The rants of the lonely

She passes before me, casting 

a bright light of confidence

And the way she walks,

like she can't wait to explore

I love the smile she has

it gives so much emotion,

excitement, wonder and the love

of the unconditional

She wonders why she draws 

men like months but

I have to turn away

sometimes, for I am drawn, too

How can I tell her that 

the reason for her glow

is not her shape and form

but the glow of her spirit?

This is not love just 

unconditional infatuation

This is not love, just

the rants of the lonely

The Meeting Place

A pale horse called Death meets me in the woods.

His ghostly eyes stare into my ghostly soul as he breathes fear into the world.

And maybe only good men know when their time is right,

But as a bad man I go gentle into the night.

Mirrors

Mirrors tell lies

They don't show what's inside

They only show what's skin deep

And show darkness when it creeps

Mirrors miss the most important part

They can't see what's in your heart

Life

Confusing, bemusing

Vexing, perplexing

Inestimable, unfathomable

Strange change

Story- mystery

Just thinking about it makes my head hurt
