Time waits
For no one, cruel
Anticipation, a
Dark mask covers the unknown future,
Waiting, careful contemplation,
Each beat lost forever,
Stolen seconds
Await
Contemplation

Hidden Pain
The pain,
Hidden behind
Closed eyes that say nothing,
Silent screams in a mist of tears
That seep through ducts of sadness and
Beauty, each tear a thought,
A call to arms,
Today
My Friend
My friend
Lies by my side,
Chest rising and falling
In rhythmic madness, eyes shifting
As dreams invade his being, his
Breath reasurring, calm,
Bringing peace to
Us all
Darkness
Darkness,
A thin veil of
Promise hidden in the
Quiet voices of yesterday.
Voices heard over and over
Bringing memories back,
Taunting us with
Silence
Every New Day
Each day
Another chance
To start again, forget
About yesterday, the promise
Of tomorrow is closer if
You open the door of
Your mind, to breathe,
Freedom
Thankful
Thankful
For family
Friends and the life we have.
Forever one, memories made
Through interactions of the soul.
A tryptophan frenzy,
Feverish bliss,
Splendid
Walking
Walking
Solemn vigil
Each step moves him closer
To redemption, thinking of you
Always
Soaring
Soaring
Heavy wings beat
A familiar song
Shared with the heavens, alive and
Alone
The Sky
The sky
Bleeds a smooth blue
Wisps of pearly white are
The genesis of every
Cool dry breeze and warm sunny day
We are witness to the
Scenic beauty
Of time
Watching
Watching
Meandering
Unchartered journeys wait
Eyes to be opened, sharing thoughts
Perceptions of each new kind soul
Each new reality
Defines us as
Just one
