Betrayed With A Kiss

Betrayed With A Kiss

Many people seek love and attention;
wanting to take; more than they give;
others live in doubt, and apprehension;
lost in the life that they live.

The world is full of movers and shakers;
humility comes at a cost;
most, among them, are reality’s takers;

Shoulda, Coulda, Woulda

Shoulda, Coulda, Woulda...

Why must my focus be on yesterday;

Tomorrow is a date; not yet in play;
for, only today, can I take a bow.

Yesterday is long gone; forever passed;

memories of failure aren’

Slavery Of Thought

Slavery Of Thought

Thought’s the foundation for everything;
not ever meant to be deemed restricted;
thoughts controlled; will slavery bring;

The Glass Filled With Life

The Glass Filled With Life

There’re those who say their glass is half full;

Our gift called life; a glass of champagne;

The Guilt Over Innocence

The Guilt Over Innocence

Guilt is wrapped around much of my thought;
etched with my pain and sorrow;
I bear that guilt for all that I’ve wrought;
perhaps, I’ll forget it tomorrow.

But, tomorrow always stays one step ahead;
barely remaining in view;
all guilt remains, until we
