affection of someone other than their own spouse He/ She May also commit Adultery. Coveting leads to all of the other sins. He also states that if you have one law you must abide by all of the laws. Break one and you’ve broken all of them. You cannot pick and choose which laws you wish to obey and which ones you choose to break. The laws were to be obeyed holding the standard of perfection and no human is perfect. The temptation was to much and mankind buckled under the pressure. God saw this to be a huge problem the harder we tried to be perfect the more we became sinful. Adam and Eve had one law. Thou shall not eat of the tree with the forbidden fruit. One temptation from the serpent and the law was broken.
Think of a child being told they cannot have any cookies from the cookie jar and you turn your back for a minute and they get into the jar eat the cookie and you catch them with the evidence upon their face. So God sends his Son Jesus to be sacrificed upon the Cross to take all sin from everyone and I mean everyone if only they believe in him and believe he is the Messiah and except the gift of Grace and salvation.
This frees us from the ******* of the laws and the pressure of perfection and the temptation of breaking the laws.
In turn a righteous person does good naturally with their faith in Jesus he/she doesn’t have any desire to covet lie or steal or ****. It’s complete freedom from any sinful thought and of any pain and it is pure love and it gives us more willingness to love as well. Love thy neighbor as you love yourself, there’s no hate in the soul of someone who has faith in Jesus. It’s really amazing when the light bulb comes on and you can see the light and you can become the light. I’ve never felt so free.
The old covenant of the laws of Moses
(The Commandments)
Were made obsolete and basically useless debris with the new covenant made with the crucifixion of Jesus. Those who believe in me shall have eternal life in Heaven.
Everything I just explained I tried to put in my short poem. Jesus crucifixion was the victory of the Clash of the covenants the new destroying the old. It’s really Beautiful!!! God Bless!!!

Closed For Repairs

       Well I put myself out there
I decided to take a chance
When I climbed the tree of life, I guess
I came to rest on the weakest branch

They said I’d never find love
If I kept to myself and kept so reserved
They said to open up and I would
Find love and get what I deserved

So I found myself a beautiful woman
I opened up and let her inside
I felt free and comfortable and
There was nothing I tried to hide

I was flying high on the wings of love
I learned what it was like to fall
Now the pain is unbearable and I know
It’s something I never wish to recall

She broke my heart and the damage is
Severe and there’s no pain that compares
So now I’ll just hide away in my safe place
And this heart will be Closed For Repairs

Coffee House Poetry

   I ordered a cup of coffee
Black and hot
The waitress brought my order
And a cup of coffee black and hot
Is what I got
And the finger symbols clang,
Clang, clang, clang, clang

I woke this morning to hear
a bird singing on my window seal
I got out of bed and saw a bird
All to real, yes a bird was
Singing on my window seal
And the finger symbols clang,
Clang, clang, clang, clang

I heard an echo of a wise man who said
If your eye hurts while drinking tea
Remove the spoon
And the finger symbols clang,
Clang, clang, clang, clang

It was night and I Thought it
Would be dark, I looked
Outside and it was dark
And the finger symbols clang,
Clang, clang, clang, clang

Colossal

    Are we alone is the question
As we search the vastness of space
The curiosity and the wonder of life
In another galaxy but still no trace

Sometimes we wonder if this is it
Is there nothing more
We wonder about the meaning of life
What are we living for

As we get caught up in the day to day
Sometimes we forget to live
We sometimes get angry, we forget
We have love in our hearts to give

We lose our faith in a supreme being
Because it just seems unfathomable
How can this ancient story be true
But can it be so unimaginable

Can it be that we are like rebellious teens
And just refuse to be docile
Just because we cannot comprehend
Something so beautiful and colossal

Cornerstone

     In a world that seems to be spinning
Undoubtedly out of control
We all search for answers and we
Pray for a peace in our soul

Is it easier to be disconnected, for if we
Care it becomes hard to take a breath
Because caring can feel so strangling
So we’ve even become immune to death

It’s as if we let ourselves have a heart
We push ourselves to all that we can take
We live life from day to day knowing
That our heart will constantly break

