I’m A Giver
When I say I love you,I back it up.They’re not just empty words,Flung into the wind. Everything I have,I give to the one I love,Be it my time, moneyAnd all of the above. I have a big heart,And I try … Continue reading I’m A Giver

Fighting Fair
I know you like mystery, suspense and drama,But I’m kind of tired, of living in your soap opera.So please stop the cheating, when we’re disagreeing—By raising the volume, in your condescending tone!You can’t fool me, you’re not winning the debate,You’re … Continue reading Fighting Fair
I Know Your Type
What annoys me the most, About your mannerisms, Is what I detest the most about myself. So why do I persist, In punishing you for my past? It’s not your fault, That you’re only human too! I wish I could … Continue reading I Know Your Type

I’ve trashed my home,I confess, I’m a hoarder,Full of dusty memories,I’m not a good boarder. I’ve trashed my body,By drinking, until drunk,By taking bad drugs,And eating food junk. I’ve trashed my life,And broken a nice family,And hurt the kind spouse—Who … Continue reading Garbage In, Garbage Out
Orange Ball in the Sky
Orange ball in the sky,Rising up, going high.Orange ball in the sky,Measuring life, to you and I. Orange ball in the sky,Shining bright, in my eye.Orange ball in the sky,Hovering above, to magnify. Orange ball in the sky,Inspires me, to … Continue reading Orange Ball in the Sky
My Last Poem
The poetry left me today; That little flame of pride, She made sure— To extinguish last night. And in my helplessness, All I could say: “Why did I ever think, She was going to stay?” I thought I was her … Continue reading My Last Poem
