What do you do when passion’s depleted?When looking at the days ahead fills you with dread?The monotony of what you once dreamed now makes you impatient and mean.What do you do when there’s no hope for change?When the days all remain the same? When you realize your passion isn’t this way. What do you doContinue reading “Passion’s Depleted”

Beware the writer They hit the pen hard They draw out their tears Each line is a scar Beware the writer For this is their release Put it all on the page Help the pain cease Beware the writer With pages of wrong A way to escape To help them move on Beware the writerContinue reading “Beware the Writer”

It’s a curious thought when a memory comes to mind. It lingers and lingers until you give it some time. A childhood game. On an older game system. You decide to dust it off, see if it says “press start to continue.” You untangle the wires and untangle its kinks. Decide to stock up onContinue reading “An Old Video Game”

Don’t let hope dieDon’t let the world winDon’t tell your dreams goodbyeBut find a way to begin again Don’t let negativity get you downFor there is always a brighter futureDon’t follow the beliefs of the crowdBut find a path that’s newer What you see before you nowMay have a special meaningYou can’t see it somehowButContinue reading “Don’t Do This”

I found an old character From my college days.He loved being a pilotFlying everyday.His most treasured possessionWas, of course, his airplane.The sky was his loveA big beautiful dame.On adventures, he’d flyFor his platoon, he made a way.Yet, his greatest dislikeWas when they entered a cave.For he feared all the earthWould be his grave.A simple characterWasContinue reading “An Old Character”

Come all you ghoulsCome all you ghostsFor come night Is HalloweenThe gleam of the twilight To a foggy, cool dusk Haunts lie in the nightKeep low. Be hushed. Over the shine of the moonWitches fly on their broomsBats take leathery flight The vampires looking for a bite. Hear the wind howl The werewolves share theContinue reading “Night of Halloween”

I pulled out an old plannerAnd flipped to a random pageThere I found an old resolution Where I vowed to write every single day I know it didn’t happenMy writing fell off the shelfBut I had high hopes back thenAnd they’re still my hopes even nowTo make it an author’s decadeThat was going to beContinue reading “Pages of Life”
