Whispering Winds

Will the wind carry my name on forever

has it the strength to do so

it will continue to blow

softly and then sometimes forceful.

*

Perhaps if you listen closely you will hear my name

every time it whispers it through the trees and brush

ringing over the hills and mountains just the same

it comes in low and then turns strong at first, and then a hush.

*

Whispering winds carry my name

in everything it says

never twice quite the same

do you hear my name on it's breath

as it blows across your way.

My Love

Teardrop eyes, long, silky black hair

everything reminds me of you

reminder of how everything brings back memories of our affair

in everything I see or do.

*

Destined to see where life would bring us

all at once, we were driven apart

somewhere along that crazy highway of life

oblique of any signs for us to follow and filled with so much strife.

*

Very long and tedious

in every possible ways

we could not change or futures

or alter them to say.

Confused (A Poem For My Ex)

You left me cofused

the day you left

I felt abused

felt alone and bereft.

*

The times we spent in one another's arms

were some of the best times I ever had

I felt like I would receive no harm

I was never sad.

*

The times we lay in bed

talking about our lives that lay ahead

I wonder sometimes, if your new bf is enjoying as much

as I had.

*

The hot moments we spent with me inside you

you told me how much you loved that feeling

how it sent you reeling

the feeling of me going off inside you.

*

So now when I think back on those times

I wonder if you are reminded of thy and thine

remembering all those wonderful times

when we were as one.

Dancing On Clouds

When I'm with you

I feel like I'm dancing on clouds

and maybe it is because I want it to be us two

I truly want to be there with you, just us deuce.

We could be together

dancing in each other's arms

gliding along graceful, forever

all along the silver lining of the clouds.

And when we kiss

It would be like our first time

we would build a whole new life here

just us, you and I and the clouds.

He Comes To Me In The Darkness Of My Mind (A Poem For Mark Jay Patterson)

His name is Mark Jay Patterson

he comes to me in the darkness of my mind

where he sits and awaits me, haunts me every time

with every turn I make, and all of my every decisions.

He thinks he is in control of mine

we fight about this many times

yet he always wins;

I'm not sure where I end and he begins.

I fear he is taking me over, once more

as I feel him controlling my thoughts and actions

into my brain he bores

he is such a bastard for what he has done to me, yet I cannot control his deeds.

Oh no, here comes the pain, again

the terrible pain I associate with his being

he is like an everlasting ghost

an Almighty, always heard but never seen.

Love Letter # 5

How can I thank you, Michelle

for all you have given me

first you given me love and respect

when no one else would.

Second you show me your wisdom

of your forty one years

you are no naive girl

but a wise woman.

You have so much in your soul to give

the greatest gift you have given this soul

is my firstborn boy, girl

we know not the answer yet.

I cannot count the ways I love you

that would go into infinity if I tried

you are my lover, my soulmate and my true friend

and I thank you.

Why Am I So Sad

I wonder why I am so sad and lonely

as if I were alone

there never seems to be anyone to care for me

as I sit here in my little world

grieving only for me.

And yet I wish I would die

so I would be with the ones I love

the only ones who cared about me

yes, the ones who shared my love.
