Shattered Glass

Shattered glass broken promises

Fine crystal to carry a heart upon

A bed of delicate truths

Love is an assortment of

Lies gently concealed in a guise

In its attempt to lure you away

From seeing what is real

Each shattered piece represents

The years of a life spent chasing

A fairy-tale without a prince

No more broken promises

No bed of delicate crystal

Only the hard unadulterated

Facts remain 

Shattered glass can’t be put back

Together again

Confessions

They say confession is good for the soul

The one on the receiving end might not be so

Inclined to believe that line

Whose soul is it good for?

To lay your sins on someone’s shoulder

To bear your shame and transport

It around with them

Innocent ears have to hear betrayal

Eyes gaze deep into the face of evil

Remorse doesn’t pay the for the debt created

Now the valley walked through is more

Perfidious thorns and rotting roses

Great you with sadness and bewilderment

My how selfish you are to bare your soul

At my damn door

Anger is only now beginning to make its rest

Upon my heart that has endured way too much shit

How dare you invite me in to your turpitude?

Now I feel dirty like I was the one to cross

That threshold of iniquity

Scrub my skin till it’s raw

I can still smell the deceit and treachery

The stench lingers in my nostrils

Lies, lies, lies,

Confession for the soul is good

Just keep your damn secret take it to your

Grave and inconvenience me no more

With confessions

Feelings Escaping

I don’t know if I should cry

Scream, curse, get pissed or simply

Accept the fact the human psyche

Is strange to dissect

My heart feels

My soul aches

My tears are cleansing

Inside I carry them

Drowning my pain

But my pain knows how

To swim

March

Mesmerized by beauty of sky

Arrogance of nature breathes

Restless yearnings left unfulfilled

Caress mother earth

Healing one moment at a time

Heaven Sings

She closes her eyes listen to the wind

The song it sings only her heart

Can interpret

Each note is a reflection

Melodious interlude to peace

Quiet reminiscing settles a

Restless soul

Sweet air brushes against

Falling tears mingle with

The whisper of love passing by

She opens herself up

Breathing in a new tempo

Rhythm changes stanza

Inhaling the fragrance of new beginnings

Silently letting yesterday fade away

Heavens breath reaches inside a

Crumbling heart

Breathing in a new song

Giving life to hope

In her heaven sings

Heaven sings

Heaven sings…
