A note

think of me this one last night....
how I may get out of this plight
of being single and free
as many want to be
but few truly manage in happiness.

Tribute to a Woman....

As the night draws to it's end
I long for a soft breath
next to mine
I miss the lazy smile
as the sun rises
the softest kiss
on my cheek
the smell of clean hair
as it brushes my face
the gentle presence
of a woman........

She who will smile
and support me
even in my worst
and cheer me at my best
I would gladly
give my life
and all my love
for such a woman......

For I am but half
without someone so sweet
to spoil and love
living is not life
without sharing it
with a woman.......

Drip
A tear rolls slowly
leaving a shining trail
down my cheek
For life is sad
when we miss
what we could have
had.........

So let's live life
with less regret
and remember this
One is never as sorry
for what you have done
as for what you have
not................

Passion of attraction

A walk in the moonlight
your eyes shining bright
a question on your lips
an answer on mine
our fingers touch at the tips
our kisses like sweet wine
this is our passion
our sweet love

Dark Poetry

A Happy Day - in the life a manic depressive.....

The sun shone (as it usually does)
the birds sang (as always)
the grass grew (until the lawnmower came)
and today happened

Today I was happy (why - why not?)
the sun shone brighter
the birds sang better
and the lawn was mowed

Today went well (I survived, didn't I ?)
I didn't get sunburn
no bird pooped on me
the lawnmower didn't break

Today passed (Thankfully)
the sun burnt me out of bed
the birds screeching outside
the lawnmower pounding at my migraine.....

Today I didn't kill myself (why - I don't know...)
I hate the light of the sun
the birds are out to get me
the lawnmower is at my throat

Today
I
went
in
sane.......
