A man full of love, enthusiasm, and benevolence,
A man who was greatly honored as the King of Nation,
This dedicated man carried forward to fought for victory,
He has the key that opens every door all over the country.
This man was the seed of Martin Luther King’s Dream,
An incredible dream that everyone has ever seen,
A man was [...]

Our love was slowly dying,
And to this very day.
I regret all of the problems,
because now, you’re gone away.
I still here you whisper,
My name so soft and dear.
And though I cannot see you,
I know you’re watching near.
I feel our love still burning,
So deep inside my soul.
Filling every crevice,
Drowning every hole.
All the good [...]

Sweet Love
By: Kathryn O.
The world couldn’t see
How you loved tenderly
Your touch started a fire
Of burning desire
Parting was always sweet sorrow
But we always had tomorrow
To feel your hold so strong
I knew that I belonged
You were thought to be a boy
But oh the joy
The simple things for me were best
Save the flashy for the rest
I’ll never know [...]

Now that your gone
I will always long
To feel you by my side
The waves of sadness I will ride
Our commitment I’ll continue to abide
My heart is broken and will never mend
I will continue to love you to the end
I pray we’ll be together again some day
I’ll keep my wanting to join you now at bay
There [...]

It all started when in at five past midnight
Now I am lying stiff and cold
Deep in troubled dreamless sleep.
Cotton wool stuffed in my nostrils,
I cannot breathe.
A rag tightening my jaws together,
I cannot protest.
My feet bound together,
Surely there is no escape this time round.
Granny chose they dress me up in my favourite suit,
But this time there [...]
How to Forget
The school of time preaches the art of remembering But souls I’ve crossed crave the art of forgetting And though they say time fades memories ‘Tis not an absolute truth For time reinforces, remembers ever so much more For that which you own, not time nor fate can rob it No event can change it, no circumstance deny it But it is [...]Tales from the Crypt

Once upon a weary night
Whence old moon pondered
Burning away her silver light
In days of yore she hath decorated
Perched amongst the wandering craven
Weaved tales of tales begotten
“Look on thy lands so tender
They speaketh unto minds moved
Of streaming springs and bitter kings
That hath paved the path of yore
To man his own vengeance and pride
That bloometh redder still [...]
By the River
(For Eric) You said that dad always liked to take you fishing. You had the patience to sit and wait and watch. Crowds of words didn’t chatter in your head and the squawk of crows was enough to settle your need for language. Your landscape was rural—as factual as a barbed hook. Your talent was observation and from the fishing camp in upward look [...]Subscribe
