Book 2...

2.1 -Untitled-
Because your life
Is filled with conceit and condescendence
I cannot treat you as an equal
For you do not see yourself as an equal
You believe that you are better
Than those around you.

 

2-2. -Untitled-
If you only knew
That which I have lived...
Given to me
A bag of money
To purchase the grandest skeletons
Oh, you should see my closet.

 

2-3. -Untitled-
Truths to deceptions
We can act
Or impromptu
To forget our lines
With purpose to change the past
Or tell I lied to you
And perhaps you
Would you
Believe the stories I spin
On a blood-stained needle
To ink my skin
In vivid red
So lifeless is
The projected image
And so I heave
I am the beast
That sleeps in you.

 

2-4. -Untitled-
The world
Society
To teach each other
What should not be taught
Society
All too well connected
You will know what I have done.

Is it wrong
To look upon
To cast my eyes
To the gutter
Where my life has surely ended.

In the eyes of many
It is so
That abominable acts
Are frowned upon
See me for who I am.

 

2-5. -Untitled-
A new life
If only to know now
What I knew then
To free myself of anguish
And worldly debts.

 

2-6. -Untitled-
With passion
I've been denied
Hurled into my own soul
Like a pebble to the ocean.

And so few know me
But who am I
To lay claim
To such accusations?

I am an infant man
On a quest
To learn to walk
On broken legs.

I've been scorned by life
And have no right
To my own secrets
I am the end.

 

2-7. -Untitled-
I have been defiled
Poetic nonsense
As I speak of wisdom
Such as in undiscovered darkness.

 

2-8. -Untitled-
It's so hard to
Release that
Take my child for a day
Return here at the end
And to me
Return my child.

Take my wallet to the store
Spend only that which you need
And to me return the remainder.

Take my heart when you go
Remember me in all of your journeys
And to me
Return the love.

Trust.

 

2-9. -Untitled-
Tonight I felt alone
For so lond have I hidden
From my fears
And still I do not face them.

I lond to be freed
From the prison
In which my spirit sleeps
Awake to the truth.

 

2-10.  -Untitled-
My frequency grants me title
To state my regularity.
The shop is quaint
To find comfort in society.
Among any who would listen
For any would.
So I spout and vent my knowledge.
It earns me smiles.
In humor I can confide
Until no longer my cup runneth over.
It feels so emtpy at the bottom
So to deep pockets.
A refill please!
And I can continue my conversation.

 

2-11. -Untitled-
The whirring dance
Of dust and air
The grinding song
Too much to bear.

And yet I stay
Enticed by fear
Sleep instead
Or be aware.

 

2-12. -Untitled-
Of all of nature's laws
That you defy
The most dazzling
Of the ones I've witnessed.

Is when the sun shines
The moon reflects
And the stars don't dim
To the brightness of your beauty.

 

2-13. -Untitled-
Moon mist
As a body in the clouds of Heaven
So does my love induce.

Imbibe
Of life and knowledge
So intocxicate my bloodstream.

Enact
Set to motion
My though of you and I.

 

2-14. -Untitled-
And I
The world
The way it was supposed to be seen
Never did
Never found.

And you
Time and distance away
Far enough
We'd never meet
Never said.

 

2-15. -Untitled-
Always a little girl
Always, all ways
But now
Here before me
A woman do I see
A vision to me.

 

2-16. -Untitled-
Vast
Amazing
Time, so swiftly
Yet, forever.

 

2-17. -Untitled-
The silence
As that in a tale of sadness
Let resound that echo
Through a darkened room
With no presence of a window
And only one door
The way you came in
Only there is no handle
Nothing to hold to
And the walls slowly creep
From their standing on the floor
As the floor shrinks
And the ceiling falls away
Realize that up is not
And the floorboards are down
Only because they are below you.
Closest to your footing
Which is losing fast.

 

2-18. -Untitled-
I have seen
A grown man cry
No time for pain
No time for tears

For a love that's lost
There's no goodbyes
No distancing
There are no years

The final question
Is always "Why?"
Not always shown
That time would heal

So that's what happens
When one dies
We realize
Which love is real.

 

2-19. -Untitled-
Less is more
More or less
And more than less
There's less than more.

