Always forever

Eternally together

Nothing is better

–

Aflame connected

Safe and always protected

True love perfected

–

A passionate touch

Melts my soul and means so much

Strength without a crutch

–

Softly in a bed

Never gently do we tread

True passions are fed

–

Please join me right now

Let’s share our heavenly vow

The who why and how

–

Into the sandbox

We never stare at the clocks

Remove shoes and socks

Mirror Souls

Two hearts will be one

The time is now to have fun

Eyes bright, like the sun

–

Soft warm hazel eyes

Perfect legs and luscious thighs

My heart grows a size

–

No rush times my friend

Fun filled times without an end

Physics warps and bends

–

Time slows down our view

I know, crazy but it’s true

It happens with you

–

You feel like I do

Like you always wanted to

Bright futures a view

–

Trust in yourself now

Don’t worry about the how

Keep a solum vow

–

Dancing in the rain

No need to feel any pain

You’re yourself again

Art Work by Melissa Daugherty.

A perfect sphere surrounds us each day

It’s our reality of everything we see

A myriad of emotions, are at play

And many affect both you and me

–

Outside the sphere, feelings abound

And each its own unique face

Happiness, sadness, and others are found

Surrounding people of every race

–

Which we choose or rather chooses us

We often have very little choice

Confronting our feelings is a must

When talking in our inner voice

–

We might as well roll with it all

There’s no need to lose control

Feelings, inside of us rise and fall

Learn to ride the ebb and flow

–

So how do we deal with all these thoughts

How do we gain an upper hand

Dealing with the past, you’ve wrought

Helps you draw boundaries in the sand

–

Then one day, you create a space

Between what you see and what you feel

Putting self control in place

Preventing overreaction, a bad way to deal

–

So as the realities challenge with strife

Remember, you are in control

Of your reality and your life

Don’t let your feelings take a toll…

Standing

Originally published on 03/30/2024

-Standing, alone but strong and firm.

-Waking each day filled with gratitude and an increasing sense of wonderment.

-Sitting silently contemplating change and where it will bring life.

-Lying down, softly encouraging the placement of each new brick, as I rebuild a foundation.

-Loving every second in this life, it’s been far from easy but nothing should be altered.

-Feeling each moment to the next and absorbing everything around me.

-Tasting the air the saltiness of it the freshness this is bliss.

-Holding fast and dropping obsession with a past that cannot change.

-Chomping at the bit for a future of endless fun and adventure.

-Closing chocolate-eyes and dreaming of desires and making them realities.

-Finding oneself and grabbing onto this wild eccentric person destined, without fear, trepidation or hesitation.

-Burning flames of a past to ignite a future that is, everything…

Mine is Yours in Alimony 💸

Anthony5 Comments

You are commander and chief

of all my financial grief

💰

Your many scores

ride on my chores

💰

Your desert bane

is my source of pain

💰

Your constant spending

is for me, never ending

💰

Your frequent travels

cause my wallet unravels

💰

Your rides on trains

as I’m shackled in chains

💰

Your glorious fun filled life

comes from my hard work and strife

💰

Your laugh and giggle

as I crawl like a worm and wriggle

💰

Your hoots hollers

are from my hard earned dollars

💰

But there are two payments left

Then a finality to your theft…

Fun At Last Paid for in my Past

Anthony8 Comments

I have been to hell and back

Upon the most treacherous course

My life and memories in a virtual knapsack

Navigating my life, post divorce

–

I don’t know where I go next

But I know it’s going to be fun

My past days of being hexed

Are all finished and truly done

–

Endless adventures await my life

I’m enjoying the unknown of each day

Over are all my days of strife

And now it’s time to enjoy and play

–

Tomorrow isn’t guaranteed

So each our lives, we must not waste

For the hazards of our pasts we all must heed

To thrive inside our happy place

–

Endless days and laughing times

I look forward to enjoy

Sharing experiences with friends of mine

With hard learned lessons, I employ

–

Who knows next which way I go

Not even I can answer

But I’m enjoying the ebb and flow

Just like that of the dancer…

It’s been a long time.

