shadows neath the door
concerned voices of old friends
try to talk me down
where were they when thoughts turned dark
when this life slipped through my hands.
unnamed Jun 12
life falls on hard times
it lives without luxuries
has to hitchhike home
unnamed May 22
Life leaves you guessing
Waiting for all the answers
Then slips away.
unnamed May 17
the meaning of life
I can't google it right now
doing your taxes?
unnamed May 17
life, never easy
look at the toughest of men
they've been on their knees
unnamed May 24
I need peace of mind
the taste must be so pleasing
life could be sweeter
unnamed May 27
life without limits
a dangerous game to play
its russian roulette
unnamed May 23
lip syncing for fools
that's what they have made of us
if caught, we're to blame
unnamed May 22
why'd you turn your back
listening is like music
you are just tone deaf.
unnamed Jun 2
it's the little things
dog crunching a potato chip
movie night at home
unnamed May 21
rolling on a log
frogs croak their disapproval
bogs and logs their home.
unnamed May 21
lonliness has aged
longing for an endless love
not just a lover.
unnamed May 31
in the looking glass
distorted image peers back
a funhouse mirror.
unnamed May 31
glance in the mirror
distorted image looks back
vanity still laughs.

what's love without pain
life without sorrow and loss
lies without truth.
unnamed Jun 4
no inspiring thoughts
theres nothing to write about
then love breaks my heart.
unnamed May 9
what becomes of love
when separation taunts it
when vows are tested.
unnamed May 21
days never ending
addressing the love and loss
never by their names
unnamed May 28
you returned a heart
love carried off with the wind
set it at my door
unnamed May 19
love knocks on my door
I tell it to go away
it left it's card though.
unnamed May 13
it is nice to be needed
to be wanted better yet
to be loved is the best
unnamed May 6
love lives in the light
I've seen it die in darkness
when it is over
you feel your whole world crash down
The, "it's not you it's me," world
unnamed Jun 12
politeness faded
"I'm sorrys", a thing of the past
silence between us
unnamed May 19
where did the love go
did boy bands sing it to death
did it die in vain
unnamed May 17
love, just a concept
well portrayed in the movies
I don't watch tv.
unnamed May 25
love does find the light
chinese painting, nature sings
flowers in my hair.
unnamed May 17
Love, never a breeze
Look at the strongest of men
They're brought to their knees.
unnamed May 19
I was in love once
the heat was there, the flame hot
then the rains fell down.
unnamed May 19
love has a title
address as sir or madam
it will respond then.
unnamed May 23
loves on vacation
gone for two weeks on the coast
the address unknown.
unnamed May 21
love will run around
cheat you out of devotion
laughing at the hurt
unnamed May 20
love can come and go
it will wander aimlessly
till it finds your heart.
unnamed May 28
loyalty unmatched
A dog is fiercely protective.
tail wags are their smiles

lately ladies lunch
patty melts pies and punch
tips total tallied

lately ladies lunch
patty melts, pies and punch
tips total tallied.

I dreamt of a place
far away and magical
my crystal ball sees
unnamed May 26
letters lives lagging
packages, porch pirates prowl
mailman made mirthless
unnamed Jun 4
may I be excused
please, thank you, yes maam and sir
manners forgotten.
unnamed May 20
watch your step please
I'm old but still have manners
please get off my lawn!

I had a best friend
bandana clad shepherd mix
his name was Possum.

Pharmaceuticals
Have a million side effects
The label is clear?

Feeling down today
Friends I knew in younger days
Won't come out to play
unnamed May 28
sensitive to touch
scars are painful reminders
of days without end.
unnamed Jun 3
my thoughts are many
like machine gun fire's tempo
no signs of slowing
unnamed May 10
My mistakes haunt me
just when I have caught a break
they're thrown in my face.
unnamed May 14
money is not love
not one in between exists
loves not a purchase
unnamed May 28
staring in their eyes
monkeys seem so human like
some are quite polite!
unnamed May 16
I was in love once
with a man whose moral compass was battered and bent
Or as he put it normal wear
and tear!
unnamed Jun 8
well its movie night
popcorn , tater chips and dip
ready for a fright.
unnamed Jun 8
in love with a star
his movies , his persona
infatuation
