The Truth About Nothing
what value
society
places on life
saddens me
when i hear
old people saying
they're afraid
to leave their
houses for fear
of being mugged
and/or beat to death
when innocent children
are molested and
worse yet killed
when people
in high places
are unveiled as liars
nothing seems to
be what matters
in this modern age
the truth is the
value of a thing
is what we place on it
what it really means
honor life and
you will live forever

The Witness
she has a new name
a new life
a whole new identity
it is not due
to amnesia
nor was it by choice
it is for
one reason alone-
she saw something
she wasn't
supposed to see
now she flees
to another country
in the hope one day
she will return
to a life of normalcy

There Will Come A Day
there will come a day
i will cease to
think of you (i pray)
but do not believe
a word of this for
i think you still
care for me and
hold me in
your thoughts
and as i read the book
you gave me with
the love poem marked
especially for me
i wonder how long
you would wait
for me or any woman
for that matter

Times Have Changed
times have changed-
you have your life
your wife and soon
to be born baby
don't blame me
if i've found happiness
in his arms and love
in his approach-
i need love like
all the rest
