BREATH OF A POET

Weeping sorrow - watered eyes - I cry
Bewildered - you may then really wonder why
I sit home at night - mending my broken heart
It's broken ! That's the end - it's all shredded apart
During this very painful time you go through hardships
Crossing the bridges they begin to climb
I am exasperated - I reckon I see the light
To the tunnel - I crawl through day and night
I believe - I walk in shame tantalized
I hold my head down - my heart vandalized
I am trying to cope through troubled waters
The tears fall into the puddles below
I cry still truly as if to redundantly know
My eyes they swell with the exasperation
The light it begins to break after the night
The words they slur - my mending heart as if it were
To be up at dawn - I see the sunlight
It calms me - I gaze at the radiant colors
Through these blurry eyes I then wake
My self pride personally in consideration I take
I am me! and the world surrounds me
Accept me as I am . I cannot change
I walk my life - step by step - I see
The poet in me - I challenge thus thee
My eyes still watered and still
Through these blurry tearful words
I write pouring my heart out day by day
knowing as the troubled waters are my reflections
Today! the world ceases to amaze me
Fine tuned they just don't see!!!!
Beauteous be? The beauty in poetry.....

MORBIDITY -- IN MENTAL HEALTH

I am me - I am subject to hell
I walk the rocks - I stand firm
A guinea pig to society - I resent
I fight for my legal rights
No one listens - Congress lives on
I swallow a pill - it makes me unhealthy
I question it - they call it paranoia
Morbid - diseased - lethargic
The miracle drugs - it makes you sick
The side effects I know so well
Politics - We can vote
Congress controls the FDA
What does you doctor then say?
The court rooms are adjourned
Judges - they are bribed
The quack! rules you - he prescribed
In the psychiatric world - you are doomed
He/She views you morbid
The Catholics - they stand tall
The priest he sits - he preaches
No one listens - you talk to the wall
Again you swallow the pill
And you're soul - it wanders
The FDA it ponders
Wow - in numbers we have power
We need a politician in congress
To fight the FDA to allow disallow it dispensed
Of psychotropic drugs in our system
I ponder at the thought
Approved - this!!??
Think of the prescriptions we bought
The pharmacies - they dispense
Wow! Unwholesome - the side effects
Who protects?
I sit I wonder?
Why do we have an FDA?
If what we take- the cause and effect
Is making us morbid?
I question patients - Are they the ones sick?
Patients rights?
But yet they force it?
Mental Hygiene Lawyers - What are they?
Employees gang up physically
I see...................


FDA ( Food and Drug Administration)

I AM WALKING IN CIRCLES

I wondered - My brain wandered
I went down memory lane
My eyes - they see images and thus
I imagine - imagine this - imagine that
And then I think
What would I do without you
You gaze at me - I daydream
Memories lingered through my mind
The past it may dwell on me . What shall I find?
It crippled me emotionally
I view the facts
I see stars - they shine
I see the sun come up at dawn
Then I view calamity - but I am fine
I wondered what shall I do?
I walk paths - I run into you
My time I spent down memory lane
In my dreams! I am now ashamed
I met you! I contemplate!
I cross bridges - I climb mountains too
I see the mistakes I found in you
God is listening - I do declare
And these four walls as if to stare
Come closing in - and my mind is clearly trying
To show a positive attitude , while my heart is crying
Now time it goes by- and sits in the past
Thus I am motivated to meet anew
And may the heavenly stars by far
Show me the way
I'm stunned!
I still have you?

This is a DRAMATIC MONOLOGUE :  Please enjoy and have a nice day

PERSONALITY PLUS

THIS IS A POEM   I wrote  that is published as a sneak preview of my book  " Beauteous Be Poesy"  Available on googles, Amazon.com and or Barnes and Noble


Have a Beautiful Day!!!


To be constructive criticism
Moral conduct, not a dilemma
Of the utmost of clean character
Gainful knowledge and words of wisdom
Honest, healthy minded stigma
I proclaim this is what you reflect
Hence forth with these great qualities
Set forth this the personalities
Let it be me that reflects these traits
And the brain be great of  " id " it awaits
More feedback generally of typical style
The personality that makes it all worth while
I say to you, I love you so
I say to you you're nice to know
And the moral standards you stand so tall
Nothing you say bounces off the wall
Your personality plus, you're wise today
To set your eyes on me you might then say
Your character is so beautifully brilliant
You're charming and even the charmer
And once you you achieve the perfect karma
Now doth thee body show strength at hand
Life's beautiful footprints then in the sand.....

THIS WINTER DAY

The dead of winter creeps in - the cold trembling air
A cool breeze surrounding thus my face
I shiver ! I walk the mountainous road
Through life - with the winter blues
On my mind! stars not a trace
The snow it falls - the chill I embrace
My eyes are occupied - I stare at a dull infatuation
The limbs they died - they stagnate my mind
Calamity - it sets in - it overwhelms me
The dark grey cloudy skies are prevalent
Inside I sit , I look out the hazy window
I see the visions are upon me - my mind wanders
Daydreaming! I enjoy the warmth in my environment
No beauty of the sun - I see desperation
Exasperated by the sight of blizzard warnings
I now think of my gardens - the roots are froze
And the rose too died nothing grows
The climbers - they too do not bloom
I see God's eye - he is watching me
I then instill beauteous thoughts on my day
Beauteous blue skies on my mind
Day after day - they blossom - they permeate
In my soul - and in the spring, I create
Images of bright beauty in the skies - so beautiful
But for now - the sun shining on my tomorrow
May the sparkling snow shimmer and the roses soon climb
Indeed beneath the snow - those beautiful roots
Come alive! They are with me opposing the dreary blues
Of this chilly day - smelling roses , I choose.

YESTERDAY - TOMORROW

Today! I walk each new born day
It breaks at dawn - I wake
Images in my mind - for heavens sake
I try - I create - lingering memories
Capturing special moments, I then smile
I cry - tears throughout the years
Embracing life - I walk the extra mile
I smell the roses - every breath I take
Time passes me! and each day that I realize
My day becomes yesterday - beauteous
Be the brain recollecting each new day past
Cherishing thoughts - I am mesmerized
I am blessed! with what is surrounding me
Each picture on the wall - I have pride
I stand tall - I have special feelings inside
Every day - every picture tells a story
And tomorrow I enjoy today - remarkable
I am me! I love - significant memories
Today becomes yesterday and tomorrow
Becomes my past - again I stand tall with pride
Smelling the rose keeping special moments inside
So today creating yesterday - I keep walking
Wasting my time? I create images
Thinking about each breath I take with my rose
The memories on the wall - I keep talking
About my captured memories surrounding me
Beauteous - One love- one life- I see
Carrying yourself , it's all I've got
I'm holding on to one life- Beauteous be..
