  • I am a military girlfriend

    Monday, August 17, 2009 | A Poem/Artistic story

    I Am a Military Girlfriend.....
    I am a military girlfriend.I hold no formal recognition with the powers that be.I am at the bottom of the chain. I hold no Military ID card; I am not a "dependent" or parent.The man i love may face unspeakable dangers, and I am at the mercy of those who possess this recognition for news.I understand this and accept this.
    I am a military girlfriend...

  • How Many...?

    Friday, August 15, 2008 | A Poem/Artistic story

     
    The dark cloud is not quite so dark anymore but the sun hasn't come back out, so to speak, in my heart yet.  But I keep hoping... and while I wait, I think and then I write, and this is what came out today.  It helps me and I'm hoping maybe it helps someone else along the way.
    How many times can I say that I love you?
    How many times can I wish you were here?
    How can it b...

  • THE MESSAGE

    Tuesday, June 17, 2008 | A Poem/Artistic story

    Jessica got up in the usual way, and started her morning routine.
    She started her pot of coffee, and headed for the shower.
    Once done showering, she put her favorite purple bath robe towel on.
    Jessica looked in the mirror.
    You see Jessica was very full of herself, but what do you expect from a 21 year old?
    She combed the tangles out of her long black hair, and brushed her teeth.
    She decided that s...

  • Friendship In Our Time Of Need...

    Monday, August 25, 2008 | A Poem/Artistic story

     
    To all of those who share and care about the loved ones that we've all lost...
    For all of us to remember them with all of the love in our hearts.
    The tears that quench our sadness
    For all that used to be;
    The aching in our hearts
    That no one else can see.
    The pain that doesn't go away
    For months, it lingers on,
    Throbbing to remind us
    Of our loved ones who have gone
    Onto a place so far away
    Tha...

  • Feel that rush of endorphines.
    Feel that rush of bliss...
    Like the first day you ever stood in the rain,
    Like the first day you were kissed.
    Feel that happy buzz...
    Feel that rush of love,
    It cannot be contained...
    Like sweet mary jane
    Feel that happiness inside?
    It's yours to keep.
    Go on and climb steep
    Go and take that last leap
    Feel the air rushing past,
    I bet it's never felt this fast...
    Sprea...

  • Journal Entry for November 1, 2008

    Saturday, November 1, 2008 | A Poem/Artistic story

     
    A Love That Lives Forever...
    'Twas only just a while ago...
    So many times in your eyes, I've seen
    The reflection of the sweetest love
    As bright as could have been.
    The happiness that sparkled...
    The depth so very clear,
    Rising from your heart of hearts
    As you gently held me near.
    The rhythm of its beating,
    The melody so true,
    Made the task so simple
    To be in love with you.
    A love that lives fore...

  • Looking for Tomorrow...

    Wednesday, October 15, 2008 | A Poem/Artistic story

     
    Today's a little brighter than my yesterday, I think...
    I'm not so full of bitterness nor am I on the brink
    Of feeling like I cannot face all of my tomorrows,
    I'm not as full of hopelessness nor quite as many sorrows.
    I tell myself - I have to make the effort or I'll never
    Reach my goal of knowing that I've now lost my forever
    That we would spend together, our dreams were not ...

  • A new poem.

    Monday, June 9, 2008 | A Poem/Artistic story

    All These People
    All these people full of pain and sorrow
    all these people needed a clean tomorrow
    but here they stand in the rain
    full of doubt fear and pain.
    all these people day by day
    need their Savior to point the way
    all these people strong and weak
    need a place of refuge to seek
    In their saviors arms and love
    they can rest in the one above
    his grace is everlasting and true
    and he's cal...

  • Springtime brings a new beginning for us all....

    Wednesday, April 1, 2009 | A Poem/Artistic story

    These aluminum windows are as old as I am
    Im far from my Kentucky home and still...
    The first springtime rain smells as sweet as it did
    When the coal dust would blow across that bluegrass town
    Now we listen to the rain fall through old windows of our own
    And I fall into bed, your arm behind my head
    As I lay here I know we may fall
    but we fall together and love together
    And we rise again and we try again
    A...

  • The Bad/Good old days!

    Sunday, October 12, 2008 | A Poem/Artistic story

      People are starving and people are weak!
    Your big bad problem is to buzz to the peak.
    Only 2 bags of heroin and 4 stones of crack
    12 super strenghth lager  and Im on the right track!
    Whilst Im buzzing my head off
    Some people are starving!
    But thats not my problem
    You won't catch me crying,
    If I felt for every bad case and disease
    Id'e fuck up my buzz and never be pleased!
    So whils...