 

2-20. -Untitled-
Sooner or later
Not later, but sooner
Much sooner than later
No later than sooner.

 

2-21. -Untitled-
Who am I sometimes?
Who am I never?
Who am I always?
Where away sometimes, never and always?

 

2-22. -Untitled-
Time
And again wait
For time
My life
Is the blink of his eye
Yet, as small as I am
He found time
In forever
For me
Thank you
God.

 

2-23. -Untitled-
Listen to the tale I tell
Hear me and know that all is well
Imagine a world where I did not love you
Now think of a place where you're not around
Reflect to a time without thoughts about you
And I search everywhere but you can't be found

These are horrible thoughts
And I hope you'll forgive me
For being so silent
When I know I should sing.

If they make you feel empty
I beg you, bear with me
For all of my dreaming
I can't imagine any one
Of these things.

 

2-24. -Untitled-
Reach
For only then can you grasp
Understand please
Although you don't
Know me
I'm your friend
Believe in me.

 

2-25. -Untitled-
Faith
Strengthen and be my guide
Take my hand
And show the way
In truth and love
I will confide
So may be tomorrow
Let's hope today.

 

2-26. -Untitled-
Practice dreaming
Everything you see is what you make of it.
Never looking back
Never forgetting the past
You are my prayers answered

Long ago I prayed for you
And now I see that you are here
Never will I need another
Everything I need I see in you.

 

2-27. -Untitled-
Being in love
Is not always so evident
Being in love
Is not a choice
Being in love
Requires courage
Being in love
Is a test of faith
Being in love is familiar to me
Being in love
Is but a memory.

 

2-28.  Penny
If life is a puzzle
I've just found the last piece.

 

2-29. -Untitled-
Will you never leave me
Will you always be there
Will you hold me 'til morning
Will you answer my prayer

I will stand right beside you
Our footprints in sand
Will remind you, I love you
While I'm holding your hand

You will guide me, I will follow
And the truth will be known
Through the years and the struggle
Our love will be shown

Because, I love, I need you
To always be there
I will hold you 'til morning
When you wake I'll be here

 

2-30. -Untitled-
Conflict
The worst, the best
My tears of struggle
For I am overwhelmed

Saying goodbye
But I missed it
My best friend

Saying hello
Rushed into love
Looking behind to see who pushed me
I see my own hands

And faith
I am forced to decide
But how can I
True love, best friendship
God, my dreams.

 

2-31.  Eyes of God
My life is hard
But you can't see my pain
You're busy with your own
And I'm just another man

Sometimes are rough
I know my faith won't see me through
Never's not enough
I'd hate to live here without you.

But there are times in life
When we just can't go on another day
We just can't see the point
We never seem to pray

Eyes of God
Are looking down from up above
I know he sees my pain
'Cause he counters it with love.

 

2-32. -Untitled-
Dearest Penny,
A letter, true.
But please accept this poem to you.
I'll tell you here the way I feel
Of you and why this love is real.

Whenever it seems together's too much
And maybe just a day apart
One step away, I miss your touch
And longing for you consumes my heart.

The love your arms' embrace supplies
Relieves my soul of any shame
And holding you within my arms
I only hope provides the same.

I do love you
You know it's true
My heart you fill.
     Sincerely,
         Will

 

2-33. -Untitled-
Beauty is in the eye of the beholder
But in the eye of beauty
Something so much deeper
The roots of love.

 

2-35. -Untitled-
And my father offered to me
To eat of the tree of knowledge
As Eve to Adam in the Garden of Eden
And I offer to you the same
A place to learn in a new way
As my father to me in the garden of my home.

 

2-36. -Untitled-
Anonymity
And who are you?
Who did this?
Without identity
What was the reason?
How do I believe you?
Teach me.
I wonder why.

 

2-37. -Untitled-
I miss you
You made me laugh
I loved to hold you
And comfort you
When you needed me.

 

2-38. -Untitled-
He removed the organ
To relieve his pressure
As he stared into the water
An image formed in the ripples
And the liquid lunged at him
With horrific eyes
And gaping maw.

 

2-39.  Shed Your Light
Love has passed me by
A thousand times
I only hoped to see the sun rise
Each morning when it came.

