Winding down a path so long
Feeling like that turn was wrong
Follow along , now it has become a hill
Steeper now , I grabb the sill
Falling down , I feel a chill
Plunging in , to a deep blue sea
Now I'm floating in an eternity
Calm and tranquil , it is right here
Absent is the cold and fear
Warm and coated in a ray of gold
Kinda like , when love has hold
Read between the lines untold
And you will be in another place
At the same time as the inner space
Almost feel the cold , on your face
Feel the words and smell the story
See the truth and taste the glory
Watch the words , paint the picture
There are so many ways to experiance scripture
All though what I say is not the bible
I'm considering starting my own tribal
I hope others will learn to use the tools we call words
And expression
Its really good therapy for several forms of depression !

On the faintest waves of the winds I seem to hear a call,
It beckons my pen and prepares me for the next words to fall.
Once I lived in the light of love,
everything shone like the stars above,
What was a life to me was just a game to another,
Now it seems that my heart will never recover,
So many out there that share the same fate,
I hope they recover before its too late.

you've walked this path,
and had a taste,
wonders why ,
you had th'the haste,
smell th' air,
crisp and clear,
feel th here?
it's quiet now,
in this lonely bogg,
nicely done,with morning fog
our view,so sweet,thru th' trees,
smell th waters feel th seas,
salty smells on th' breeze,
back into the forest now,
sofly tread,feeling how,
walking slowly,feeling only,
as you drifted through,
walked this path,
saw out steps,
did you know I walked with you?

her touch...


to just feel her touch,
needed oh so much,
feeling her needs,
like fallen weeds,
or as if on a grassy meadow,
she makes my heart mellow,
dying inside,
killing my pride,
each day I slide,
into my old,and lonely world,
looking for my special girl,
and makes my lonely heart jello,
making this ol' man mellow,
please let me show,
my true love will grow,
and take this lonely fellow,
my hearts on a sleeve,
no not to grieve,
only wishes from this only soul,
wanting kisses from her is my goal,
growing old,getting bold,
feeling love true unfold,
needing now,wonders how,
when will my story be told?..........lonely soul.....M.

Faced so much , a kind soul
Grasped by hate.
An angels heart , ridden with poison daggers ,
Crushed by fate.
The light sunny glow ,
Swallowed in a dark paint show.
Endless black sealed in a tomb.
I know its waiting , just outside this room.
Holding me here under its fear.
Leaving me and abomination stuck within.
Never to feel the warmth of sun upon my skin.
Feel the love and hope growing thin.
Lost my faith , I start to spin.
Want to poke my eyes out with a pin.
But then my eyes would fail to see.
And still in pain , that I would be.
Never knowing how to be free.
And never having someone to call thee.
Oh the pain the grief the sorrow.
I could go on , way past tommorrow.
Hoping never ,any of you ,have to feel,
Oh the pain with what I have had to deal.
And with a tear I will have to seal.
Read the next , Because its all quite real.

"Posers"

I saw your picture on the screen
But was it really you?
As we wrote letters back and forth
I thought somehow I knew.

But time has passed and I can see
To you it was a game-
You toyed with my emotions
Cuz you didn’t feel the same.

But my heart dove in head first
Caught up in the lie
There is nothing you can say
So please don’t even try.

It was a game of cat and mouse
Unfortunately I lost
Wonder who the next fool will be
And how much will it cost?

To you its not real, to me it was,
Now my heart is shattered.
No wonder people give up on love
Another “poser” who has battered-

Battering a gentle heart at risk
That wanted nothing more
Than to feel true love inside
Ending up in pieces on the floor

So if you have nothing better to do
A word to the wise
Take your BS somewhere else
Cuz I don’t need your lies.

So you write me,
say goodbye
and walk away.
I am floored.
What am I supposed to say.
I got to know you well
in a brief span of time.
You let me in your heart.
I let you into mine.
Why do people have to come and go?
Why do I always find myself on the floor,
drowning in my own tears
and living all my worst fears?
Seems like I've been living
like this for years.

she found my lonely soul...

you have found my heart upon,
this oh so cold and lonely ground,
turned it oh so very up-side-down,
you lift me up to see your heart,
warmed my oh so very lonely start,
my soul is now happy,
tho some say sappy,
but nor will you tear it apart,
my trust in you,so profound,
as you lifted me from this ground,
took me within your poems and mind,
showed me your oh so loving kind,
allow'd me to hope,
you fed me my rope,
saving my lonely soul,
wraped me around,
your heart so sound,
this is what's so profound,
holds me tight,feels so right,
wishing sooner our love was found,
to you I say dance our way,
so that we may play,
our loves truest day,
smile for me,
as you will see,
yes I'll dance,
our sweet romance,
with you any day,
with you every way,
hopes I'm here to stay,
for my heart will never sway....Me to You C.C.P.

