Missing In Action


Missing In Action.

Can you hear the sobs
behind her "I'm ok?"
See the tears that run
behind her smile?
Feel the stress
within her sweet caress?
My friend, your heart's
been M.I.A. a while...

Overcoming



Overcoming

I was trained to swallow my pain 
instead of my pride. 
To hide any hurt I have ever felt inside.
Be nonchalant whenever I have
been denied the things I want,
and have this air of "I don't even care" 
around me.
The pen has helped me deal 
with what I feel and been a valve
to vent the pressures I've concealed
within and soothe my wounds like salve...
But I found a better medicine
the day I chose to let her in
and close the gash that bled within
for nearly 30 years.
I feel better than I've ever been. 
A post traumatic veteran 
relearning it's ok for me to share.

No Amends


No Amends


He called to her...


but all she heard

was echoes of her pain

resembling her name

drowning in the sound

of shattered trust...

Didn't I?




































Didn’t I?

Share those
deepest parts
with me…

Those parts
where thoughts
take shape 

and emotion is drawn
from the chasm
of forgotten dreams,

from whence
beauty and art
tend to vent like steam.

For I wish to feel
the slip
in your tectonics.

Endure the rumblings
and grumblings
accompanying the sonics

of your citadel walls as they fall,
and your heart cries out
in a clarion’s call

of, “Hear me!”
But have I not
always listened?

Did you not beseech
I put an end
to my petitions

to share the weight
of your
undeserved burdens?

Those you tried to hide
with veils of “I’m all right”
and “I’m good” curtains?

Did I not?

Misunderstood




Misunderstood

We are not necessarily shy.
Not necessarily timid.
Not collectively antisocial,
although our engagement
does have its limits.
Our small talk inept,
yet in topics of heft
we effervesce
with insightful opinions.
Those like-minded souls
be our minions.
The side line is our dominion.
Where large numbers congregate
we feel the pull and coagulate.
Gravitating despite being strangers.
We are not necessarily shy.
We are introverts.
