Salted Carmel

Toadied words

Become sincere

Over time passed

Filled to the brim

A factices of noise

All for show

So much thanks

To just a few

Covered in shinning film

Ready to unwrap

Given to You

Does the act of

Thinking about something

Make it happen?

Is the spoken word

Power enough

To get things done?

In my dreams

They give to me

What my future holds

In every word I say

A new story begins

With I in control

Confidence

In every key

Drives me forward

As I say

And as I do

My advice

Water Mark

Have you ever woken up

And had to wash

The tears off your face

Discovering how you slept

They say your dreams

Reveal who you are

but how about when

You do not dream?

The pain is slowing crushing me inside

And taking away my dreams

Leaving to fight

For everything I love

Trapped in this home

Cold creeping in

Surrounding me in its embrace

I dare not breath

So many suitors

Chase for my heart

How do I turn away

With simple grace

I must stand strong

And forge ahead

Move away from this

From me 

Everything seems so shallow

And meaningless

Why do we try to appease

Everyone above par

Here and now I grow

For tomorrow

I can’t leave

Before I know

Miss Anony

No one knows who I am

Or where I’m from

And I like it like this

I’m never remembered

But always there

Giving you a hand

I might not change the world

But make it a better place

Without you knowing

I like you I am

Not invisible

But not seen

My Best Friend’s Beau

Her happiness

Is all that matters

And  this what you gave her

How can I hate you

When you make her smile

This is my question

Seeing you, I realize

That we think alike

Just in different ways

We many not have a lot in common

Except for her

And that’s all we need

To be neutral  

Piano Poetry

Great music

Of those before

Plays my soul

Every up and down

A perfect concerto

Out for the world to hear

I listen to modern

Because it blocks the pain

That the classics reveal

But I don’t care

Because I don’t want to fight

Just listen

Because life without music

Would be flat

Yes. No. Maybe?

I’ve always been alone

But never lonely

More alone now than ever before

I’ve lost the will to smile

But it will return

All in due time

Tears choke down

What I want to say

But I feel safe

Around you

I pretend

But I don’t have to

Do I ?  

Peter Piper

There’s so many words

That have gone unsaid

Unable to fill the silence

I’m not angry

Never have been

Just lost

Although I stop speaking

I never stop caring

Instead I’m consumed in thought

Patience

Time

Is all I ask

Of you  

2am

a shoulder to cry on

a good laugh

would bail you out of jail

if you weren’t there next to me

through thick and thin they stay

you give into sleep

just a phone call away

but what if I couldn’t

pick up the phone

or you didn’t answer?

Fear

A foreign phenomena

No fiends from afar

Nor mares in the night

Not situation

Of hand or heart

Shall make me stand and shake

Like a tear

It has no purpose

Only to draw attention

Aware of certain sights

I stand to fight

This thing called

Fright