It’s so hard to find the balance
And it seems there’s no common ground
Though it’s becoming more difficult we
Must still find room for love to be found

In these times when life overwhelms us
And makes it easier to be in denial
Even with our technology of the internet
When everything is going viral

We tend to get bitter and draw our lines
And build walls trying not to be overthrown
I pray we still have love in our hearts
And just let Jesus be our cornerstone

Countless Times We’ve Met Along The Way

     There was a movie in the seventies
Its title was On A Clear Day
It starred Barbra Streisand and it
Was a musical and kinda like a play

It was about reincarnation and it
Was fascinating and I thought of Deja vu
Times where you think you’ve lived it
Before but you couldn’t, it’s brand new

But yet in the universe or even
Somewhere in our own galaxy
Could there be another you and I
Living out another life a destined odyssey

And could this be repeated over and over
Again and could our minds be connected
To the other versions of ourselves at different
Times and the information gets collected

I’d like to think that it’s possible
Somewhere in time and space
That we’ve been together
In some enchanted place

And it will come to be in our knowledge
On one glorious future day
When we come together yet again
The countless times we’ve met along the way

     Well it happens all the time
And I’m sure it happens to all
And I’m not ashamed to admit
I cringe from what rises from the stall

Your day is going well but you
Must go inside to take a ****
Your a good person and really
No one deserves a torcher such as this

So please I have but one request
If you must go number two
In a public restroom, you know
It’s just the right thing to do

Remember the last time you walked
In and you thought something had died
And the smell was so overwhelming
That you broke down and cried

There’s nothing worse than walking in and
That smell hitting your nostrils in a rush
It’s really the least you can do is give
The person walking in a curtesy flush

     I’d like to think I’m stable
If I am, I’ve gotta be on the edge
If you examine my mind, I think you’ll
Find you won’t have to dredge

For I’m sure it’s alive just beneath the
Surface, just milliliters from escape
So I warn you, be careful where you tread
For the outer layer is as thin as a crape

I’m trying desperately to hold it all
Together but it’s a shaky reality
If you listen to my words, they’re
Screaming like the wails of the Banshee

It’s not like I’m hearing voices
It’s more like an annoying itch
The best way I can describe it is,
It’s like a video game with a gli -gli-glitch

I know it’s just a matter of time
Before I lose myself inside my brain
The circuits are blowing, if you look
Closely you’ll see, I’m Crazy/Sane

Crown Of Thorns

     We were placed in this world
By God but our home is in Heaven above
We cannot accept the worlds ways
And we’re expected to spread his love

Born sinners each and every one
Saved if we accept his gift of Grace
It must be completely felt in our hearts
And know he can read our poker face

Most ignore his love and deny it
Science says he doesn’t exist
I’ll never understand this and I’ll
Never know why anyone would resist

Looking through the eyes of the world
I see people yearning for earthly acceptance
But in seeking this instead of Jesus we will
Never reach our point of transcendence

It’s easy to become part of the World’s ways
To blend in with the masses
But this is the way we fall into the fires of
Hell and blend into the ashes

The heart desires to be loved and not
Rejected yet we are doing the same
As we turn our backs to God when we
Love the world and play the Devils game

Why do we expect the roses in life
And fear the worldly scorns
Remember God gave Jesus the power to save
But he had to wear a Crown of Thorns

Crystal Ball

    I found a crystal ball
In an old run down shack
It was beneath layers of dust and rubble
In a room way in the back

The shack was in the woods where I was
Hunting and I know this will sound insane
But I felt as if I was being drawn there
As if it was calling my name

It has great powers, it seems more than a
Mer mortal can comprehend
Do I dare try to connect and do I dare
Begin the process to transcend

For even now as I have it in my hands
Visions of our future it’s starting to reveal
I feel myself beginning to slip into a trance
Between what is  fantasy and what is real

I see a bad Moon rising in a dark,
Dark Apocalyptic Sky
I see millions of people in fear
I hear them all as they cry

I see the Earth from above it and
I see the end of mankind
I see it’s complete destruction
With Nothing left behind

I also see what seems to be a new
Beginning complete with the Neanderthal
And somehow this brings me peace
As I stand here with my Crystal Ball

