Omission

Lies are not only those spoken
not only promises broken
also those kept hidden
omission and yet the same
The secrets kept in the dark
ones that eat away at the heart
knowing the truth saying it never
lies that reside in forever
Thinking it’s okay to keep them quiet
believing they are not really lies
because you never say them out loud
knowing they are yet keeping them still
It is the omission that tears the soul
eats away at the love that once was
even worse than those spoken
it’s the quiet lies that leave us broken
Happy

Whether or not one is happy is not a product of environment
what is happening to them, what they are going through
it has nothing to do with their struggles or joys
if someone hurt them or loved them
Whether or not one is happy has only to do with what they believe
what they allow to become manifest in their thoughts
what they allow to take over their minds
not their emotions, not their hearts
Whether or not one is happy is completely controlled within
it is not the without that affects how one feels
it is how they let the without affect how they think
happy is within their control
Just like being happy is within your control
what you think is manifest into how you feel
and no one, nothing, can make you feel anything unless you allow it
happy is as happy thinks….you choose whether or not to think happy
what will you choose today…..
Freaks

We are all just freaks inside
some on display some who hide
there’s always something just below
some in public some they don’t know
It could be something simple and small
or something waiting to consume all
the small voice never quiet
sometimes controlled sometimes a riot
We are all just freaks of one kind or another
some show the world some try to smother
the freaks we can live with and those we don’t
those we have as friends and those we won’t
Everyone all of us freaks in this life together
some still grounded yet others on a tiny tether
those who live easy and those who struggle not to die
some who seem quite normal and those who just wonder why
In end we are all freaks walking through this life
some who get along and some know only strife
those who feel love and others who know pain
yet and still beautiful freaks we are all again
Doors

There are doors in life that should never be opened
and doors that you wish you had
there are doors that take you to the wrong places
and doors that only make you sad
There are doors in life that are unanswered questions
never having been explored
and doors that let you learn and grow
and those that leave you bored
There are doors in life you’re too scared to open
for fear that you will fail to walk through
and those that steal away pieces of your soul
in ways you never knew
There are doors that lead to both good and bad
and those that lead to nowhere at all
doors that change your life and those that make you pay
and then some are just a bathroom stall
Shadows

And lo though I walk through this life with no regret
the shadows they follow me still
the past is gone but unforgotten as yet
it lingers at the corners against my will
And lo though I walk knowing it is better now
the stitches of the wounds remain
to completely erase rewind forget somehow
these things I cannot yet attain
And lo though I walk in love and light
the darkness that once was creeps in and out
even though I resist with all my might
just a little twinge just a little doubt
And lo though I walk renewed and stronger
the shadows remain just out of reach
wishing them gone to be here no longer
but there are still lessons they must teach
Stitches

In the mending of a heart
the broken edges pieced and sewn
taking in all that broke apart
closing up the pain you’ve known
New people new feelings growing over the seams
stitches filling the rips of pain
the past that broke you now only dreams
time now taken to try to make you sane
Stitches felt only slightly with fingers of the soul
still there and yet less or so I’m told
seemingly now to be somewhat whole
the burning hot fire of the pain growing cold
In these stitches lie the hurts of the past
dreams broken love lost hope all gone
in the twilight now at last
my heart and it’s stitches all alone
Belief

Not the tangible something unseen
down deep inside in the in between
where others may doubt and not believe
your belief is not what they perceive
A life lived not for others or on what they say
for it is up to you to find another way
it is within your own mind the strength to find
to all others keep your belief blind
What lies within stronger than all that surrounds without
these people do not know what you are about
supposition rumor predisposed opinion mean nothing to you
it is only your soul that knows what is true
Belief in oneself comes inside through highs and lows
it comes in the places no one else knows
always it should come first from your own soul
never depend on others to make your belief whole
You Are My What

As I was going back through my MySpace blog copying over the poems I had written there, I came across the first poem I ever posted online in August 2006. All those writings brought back so many memories. So, I thought I would share my first one again
You are my shoulder…to lean on
You are my ears…that listen
You are my heart…that does not judge
You are my friend…
You are my laughter…that makes me happy
You are my calm…that gives me peace
You are my shelter…that makes me feel safe
You are my friend…
You are my hope…when I have none
You are my smile…when I cannot find mine
You are my dreams…when I need them
You are my friend…
You are my friend…yet so much more
You are my laughter, my peace, my hope
You are my friend…yet so much more
You are my lifeline…you are my friend

Rays of love reaching into my soul
making me happy making me whole
warming my spirit lifting my heart
staying with you never to part
Rays of love filling my need
the roots now growing from just a small seed
where once I was alone and searching for you
now I know love both old and brand new
Rays of love as fingers holding my spirit tight
guiding me through day leading me through night
wrapped in the blanket of a love so true
inside it there is only me there is only you
Rays of love never want to let them go
taking it simple taking it slow
knowing now what is true what is real
rays of love are all I want to feel
Whole

Taken as a whole life is quite complex
day to day the living not knowing what comes next
so many things leave little holes dents inside the soul
but then there are just a few that tend to make one whole
To have someone who loves you no matter what you are
to go with you each step of the way whether near or far
holding your hand holding your heart they never let you go
having someone that makes you whole is all you need to know
They can take all the dents all the holes and patch them over with a kiss
make you realize that there is nothing in this life you miss
for you have it all right in front of you love to fill the gaps
into the very soul of you each touch from them taps
Everything that was no longer means anything to me
as if the past the people there were dead you see
surrounded now by an envelope of love to feel
it makes me whole love’s power to heal
