Standing in the mirror
smoking gun in hand
wondering what just happened
to make me kill this man
...
As I gaze into the starry night
the moon above me, warm and bright
I think that you can also see
the very same moon that appears to me
...
I long to feel as the eagle does
soaring high and swift among the clouds
and while my dreams alight, I cannot fly because
my arms have nary a feather, my feet are planted to the ground
...
In the hearts of boys turned men
Where dreams once quelched, come back again
And whispered in sighs of now grown girls
Wishes are hidden like oyster trapped pearls
...
Even all these years gone by
in sleep I still have dreams of you
I sometimes smile and often cry
I miss the things we used to do
...
~For Danniel, Happy Baby! ! !
A mother to be, your baby inside
through backaches and leg cramps you take it in stride
...
My tears won't fall in front of you
You will never see me cry
I wear a mask to hide the view
of the sorrow in my eyes
...
As the darkness closes in
and shadows form where light had been
Horned demons hound the scent of sin
and drag their prey to the realm within
...
I live, I hate
I give, I take
I lie, I pledge
I forgive, I judge
...
The rain falls cold and fast- shards of glass wrought in fires of bitterness and resentment.
Trees, buildings, lamposts and dusty cars weep with gratitude, their dirty tears running in torrents into the streets.
