Between Friends

Sparks fly against a starless sky,

a warm breeze against your skin,

cold damp grass on bare feet,

a secret whispered between friends.

Scratchy bark on bruised knees,

giggles breaking silence,

autumn colors on falling leaves,

adventures shared between friends.

Fearlessly jumping from rock to rock,

bubbling water splashing around the bend,

slippery feet and balance thrown off,

a helping hand between friends.

Aroma of coffee and a bittersweet taste,

reminiscing about treasured moments,

a warming bond that never ends,

the love only shared between friends. 

In Your face

In your face         Originally written Sunday, August 06, 2006

So, thru all the darkness I have dwelled,
and all the curses I’ve dispelled,
all the triumphs, failures, and cats games,
it seems that nothing is the same.
I've finally reached my goal,
fulfilled my heart and soul,
become that which I’ve desired,
and lit my existence on fire.
I've obtained my life’s ambition,
following no mans tradition,
doing it all my way, at my pace,
just to stick it in your face.
