Confused
Is it all just propaganda
to fulfill a carefully planned agenda?
Where do I go
to really know?
What is the truth;
am I a sleuth?
If I cannot trust the evening news,
I'll just stay home and sing the blues!

as homilyresults may vary
when words pursue their quarry
people turn wary
simple is better
even in Dear John letter
feelings unfetter
angry verbs go rogue
no matter how softly spoke
estrangements invoke
lurking cold as ice
gray emptiness can entice
psyche pays the price
assessing regret
of what...

Comfort ZoneIn shadows deep, she seeks her rest,
Where pain's embrace feels like a test.
Her heart, a fortress, cold and still,
Where echoes of her anguish fill.
The girl, once bright, now lost in night,
In comfort found in endless...

Insanity and RealityIn the halls of my mind I walk as I ponder,
Over things that trouble me, big and small,
Over things that tear me asunder;
As though I was made for this toll.
And I burn and melt and...

fragileIs it possible that a flower can regrow?
you have to leave the roots, they say
but how can I know?
Are the roots still there and

Analysis is paralysisEbb and flow of tides,

and your love riddled with lies.

Despite repeating cycles,
foolishly,...

Haunted by Your GhostEach dawn, I wake up to the ghost of your voice,
Your words I once cherished, now haunt my choice.
For without your tender touch, the night stands so still,
No comfort is found, as darkness brings its...
