I know you know best
But I promise you this
Always avoid
A bluebottle’s kiss!

enough
it wasn’t enough
that i had all i ever dreamed of
it wasn’t enough
that i had
a partner
a child
a home
it wasn’t enough
that i was always employed
always healthy
always having a place to go
it wasn’t enough
that i never had
one day of hunger
one night of cold
one day of heat
one night of wanting
one day of going without
the heart is always hungry
always wanting
always craving
always demanding
always seeking
always dreaming
always wishing
nothing was
nothing is
nothing ever will be
Enough.
When enough is never enough
When enough is never enough –
Endlessly caught up
Chasing dreams
Chasing winds
Chasing leaves falling
Off trees
Time slips past
Days follow dawns
Until one final long
Goodnight
An ‘I Love You’
My heart has ached
My ears have strained
My soul has watched
My eyes have weeped
My spirit has prayed
For an ‘I Love You’
My heart still aches
My ears still strain
My soul keeps watch
My eyes still weep
My spirit prays.
Note to Self
Too much dessert
Is a fail –
No resistance
(I feel ill)
Changing my Mind
I used to think tenacity was good.
Now I think, it is not enough.
I used to think my courage would see me through.
Now I think, it is not enough.
I used to think I could do it all.
Now I ask, will I even start?
I used to think my life was worth my breath
Now I pray, help me survive this day.

Merry Christmas! 🎁🎄🎁
Beneath
I felt his shoulder beneath his shirt
As he appeared before me
And as he pleasured me
I could feel his shoulder
Beneath his shirt
Not Much I Know
There is not much I know about him
From when I first set eyes upon him
And a single look took my breath away
I never knew then how so amazingly
Our paths would cross
How he was already in my life
That I only had to wait
There is not much I know about him
What he feels or what he thinks
All I know is all I have
Precious moments
Tender memories
Stolen kisses
Eyes meeting eyes
Lips kissing lips
Hands touching hands
And after so many open doors
Of so much wasted time
And fallen tears
And smiles
There is not much I know about him
Being You
Always
Be the best
Be the best that you can be
Because the world needs you
It needs the best that only
You can be
