Every poem is a bandaid placed on a wound until it heals.Blood drips,And drips,On a page onto the next until the stains disappear in what I call a field,Of dreams,Our souls manifest against all odds.To be a poet means,To put an end to your facade,And,Face everything that makes you cry.Until you smile internally,Externally.Excavating every ounce...

Not A Garderner By Choice – Day 176, Never Give Up On Your Dreamz
How have I endured the pain of your loss?Not a single clue I can conjure up,As it was your image that was magic to my eyes,Watered by your absence.Oh,How I've grown from every seed you've planted.In a garden we both took the time to grow.Until it was time to,Mow it all down and bury new...

I Just Can’t Tell – Day 175, Never Give Up On Your Dreamz
My chest feels a variety of pain I don't quite know how to define on most days.On some it feels like a popped lung,On others it's pain from a slight cough,But,Today?I can't tell.I can't tell because,I haven't found much reason to want to stay on planet Earth.A home we've been forced to call home from...

Cast Away – Day 165, Never Give Up On Your Dreamz
An outcast I've been my entire life observing every letter spewed out of mouths chewing on bits of lust,Deceit,Immoralities.I may have fallen victim to the sins God detests,But,Never did I desire to.I feel like,The only reason my soul's been stained by the ugliness of this world is because,Of the closet of Doom my inner child...

Piercing Gaze Of Victory – Day 129, Never Give Up On Your Dreamz
Doubts are like,Gargantuan stakes piercing through a veil of sheer faith propelling us through vampiric trials,Put forth by a Universe under no one's mortal control.Looking down on one's self is trivial,Needless,Tiresome as our undying task is to look up even after the day we're deceased.For no corpse is buried nor cremated face down,Staring into the...

Laminated Cries – Day 121, Never Give Up On Your Dreamz
Staring into the sun going blind,By the beauty it shines,Sounds more appealing,Staring into a cave of bewilderment without an ending in sight.But,Who am I to claim what's better for anyone?I'm still having trouble looking up at a sky without dreading what's,All in my head.Failure my thoughts conjure up,While I lay inert on my bed,Praying for...

Tripped By The Fall – Day 116, Never Give Up On Your Dreamz
Trip and fall,Trip and fall,Trip and fall!I've done more times than I can count.But,Air still flows through my flaring nostrils forcing my chest to rise,With a hope impenetrable by,Sticking to a plan made for me by a God who's shown me more love,Than,Any friend ever would while dripping blood,From wounds they've cut open.When push comes...

Carrots In A Top Hat – Day 108, Never Give Up On your Dreamz
200 fallen angels in scripture,About 200 craters on our surface,Go figure.The mark of the beast we're warned of,A digital ID system being stapled into a picture,Over every face refusing to see eye to eye with ultimatums placed before us.Scientists researching what young blood can do for an aging body,Meanwhile,Agents play pretend with masks more life-like...

A Christmas Gift – Day 90, Never Give Up On Your Dreamz
All I want for Christmas and beyond is,Words of love euphonious to my ears.A hug!From a woman full of more than holiday cheer that's,Temporary.A bond that'll last more than a handful of text messages,As she disappears into the wind.A day where I'm not wondering,"What's wrong with me?"While I get through my day by reminders of...

Chaotic Order – Day 70, Never Give Up On Your Dreamz
Chaos.Chaos cannot exist without two opposites colliding head first.Yet,No one really yearns for disorder as a species hunting for some sort of inclusion.But,It makes me wonder.Why is this world so,Anarchic?If all we really want is to be part of a circle of people who call us family,Then,Why do we fight each other so often?A rhetorical...