But I have learned to realize
That when the sun would set
I'd be in darkness
I'd be the one to blame.

Can you shed your light on me
Will you be my rising sun
I want to be part of it
I want to be part of you.

Won't you shed your light on me
Be the one I'll love for life
Along the road I travelled
My heart unravelled
I opened up inside and saw the truth
Girl, you know I'm so in love with you.

 

2-40. -Untitled-
If I've known you forever
Then this is how so
We've lived a dozen lives
So the story would go

I as a rock and you as a tree
Stood still by your side, kept you close to me
And you with your branches, reaching for sun
Remembered your roots and where you came from.

And the rain fell and the wind blew
But nothing could separate us two.

 

2-41. -Untitled-
Deep within a wood
The incumbent of a hole
Through the nostrils
Breath of life.

Penny.
Priceless.
Am I worth a Penny?
For what price
May I purchase a Penny?
For visual beauty
Emotional comfort.
My heart rests.

Estel.
Truth and knowledge.
True or false.
Lies and deception.
Believer.
Liar.

 

2-44. -Untitled-
Do I tell the truth?
Lie?
You are wrong.
It came from me.
But it came from society.
Association.
What do you really know?

 

2-45. -Untitled-
If I say something,
That I believe is true,
But I am wrong,
Is it a lie?
Is being wrong lying?
Is being right the truth?
What is true to me,
Is it true to you?
What do you believe?
I did not deceive you.
This is my truth.

 

2-46. -Untitled-
There's a nail
On a toe
On a foot
On a leg
From a hole
From the dark
Hatching from an egg.

Crazy request
The quest's not so crazy.
Request is repeat.
Repeat is so crazy.
Request or repeat?

So, again, he played piano
For his long lost sister
Each night she would rise
To compliment his misery
With violin.

Beautiful ladies
In long flowing dresses
With flowering hats
Are flocking to benches
For tea and the gossip
In scene of the mountain
On fields sewn with roses
Who do the same.

All of smiles
The memories
Of us
And how once
We were romantically involved.

 

2-51. -Untitled-
All of the tears
The memories
Of us
And how just for a moment
For a lifetime
My heart was yours
And I still remember.

 

2-52. -Untitled-
Being in love?
I have loved.
Yet not been in love.
I have learned,
That I have been in love,
Once before.
But, now,
This love,
Is real.
Real?
This love is honest.
This love is true.
As truth to my reality.

 

2-53. -Untitled-
A maiden true.
Just walking through?

I have loved a maiden
While not in love.
But my concern
For her was far above

The others whom with
I shared a view
Of the things of time
I'd say and do

It was my life
I saw it fit
To notice not
A little bit.

 

2-54. -Untitled-
We learn
From people
By the way they carry themselves
And add to our personalities
The ideas we agree with
And the traits that we like.

 

2-55. -Untitled-
I sat and stared
Watched
While both had their own place
They shared a view
And as much
As both could see the same
At the crossroads
Still passed each other
Walked on
Feeling alone.

 

2-56. -Untitled-
And so we go on
Beyond life
Becomes death
But each day
A part of us goes on
New generation
And we are there.
In eyes
And for not falling far from the tree.

 

2-57. -Untitled-
Because I love you
Nothing short of death
Will separate us
By that time
We will be so comfortable
Inside each other
The love would never die
We'd just say goodbye.
I love you so much Penny.

 

2-58.  Vows
I shall support you
In every decision
That you make
For yourself

And I you
Shall do the same
In everything
You say and do

We will prosper
Because we now are one
In every path
We walk together.

Book of the year
Do you want memories
Of people
Who are only passing by?

 

2-60. -Untitled-
Be true to what you say,
For the one you love, I pray.

Stop doing what you may.
For you may regret one day
That the one whom next you lay
Will see the games you play
And decide to go away.

What I say is true.

 

2-61. -Untitled-
Ordeal.
What test in ultimacy
Is now?
Be strong.
As on we time.
There will be another.

 

2-62. -Untitled-
Dream?
Don't reach for it.
That's not your dream.
But a fantasy?
Maybe.
For definition.

