As I close my eyes--I conjure up--a bright n' warm Spring day, where I watch a grassy meadow roll--like the waves that churn the sea. And I spend time fawning over flowers beneath the canopy of a mighty tree, then while I sit there, budding blossoms bloom, to fill the air with their perfume. And … Continue reading An Ode to Spring

Set Me Free
Daughter dear, I can feel you here. You have a long way forward but my end is near, And when I'm gone, release those fears, Let them wash away with that stream of tears. Let them wash away with that stream of tears... For you have tremendous strength in you, A capable mind and a … Continue reading Set Me Free
The Mountain’s Peak
Break these heavy chains from off my wrists - shatter these restraints and burst my cysts. You've tied me down and pushed me 'round to act like a Queen who's been self-crowned. Days have passed living beneath your authority, democratically contributing to us as a minority. Just a present-being begging for equality, but with no … Continue reading The Mountain’s Peak
The Black Bird Soars
A blackbird soars silently through the thick of the great blue sky, Every evening collecting simple filaments for its regular roosts repairs, Every day the bird becomes witness to the homes of humans in its eyes, Every human displays a history beneath the space the fowl shares. A blackbird passes pleasingly peering into the lives … Continue reading The Black Bird Soars
Life’s Silk Curtain Drops Ft. Brad – Common Sensibly Speaking
The Silk Curtain Drops (The Wolf Boy's Poem) The silk curtain gently drops The ticking of the clock stops The last glass of fresh water Last breath before the slaughter A fading smile from a loved child A million memories run wild All consuming lack of everything All-knowing void of anything Recycle ingredients, soul by … Continue reading Life’s Silk Curtain Drops Ft. Brad – Common Sensibly Speaking
His Once More
When Heaven shines its light upon me, I'll not be weighed down by my fears, or the tears of my past fading behind me. Instead, I'll look forward towards a blinding light, knowing that this time was never taken from me, but granted freely, as this time was never truly mine, and only graciously extended … Continue reading His Once More
Lost at Sea – Poetry Collaboration ft. Sarika
(The Wolf Boy's part) Took a boat into the Ocean, but ended swept up in a storm. The vessel tumbled while in motion, now I'm lost and all forlorn. Riding on the waves, as they rhythmically crash and break. On a life raft for many days, unable to make but one mistake. ~ The turquoise … Continue reading Lost at Sea – Poetry Collaboration ft. Sarika
Goodbye Dear Summer, Hello Newcomer
Squirrels and chipmunks pitter-patter and chatter, As Fall's warm breath turns to Winter's icy exhalation. The stars in the sky float at ease, before turning into frigid constellations. ~ Autumn being just a tease, of an unpleasant time to come. The smell of decay rides upon the breeze, As the Earth bids adieu to the … Continue reading Goodbye Dear Summer, Hello Newcomer
In Love With A Ghost – A Terrible Poem
I've fallen in love with a ghost, She's the one I care for the most. No matter where I am, She's always there. Supports me with this cross I bare. Touches me in places where, Other people aren't aware... ~ My heart, You pervert. ~ Your mind must be full of dirt ~ She also … Continue reading In Love With A Ghost – A Terrible Poem
The Pain Train
A man hits his son to teach him a lesson, The punishments vary, He likes to keep him guessin'. The boy grows up with a burden to carry. ~ The boy becomes a man, That man finds himself a wife, They have themselves a son, They start themselves a life. ~ But, it's rife with … Continue reading The Pain Train
I’ve Loved You Many Times Before
Our love, it comes and goes, it seems, As if I'm living in a dream. In one moment, we're on fire And in the next, Simply embers, Of all our past desires. ~ There's a space in my heart, Reserved for you. When you'd left, love laid bare. When you'd near, love accrued. If I … Continue reading I’ve Loved You Many Times Before
