Single grain of sand

It felt as if he was moving so
much faster than anything around
him as his heart started beating faster and pounding harder then
it had ever before, that's when he
noticed the clock that was hanging up on the wall had either stopped or slowed way down to a crawl  "what was going on," he thought
to himself "Did I finally crack and go insane? is this just a dream?
For that is what it seemed to him
and it all started when she had
walked in to the room, it felt as if
"No, that cannot be" time itself
slowed then stood still, refusing
to move on and even a single grain
of sand in an hourglass on the
desk just kind of hung there, almost like it was floating in the
air, he then looked over at her
and wondered who she was, he had not even a clue, all he knew
was she was the most beautiful
woman he had ever seen  staring
for what seemed like many hours
studying everything about her all
her curves and her gorgeous lips
the color of her eyes and the way  her hair fell over her breast, then he started to realized that he had
fallen in love or maybe already  loved her he was not sure, just
as he heard a weird sound, it was
something like a hissss, humming,
or a murmur and listened intently,
it was two voices coming from within himself, he could hear his
heart and soul whispering "she is
the one who we have been waiting for all this time" and then he heard
other voices begin to speak back
and forth as her heart and soul
started telling all her secrets of
how to find the path to leads to
her heart and the key that opens
the door to her soul who had been
locked away all this time by regret
and sorrow of bad relationships and love that did not last, just as
music begin playing it was now
all around everywhere when their
two hearts started beating as one
together a beautiful symphony
with a melody of love that must have some how caused her to move forward in time as she begin
to smile then reach out grabbing him pulling him closer and hold on
tightly as they both danced slowly
around the room as two their two
souls reminisced about their past
lives together as two made love.

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...
