You and I

Is she out there? Maybe or maybe not I tend to believe she still is for she still lives in my dreams and in my ink maybe just maybe she will one day read what I have written and use my words to follow the flow of my ink back to where it started once upon a time deep down in my lonely soul.

You and I

From that very fateful day that we first
met I knew that I was in love with you
then from the night of our very first kiss
when all of the sparks that flew my heart
was pounding out in Morse code -.-. -.-. -.-.
yes yes yes, my soul said I do before I
could even ask will you, and my mind
was just a mess as it thought to itself
"Oh, my lord what am I gonna do?"
Because they all knew that you had me
at that very instant when my eyes saw you
standing there wearing those white jeans
and a pretty sweater with hair blowing in the
warm spring breeze with sparkles in your
eyes, that I had already fallen madly
deeply in love with you. You see I have
always wanted to live in one of those
once upon a time through a happily ever
after and forever just like in all of those
fairytales you read for I had even wished
for someone just like you on every single
star falling that I had ever seen shooting
across the night time skies just as I have
spent a fortune or two making wishes on
every wishing well hoping that they
would come true that I could find
across this entire world wishing that I
would find you so that one day you
would be mine, so I want to thank you
for loving me too and I promise you
that all of those wishes were not wasted
because of all our love will always be true.
Now I know in my heart that fairy tales
really do come true, and that at least this
happily ever after was written just for me
and you, and all of the stars that are
up in the night skies will never quite be
bright enough to shine for you and me
while all of those wishing wells are now
filled with our joyful tears of love and
happiness that we share every morning
when we wake up in love with each
other after making love to one another
together with me and you and you and I.

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...
