During my divorce, I started to explore writing as an outlet for my emotions. At first, I started with a fantasy book that I'd been toying with for years and found that one of the characters should be a bit of a poet. Suffice it to say I am no poet. But it became an outlet I threw myself into.... (edited) read more

I only have eyes for the impossible The unattainable Tell me I can’t win the game And I’ll play Tell me I’ll always be set in my ways And I’ll change Tell me I’m caged And I’ll escape Tell me I’m normal I’ll show you insane Tell me I can’t have you And I’ll love you anyway

Burned, ashes and void

In twilight’s ember, I cast away The remnants of love, once bright as day. Ashes of kin, in mournful flight, Swirled to the void, swallowed by night. Home, once warm, now smoldering gray, Reduced to cinders, lost in decay. Achievements gleam, then fade to dust, Their fleeting brilliance, a hollow... read more

“Desires as one” a short poem by me

Slowly on the rising, your mouth is full of words. Yet this heart is open, empty and waiting for your words. You take my peak of destruction and turn it into a masterpiece only you can desire. Only knowing your worth and time, makes me know the strongest we can become as one.

Is this a positive or a negative response to being in love? Are you so disheveled that you loved a troubling person who hurt you and now you can't recover?

Whispers of a Divide

No word is spoken, yet I know the quiet truth that we both sow— a longing caught between the veil, where love can’t die but cannot sail. Our roots run deep in soil unknown, though both seek light, though both have grown. We share the air, the stars, the dawn, but still the thread... read more
