A poem for a mother’s 80th birthday
Over the sands of time you’ve travelled.
Across the ocean of life you’ve sailed.
Through the fog of daily worries,
Your unfailing love’s prevailed.
Your light shines from within,
Brighter than the heavenly sky.
The fire in your soul’s unquenched,
The flames one can’t deny.
Don’t measure your life in years
Nor by the number of breaths you take,
For we’re blessed by your resounding wis...

Underground (Part 28 to 30)
(NB. Three more haikus on the Underground)
28
Asleep on the seat
He only just wakes up
Before it leaves.
29
As the taxi beeps
Outside he tells himself this
Can’t keep happening
30
Guitar in his case
The busker offers the tramp
Some of his coffee.

Underground Part 1 to 6
(I)
Out of tune busker
Pausing for a few moments
Opens up a beer.
(II)
Pausing for its breath
The train can’t look back turning
Away from the guard.
(III)
Getting off the train
You almost turn back round to
Get straight back on it.
(IV)
Stepping from the mist
You feel like you are stepping
From a dark film noir.
(V)
Pausing suddenly
you think briefly ...

Til Morning Light
{Til Morning Light}
I've doubted my
happiness along
awaiting for my newer
sins til morning light
and as I rewrite all
of my stories and
compete with my
never-ending ends
that seems to never
be ending for me daily
and I don't have time
for no imposters
because I will only
fade away at the
rumbling watery
morning light while
rewriting all my new

{Unrecognizable}
Once she used to be able
to be recognizable to the
herself but bit by bit this
evil demon that lives inside
of her that's stealing her life
and herself dignity right
out from underneath her is
making herself image
distorted giving her a
false impression that
started to look like a
black sheep dressed
up in her skin making
her unrecognizable to

How Could You Miss Something You Never Had?
{How Could You Miss Something You Never Had?}
It's sad to say
that for a long
time now I
would be missing
you but in reality
how could I
miss something
I never really
had in the
first place
Yes it started
off by me
missing the
sound of your
deep voice
And the tender
touches of your
hand against
my skin

Holding Your Tiny Hands {Cody}
{Holding Your Tiny Hands}{Cody}
My dearest son,
I remember when you was born at 12:30 p.m. December 17
And then the doctor's laid you on my chest and as I wrapped you up in my arms and kissing your small tiny hands and face as the happy tears flowed down my cheeks
And then I started to count your small fingers and toes making sure all of them was there

She Misses Him Badly
{She Misses Him Badly}
They shared
something so
beautiful and
something so
deep and true
but that truthful
lustful love affair
ended to soon
between them
because he
didn't believe
her so she went
on her way no
matter how much
she cared or loved
him and so much
she wanted to
stay but she
knew that if she
did they would

Walk A Mile In My Shoe's
{Walk A Mile In My Shoe's}
Walk a mile in
my shoes
because I was
left alone
without no
money and no
family at the
age fifteen to
comfort and
love me while
my life started
to spin out of
control hitting the
ground full blast
like a nuclear
weapon blowing
the world up
around me

His Whisper's In My Ear
{His Whisper's In My Ear}
He always
whispers sweet
desirable sexual intoxicating love
in my ears
And when he
leans my head
back slightly
pulling my long
hair back while
kissing my neck
as he nibbles his
way down my
desirable hot
body leaving my
body shaking
with excitement of wanting him as
I nibble on my

Timeless Temptation
{Timeless Temptation}
He had lips like a
sweet soft angles
lips that made my
heart melt away
to rubbish
As his eyes
sparkled in mine
like the starry
skies above my
head
But his words
was intoxicating
to my ears as the
sound of his heart
and mine pounded
loud and louder
until I no longer
could hear his
words just th...

Life's Expectations
{Life's Expectations}
Life isn't what we
think or expect it
to be
Because life can be
filled with hurt, pain,
sickness, death, lying,
cheating and
bamboozled with
condensing pricks
that only seems to
think of themselves
and no one else in
life no matter how it
effects the other
person in the situation
at hand
Because my ...

Take Care
{Take Care}
Take care too, Friend.
There are times I want
to hide from the sun too,
so I at least know how
that part feels like.
Thing is,
there's so little sun
here anyway that even
walking about in the
fresh air seems like a
being under a rock
at times.
I never not wanted
to be your friend,
ma'am and I hope
we can put this
behind...

Face To Face With Us
{Face To Face With Us}
My white and tan face fades,
hiding inside of this grayish black smoke.
I knew they'd use it against us,
dammit; the tear gas is filling the blue skies around us and as the rub bullets flies past our heads.
I'm grown I make my own decisions to fight this fight.
I'm fresh like I just rolled out of bed.
Their clouded misguided assumpti...

Little of Your Love
Its okay if you don't want to fall again
Love was hurtful
So you said again
Maybe its true
I feel your pain
How will I know
When I always abstain
Make me experience love
My heart cries
Make me feel love
My soul dies
Alone I have been
Looking like a Wanderer
Reality have seen
Not like a Slumberer
Searching for the perfect heart
To lost in love with

how hard life may get

my pains and sicknesses
I've always had you there

Murderous Tears
{Murderous Tears}
These murderous tears
follows down my cheeks
wetting my shirt as I gently
wipe them away like the
way the did you by murdering
you in cold blooded murder
and it left me here like a
child that was orphaned
to survive in these darkened
cold streets that the
blood stained asphalt
surrounds my feet
But I cannot fathom
how th...

Rose's are red,
Violet's are blue,

through you just
like when I gaze
into your starry
twinkling burning
fiery eyes that is
intoxicating to resist
that always lights up
my life

Him
{Him}
He loves me,
He loves me not,
I love him,
He loves me not,
I fought for us,
He didn't,
I chased him,
He didn't chase me,
I saw the sparks in his eyes,
I saw the way he looked at her,
I watched his body movement,
I watched him kiss her all of the time,
I've wrote a thousand songs for him,
I have sang a thousand songs for him,
I shipped a thousand feeling's to him,
But he...

Sadly she's a

But many people

International Women's Day
Pages and pages of pink and pink
roses on dresses and slender chic drink,
All pictures pretty some might think
but none reflecting strength, and that's the thing:
Women's Day isn't all flowers and hearts
it's message shouldn't be limited before it starts,
we are more than our constituent parts
so today try to tear stereotypes apart -
Support our differences, our quirks,
you don't have...

My work, "The P.O.T" (Sample)