Chrystal Shard’s

     When I was young, mother told me
My heart was fragile like Crystals
Beware of Cupids Arrows and
Annie Oakley’s shiny silver pistols

Each would prove to be deadly
If I was to cross in their path
She said to always treat women
With tender love to avoid their wrath

But don’t fall in love
Because Love is destined to fail
When that day arrives
You’ll feel the fires from Hell

As time slipped away momma’s voice
Became just an echo from the past
I heard so many stories about love
And forever it was supposed to last

So I had to learn the hard way with no
Caution to the wind or regards
My love I gave to you and now my heart
Is shattered into Crystal Shard’s

CRYSTAL SKULLS

   In the middle of the night a year ago
I awoke from my sleep feeling uneasy
Since that night I’ve never been the same
And that feeling has stuck with me

I set out on a journey not knowing where
I was going and not knowing why
Something has been pulling me and
Guiding me like a star in the sky

I’ve heard voices in the night but I
Can never make out what they say
I’ve had restless nights and feeling
Drained of my energy more each day

I don’t know what compels me
And I’m uncertain of my destiny
I’m being driven by an unknown force
Like something from ancient history

I’ve left everything I’ve ever known
Far behind me, it’s all just a faded memory
Last night In total darkness I pitched
A tent on the shore of an unknown sea

This morning I awoke in the early light of
Dawn to the sound of shrinking seagulls
As my eyesight began to focus I realized
The beach was sand and Crystal Skulls

Curse Of The Undine

    So beautiful she was a spirit of
The Water, a rarity to be seen
Some say she’s a myth
But some believe in the Undine

A water Nymph able to become a human
If she fell in love with a human male
But there’s a price to pay if he was
To cheat and cause their love to fail

According to legend the male cheater
Is forced to consciously stop breathing
He is to end his own life because of his
Betrayal and his will of deceiving

I’m not gonna speculate on the myth
Though sailors swear of their reality
I’ve got no proof or documentation
To Sway, be it legend or a fantasy

But if Ancient accounts are factual
Betraying such a creature isn’t so keen
Such an act of disloyalty one would
Succumb To The Curse Of The Undine

Undine pronounced (Uhn-Deen)

Dangerous Euphoria

    Well it’s a modern phenomenon
These new ways for the young to die
It’s something I can’t comprehend
I’m only left to wonder why

It will be a blast, let’s steal a car
It’s our lives so let’s go waste it
We’ll take this car and drive as fast
As we can and crash it

They’ll pull our dead twisted bodies
From the mangled steel
Not knowing the rush of the moment
The way it made us feel

And though drugs have been around
To give us an artificial high
Now there’s this stuff called Fentanyl
It’s certainly an early goodbye

I’ve got this phone in my hand, there’s
Something about a text I can’t explain
I’ll read it and text them back
Even if I’m driving in the rain

I know that I can **** somebody or even
Shatter my own Calvaria
We’re young and I guess and we’re just
Naturally drawn to Dangerous Euphoria

Dawn Of Fire

     Since the beginning of time
We’ve known that our time will end
In the final days the people will beg
For more but none will he lend

For the saved there’s no worry
Only the unsaved are taking the risk
Maybe they think that time can be
Saved on a USB or a re writeable disk

Time it ticks away quickly and soon
There’ll be a darkness of eternal night
The people will choke on the smoke
And feel the heat of the fires light

This is the world’s doom, we can’t change it
But one can change their fate
It’s up to each individual and I pray
If you haven’t please do before it’s too late

If you don’t believe, that’s fine but In a
Vision I saw the flames were getting higher
For it is told this is the age of the beginning
Of the end and we’re living in the dawn of fire

Dazed And Confused

       It’s all different but yet the same
I feel like they did it as a game
How could it be so easy to be mistaken
I know it’s English but feels Jamaican

It always comes down to pronunciation
Sometimes it might seem like flirtation
When it’s really nothing like it at all
Things can quickly begin a free fall

She wound the bandage around his
Wound for the boy was hurt
Meanwhile the soldier decided to
Desert is tasty dessert in the desert

The wind was too strong to wind
The sail around the mast
He thought there’s no time like the present
To present his present for it was time at last

It’s all different but the same and
I hope I was able to keep you amused
But as for me it’s things like this
That keeps me dazed and confused

Happy New Year Everyone!!!

