I just want you to know

In our lives, we will meet an uncountable number of people in the many places that our life's paths will take us. Some of those may just be for a few brief moments while others maybe longer, any one of them can and will change the very essence of who you were. This poem is dedicated to all of those that have touched me whether it be good or bad for because of you I am now than that you see.


I just want you to know.


I just want you to know that
I miss you and the love
that we once had more and
more every single day, I know
they say that time heals our
wounds and that we move on
eventually, but just so you
know It is not always true for
your memories will never fade
and they shall always remain
for all these tears that fall down
my face for you when I
am alone, still carry the very
thoughts and feelings of you
every single day, I truly do
believe that in our short lives
that we all live, love will come
and love will go but if you are
one of those lucky enough to
have fate on your side you will
meet that one person who is
special over all others that we
meet they will be that one
whom you will always in your
remember forever through all
the ends of time for the true
love you shared while you
were together was very strong
and deep, that one you still
maybe with forever or maybe
even for just a few days or even
weeks, the one who woke your
sleeping soul above any and
all others that you will ever seek,
the very one that you judge all the
rest, the one that rose above a
caused your heart skip a beat
as time will attest.
I found that one soul within
you, no matter where it is in
this world that you may be
and as I am sitting here right
at this very moment under the
millions of stars across the
night sky with all my memories
of you and me, I just wanted to
reach out to say thank you so
very much for not only being
such a big part of my life for
just that brief moment, but for
the piece of your heart and
soul that you left inside of me
that shall now always be a
part of who I am and has made
the reflection of whom you see.

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 a...

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...

Happily ever after amen.

Happily ever after amen.  Every now and then you will meet someone that makes your heart begin to pound so hard that it feels as if it will break through your chest or crack a few ribs at best, as you can hear  your blood flowing through  your veins like a mighty river fed by the rains of angry massive wintkrms to the sea also making it hard to breathe as you start to feel the heat coming from somewhere down deep in your soul smoldering until you see her beautiful face then your heated passion takes control igniting a raging fire the is now burning out of control as it feels like it is two hundred fifty degrees and your boiling from the inside, as tears fall from your eyes as their sheer beauty is so bright it leaves you feeling blind, and when they look up and smile at you the oh so real feeling of panic hits you right in the face as you freeze up talking nothing but gibberish losing all concept of speech and losing control of your knees falling to the ground as if you w...
