Do you know what it is like to look up into the velvet night sky, and yet not see the stars? Do you know what it is like to see the song birds sing their sweet music, and yet not hear their sound? Do you know what it is like to feel your heart inside you, and yet not feel it beat? Do you know what it is like to be in a crowd of people smiling, laughing, sharing their love together..., and yet be all alone with no one around? Do you know what it is like when the light of your life has been extinguished, and you are left in absolute and complete darkness, frightened and alone? Do you know what it is like when the one you love so deeply and dearly is so far away? Your heart cries out their name and yet there is no reply. All you want to do is hold them in your arms, and you cannot. All you desire to do is to kiss their sweet lips, and you cannot. You long to hear their soft sweet voice as they whisper words of love to you, and you cannot. You just want them near, and they are not. Their absence brings with it frustration and sadness. You curse God that you cannot be with the one you love, and yet you thank him completely for bringing that person into your life, all the while knowing that no amount of dreams and hopes and prayers, can, at once, change the situation - the situation that is in the hands of the God that you curse. So, what do you do in such times? How do you keep your wits about you? How do you maintain some semblance of normal life, when all you can do is think about is the person that you are so in love with and that you would do or give anything just to be with? You feel lost somewhere between the cruel reality of life, and the dream-like fairytale that you wish to live in, and the only salvation is to be found in the arms of your beloved and that cannot happen. Friends cannot comfort your soul. Thoughts only make the pain in your heart worse. What do you do? You think about them - oh my God, how you think about them endlessly! You pray to God for the strength to see it through this situation, knowing that someday you will be with that person forever. But is that enough? No. Not always. Until you are in their arms, nothing really helps. The mind is a whirlwind as your thoughts are tossed around like matchsticks in the wind. But the one thought that is all constant and eats away at the core of my soul is a simple one: "When will I hear from you again? Will I ever hear from you again?" Such silly thoughts are these. But time can cause such thoughts to occur. It is only human. I am only human. And so, I wait. For how long? Only time and God can tell. And as I wait it seems as though the hands of the clock move in reverse instead of forward. Each second that passes seems as an eternity away from you. Time takes you further away from me instead of bringing you closer, and time is something that is beyond our control. Oh to be an angel, and have wings that I may fly into your arms at this very second. To taste your sweet kiss and feel your warm embrace. To love you, to have the pain of needing you, vanish in your arms, as would snowflakes on a summer day. And to know that we would at last, be together for all our days. Days spent lost in sweet heavenly love, such as we have never known. Oh God, my darling, how is it that love can be so wonderful, and yet hurt so badly? Such pleasure in knowing and feeling your love for me, and such mortal pain in being apart from the one that I love so deeply, so dearly, so passionately. Darling there is an old saying that applies to being away from something. It goes, "Out of sight...out of mind." But, my love, every "old saying" has an opposite meaning. In this old saying it is also said, "Absence makes the heart grow fonder," and just when I think it is not possible to be more in love with you, a second ticks off the clock, and I discover that I am more in love with you then ever before.

UntitledYou'd never know from first glance, the demons they deal with. The pain and hurt they feel. You'll never hear their screams or cries for help.
They'll smile in your face and tell you everything is alright. All while, hiding their own thoughts and feelings in the darkness of their hearts.
Like a child, too shy to speak up. They remain silent but, if you attempt to listen; you may just hear their whispers. Things like "help" and "I'm afraid" and from this comes a type of rage, like a hell on wheels. But, even their rage will remain quiet and still like calm waters under the night sky.
Who could they be in this day and age, you might ask. They're your neighbors, family and some are even our friends. Too in fear of those of us who may judge them so blindly. As, if we're incapable of doing any wrong. So bold and naïve some of us are. But,...  |
I'm a Human BeingI'm a human being. I've made a great deal of mistakes in my life so far and I'm sure there are more to come. But, don't forget I'm only a human being. Just like you, I wasn't made perfect, I have blemishes and flaws. I'm a Human Being. I have no idea what my future holds, just the stories of success I've been told but, among other things I've always been told "You're only human" "You can't do it all" "You'll fail" "You're going to fall" "You should quit" But, these things have only been my motivation over the years. Because although I'm only a Human Being I was also told I'M MORE THAN A CONQUEROR!!! So, yes, I am a Human Being but, never be mistaken I'm also a fighter and a dreamer. And my Bible tells me "I can do a... |
His StoryAs he looked into the clear blue sky Wishing he could grow wings and fly away with the doves above him He remembers just how much, he despises his current reality But, knows he must deal with the pains of the world to survive, just like his mother said. He can't make it off his dreams and great personality alone; no, not in this world he's come to call his home. Yeah, that's his mentality He never asked for this life. He's always prayed for something more Like that of a family man with kids and a wife But, has come to only know that of dull life Filled with misery Causing him to be filled with hate and anger Even to the extent of cursing his family tree. Screaming out,"GOD WHY ME?" No answer, just silence as usual Finally laying his head to rest Just to wake up to nothing more and to nothing les... |
NOTE TO MY SOULMATEDo you know what it is like to look up into the velvet night sky, and yet not see the stars?

A real Friend THEY'RE HARD TO COME BY BUT THEY ARE OUT THERE... |
What Do They Really Want What Do They Really Want? |
The Real HimPeople look at HIM and wonder WHY a young man is so happy... YOU SEE 4 those who ask HIM that question HE can tell they don’t SEE THE REAL HIM... They don't take a real good look at HIS brown eyes and see the sorrow or tears HE holds back... They don't try 2 feel HIS pain from the enemies attack; YOU SEE, they don't see the scars on HIS back... All they truly see is a nice young man with a smile and a bright plan 4 his future... Some people say HE'S a bright young man and others say HE'S a mature young man with a testimony... THE REAL HIM seems 2 only be noticed by HIS real friends... HE has been hurt by family, HE has been homeless, HE has been talked about, and at times HE'S felt as if HE was going through a fiery hell... But HE knows and believes that GOD will get HIM over and out of any trail or tribulation... You might wonder if you even know THE REAL HIM at the end of this poem... W... |
Am I Wrong Am I wrong for how I feel about the situation? Am I wrong for how I speak to you now? Am I wrong for all that I’ve done? Am I wrong for believing that there is another? |
