To my loving wife

You are my love
You are my life
You are the one
I call my wife
A dream
An angel
And yet more
The air I breathe
What I live for
The beauty
That my eyes desire
That warms my soul
And stokes my fire
The one whose touch
Can stop my heart
And make me yearn
When we’re apart
For all these things
That you can do
My heart proclaims
that I love you

unwanted child

Just one moments passion
Can change the world you know
Bringing forth a life
Who over time will grow
To be another person
Another precious life
Laughing living loving
In the face of strife
But from that moments passion
It does not have to be
If you just take a moment
To cover up your wee
Stop a life from starting
Stop a babys’ cry
Stop the need to ask yourself
The burning question why
Why were you so foolish
Why did you take risks
Why did you not think ahead
That it would be like this
Live your life with passion
But let yourself be free
All it takes is to show some
responsibility

Unseen words

No one’s here to read it
So why should I write
No one else will see it
But that’s still alright
I write the words that move me
No one else need see
What remains important
Is what it means to me
I write and I feel better
A straight and simple truth
I write to gather wisdom
Perhaps to capture youth
And though these words may perish
Into cyber space
I’ll know they were written
And put here in this space.

You are gone

You were my friend
I knew you well
But now
You are just gone
So many things
We could have done
Now I must carry on
You were too young
It was not fair
You had so much to do
Things I must do in your stead
I dedicate to you
That is it
What can I say
It’s over
You are gone
I am here
but you are not
and life carries on

To my wife

You’re my heart
You’re my soul
You make me feel whole
You’re my spirit
My life
You’re more than my wife
You’re my friend
My companion
The woman I love
You’re the image I picture
Of angels above
You’re the dream I once dreamed of
That would not come true
All of these things
Are what make you, you

Insomnia

The sun has set
Yet I’m awake
It seems I just can’t sleep
All the worries
Of the day
Into my mind do creep
I wish I could just shut them off
But
It is not to be
As much as I might wish for it
There is no peace for me
All these things
I know are wrong
And know not what to do
Swim around inside my head
And in my conscience to
But I must leave them for tonight
That is for sure what's best
Answers will be easier
Once I’ve had some rest
