As large boulders weep,
Tears stream down sharp cheeks of stone:
Sobbing precipice....

When cyan night's 
raspberry moon
is dipped in softness 
of the afterglows, 
I gaze at that glossy
first evening star between 
creamy fingers of 
my cherry palm, 
which trace lunar kins -
those angelic fireflies, 
twinkling and pirouetting, 
like a golden blush ~
serenading in 
lucid flames of 
lustrous...

I regret
Not speaking up when I should have
Spewing when I should have been quiet
Not saying I love you
Slinging my anger
Being impatient with others
Bowing to fear
My flaming ego

I regret
I've judged others
Lying without blinking an eye
Living in greed
Lusting for people, places and things
Gross indifference
Ignoring God and his...

Never let PRESENT
Become the PAST at which you 
Look back from the FUTURE and  
Perceive with regret
What you should not have let drift 
Seize the moment live THE NOW

Footnote:
The Future is a mystery which starts with the magic in the Present. 
Please take time...

as the weight of my breath becomes
one heavy mist gathering smoke 
on the floor, until i holler inside my lungs
as if to collapse or disintegrate
into a pool of mashed bones… 

i call you privately

a silence totally numbing my senses,
through nipped murmurs as we are now
strangers...

All regrets, in every backward flashback
leave bitter tastes like remorseful morsels
  left drowning in your tear welled eyes
    each day was longer and lower
      lower and loathing
        exposed naked...

Perhaps regrets sadly
Burn holes where pain forms
Even loving madly
Won’t stop these dark storms

Flaming comets burning
Souls joined two as one
Wanting, lusting, yearning
Fire that lit the sun

Dreamers, lovers thwarted
You were my soul’s light
Argued, angry, parted
Guilt paints that black night

Praying angels’ embrace
Wrap their wings ‘round you
Lonely silence replace
The...

The windows of regret are open now
I long to drift out into the quiet night
But now to my memories I must bow
Holding on to heartaches oh so tight

The window is covered in golden thread
Which moves in rhythm with the breeze
The silken colors mourn my dead
And...

Once upon a time I was in love with him beyond any balance of the imagination 
that you could ever imagine or even read in the story. My heart was so content it 
was full  of the passion for love . My heart pumped...

I never liked the smell of lilacs although they were always
your favorite flower.
When did you stop bringing them home?  I never noticed, 
Wish I had.

I always thought walking through pine-scented woods was such
a bore, kicking leaves, how foolish I thought, and didn't
hesitate to tell...

some days i wish upon a star,
that you'd come back one day.
you took my heart and shattered it,
and you took my life away.

i thought we'd be together forever,
but that didn't last very long.
the last thing that you said to me was goodbye,
and i said so...

Find yourself
Come face to face
Against a wall or
In a warm embrace.

See yourself
A slivery shadow
Eager to pounce
ready to know.

Touch yourself
A string of words
Snapped by emotion
Fired by verbs.

Smell yourself
A certain stench
Washed in blood
Do not flinch.

Taste yourself
A salty rage
Bitter as bile
Or sweetened by age....

Sitting reminiscing
About the subtle signs
Along one’s journey
The roads not traveled
The messages so hard to read
Reminders meant for the soul
Heart longings heard
And those that aren’t
Life passing by
Not taking time to play
Invitations postponed
Believing there’d always be another day
Friends taken for granted
So few opportunities fully grasped
Yet life there...
