I want to be

 I want to be


Hey Baby, I just wanted to leave a note so
you would know how much you mean to me,
and even though I know we had not seen
each other in a couple of years. We always
wrote to each other, keeping up with one
another always fanning a spark that is now
a fire and love is always a gamble, but with
you, I will place that bet even though it may
be way too early for some. I have already.
fallen deeply in love with you again, so now
I want to be that memory when you are all
alone, you know, the one that makes you
smile when you hear your favorite song,
that one you roll the window down to when
the sun comes out to warm your heart and
soul on a cold winter's day, I want to be the
memory that you think about when you and
all your friends are out, wondering why you
have those sparkles in your eyes and that
grin on your face when you remembered
the lake. I want to be the one you feel when
you are all alone in bed at night. Who makes
you feel all right with just the scent of
me still lingering in the air from that special
night that you and I held on tight until the sun
came up when the daylight found us making
love, then I want to be sitting there next to you
holding hands at that beach with a fire roaring
on a blanket just as the nighttime comes,
looking up at all the stars up in the skies
looking a lot like fireflies sparkling in your
beautiful eyes when we turn gray, thinking
back about when we were young and then
the day we met it made me so thrilled that
I won that bet just as they caught us by the
rising sun holding on to one another while
We are making love all over again. and then
a smile spreads across my face, remembering
that day when my phone rang and I could
hear your voice asking me to marry you
and without a breath, I said yes yes yes
because baby, not only are you a dream,
come true you are the best muse I have
ever had I have missed you, as I still do
counting down the days until we wed and
I place that ring upon your finger with
both of us knowing it means forever,
forevermore.

I Love You

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...
