We had a plan, I picked you up
You called it a date, I called it enough
February wind, your hand in mine
You said “Valentine,”
I thought we were fine
You gave me your name, your street, your trust
I gave you space, and you gave me dust
Told me you were sad I didn’t say hi
Now you paint me wrong,
Why’d you have to lie?
Since you "moved on"
You’ve been rewriting how we began
Like I wasn’t careful, like I had a plan
But I held your hand
Only when I felt safe to try
You lit the match
Now you’re scared of the fire
Cold wind Valentine
You can’t erase the signs
Jimmy John’s and all the laughs
You said things like “this could last”
We joked about rants, and dumb dog fights
You were warm in texts
Now I’m wrong in hindsight?
You blocked, no reason, vanished fast
Then ran to the server to rewrite the past
You took my truth, turned it into fear
Now I’m the villain when I was sincere?
Since you "moved on"
You twisted trust into some scene
Where I’m the shadow you’ve never seen
But I held your hand
With caution and a clear mind
You burned the bridge
Then blamed the other side
Cold wind Valentine
You won’t redefine my spine
I kept your secrets, I played it fair
You told your story like I wasn’t there
But I’ve got facts, not fantasy
And I won’t drown in your tragedy
Since you "moved on"
You’ve been loud with the fiction, low with the facts
But I’ve got my name, and I’m taking it back
I held your hand
You turned that into a crime
So go play the victim
I’m done doing time
Cold wind Valentine
You blew your shot when you crossed that line
Yeah, cold wind Valentine…
You were never really mine.

Flying Above
For a moment I was lying
For a little second I believed
No pain, not now, no grief, not to be seen
I’ve always wished I could soar
Above all the clouds and the troubles
Now you’ll fly forever
In skies of deep blue against the edge of space
My out stretched arms reach for your smile in every sun beam
In every warm color of sunset after rain
The echo of your laughter whisking as the breeze
Knowing nothing of pain
My heart’s missing you
Each time my eyes see the little cloud
Nor a rainbow arching high and low
My thoughts think of both of you
The wind silently wipes a tear from my eye

"Just a man," they say, with a smirk on their lips,
"Just a man," they chant, as if it's some eclipse.
"Just a man," they sneer, with disdain in their eyes,
"Just a man," they jeer, as if it's a prize.
"Just a man," they use, as an excuse for hate,
"Just a man," they abuse, as if it seals our fate.
"Just a man," they mock, as if we're less than whole,
"Just a man," they knock, as if we've sold our soul.
"Just a man," they label, to diminish our worth,
"Just a man," they enable, to justify their mirth.
But what does it matter,
The biggest crime is rebelling the masculine mold,
Giving the worst 1% of men the power, so cold.
For what am I but a meaningless man,
Disposable in all eyes, it’s part of the plan.
Why fight against what's the rule of law,
In a woman's land, after all
Woman’s Land
In this world of “men”, cheeks aren't rosy,
Strawberry sodas drowned in stoic prose,
Stars dimmed by societal pressure,
Clouds obscure dreams with their measure.
Burnt for showing emotion's fire,
Labeled a dick, just another dire,
Centuries pass, but the shame's entire,
Forced into roles, we didn't aspire.
No mourning for sons lost unseen,
Their deaths unnoticed, mere routine,
Boy children linger, orphaned, unseen,
While sisters find homes, in dreams serene.
Gay men face discrimination's sting,
More than sisters, lovers, it's a thing,
In a world where masculinity's king,
Authenticity punished, silenced wing.
Father Time’s dying, who's scoring the lore?
In this man's world, disposability's core,
But I won't dwell here anymore,
Refuse to be just another score.
If you have a father, son, or friend,
Consider the world they navigate, contend,
Not the same for us, it's a bend,
So don't judge us for the path we fend.
Spring comes, not just for women's plight,
Men bloom too, in their own right,
Don't underestimate our capacity's might,
In a world that stifles, dims the light.
So don't punish me for not fitting your plan,
Rejecting this world that suffocates man,
I'm more than a label, more than a clan,
Not just a man, but human, understand.

My Silent Screams Part One
My silent screams,
The echo in my dreams.
This face that carries all the smiles
The silent screams, go for miles
My silent screams, going on for years
Falling on so many deaf ears
These silent screams in my mind
No one can hear my thoughts if I keep telling them I’m fine
These silent screams carry no words,
Only the feeling of darkness like cattle in herds,
Its the happiness as if holding water in my hands,
It just flows between my fingers and disappears into the sands,
These run and race through the extremes,
I smash my face into my pillow to muffle the soundless screams.
My Silent Screams Part Two
These dreams and screams are my prison,
The hopes and prayers of believing I have risen,
I think of all the things I consider a blessing,
And like a salad it drowns in false dressing
All of the things I believed and said,
Crumble a part like overbaked bread,
I toss and turn but no matter what Ido,
the neverending worries are never through to you
You shame and hate
You always think its great
Even when the tears roll down my face
Your empty promises think it's a race
I scream and then yell
with no one I can tell
So I sit quietly
So so nicely
But nothing is ever enough
You always think I need to be tough
You never think of the possibility
You’re making more vulnerability
In my silent dreams,
they echo with my screams
Your face that carries all the smiles
My hatred goes for miles
My Resounding Decrees (Part Three)
(January 3rd 2021)
My resounding decrees
The echo in my pleas
This life that carries darkness
Is redeemed by my saviors selflessness
My resounding decrees, downed my screams
Filling my future with open dreams
These resounding decrees carry no weights
only the fulfillingness that never breaks
the seeping sadness flows out of my hands
through my fingers and into the sands
these decrees float and caress through my dreams
there is no time and need to make my screams
my decrees and dreams have risen
christ the lord unlocked my prison
All of the things he commanded in love and said
Is nothing compared to the words like I have have read
my boat of life tosses and turns trying to get through
jesus takes that wheel assuring no loss of love no matter what I do
No shame no hate
He assures you
When my tears roll down my face
His fulfilling love wipes the with Grace
No screams, no yelling
No limit to who I’m telling
When I sit quietly
Your glory shines brightly
You always think of the possibility
With you, you allow us to have vulnerability
In my resounding decrees
the echo within my pleas
My face with smiles
Your love for miles

The Silent Counselor
November 2017
My bed is my silent counselor
He is there when I softly whisper in my sleep
He is there when I whisk my own tears from my cheek
My bed is my silent counselor
He is there when I read my books so grand
He is there when I hide my contraband
My bed is my silent counselor
He is there when I hide my face
He is there when I feel like a disgrace
My bed is my silent counselor
He is there to listen to my murmurs as I sketch the dreams
He is there to comfort when my parents let their anger loose
My bed is my silent counselor
He is there the guardian to the lost dreams
He is there for the younger ambitions in the aethereal river
My bed is my silent counselor
He is there for the basic ramblings
He is there when it’s just all scrambling
My bed is my silent counselor
He is there for every lie and every truth
He is there to keep and transfer my tooth
My bed is my silent counselor
There is no substitute
To honor him is my resolute
