  footprints in the sand Somebody once told me that that people will come and go into our lives each one for a different reasons some we meet In passing, never to be seen again some are a little long either for work, like the postman or as short-term friends others are meant to stay a little longer like girlfriends, husbands, best friends and those whom we know our whole lives who come and go like the sun and the moon every morning and the nighttime then we have those that we try to hold on to for a little longer because they danced with our souls at one time or another either way, what I am trying to say is each one of those people we're in our lives for us to learn something, no matter how big or small and to help us grow as human beings and, in return, they learned the same. Then there are the ones we never forget that somehow have found a way to stay in our hearts and souls. They have held our hands as we walked the path together leaving a lasting impression like finding footpr...

Even Still Good morning sweetheart, I hope and pray that your day is just as beautiful as you are, well, at least you are in my mind along with your pounding heart and bounding soul my wish is you will think about me as long as you, possibly can or at the very least a little while, for every time a memory of you, which by the way is always the vision of absolute beauty crosses my mind I just want to reach out to hold you and tell you that I love you more than there are shining stars up above in the darkness of the midnight skies or how the Aurora dances across the northern sky while your beauty is so much brighter than a hundred thousand suns raging with the heat of over a thousand out of control fires burning a deep-down desire is what I feel on the inside of me whenever I think about you, for all the love I feel for you is one that shall never fade away or even die lasting longer than forever ever will and yes longer than an eternity, which is really not all that ...

Judgement Do not ever judge me for you have never  been where I have been or seen what I have  saw or even heard  the things I never asked to  hear. Do not ever judge me for you have never walked in my shoes or wore my clothes or even worn the many hats which I had to bear upon my head. Do not ever judge me for the things that I may have said or what I might even say today or maybe  even tomorrow  or what I may or might not have  written now or in  the past present or future as you have never lived in any of the chapters of my life or spilled any of my ink that drips with regret and strife. Do not ever judge me for you have never seen the wars that I now fight or ever fought in any of my battles that I now fight or lost the things I have lost or have forgotten of what I cannot remember. Do not ever judge me on the places I have lived or where I now live in or the cars I have driven or now  drive for  there have been times I have had no p...

Sometimes   Sometimes when it is late at night and everyone else is  asleep and the only things that are moving is in my head and the pounding of my heart as my mind is going about  a hundred miles an hour trying everything I can to slow it down so I can fall asleep close my eyes and begin to dream all about you and I getting together alone finally with no  one else around our clothes are thrown all over the ground as we smile and laugh and giggle while we whisper about  the things that turn us on as I get a little bit closer telling you how I love you more than anybody else who came before,  which I say from the bottom of my heart as I reach over and pull you in a little bit closer and I kiss you on your lips as I start to write a brand-new poem across your sexy body  that really turns you on. So I tell myself to slow down and  breathe as I watch your chest begin to heave up and down  as I start to spill my ink starting right in the center o...

What is a lie: To make an untrue statement with intent to deceive. She was lying when she said she would sleep with you if you helped her out. She lied about her past experience. : to create a false impression. Deceit is the act or practice of deceiving—lying, misleading, or otherwise hiding or distorting the truth. The word deception often means the same thing as a lie and is perhaps more commonly used. Lies Broken promises, broken dreams, broken love, broken arms broken hearts hurt like hell no matter how you broke it or even say it they all hurt the same, the pain though may not be precisely the physical kind it could be emotional, maybe even metaphysical, or a little bit spiritual, even a little of all three, I mean four any way you know what I mean because it does not matter the outcome, it will be the same because time heals all wounds, so they say, and for the most part, it is true it does, but the problem is what I found is even though the pain from physical trauma will fade...

  Old songs I was driving down the highway listening to  the radio all alone like I always am going nowhere  in particular, trying to clear my head with a  change in scenery with the windows rolled up  singing at the top of my lungs songs like 1985 by Bowling for Soup anything by Blink-182 and Salt -N-Pepa Shoop minding my own damn business  and not bothering anybody else when the radio  stopped playing I looked down hit the on-off button  a couple of times but nothing at all it was dead I  thought I must have blown a fuse so I yelled shit then I slammed my hands down hard on the steering  wheel yanking the car to the right and pulling over  to the side of the road slamming my brakes and  skidding to a stop, I closed my eyes and took a huge  breath thanking God that it was only me on the road  then I heard a tune faintly at first, begin playing through  the speakers and it was not coming from my radio I...

