Posted: 12/17/2006 10:51:30 PM | As I listen to my daughter cry
asking her pillow "why daddy why?"
I wonder what excuse you will use
when we both know you simply refuse
to be the father she needs you to be
when will you open your eyes and see
it's not me your hurting anymore
when you never appear at the door
she is the one hurting and in pain
but to you she will never complain
she blames herself for your mistakes
it's because of you that her heart aches
but we both know that you don't care
and why it is you treat her so unfair
you keep saying she's just like me
and I hate that I must disagree
because I really do wish she were
then your love she'd no longer long for

I know first hand, through my own soul
just what this pain can do
the season, while it's full of cheer
can crush you when you're blue
Just look down at your children
when your heart begins to break
and know how much they need you
when they sleep or when awake
His choices you can't make for him
the decision it is clear
to make his children number one
or simlply disappear
He thinks choosing not to see them
that who he hurts is you
if he could only see inside their hearts
he'd know this isn't true
this makes your job much harder
for them you have to be
not only mother, father too
their sense of security
Please know that you are not alone
when you feel at the end
just look to those who love you
be it family or friends | |

Posted: 12/18/2006 9:27:35 PM | I finally found
the man for me
my love, my life
my one and only
he's my friend
and my lover
just what I need
he's like no other
always with me
every single night
he lies beside me
and holds me tight
he whispers of love
wipes away my tears
offers encouragement
alleviates my fears
but each morning
when I open my eyes
and see that he's gone
a part of me dies
no longer can I live
without him by my side
every hour of the day
believe me I've tried
so tonight as I sleep
I'll savor him once more
and when morning comes
he'll not leave like before
for he only exists
in my dreams you see
so off to sleep I drift
to join him for eternity

Posted: 12/18/2006 9:28:07 PM | kinda wanna be in love
want that feeling again so much
kinda wanna be in love
miss having someone to hold and touch
kinda wanna be in love
knowing that to someone I really matter
kinda wanna be in love
have somone poke fun at me when I get fatter
kinda wanna be in love
kinda miss the sex and stuff
kinda wanna be in love
want somebody, of me, to never get enough
kinda wanna be in love
to have that someone that I can talk to
kinda wanna be in love
so, on a bad day, I have someone to walk to
kinda wanna be in love
so someday I can look back at what I had
kinda wanna be in love
and then look forward, and smile...
...as a dad. | |

I am not really searching, though. I would rather be found...lol
I had no problem finding my way around, all of my ex's always said that I was constantly "in the dark"...lol | |

Posted: 12/26/2006 9:09:03 PM | ok so I'm jumping ahead a bit.... guess I just can't wait for the NEW year to begin.... I've had enough of this one lol
 Happy New Year
Happiness in all the days to come.
Acceptance of who you are.
Passion in your life.
Possibilities that are endless.
Youthfulness, if not in age then in your heart.
Needs that are always met.
Endless reasons to laugh and smile.
Wishes that do come true.
Yearnings to try new things.
Energy to do the things you want to try.
Always may you have love, and
Remember always that you are loved.

Happy New Year!!!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
It's got to be
better than this one
couldn't be worse
yes it's official:
2006 BAD YEAR
Worst one ever
By far...
But maybe the roughcut gem within it all...
Meeting her...
...only time will tell

Posted: 12/27/2006 9:43:49 AM | It's the worst years that excavate the richest poems from our souls
Our expressive no body knows
Our Numen encounters that enliven our mind
And that far too distant glisten that eventually registers in our countenance’s shine
Happy New Years to one and all!
The poetry in this hall is rich with expression
And profound human affection
Let the rivers always flow
For deep in the heart of every poet, we know | |

~~~~~~~~~~
Sometimes you don't know
how you are viewed
being, honest tells a story
but still doubting, but knowing
I know I'm hot!
On fire is more like it!
And I thank you, for honesty!
See, it's like this...
I was the guy no one looked to
then I grew a heart
I married and knew from the start
my verve, did not need to play a part
always there for sure, but muddled
in Identity, if who I am, "my validation?"
move to a new stanza... !
One that knows of the truth
To see you in your booth...
Tenz 
PS well that ought to fock with them pretty good, for whatever we find in THEM! | |

Posted: 12/27/2006 8:01:28 PM | Shirt Off
~~~~~~~
Knowing of a stirring in my day
but without one to play
I riddle and fiddle until the day is met
And all the while knowing you are my JET!
Playing in your palace is just for my words
To unload a lot of nerve
I'm out drinkin' in the night
Not so sure of my eventual plight
But with my rhymes I can't go wrong
I only wish to sing my song
Don't push me aside, for in you I hide
Tell me your plans of adventure
and in this we will venture...
Tenz

Posted: 12/28/2006 11:18:00 PM | this new years eve
I won't grieve
for what I've lost
I'll offer a toast
to what I found
lying on the ground
trampled and broken
a heart re-awoken
stronger then ever
ready to endeavor
upon a new journey
to the inner me
I won't be afraid
I won't be betrayed
I won't be confined
by any of mankind
for finally I know
and I'm ready to show
the world just who I am
for I am a precious gem
that has finally emerged
and one would be privileged
if they were a part of
my life and knew of my love
not one of my best but heck at least I'm writing again  | |

Posted: 1/1/2007 12:54:46 PM | she stared into his eyes
full of wonder and surprise
as at the stroke of midnight
his arms wrapped her up tight
and he slowly ducked his head
a warmth within her spread
anticipation of lips about to meet
a savored kiss oh so sweet
to welcome in the new year
a fleeting kiss from someone dear
melting a heart that was numb
a promise of more to come... | |

Posted: 1/1/2007 8:56:46 PM | I didn't drink away
the new year holiday
but spent it instead
with a new found friend
a holiday finally enjoyed
a heart not left void
gives hope for a better year
just possibly filled with cheer
a reason for my spirit to dance
finally feeling there is a chance
that the sun is now shining on me
foretelling of better things to be | |
|
| Caly's Cavern
Posted: 1/1/2007 9:04:06 PM | With a New Year
brings a new hope
and that hope I want to share with you
Because a new friend
new to my heart
with such a loving spirit that I see in you
So to you, Caly
Happy New Year, love. | |

Posted: 1/7/2007 7:47:34 AM | hope is dead
no more fun
laughter fled
you have won
filled with emptiness
desire gone
now bloodless
another new dawn
shall arrive in time
for you but not for me
I hear deaths chime
tis the end I see
grim reaper appears
whispers my name
alleviates my fears
wipes away shame
grabs hold of my hands
then wraps me up tight
the reaper, he understands
he knows its right
no love to be had
no rising sun
no longer sad
my time here is done | |

Posted: 1/7/2007 8:44:33 AM | very dark caly....
not a bad thing...
but your light is too important....
let's see that dear....

| Caly's Cavern
Posted: 1/7/2007 2:08:15 PM | thanks tenz... my light is dimmed today; feeling a wee bit dark it seems... but rest assured the light shall shine again...
assumptions made
feeling betrayed
by poems read
things not said
sit and judge
hold your grudge
not understanding
my inner being
was your mistake
for I'm not fake
just a bit guarded
perhaps to jaded
but I am what I am
don't give a damn
what you think
tis written in ink
I offer no reason
commited no treason
simply shared rhymes
of different times
open to perception
possible misconception
but I won't explain
live with your disdain
I've already forgot
for I need you not | |
