Star crossed tragic lovers

Star crossed tragic lovers

If you look real hard up at all 
the beautiful 
shimmering stars out in the midnight skies 
far away from the city, the smoke and 
haze, away from all the man made lights 
some where out in the country side
where the only thing you will see is the 
beautiful Poetry in all of Gods
creations 
among all the beauty of the scenery 
where you will see about a billion
stars times ten or more out in
the Milky Way 
galaxy and other celestial entities and 
even the pearly gates of heaven and 
maybe even Saint Peter himself 
if you are very lucky, a place 
where our 
souls are from but even further beyond 
that is where all of time had first begun 
it is right there where you 
will find 
all of the star crossed tragic lovers like 
Romeo and Juliette still in love together 
in a death do you part kind of love but you 
will not if it is not a real true love just like 
theirs is just as they both only wanted 
in life like all of us are looking for, but can
only dream of  the kind of love 
that knows no end or any kind of
boundaries as in love like that 
of Mark Anthony
and Cleopatra or even like the West Side Story 
the love that will always 
transcend life 
and death to be forever ever lasting just 
like the tale of Tristan and Isolde who 
was pledge to marry the King but loved 
his nephew instead both died horrible 
deaths still in love with one another so if 
that is the kind of love you are looking 
for then you need to look up at the
stars up in the midnight skies
high above 
and maybe you just might be the lucky one 
and see a big bright shooting star falling 
across another galaxy far far away then
wish real hard and hopefully it will be 
one those star crossed lovers and they will 
hear your pleas then take pity and grant 
you the love we seek so you and me can 
find and be together like all of those lovers 
forever throughout all eternity at least that 
is the wish I just made on that shooting 
star what happens next? Well as in any 
and every once upon a time fairy tale 
happily ever after, we will just
need to wait 
and see when the next chapter is released. 

The end or is it?

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...