 

2-63. -Untitled-
I only care about the way you love me.
Only now
Do I realize?
Within
For love
Whatever you do
For that is you.

Or not?
One piece at a time.
No last kiss goodbye.

Incomplete, incomplete
I am incomplete
Dear God,
 I'm sorry that it's been so long, but, you didn't write either.  I realize now that I didn't give you my address.  Also, I apologize for omitting it again.
 I don't understand.  Maybe I'm not supposed to.  I pray that you watch over...  She said you have her address.  I also pray that you could maybe send me some faith.  I know you don't have my address.  ...would give it to you, I bet.  Thank you for the time.  I am sincere in my beliefs.  My convictions are strong.  Convict me.
 Sincerely,

P.S.  I don't understand.

 

2-67. -Untitled-
Like a leaf,
We all must wither and fall
From the place which now we hold.
Like belief,
We think we know it all
But in time our page unfolds.
For now
We must enjoy the light
That creates the life we live
For in time
We all will lose the fight
To enhance the time that'd give.

 

2-68. -Untitled-
The life that once I lead
Of once that I have loved.
Vanished like the wind.
To an echo of a wave
Or a ripple, that of sound
So familiar did it seem
Where I lost my innocence
Erased have I my past
Only now and that of since.

 

2-69. -Untitled-
The world holds me nothing
And owe to the previous
I do not
Remembered like
A cool summer breeze
When you think of me.

 

2-70. (BY PENNY)
Love should be loud!
Loud, pure and beautiful

 Now, our life!
 I love you William!

And Satan moved my hand
An action of itself
I know not
It struck so full
Attention had me not
And I did not notice.

 

2-73. -Untitled-
Every thought is pure poetry
Thoughtlessly I clip my Zippo
All things said and done
Decidedly
Conscious, subconscious
It doesn't matter
We know who we are
I cannot
That which I am not
Love yourself
Or love no one.

 

2-74. -Untitled-
Beauty sleeping
Rest or play
Where every thread
That embraces your body
Longs to shout
Out to the world
The secret which they hide
The wonderment beneath
But they cannot
For already they find
That they are bound
To each other
To keep
The silence that calms
The beauty at rest.

 

2-75. -Untitled-
Every passing moment I miss
The way you touch
And the way that you kiss
I give my love to you
You're the air I breath, it's true
Love should be loud
Loud, pure and beautiful

I'd walk in the sand
With you holding my hand
And I'll tell you that I love you
Any way that I can.
Laying here by the sea
With te waves at our feet
Showing you that I want you
To spend your whole life with me.

 

2-76.  List
From hair of brown
From smile to frown
Through thick and thin
Throughout, within.

My favorite photo
Eyes that shine
A smile that glows
Skin so soft.

The sound of breath
And tears of sadness
Arms that lock
And legs that really walk.

Ears to nibble
Noses to rub
Lips that glisten
Words that sooth.

For your patience
Understanding
Because you share
I feel your love.

Because morning mourns
The death of night
When you slip away from me
My fingers cry.

I long for your presence
So thoughts will carry me along.
For every moment
We measure time.

My life is sweeter
Because of you
And to make you happy
No hesitation could be found.

For when I wonder
Where you are
My heart is lonely
You're much too far
Away my dear
Where we should go
We'll know when we're there
Fast or slow.

For a dream
Shared by two
White picket
Or none at all.

For screams of fright
When I would sneak
Upon you while you
Engross in else.

 

2-77. -Untitled-
Penny don't you see
You don't have to worry
'Cause you know in your heart
That there's no place I'd rather be
Than at your side eternally.

 

2-78. -Untitled-
So long has it been
To share my feeling
So I feed my paper
It's hunger is never satisfied.

 

2-79. -Untitled-
All are different
And no path is the same
And unknown to each other
We fear the truth.

That which you can
Live without.

Brother, sister
Fellow poets
We all have words to share
Stories to tell.

 

2-82.  Anthem
As I write this,
I forge my soul
For you see,
What I believe.

Yet is etching
Scratching my mind
Searching my reality
And there to expand.

Henceforth, I resolve
To act in manner
To character thereof
True to my identity.

Develop the self,
Encourage the weak,
Award the strong
And hear each voice.

