The War

In our lives that we all live at one time or another, we will become addicted to something or someone at least one time, it is that single battle that will decide the path we take until the end. Please I ask you if you know an addict or are one yourself there is light at the end of the tunnel, unfortunately, you or we and yes that is myself included are the only ones who are able to find it, you can have a million people fighting for you, but you yourself are the only one who can decide your fate......

 My war still continues to this day....

"The War"

Every person who is born on this earth
has demons that live inside, it is a constant
battle through our life that we all must
fight just to stay alive, every decision that
we make is something that we ourselves
control, so choose wisely and with just
cause they battle us for our soul, the
war between both good and evil just so
you can understand, is with good from
God and the angels above and the evil
that is born from man, this war was
started a long time ago before man’s
time had first begun when God and the
angels cast Satan out so then he cursed
all of man from within, our conscious is the
difference it is supposed to know right
from wrong but with so many daily
temptations that are now thrown at us,
our demons have grown more strong our
inner demons grow in strength with
every bad choice or decision we make but
addiction the evil that has no cure has now
let our demons escape, causing the coming
destruction of mankind it is unlike anything
man has ever known while taking away
everything and everyone and then leaving
our children alone and with no home.
Unfortunately however this war we fight
will more than likely never end as the darkness
grows stronger every day, you ask how I
know I will tell you because I fought my
own demons for many years as they battled
me to escape, I finally beat those demons
the ones who lived down deep inside, fighting
them hand to hand to tell you the truth I
nearly died, but then with no hope left I
prayed hard to anyone who could hear my
cries, so a hand reached down from out of
the skies to help to my feet armed me the
weapons of love and hope piercing their
evil with my sword of light casting those
demons straight back to hell with the
strength of a thousand angels given to me
as a gift from He who lives up in heaven as
God fought with me right there by my side,
you see the battles and the wars we all fight
against the demons, it is getting harder
to fight every day because of the darkness it
will never leave for the demons are here to stay.

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...
