Sleep

Sleep calls me to her warm deeps, Her sirens lullaby my weary mind Luring me into her soft embrace. Legions of her acrobatic sheep Beg an accounting in an unkind Temptation to blissful disgrace. Grim duty holds me to my post Productive, wakeful and alert I resist the sweet, seductive call And it's... Sign in to see full entry.

Time To Pause

I do not rush, nor do I wait, I arrive when I am due: Never early, nor ever late I appear when I am meant to. I will not make Time my master And dance to his frantic tune, Spinning, whirling, ever faster: Fly through "now" to get to "soon". I glide to a different dance Where things occur at their...

Independent Love

I love me, you love you, So we can love each other too, With a love founded on shared delight, With nothing fear fearful or contrite. You need you, I need me It's the healthy way to be, We're here in plenty, not in need So our relationship just might succeed. I'm still me, you're still you No matter... Sign in to see full entry.

Beyond The Surface

Look beyond the surface I may be more than I seem At the first glance; I might be a man of courage, Or an architect of dreams And sweet romance; Maybe I have a driving goal That is inspired by love, Perhaps I am wise Or hide the special soul You long for and dream of, Just look beyond the surface of...

I Grow

I reach for the sun, Stretching towards the open sky, Towards the man I almost see, The man that I might one day be If I can grow to reach so high And end the journey I've begun And so I reach towards the sun. I yearn for the sea Swimming towards the boundless deep Towards the man I've long denied... Sign in to see full entry.

Another Way

Soft tongued apologies cascading insincerity Blanket my ears with well meant lies, Trying to be polite at the cost of your integrity Hoping that I cannot see the anger in your eyes. Gradually fury slopes it's shoulders in defeat And bitterness grows to choke gardens of your mind, You pass sorrow,... Sign in to see full entry.

To A Lover

I am tired Of going round and round Ignoring me, ignoring you Forgetting us both. I am uninspired By this peace we found, It's not genuine, not true, And allows for no growth. Let us find a different way, A path of life and fire Where we allow our fears less sway And listen to our own desires. Let... Sign in to see full entry.

You Say/I Say

You say that I am wrong, That I am evil or bad And that you cannot condone The outrageous things I do. You tell me I don't belong, That I am stupid or mad And should leave good folks alone With other good folks, like you. I say that I love you With all your fears And judgements and pain, And the...

The Quiet Path

Take the quiet path, Take the happy road of self, The independent route of love. Avoid the roundabout of wrath And the car park of poor mental health, To go the way that you are afraid of. Spurn the highway of bad habit, Bypass the queues of "always is" And the gridlock of "always was"; Take the... Sign in to see full entry.

Imperfectly Me

Imperfect: I have many flaws, Some serious, some not, I might elect To seek the cause And grow beyond my current lot, Other flaws I may accept As a part of who I am And not try to change them at all: It's the flaws I removed and those I kept That shall define me as a man And nurture my soul.