2-85.  Bookseller's Ode
Respect the one
Who holds the leaves
Of knowledge you desire.

Without the presence
Of such being
How would you acquire?

As matter of truth
There contained
Recorded messages
Of passing time.

It says to me
The knowledge I have
From me to you
What's yours is mine.

Are precious gifts

Here today and gone tomorrow
Must the day ever pass
I treasure you.

Because there is no other.
I thought that I could not
Express in words
The love for you
That I feel.

But, I hope
That in trying to do so
It helps you understand
Just how much.

To say that you
Are my inspiration,
Not to write poetry
But, to live.

For without the air that I breathe
How could I?

 

2-91.  June 28th, 1999
You are the steam
The fire
That rages within.
My highest octane
Keeping my spirit alive
To be the only anything
I'd like to be everything.
Unlike a candle
My love does not melt away
From the intense heat
That the love between us creates
One day we will procreate together
Our children will be a symbol
Of our undying love
Because when I'm down
You inspire happiness
I will love you my whole life
You and no other.

 

2-92. -Untitled-
So I had to ask
Then, it was no gift.
I see others suffer
And other eyes that see as well
Where I cannot
They do not
They pass with only thought
And no action.

Friday
August thirteenth
Year of our Lord
Nineteen hundred ninety-nine
Here on the verge
Soon, will the millenium end.
The millenium as defined
One thousand years
Pandemonium
For we will continue
To judge each other
But, for the coming of a savior.
Only then
Final judgement.

 

2-95.  For Penny
I am me.
I understand
That I am human
There are things about me
That some will love
But, I don't do them
Because they love them
I do them because they are me.
There are things about me
That some will hate
But, I don't do them
Because they hate them
I do them because they are me.

You are the air that I breathe
For without you, how could I... anything?
Never will any word
Express the way I feel
My love for you
Is deeper than philosophy

When my eyes lay upon you
Beauty.

 

2-99. -Untitled-
At last is love
For long I've waited
Dreamt of, imagined, anticipated

I've loved you forever
Right from the start
The moment I saw you
You captured my heart

 

2-100. -Untitled-
The words wouldn't come
No words would express
What I felt inside

I love you like
A love I've never known
Before this

Our love is infinite
Rain falling or wind blowing
Nothing could separate us two.

Our love is timeless
And does not age
Forever and ever
I vow this
And all of my love
To you.

 

2-101. -Untitled-
For ever and ever
Always was my love meant
That is one were
Gone forever
Where ever
Where away?
My love will find you
For rememberance.

Have I wronged you
In some way
I try to sleep
But, horror plagues me.

I feel no love
Does this love exist?
Or do I lie
To you and I.

 

2-103. -Untitled-
Once I dreamt
You loved another
So I cried
And awoke
So I asked you.

Again I did
You loved another
Is there something
I should know?
Again I awake
To discover
It is still a dream.

Now I cannot sleep.
Fear of infidelity
Prevents this.

For my own
Insecurity
For my own
Doubting mind
Won't let my heart discover
What's there waiting
Waiting there to find

For my own
Bludgeoned past
For my own
Wicked deeds
Make impossible, my happiness
For that
Is which it feeds.

For my own
Plundered treasure
For my own
Empty soul
Leaves no room for another
To refill this hole.

 

2-105. -Untitled-
So it continues
Or endless it seems
Need or greed
Want or flaunt
A way of thought
So devastating to morale.

 

2-106. -Untitled-
My mind is so relentless
Never yielding
Ever bombarding my heart
With possibilities
No matter
All thought
Insecurities and desires
In my mind
In the corner of every eye
A tear
Drop
Awaiting it's usefulness.

 

2-107. -Untitled-

Man is a weed
In the garden of Eden
A pestilence
Plague
Destroying what is nature
To erect monuments to himself.
It is vanity
And all that is familiar
Cannot escape
What is the evil of vision.

 

2-108. -Untitled-
So conceit
Do you believe?
Have you been saved?
By whom?
And are you just lying to yourself?
Silence.
Again, no response.

 

2-109. -Untitled-
My poor wrinkled penis
What's going on?
Are you tired and weary
From the weather you've worn
Or like being torn
From the womb that is home
Of the seeds that you've planted
Be the crop that you've grown.

