Johnny Hem Poems

I want to take you to a place where dreams are solid gold.
To a place where you can't hide behind that mask of yours.
Give me your eyes, your ears and your mind.
I'm going to tell you how to get there!
...

Looking past what I wish the world were, I see life for what it is.
Emptied of all prejudice, I'm able to see the world accurately.

Removing my mask, I become my authentic self, I become human.
An emotional, intellectual and yet vulnerable being.
...

The best day is…

When I let go of the past,
When I'm not afraid of what lies ahead,
...

Kindness brings out the love in everyone's heart.
The gentle light that illuminates darkened pain.

Just a simple acknowledgement
...