Would a million dollars buy you everything ?
Or even being famous with your name in the press ?
How about taking a walk on the golden mile ?
I had a vision in my head the other night
you had a smile on your face and you were feeling all right,
you couldn’t come down even if you tried
so hold on to that feeling till the day that you die.

Ever see the look on a little child’s face
When the sun shines bright and they’re in a happy place.
An ere to ere smile feeling safe and secure
and money don’t matter, they don’t know what it’s for.

I had a vision in my head the other night
I had a smile on my face cause I was feeling all right.
Going to hold on to that feeling for the rest of my life,
to live and die a happy man... a happy man am I.
And then I woke up with nothing much to do,
I was feeling so lonely I was feeling so blue...
I may play the lottery, maybe win a buck or two.

Don’t say it couldn’t happen baby... cause it could happen to you!

Walking down the street with a bible in your hands,
You say you want to get a look at the premise land.
You run into a gentleman with his home in his hands.
He’s living on the streets, but he’s no less then a man.
He told me he once had a million dalles cash,
Told me all of his stories about all that he had,
So don’t you try to tell me that he was borne to loose!

Don’t say it couldn’t happen baby... cause it could happen to you.

HELP ME


If I could describe the pain I feel each day
Its really horrible Fybromyalgia they say
Remember last week , I had to shovel the snow ,
Well that has effected me worse than you know
Ribs feel like they are breaking
So many things that are aching ,
and trying to deal with this all week
The pain takes over and I am becoming weak
Its all begining to eat away ,
Its getting harder to cope each day
So if your looking to help a friend ,
Please help me for I want this to end.
It hurts so much , it makes me sad
Takes its toll , I feel quite mad
I shake it tears and sears ,
I wake to wish it was the end ,
Away I wish the pain I could send.

Marooned On a cloud going West


Now I'm marooned on a cloud going west
When I boarded I thought it was for the best
seemed like a peaceful place to take a rest
Lonely and absurd it has become a test
now afloat in my fluffy nest
Forever flung to a western breeze.
Alone and quiet drifting along
Only hearing my own song
Lightly lifted above the world
Watching searching as I pass by,
Endlessly circleing and I wonder why ,
Why do I have to be so alone ,
Cast asail where noone else does roam.
Quietly drifting out of sight
Plain in view , but hidden by the night.
All alone and full of fright,

Wishing I could continue in to the light.

Faithless

cast aside by a world so cruel ,taken for granted ,
I'm such a fool.
Eager to love and please , and feel cherished.
But losing that feeling , I'm afraid it has perished.
Gentle and kind, and really quite caring , I love to help
and enjoy sharing.
Stomped on and kicked around , sneared at ,and shake their heads
What are they saying?
One look at me and thats what they are conveying.
What an angry world , so full of presumption ,
If they only knew how hard it was to get up the gumption.
To wear that smile , To face the crowd ,
When the hate and the fear has become too loud.
And you are losing the feeling to stand tall and proud.

I've lost my faith . I SAY IT OUT LOUD!

do not go gental into that good night,
is the start of loving right,
if you have your head on tight,
don't give up on love this night,
seek within to feel it fight,
break it out to make it alright,
let your lonely heart reach height,
learn to conquer loving flight,
do not go gental into that good night,
don't give up on love this night,
passions kiss,learn to kiss your knight,
find him right,hold him tight,love tonight.....M1313

Heavy is the way that I walk with a limp,

I have no cane, but they call me a pimp,

Casting aside all the people who doubt me,

And tried to think they could do it without me,

Many are the ways that I've been dismissed,

Or left a situation, led on and pissed,

How are the times, now I'm not around,

Did you become the champ, or get put down,

Did you decide to stay or decide to bail,

Or do they want to throw your ass under the jail??