  Poetry is all the memories of our past, the tears we shed today, and our thoughts and dreams of tomorrow. Poet Richard M Knittle Jr. A Poet's Journey

I love you more You may not know it yet but you will one day because I love you more than when the sun sets and the moon rises over us while we are laying on a blanket on the sand underneath us making love by the fire at the beach. Yes it is true I love you more than all the stars in the skies at night I love you more than you think I might I love you more than time itself with forever as a start I love you more every day no matter where you might be at I love you yes even more than you could ever see I love you more than the highest mountain peak I love you more than the deepest blue sea I love you longer than the longest yard I love your body from your head to your toes I love your mind, heart, and soul I love you more than anyone until the day I die then I will love you more from down below or way up high I love you more than when the lights are on I love you more when the lights go off I love you more in your dreams when you sleep at night I love you more and more after every fight...

I'm lucky and blessed that I am 57 and still have my mom and dad who have been married 57 years not all of them great years but nevertheless, I see them every day since I have a roof over my head living in their house and food in my mouth with plenty to drink. I have four sons three of them men who are not addicts and are better than I will ever be and never been in jail and provide for their families and I am proud of them; I have a job that I get to work from home, a car that's reliable, and Ryder who surprises me every day w...

  Maybe wishes come true Maybe one day when you are standing right here next to me I will reach up into the night skies a catch a falling star so we could both make a wish upon it and when we were done close our eyes and I would throw that star as hard as I could into the sky and let it fly back to where it had been once before, shining its beautiful light down upon the very spot you and I were standing, transforming the surrounding night to light up like a thousand fireflies all around us while we are staring into each other's eyes as it seems right out of a dream as my wish I believe is coming true taking me back in time to when I was at my finest right before your eyes causing your knees to go weak and your heart starts to beat as your soul reaches out to mine just as my soul reaches into yours and they begin to dance slowly together up around the moon and stars above holding onto one another tightly deep into the night when they started making love while listening to the sound ...

In my life this one I now lead, I in all these many years have never seen somebody more incredibly beautiful  than thee, barely a woman still in your teens was  the first time I had ever seen this beauty that stands before me, watching year by year becoming more beautiful than the year before have surpassed what I have known is beautiful to transform into another kind of beauty which is far more than this world shall ever know, you are by far sexier than any beauty  queen, as your soul is as old as time itself, and want you to know that it reaches out to me late at night to  wake my sleeping soul so they could talk about the  days before in other lifetimes in which they lived as  friends and lovers for ten thousand years, then they look into each other's eyes they start to dance among  all planets and the stars up in the midnight skies when  they are finished they hold on to each other tight as  they make love to one another until the morning...

  Maybe Someday Maybe someday on a hot and steamy midsummer night on a blanket under the full moon's glow, along with about a billion stars lighting our way around while casting it down upon our two very naked bodies amongst all the Poetry in God's creations, I will create a new type of classic poem that shall one day become a treasured piece of art, yet it will not be on any type of blank canvas with paint like Michael Angelo in the Sistine Chapel, no, I will write it all over you, it shall start with a "Once upon a time but we all know this is not to be any child's nursery rhyme, for when we kiss it caused a chain reaction deep down inside of me, starting my heart to pound and my blood to flow freely making me have a premature ink ejaculation to occur, spilling my ink everywhere splashing across your beautiful, perfect breast writing words I will never forget, so I looked down at you and softly whispered in your ear what I had just read "flowers are pretty and s...

  Hey lady Hey lady, I just wanted you to know that I think you are a special kind of beautiful, unlike this world has ever known, they say that beauty comes from within one's own self and I believe that to be true for I never in my life have known such a rare and perfect beauty that is you, a heart that has been unbroken, that is full of patience and under standing will love you until the end, her soul, you can then capture and hold so dear you, wish it would never end. Love is something that is very hard to find, but worth it if can, so you must try to find it every where, when you truly hold it, you will finally understand. Taking chances to find the one that is worth the pain when wrong, half the fun is getting there until she comes along, once you find her, you need to hold on to her tight so that love will not run away, then kiss her and tell her so every day and night.
