She Never Knew Love
she never knew love served soft upon silver plates so she learned to taste it in sharp rusted fates fingers traced promises carved into skin a hunger for warmth in a world caving in yet even the knives could not sever her light a sun breaking through after years lost to night she stitched up the wounds with the threads of her will spun gold from the pain made the...

I thought I knew what love was
I used to think that love meant being a protector, A shield against the world, both fierce and colder, To guard you from the storms, the cuts, the tears, To keep you from the weight of all my silent fears. I thought that love was standing in the way, A wall between you and the world’s harsh sway, That my strength...

I knew I would find it somewhere
~ I drifted past the sunset where horizons make their place Imaginary lineage that artists love to trace I saw the world illumined in a shade of tangerine Beyond the treelined silhouette and shadows in between I scaled a distant mountain that was massive in its size Where I could taste the altitude amidst blueberry skies When then I saw a sparrow as it flitted on the wing And...

I shed tears today for a lady I never knew For so long my emotions faced exemption My life, created in lieu of a tragic encounter, grew At last my understanding salvaged some redemption Perceptions and thoughts of the unknown accumulated Visions of youth, sorrow, love, loyalty, and despair Through the eyes of destiny we communicated Briefly revealing how much you loved...

Who Knew
Back when I was a child, they said I was poor, but I did not know it. Until one of my teachers pointed at me and said, it’s okay for you to show it, and that you have no cause for shame. I should have asked her then, but my mind didn’t comprehend, and to this day I...

Premium Member I KNEW SHE WAS A CANDLE
The first lesson of a candle is how it loses nothing when it shares it’s light In fact…when used to light another candle it then burns twice as bright. I knew she was a candle from the day I met her… always willing to share her light…to help in any way. She possessed the power of a candle the ability...

Premium Member I Knew I would Die Here
The three hooded beings came stealthily, silently, secretively. The cobblestones gave nothing away as they sneaked past a few. I saw them, and wondered, but did not realize they were heading for me. It was too late to run, and my weapons were nowhere in sight. I thought I could take the one on the left But the sword-carrier would...

If I Knew
If I Knew If I had known our time was brief, I’d have kissed you more, sought every relief, Savored each inch you thought unkind, And cherished the scars you tried to hide. I’d have whispered “I love you” with every glance, Each fleeting second, given the chance. Perhaps deep down, I always knew, That something this fragile could not stay true. But I...

It is two a.m. I am totally non-sleepy Do I consider a sleeping pill? No. Three twenty. I am impressively awake, watching TV At 4:15 a dog licks my face, waking me up. I am on the couch, not comfortable, so I move to my bed. Both dogs move with me. We wake up at 7:41 a.m. I used to leave for...