Dead

   Words cannot express the way I feel
So empty and lost in space
My heart shattered in a million pieces
As tears run down my face

Sunday afternoon the news
Was echoing in my ear
Unable to comprehend in shock
Unbelievable what did I hear

Sleepless night memories flow
Smiles fight through my tears
Thinking of all the concerts and the
Follies and friendship through the years

Cuyahoga falls Motley Crew KISS
A Long path in the woods we walked drunk
This test we all passed but on the way
Back it was one Paul would flunk

You see when the concert was over
What ensued was an hilarious disaster
In his brain he had fences to climb
He was the ultimate yard master

There were no fences to climb
I went searching and saw him fall
After instructing him to come back
When on his phone I had to call

I ordered KISS *** for our next show
And now I won’t get to share a drink
I’m in a miserable crazy fog and
My mind has lost the ability to think

Outside it’s still in the state of winter dead
Inside I feel completely dead
My mind is overwhelmed and dead
And my friend Paul is Dead

Deadly Is The KISS

      She’s the human equivalent of the
Killer spider known as the black widow
And she’ll get under your skin
Like the penetrating chigoe

She spins her Webb and awaits her
Un expecting prey to fall into her lap
And she’ll quickly incircle as he slowly
Dies in the grasp of her death trap

In her world she is the dominant one
She will forever reign
Falling in love with her will bring
Even the strongest man a life of pain

I warn every man of the danger
Of love, it can tear your world apart
You might think you’re tough but
Yet fragile is the heart

Beware the pretty face and the fragrance
Of her perfume, though it’s hard to resist
Her stunning eyes and her smile are just
Her tricks, remember Deadly Is The KISS

Dead To Me

       Everything that came before
Is just a vision in the rear view
Faded away like a dream or
A vision in the misty morning dew

When your hand reached out for me
It gave me a reason to live
It was your forgiveness and love
That helped me heal and forgive

But with a heart so broken
And the shadow that was cast
Like a snake shedding its skin
I was slow to shed my past

As the picture of the painting
Began to become clear
I was able to see all the Angles
That you sent to be near

And everything had to open
My eyes so that I could see
I had to become dead to myself and
The past Had to become Dead To Me

Thank You Jesus!!!

Dear; Hello Poetry

   First of all I want to thank you all for
Your friendship and kindness!!!
Question? Does anyone know what happened to Beautifully Broken and Scripted Silence?
  Now for the reason of this letter.
I apologize for not reading and responding as
Often as when I started and I apologize for not writing as much either.
I know I don’t owe anyone any explanation but for those of you whom may care, I feel that I should explain or tell why.
One of my problems was writers block,
The worst that I have ever experienced and it kept me from reading other works as well.
I lost myself in depression and lack of confidence and inspiration.
The other problem is that we meaning my
Wife and I were living through a real life drama in literally what movies are made of.
The FBI and the Medicaid fraud department are at this very moment investigating into this crap and I am really having trouble understanding everything and trying to get a grip on things. I should mention that we meaning my wife and I have been found innocent and free and clear of any charges but members of our father in law’s family may find themselves behind bars and at least one of them may be charged with ****** as well. When all of this stuff started both my father in law and mother in law were both alive and now they are both dead and we have had to deal with two funerals and we find out that Mom wasn’t even in the Will and he was a loving Christian man and he loved her dearly and he wouldn’t have done that.
Second there’s $64,000 dollars from an account missing and my father in law’s death is suspicious. Mom died after with declining health issues and Dementia from Alzheimer’s. I hope and pray that they get to the bottom of it all and the ones involved get what they deserve. So needless to say on top of Covid and everything else, this has been a really bad time in our lives. We need to get away and we’re off to Hawaii this Saturday for 14 days of much needed vacation.
We just need to put everything behind us for a little bit. No work no investigation no nothing.
Please keep us in your prayers and I promise I’ll try to read more and comment more and like and love more and write more.
You’re all very special to me even though I’ve never really met any of you personally.
I still feel like I know you.
I’m sad also because It seems Beautifully Broken has left our little family.
God Bless you all!!!

