The Poet's Verses
This is a collection of my poetry written in the past decade or so.  As you'll soon learn, I tend to find inspiration in the opposite sex...most of my poetry was written for or about women.

Despite this previously stated fact, not all of these compositions are nice and romantic - some have to do with the heartache following a breakup, etc...and aren't pretty by any means.  Those titles will be in
blue.

I do proscribe to the philosophy that 'it's better to have loved and lost than to have never loved at all'. 
That being said, I also believe that you've never felt heartache until you've felt love.

Please note that all works are original and copyrighted.  The poems have NOT been edited for minors (
gasp!), so there are some potentially offensive words afoot.  Any of these poems will be listed in bright red, so beware before you read.
