well i geuss i should tell you a little about my self. i am a very open minded person and will always give my point of view if asked.
i also bileve that poetry is at the sole of every person's heart its only the people that have learned to put it on paper
or onto a canvis or into there lives, that will truly understand me.

The walls of comfort
The simplicity of fear is to hide from all
That’s the comfort that comes from within these walls
But no healing comes from hiding
Yet only the temporary relief of pain that its providing
The shades of gray now cover my once vivid walls
The once flowing colors of my room now doused by my remorse
Their looming shade not letting my emotions run their course
A haven of safety they provide
With all my hurt in them I confide
The only thing that is always there
But there help was like a married mans affair
A mistress in the night that would lend her body but not her sole
The emotional effects would leave their toll
The feelings of compassion not coming from its clutches
But unwanted attachment I feel with my flesh it touches
No arms to lay my head and no words to comfort
Only the silence to bare my sorrow
And until my eyes awake to tomorrow
------------------------------------------------------------
meting with a stranger glance
but stare with a lovers romance
once people filled the rooms
now with there eyes locked silence consumes
no words spoken
no assumptions made
while the lovers looks cascade
questions could not be asked
there attraction could not be masked
the fire draws them closer
finally the silence is broken
and thrown into the world of the unspoken

Everlasting talent
He paints a picture with his words
Every thing he touches is his canvas
He can see beauty in despair
He can make love or hate fill the air
His hands move quickly across the page
His words show talent beyond his age
His soul is at the heart of every word
So that his feelings would not go unheard
You must look deep to see his true technique
He will not show those how do not seek
The meanings of his words vary
On his stream of imagination the true meaning is carried
The look in his eyes is almost transparent
Yet the love in his words is inherent
Only to his mind he limits this reality
Making him see his true mortality
Knowing he will not live through the ages
Yet hopping his words will live forever on these pages
That his words could bring light on his existence
And keep his sorrow at a distance

Loves form
I try to ignore
But too long I have bore
This burden and this weight
This undeniable state
My true feelings have laid hidden from view
Hooded and cloaked in shadow and lies
But it has only led to my demise
To tear me apart
And rip me limb from heart
When I realized what I needed to do
I hade no choice but to turn to you
You could always answer my question
Even when my eye tuned red with obsession
But it is not wisdom that I seek
It was to be in your arms when I was weak
To deny myself of this reality
Would certainly lead to my mortality
It seems like I could live forever in your eyes
And never fall to my demise
Do I trust to fate
Or make my own mistake
There is something more than want
There is something more than need
There is some thing more for my heart to exceed
The same thing I feel with you
Something that my heart has longed to pursue
I have thought and I have prayed
No longer can I be afraid
To see you face to face
And fall victim to your grace
I must take this chance
To mingle with hate or romance
We could last forever
Or fall Casualty to an endeavor
To whether the storm
And maybe watch love take form
But to ether end
You will always be my best friend
