Will You Please Stay (Free Verse)
Will You Please Stay (Free Verse)
You stole my heart
And caused me to sway
The love I feel
Will not go away
What have you done
To make me feel this way
To God above
I hope and pray
That you and I
Will be one day
I don’t know what else
I should do or say
Without you near
My life is grey
Everyday I wonder
If you’re okay
While you and I
Live far away

My Beating Heart Is Cinched (Quatrain)
Your scent fills my nostrils
It reminds me of spring
Its new love in the air
And of all that it brings
Oh what an aroma
There's no other like it
'Tis one I can't avoid
I fall into a fit
Oh why I ask my self
Must we be torn in two
Why on Earth can't I stop
Thinking so much of you
Why did I let you in
Deep inside of my soul
Every since I did
My heart has turned to coal

Unknown
It makes me laugh
When I see others
Take credit for my words
And at times I get pissed
When I start to think
Who in the hell do the think they are
But I guess that is the cost
For me remaining in the shadows
Not wanting to be known
Who in the hell
Do these a*ho* think they are
Low life f*n* scum
Want to be poets
Who can’t even find
Their own voice

Can We Ever Feel And Care
If it is then I am sick
I burn in the night like a wick
Will it ever end
Wake me with a prick
Can you cure me my friend
Can you provide sanctuary
Can you be my opium
Can you cure me of my sleeplessness
Can't you hear them telling me there is no cure
Can my cure be opium
Could I ever get to much
Would you ever be my crutch
Can we ever feel each other's touch
Can you withstand the grip of my clutch
Can it ever be as such
Can I ever awake from this nightmare
Can we ever feel and care

Destiny Is Cruel (Quatrain)
I would love to be
In a world of white
Where the days are long
And there is no night
Where we could cuddle
And be all alone
Without any cares
Or even a phone
We could pass the day
Writing poesy
Where you could be you
And I could be me
There is more to love
Than physical touch
Or cooking breakfast
Or packing a lunch

Just Remember Keep On Writing
I once loved you
With all of my heart
I wonder why
My hearts torn apart
You may move on
And I'll do the same
Neither of us
Should feel any shame
Maybe one day
We will be again
If it is so
Will it be a sin
We are married
With ones whom we love
So why is it
You fit like a glove

We Grew Up So Fast (Free Verse)
We Grew Up So Fast
My love do you remember
When we were in school
You were the debutant
And I was the fool
You were in the in crowd
I an outcast
But when we would talk
I wanted it to last
Oh how times have changed
We grew up so fast
Things are not so simple
As they were in the past
I knew I loved you
From the first day we met
One day we’ll be together
This is a sure bet
Until that day dawns
I will be here alone

I Will Miss All Of You
I Will Miss All Of You
I have grown weary
Of writing poetry ‘til dawn
I don't think that you all will miss me
When I am finally gone
Poetry is my love
And I will miss her much
But when it comes to poems
I have written a bunch
I will miss all of you
Whom I call my friends
If it were not for you all
I would never have picked up my pens
Maybe one day I will come back
To play with you all with our words
For there will always be the many

She Was Poetry (Free Verse)
She had style
And she had grace
She even had
An angelic face
I fell for her
One dark night
She even told me
This feels so right
Little did I know
That deep down below
One day would come
And she would become my foe
We would write poems
All night long
It felt so right
It couldn't be wrong
I do remember
That fateful day
We got in a fight
Then she went away

Some Of You May Think I Am Joshing (Shakespearean Sonnet)
Some of you may think that I am joshing
You may think that I am telling you all lies
I'm getting tired of constant jeering
With all of you hiding behind your guise
It really doesn't matter to me much
What many of you poets think of me
I just hope that you all don't pull your punch
Just tell me the truth about what you see
I'm a grown poet I can take the truth
So let me know about what you all think
Even if you may knock out my front tooth
Maybe I'll go and have a physical
So I can prove that I'm not full of bull
