This home is not our dwelling place.
We are all just a passing through.
Come snow,rain or sunshine.
It is ours to weather through.
So let us be courageous.
Standing,tall and strong.
As we weather through them all.
Knowing we are not alone.
Stand Tall.
Stand Strong.
Be courageous.
Live in victory.
And never let go.

Intersections
Misguided directions
My hope was high jacked

Right from underneath me

Pentagrams
In the night
Hiding my deepest sorrows

Leave and don’t
Take me with you
Swallowed whole

By lies
And a weak lack
Of will  

To fight for change
Saturated in
Bad spirits haunted

By the days prior
Stuck in a school of
Haunting evil trolls

Bouncing off the walls
Frothing at the mouth
To be transformed

One eye open
While the others sealed shut
I felt like

Two souls trapped in one
How could this be
God and the devil

Head to head in a face off

Pulling me
In different directions
Caught in the crossfire

Glad thee right team won

Replacing bad habits
Took me to
The point of no return

Impossible to
Fathom how far
I’ve actually come

Stuck in neutral

I had to put the car in drive
And not look back
As often as I had before

Separating one from the other
Learning to function
Somewhat properly

Surviving me became the
Ultimate chore
I had to learn life’s lessons

The hard way

And it truly helps
Me to appreciate the air
I still breath today

Dull existence
Tilting axis
Gravity’s lumpy
Lost in the backroads

Off a beaten path

Protect the nest
Don’t flock
To the fatal tones

The rooster mustn’t reign

Like a moth
To a flame
A lantern without a spark

My dark forest held me

Picking myself
Up of the pavement
Trying to avoid my

Chalk outline permanently

Short fuse
As my time bomb
Was ticking down to it’s last seconds

Absolute explosion guaranteed

Logy as I was
Repercussions never mattered
Up to that point

I just sat and pondered

If this had to be my fate
Why not just change
For the betterment of MYSELF

She said she felt bad for my father
Because I wasn't speaking to him anymore

Then she read my poems

Never in this world
I would ever wish to stay
Dreams and not the days

Screaming signs
Nimble imagination
Fear of the unknown

Faces of a thousand byways

Mental stagnations
On the back
Burners boiling over

Layered chaos
Far too many
Like bread crumbs

I don’t wanna eat anymore

Unbreakable chains
Grab the bolt cutters
And unlock my true potential

Your purpose is greater

Then any pain
Your could suffer
At the hands

Of the uncomfortable uncertainty’s

That stewed
Wispy saboteur
Unraveling seasons

The constant pounding in my chest

Feelings I could never shake
Riddle me this
The many disguises

That hid my true nature

Behind a Molotov cocktail
The cup
That pinched me into a bind

Outdated projector
Reruns spinning
Without a remote

A flash flood

Of disturbing images  
My clothes line was hampered
Cause and effect

You made the bed you slept in

A heat seeking missile
Gasping
For a longing embrace

Love is
A camouflage
To conceal the factual pain

As the facade slowly
Started taking form
Reaching it’s destined peak

I prefer the window dressings

I see now warm and inviting

Over the old ones
Played out

That finally got REMODELED
