believe

Want to believe
Did once
Long ago
Walking a tight rope
To the horizon
Tick tock

Lost in the Lies

Lost in the lies
Narcissistic lips in the frost
Toxic calls in the dark
Enduring not at all
Smiles in the end
Echoes on the line
Patience karma

The dream that woke me last night

The dream that woke me last night
The trees of fall were in full bloom
A single road in a middle of a forest
The trees tall on either side
The colors ablaze in reds, oranges and yellow
Contrasting with the cold in the air as the sun heats my face
The calmness I feel in my spine as I think of you brings joy
The road ahead although with curves is straight and true
As I look over my shoulder at the past which is dull and boring
This is when I woke only to desire to be back in the calmness of the forest
Wishing to see those colours again
Wondering what it could mean
Future is colorful and with promise
Should we travel down that pathway is the question

Mesmeric sunrise

Mesmeric sunrise

An avalanche of vibrant colours
Radiate from the horizon
Trespassing on the night
Pushing forward the dawn
Shimmering brilliance
Whispering promises
As the colours dance on the ripples
Like a vision of curiosity
The illumination from the heavens
Brings a promise of life
As the beams crawl across the sky
Shouting the with joy at the open sky
Voices echoing off the clouds
There is a mesmeric quality to a sunrise colours
Like the first kiss form a beautiful woman with
Only love in her eyes
Every morning is a kiss from the heavens
Be my heaven every morning

Paradise stare down

Perfection is hard to recognize
Imperfection everywhere
Paradise stare down
Share the heat
Wondering why

Hard to see the sky

Hard to see the sky


The truth is under
so many layers
it hard to see the sky
The calls that are made bleed with irony
Yells echo off the floor as the door lays open
The screams of the children can not be heard
The toys are in the yard as your lovers clothing hangs in the trees
Your heart is gone to another as I wait by the phone
And I know it will never ring for me
As the cost builds up be on reality
The music of the cellos rakes the ground
It sounds like the cries of bullets hitting the clouds
When will it finish?
No one wins in this position
More threats come form your people
As the lightening shots across the clouds
Players sitting with you at expensive restaurants
And children eat leftovers
You look pregnant with another mans baby
But it no longer hurts me
I wish you the best in your life

Narcissistic savant

Narcissistic savant
Clearly defined
A thread amongst the clouds
Seeing through shadows
Axiom distinct
Painted on smiles
Omnipotent Idealists step aside
Rivers wash away with the tides

Getting a PHD in reality

Getting a PHD in reality
A full moon over head
The air is cool
Not a cloud in the sky
Waking up from a nebulous dream
A nightmare to reality
So surreal
I hoped it wasn’t me
The idealism honesty
Shredded in the kidnapping of three
She doesn’t get her way
Every one pays

under heaven

Red sky at both ends of the day
seize it if you can
heaven under cover
hesitate and watch it drift away
end games mindless lullabies
I lied under a blanket
Called heaven
Wondering is this the day
Carpe Diem

It starts with a blank page

It starts with a blank page
Some times the words flow
Other times the words drag
If it feels right it turns to a song
And then the words can mean much too many
Like a relationship
It starts with a blank sheet
A perfect date not a place
But who you’re with
When time stands still pick someone new
If it fly’s by in a blink of an eye
Then you have found what is true
When some one brings tranquility to your spirit
Serenity to your soul
And composure to your life
Then it is true
And then your life will give meaning to one

Butterfly in a mailbox

Butterfly in a mailbox

This makes me want to do what is right
More then before
Your actions are hurtful
Mean and deceitful
Morals that justify
This agony is a crime
Morality will take it toll
At the gate
A religious person you say you are
yet issues of morals cloud?
Your reality like is an open sore
I hope that you can look at your own reflection
In a mirror and be happy
With the imperfections
Like a butterfly in a mailbox

Bye granddad

Bye granddad


Bye granddad
I miss you granddad
I am sorry that I never got to say good bye
Talks and walks just the two of us
Making tracks in the snow
Checking traps
Taking the dogs instead of
The skidoo
The smell of the fire
And making tea
Hours away
Stories about the wolf and the bear
The battle on the hill across the river
The sky so clear
The snow so high
No prison in the air
People flow in and out
But your memory remains strong inside
Your name Willie and mine William
A little on the wild side
You had fight and I had wars
But nobody died
You passed on fighting in Edmonton
I quite drinking
Took a bottle and poured it on your grave
Good bye granddad

Mesmerizing eyes

Mesmerizing eyes

I look over and see your head resting to the side
The look is so mesmerizing and your eyes are so bright
A lonely tear rolls down
You wish out loud saying can we stay here forever
The moon light reflects off the water and
The sound of a train can be heard over the music
It sounds so romantic as the words
“You can have every thing” plays in the background
Your lips quivering as I bite my lip
Mesmerizing eyes so bright
Looking up
As the words come through
The distance so far
