This certain page of poetry was made with a friend of mine in mind (you know who you are)- for you, to you.  Enjoy.

"Victory's Silhouette Against the Dawn" 10-4-1999

The sun breaking through the darkest hour of the night
In the dirtiest ally of the city, a butterfly takes its flight

A diva singing sweetly within a world of silence
A blade of emerald grass standing out from a desert so tense

A fighter proud and strong, yet a Romeo holding a gentle rose
With a sword that could destroy a diamond and a heart that could never close

Clever and quick, a warm friend or truly ominous, a lion's roar and a kitten's pur
There will never be such a dearer friend than the reinassance man, The Keeper

The sun breaking through the darkest hour of the night
Walking away with a victorious grin from another victorious fight

"Autumn" 3-5-2000

The rain isn't sobbing but there's no smile of the sun
I lost track of the seasons a long time ago
And before life is clear I'm suffocating with snow
And at this point my heart screams I already know
You're the one

Flowers have bloomed and I shine like the spring
Your warmth and your strength wrapped around me
And you give so much love so sincerely
But when you ask for my heart and look into my eyes
All you find
Is Apathy

Dearest angel, it's beyond even my own understanding

At night, when I'm alone with my thoughts
And a sigh emerges through the silence
I imagine my pillow has your heart and your soul
And my heart tries to beat out of my chest

It seems... maybe I do not show it
But sometimes "true love" could not begin to describe
What I feel... is our hearts intertwined
And I couldn't live a moment longer without holding you tight

But as the ocean meets the shore
In a furious titanic roar
Common sense blocks my heart from ecstacy
And the moment my mind begins
It tells my heart of dirty sins
Of all the nightmares come true that would find me
That is, if I were to let my heart be free

And so the fire becomes ice
And so desire to apathy
Doors of trust slam and lock
And you collapse to your knees

Autumn... the leaves chill and fall
Confusion... thoughts making no sense at all
Persistence... love will never slide
Freedom given before I lied

I thought once that you and I were strangers never to meet
But the connections and fingers entwined
And your tender lips to mine
Oh, dear God, why did I lie?!
Because I was desperate to hold you by my side!

Dearest angel... cross your heart and tell.... how could you be so forgiving and sweet?

Winter to spring, summer to fall...
Why did this angel have to fall?
I'm so grateful... though it's beyond my understanding
