Internet=Fail

Sorry I seem to have abandoned my blog. Far from it. I just don't have internet at home right now, and don't feel comfortable doing this from work.
Stay tuned..........I'll be back.

Fool Me Twice

Ignoring misery's toll
took another chance
placed a wounded soul
in precarious circumstance

Azure eyes of magic
her smile entrapped his soul
the outcome once more,tragic
his life so close, to whole

Committed for a lifetime
sealed it with his ring
left aching for the right sign
she wasn't everything

Hand strays to the hollow
she once occupied
with many days to follow
seeking reasons why

One true love's denial
all alone again
weeping all the while
shattered heart in chains

Step Off

Hollow chasm beckons
chill hands of wind
serve emptiness second
Loss
always first to feed

Another somber step
a leap
embracing never
Forever
long gone
Now
hazy mist of regret
floats
on wings of pain

Echoing in the void
tomorrow
embraced by trembling arms
soaked
in crimson sorrow

Thursday

I posted some more poetry on The Poet Sanctuary. I found a thread on there where a lot of the other writers post their pictures. What a bunch of good looking people. So many different personalities and lifestyles as well. I was amazed to discover that a few of my favorite writers were much younger than me. They expressed themselves with depth and maturity that's sometimes hard to find in the very young.

I spent last night with my daughter. she's getting so big. She's "boy crazy" these days. She likes one boy, but another one likes her, and she's not going with either of them......yet. They have a dance at school this Friday, I'm sure the drama will progress from there.
Sadly, the dance will begin with a memorial to one of her friends, Ebony. Ebony was killed this week when she was accidentally shot by her brother, she was only 12.
Rest in peace Ebony......

My new best friend and I are talking again about tattoos. She is thinking of getting a big one up her side. It will really be beautiful if they do a good job. I have the itch for a new one too. I just can't make up my mind which one to get. Maybe a few more sit-ups and I'll get the one for my chest....more likely another for the arm though.

Well, I am at work, I should work.
I'll post my new poem later tonight, unless I get too drunk at bowling :)
