The Bite Marked Heart

Glassed over look has replaced my normal intense stare

While smiling thinking of the moments we've shared

Each time is better than the last

What did you do to me?

Did you put something in my food?

I am caught in the rapture of you…..of love

My life has never been this good

Air is sweeter

Sun is brighter

The nights are not as dark and cold as they were once before

You are safe in my grasp

Bitten by you

My heart is now in overdrive

I see the light at the end of the tunnel

And my wife is standing at the end….waiting

You won’t have to wake too long for me baby, I am on my way.

There Ain’t No Grave

I’ve walked around thinking that I was living the life

When in actuality I would’ve been better off dead

No this isn’t another suicide poem or one my ramblings of how I hate my life

To the contrary this me being reborn

Releasing my past

Laying down in the graveyard at night and awakening not only in a new day but with a new outlook on life

As the warmth of daybreak covers me I hear trumpets sounding

A call to arms

I stand waiting to glide into the sky

My wings have not sprouted yet

I am late for the sky….

Heaven has been right above me for years and seems like it is close but a long walk

Am I ready for the journey?

No one said this would be easy but then again anything worth having comes with a price

Is it really that much to ask for me to give up these worldly aspirations?

The reward is higher than the risk

For I will have eternal life

Rather than continuing to take out payday loans on my soul

Because when judgment day comes I will need to pay in full, no installments, no written off accounts

I am ready

Do with me what you will Lord

I am yours
