At last sweet lady, you did appear.
I haven't seen you, for almost a year.
Now, I am finally out of life's muck.
Good to see you, my Lady Luck.

I feel the ground tremble,
beneath my feet
and I step back slowly,
starting my retreat.
What is the nature of
this cause bizarre?
I ask of you, "Stay
where you are.
Please do not move any
closer to me,
for I fear for you;
let me be."
The noise in my head,
the pain in my heart,
will now keep us separate
and far apart.
What do I say now?
You've gone away
and I must stay here,
on this saddest day.

The air I breathe,
in the cold, dead of night,
nips at my nose,
causing me fright,
for all of my fears,
don't freeze my ears.

You are the Captain of my soul.
This I know to be true
For no matter what the role,
I will still love all of you.

I know I write of sadness
and I write of woe,
but I will tell you one thing,
I am not ready to go.
When I go there will be a sound
of bells ringing loudly, when
my written words abound.
We will be free citizens when
we vote out this selfish man.

The words flow slowly, down to the page.
My thoughts are now running with rage.
Who in the World do you think you are,
When you are contagious and ride in the car?
You exposed more people who served thee.
What a pompous ass you are to see.
Irresponsible should be your middle name.
Who are you going to try to now blame
For your illness and all the drugs
To treat those who have bugs.

I lay in our bed,
so close to thee.
I look at your face,
saying "Come back to me."
Come back to where you belong.
Be here with me now.
Return and be strong,
show me once more,
what it is like to be
once more a whole couple,
again together, as we.

Forever, a word about
encompassing time.
Long may it be or short
from design.
There is no life line
if there is not time
to live a life of happiness
and it is sublime.

When I first met her,
it was a passing glance.
Certainly wasn't a prelude
to a new romance.
Over the years, from
where it began,
a friendship was started
and remains to this day,
for having friends in
this World is important
to us, for living alone
should not be permanent.

A verse for you,
will you vote red
or will you vote Blue?

My Soul is dead,
I will not lie,
For I was there
And saw it die.

Is it worth the risk,
the rest of your life,
when you begin to covet
another man's wife?
Or is it not a covet,
but merely a try
to have a conversation,
just one more time.
How can you be lonely,
when there's someone near,
who's physical presence is now,
with mental capacity, not here.
There is no conversation, coming to me
for I've lost the concentration
about what I need to be.
I'm saddened now; I want her to stay.
Only time will tell
which one goes away.
