I wore your sores
I rode your pain
I stood by your side-
Even in vain

I’d be here for you
Regardless of anything
Even when you took-
All of me for yours

I held your breath
When it was too heavy
I grew up in your shadow-
Of damage

Nothing you do can take the hurt
You had me learn
You had me live
You had me feel

I was born to fail
Since nothing I do
Was good for your appeal

Watching the sun go down
Watching the sun come up
Seeing people move on
Seeing life go on
Watching my life go down
Like the last ship sinking, unseen and uncalled for

Nobody even seems to know I'm out here
Not a flare not a static on the radio
No surface or land in sight just
Me and my mind
A silent rising tide
Drifting afar towards the nothing
Just away

I’m drained
My strength lessen
Too tired to continue
I want to give up

    But my heart won’t stop beating for my deepest desires
    My eyes won’t stop seeing me as the future of fashion and searching for more
     My legs won’t stop walking or crawling
     Even my pen won’t writing

I’m tired
My heart
My eyes
My legs and my pens won’t stop telling me I can’t stop until my dreams come true

Can you feel the southern heat.?
In the midst of the day
Looking for relief
I wonder which way
       Should I go?
Can you feel the sun beating down?
Is there anyone around.?
I’m starting to feel down
Everywhere I look
The heat index is rising
Can you feel the southern heat?

I am a father, boyfriend and ex
I am a brother, son, uncle and great uncle
I am a business man, officer and marketer
I am a designer, insurance agent and friend
that is just the tip...
I am a coach, teacher and board member
I am a manager, salesman and CMO
that is just the tip...
I am multi cultural not to be defined
I am skilled professionally
with simple tastes yet tastefully refined
I am a Christian first with that in mind
I am often seeking yet yearn to find
I am more than you may know
I am more that I tend to show
I am a private soul
I am a lover of life
I am a passionate male
with a passionate wife
I am more than you may know

673 days ago
I met the love of my life.
128 days ago
I became your wife.

I never could have imagined
What real love could grow into.
But my childhood, midnight dreams,
Came true when I met you.

As each amazing day with you
Turns into precious years,
I continue to find who I really am
And you relieve me from my fears.

The future with you, My Valentine,
Is beautiful beyond belief.
During times of bliss and joy,
And even during times of grief.

I will love you with all I have, my dear
Until the day I die.
For better or worse, rich or poor,
I'll be your valentine.

There's a river that flows
Although it can't be seen.
It is pure yet wild
But mostly serene.
It has no beginning
And it has no end.
It's more than a lover
And more than a friend.
It hates and it hurts
And it slams and it kills.
It loves and it touches
And it soothes and it heals.
It's sky and it's earth
It's black and it's white.
It's life and it's death
It's dark and it's light.
To each of us here
None see it the same.
But to all who have felt it
It carries the same name.
It is happiness and sorrow
Tears of pain and of joy.
It's a smile and a frown
It's a girl and a boy.

It is love.
