Live your life for today

Live your life for today

When you need to work so hard for
love, then it was never really
meant to be and no matter
how much it hurts to walk
away you need to make it be.
You have got to open up
your eyes, then finally you
will see, that the ship sailed
long ago leaving you all
alone by yourself in nothing
but an empty sea.
Sometimes you can feel
like you are all alone though
people are all around you
and though you reach out
and try to talk to them they
never hear a sound, they
make excuses to you and
even tell you lies, and when
you question them about it,
now your bad guy. So now
you cannot move forward
and you should never look
back you feel like you are
trying to fight your way
out from a grocery sack.
So you finally decide to make
change instead of always
feeling like you are a fool
you grab your things and
pack your bag with nothing
left around, you are now
feeling still all alone but a
new path in your life has
opened so try to find a
new home! You try to make life
easier doing everything that
you possibly can but no,
your not good enough your
only just in my plans, feeling hurt
and rejected, finding out
more lies, they make you
out to be the bad guy, That
is wrong do not you ever
apologize just for loving
someone you thought cared
because you embrace love
freely no matter what
It is that find out there,
never let anyone take what
you have inside if they don't
want what you have, kick them
to the curb, never run away
and hide. One day I promise
you the right one will come along
someday might not be tomorrow
or the next so never live your
in the past with your memories
always live your life for today.

When I close my eyes

When I Close my Eyes I might not be able to change the world and I might not be able to change your mind I might not be able to make you love me but I can dream about It when I close  my eyes late at night when I am living somewhere in my mind for  that is where  I go every chance  When I want to escape All the violence and the hate a place where you and I walk hand and hand Down the peaceful streets At night after our date A place that is filled with laughter and tears drinking margaritas on the beach with you while we are dancing in the rain where I always smile and I forget all the pain a place where peace has won the war and race matter not any more where we can all now dance out in the streets rich or poor now all live next door to door a place where the sun shines every day and there are no dark clouds anymore where there are no chains that bind us all and we all matter bi

It has been 10 years since I wrote my first book.

  "A story of one man's epic love for his son who is not of his blood." One day I was woken up by a dream I think it was really a nightmare I was alone or so I thought, I was seeing shadows and I kept hearing voices whispering in my ear so I started listening and writing it down, I still do that today. That was ten years ago and with those words, I wrote my first book., The Battle Lost: Ryder's Birth, It was a whopping fifty-two pages each a separate piece of poetry with extremely bad grammar, misspelled words, and no punctuation I had a good friend go through it when I got it back there were so many red marks I flashed back to high school. It has been on Amazon's top ten Epic Poetry (Free) in the Kindle Store for ten years. Ryder is now eleven years old and doing awesome it really was an epic battle physically, mentally, and emotionally fought in Parker County, Texas. DNA does not matter if you love that child enough and I Proved that. Actually, Attorney Bethel T

Will Still

Will Still The sun will still shine and birds will still sing the rain will still fall along with the leaves from the trees while the waves will still crash down upon the sandy beach  snow will still fall in the mountains in the winter at least who knows how deep the flowers will still bloom when it comes to the spring the rivers will still flow and the fish will still swim in the oceans and lakes birthdays will still come to blow out candle sticks christmas will still come except there will be one person less that would be me Just more food for you to eat maybe less presents under the tree then a new year will still come the next will still too bombs will still drop and bullets will still fly killing innocent people who will  still die in wars around the world before breakfast I never knew why the moon will still rise every single  Night just as the sun will fall in the  west making love to each other as they have done now for ages humans will still fight over some thing called religi