Love Chuck!!!
P.S. Thanks for all of your love for the poem that I posted yesterday (Your Name)
I’m at work today, my last day before vacation so I gotta go for now.❤️❤️❤️

Deep Purple

    I’ve bared my soul and I’ve shared
My struggles and with what I fight
I’ve shared with you my darkness
And I’ve shared with you my light

I’ve written things of silliness
And you’ve seen my romantic side
And when world tragedy strikes
My feelings I just can’t hide

I’ve even been political not really
Intending to favor a certain view
Some might even say that I’ve gone crazy
Needing drugs to subdue

I’ve been enlightened and encouraged
You all have written words that inspire
To all of you here on hello poetry
I’ve come to love and admire

I’ve read what you’ve written
From your reality to your fantasies
You’ve taken me inside your souls
And revealed your personalities

I’ve also read words of your darkness
One woman wrote about ****
And like me others writing of their
Pain trying in many ways to escape

Like a letter to death from
Someone I believe was dying
And I became overwhelmed
And I just began crying

Being humans unfortunately
It means that none of us are immortal
So I take this time to pray that each of
You can break free from your deep purple

Defying Gravity

     It’s hard to hide in the dark when you’re
The Darkness ruled by your own personality
And it’s hard to walk in the light when you’re
The Brightness struggling with the Duality

There’s always something to keep you down
Life at times can be such a Calamity
And every day we encounter cruel people
And suffer from their insensitivity

Sometimes I just want to close my eyes
And live a life in a wonderful fantasy
But I know I can’t do that and if I did I would
Eventually have to open them to my reality

I have come face to face with Death
And I know about my own mortality
But just maybe with my poetry I’ve
Found a way to achieve an Immortality

And with everything that tries to bring
Me Down I keep my strong mentality
But I couldn’t do it on my own and Jesus
Is the one that keeps me Defying Gravity

Democratic Propaganda

  The hate spews like the water that
Flows over the falls of Niagara
And it burns in the veins to the hearts
Like the fire from volcano magma

They so desperately want to keep
Their power and their control
They will do anything for the cause
To the Devil they’ve sold their soul

First lie, deception was the Russian Coalition, since they’ve been loading the platter
With a Covid pandemic and now with the
Rioting and Black lives matter

The Devil is working over time through the
Dems but they are failing to realize
The country they are trying to deceive
Has opened their eyes

And now like young lovers forbidden to
See each other,they always rebel
The country will do the same and the Dems
Will be putting themselves through Hell

Four more years of the Trump
And Republicans will rule for many more
The actions of the Dems have let us see
The Devil like we never have before

So since we all have a voice, I figured
I would speak with every stanza
Just Incase you’re not able to see the
Media and the Democratic Propaganda

Desire

    I love to write, it’s in my blood
Been that way since I can recall
But life experience can lift you up
Or it can make you take a fall

When you fall, you reach out to try
And catch something to hold on too
You try to save yourself but with so
Many lies you can’t see what’s true

You find yourself losing your faith
In mankind and fear for the youth
The media and other influences is
Making them become so uncouth

Adding to that life for me personally
Has taken a spiral downward trend
And then you find a knife in your back put
There by someone you thought was a friend

So please forgive me for my absence
There’s just no spark for the fire
My friend darkness has surrounded me
And I just don’t have any desire

Destination Hawaii

    I work hard and I work long hours
It’s always a forty plus hour week
So there’s really a no brainer
It’s always a good time that I seek

Vacations come usually only one time
In the span of a year
And because of Covid last summer
We just stayed right here

Here being home and not one
Place did we dare to go
So the Virus seems to be under control
But does anyone really know

The restrictions were relaxed
And we decided to book a trip
And even though the numbers are rising
Tomorrow we arrive on the air strip

A lot has happened and unfortunately
We lost two loved ones so dear
And with everything else it’s just
Been one Hell of a year

So I’m sorry but I’m going to put it all
Behind a make this stern decree
I’m going to have me some fun
And I’m headed for destination Hawaii