 

2-110. -Untitled-
Or
To be lost
What path do you choose
Do you know your destination
First kiss
Who's lips tonight
Be my wife
Throughout this life
'Til death do us part.

 

2-111. -Untitled-
Slide
Along the water
Your sons and daughters
Are yours no longer
I'm getting stronger
Each passing hour
I feel my power
Engross, devour
Your heart and mind
Your vision, blind
The sound create
You can't relate
Reiterate
So be it heard
The rhymeless word
A clouded moon
Impending doom
For shadows loom
And weave thereof
The sky above
My damaged love.

 

2-112. -Untitled-
What is
To be forgotten
For how long
Can be remembered.

Slippery
My grasp
So is the handle
Exuding blood
From life to flesh.

Cutting
Thinly slicing
Memories.

 

2-113. -Untitled-
An exercise
Futility
Bearing none
Thus empty.

 

2-114. -Untitled-
The king has died
The knight having failed
Thrust the sword
Heart
Failed faith.

 

2-115. -Untitled-
Depth
To get here
One must
Know the bottom.

And so I said,
"When pain overwhelms your heart..."
Here
I am here.

 

2-116. -Untitled-
Life is for nought
We are here
There is only the now.

 

2-117. -Untitled-
Whenever you think of me
Know that I love you
And smile.

 

2-118. -Untitled-
So long
Has it been
Since ink appeared
On this paper.

And for what?
Well, as discovered,
We find that
Such poetic ramblings...

Are better left
For pain and depression
Expression.
Like tears.

 

2-119. -Untitled-
Though my love for you
Cannot be heard
I hope that you can hear
These words

 

2-(INFINITE).
No numbers
Pages
Do you expect words in fashion
Arranged in some manner as to create some wonderous or beautiful image in your mind?

Something, something...
Little Rascals
My mouth
Mountains of Madness
What does that mean?

Welcome
If you so desire
You
I wonder who this writer speaks to
You
Can you hear it?

 

2-120. -Untitled-
The reader
Yes, yes, welcome.

He who walks in the clouds
About He
Or She?
It.

 

2-121.  To Penny
My love
The heart, desire
Come to me.

You fill my tendrils
That I may embrace
Only briefly
Because we must
Apart
However, that may time
Pass quickly
So again
To my arms
Run, run
Grab me
Squeeze me
Kiss upon my flesh.
And I may be whole
For your presence
In my heart.

 

2-122.  William (By Penny)
A man.
A man of so many words.
Of such emotion
Of such passion

My love for you tingles
Through my soul
Like a butterfly brushing against my cheek.
My face caressed by your touch and my heart forever pressed with love.

 

2-123. -Untitled-
Because if you don't
You will miss
Opportunity
Images on paper
Stored for all time
That a photo
May be cherished
So be it.

 

2-124. -Untitled-
May I love you
A thousand ways?
One million words.
My life, your love
To count so many
Short-lived days
Of what was, will be
'Til we above.

 

2-125.  The Rock, Who Wept
There
A common mountainside
Lodged
Beneath a boulder
Weighing upon the dirt.

So,
A pebble
That a fleck may cower
In the shadow
Of that stone.

Free to roll amongst the dust.
Into a shoe
Inwardly thrust
The daylight gone
Concludes the song
To ash is that I must.

 

2-126. -Untitled-
Shall I write for you?
Once written,
Shall your ears hear
Or your eyes see?

The verse or not
On paper wrought
Apportioned thought.
For Penny sought.

 

2-127. -Untitled-
We'd drawn our swords
To fight the hoards
But Death defied
Our suicide
We crawled towards
This fate before
Deciding that we might
Once more, the mustered strength
To unbend legs, there standing, fight...
But to what length?

 

2-128. -Untitled-
It never ends
You hurt me with your words
You're not my friend

The love that used to be
Is now so thin, that we can't see
Did we just pretend?
A story 'bout a love that never ends.

We dreamed at once
For walking hand in hand
Along the shore
And so much more

What love could be
So we decided we should
Start a family

We shared our love
And lost the time
That since was only yours and mine
Will we survive from here?
That just depends
On a story 'bout a love that never ends...