–

Now I manifest.

Happily conquer each test.

Now I am my best.

Watch out world I’m here.

Without anything to fear.

My future is clear.

Past pains taught me well.

I no longer dwell in hell.

In my own love spell.

–

Living truly free.

The way life’s supposed to be.

I age like a tree.

–

Slow but determined.

My blessings will never end.

Now that I’m my friend.

–

I branch out and grow.

Letting my future just flow.

It’s great just to know.

–

Love comes to me now.

Achieving self love that’s how.

Time to take a bow.

–

After we begin.

A great future is my win.

As the present’s been.

–

Now a door is closed.

Feel happiness non-opposed.

Doubtless is supposed.

–

A new door is ope.

Take brave steps and have high hope.

No more need to cope.

Gently close your eyes.

Rain’s purity is a prize.

The wind is at its rise.

These words are over.

No need for you to hover.

This is my closure.

opaque shapes don’t hide the sun as the warm breezes gently kiss

–

suddenly I inhale an entire grove of coconuts and she’s there

–

laying on a blanket bikini laden dark soft skin drinking up the sunlight

–

refreshment of her design in hand complete with umbrella and ice

–

sporting Jackie-O sunglasses and enjoying all life has to offer

–

legs trim and long and strong and beautiful bringing my mind to a place where pain doesn’t exist

–

she smiles a wry smile at me and as usual challenges me, I feel the shock as the cold water laps up my ankles

–

stepping ever forward I am washed in the spray of soft white foam the smoothly caresses my arms and legs as I enter

–

I duck and dodge a behemoth of a wave just as an airplane flies overhead affixed to the back, car insurance ads

–

it’s up to my neck now, be careful, many drown here that are younger and fresher

–

a helicopter juts by and I wave that I am ok as a wave slaps my face with its cold fingers

–

that slapped burned as the salt water swirls in my mouth and I spit it out

–

kelp, seaweed, aliens I am unsure what this stuff is but it entangles me just as the woman on the shore did

–

I grab a handful and chuck it away and await its magic re-emergence

–

I turn to shore and head in the direction of the woman as her coconut essence calls out to me

–

a warm smile greets me and warm lips as well just as a gentle ocean wind catches us both enveloping us

–

contentedness without limit, warmth without cold and desire without rejection…

The beach calls us all into her soft sensual arms.

Adversity (Thoughts Before the Final Divorce 5/18/22)

Anthony24 Comments

What do you do when the well runs dry? When emotions are only anger and love dies

You reach out and communicate as much as possible but nothing changes her she just doesn’t want you anymore

You better youself and try to get stronger and more attractive but it has no effect and she is not impressed at all

what can I do or say to change how she feels and lives as nothing seems to impact her demeanor or how she feels

I’d seel my soul to get her to love me like I loved her that doesn’t work either she’s moved on

We do things but they feel like bones she has to throw rather than something she wants to do

I’d rather not be an obligation to anyone

I’d rather be a choice than an option

How will I go on, with all this hurt and pain

I always will, force of nature or habit, pick one

I love the kids and grandkids

How will I live without them, that’s very possible starts anew for the third time, is beyond sad

I can never get things right in my life always taking the course of highest resistance moving straight up hill forever seemingly

I just want to be a happy fellow and feel fully actualized in my life

To do so I have to build up myself created an infrastructure that has never existed

I have to create foundations pore concrete and lay down the plans for a new life and a new me that is able to be happy even if alone forever

I don’t know how I will do it all alone but I likely will have to and flourish despite the lonliness

I guess I am destined to be alone maybe it is as it should be…..

I will love myself somehow because it’s necessary.

If I don’t, then no one will…..

A New Phase

AnthonyLeave a comment

Between sleeps today I had a vision.

Opened eyes to silent but familiar dark room, alone but not alone.

Holding a candle which is the only light.

I blow it out with parsed lips.

Silent darkness, the waxy smokiness wafting in the air for a moment then gone.

This journey’s phase is at an end and the next, underway…

Jack 🐶 And Jill 🐱

Anthony5 Comments

Jack and Jill not up a hill but lying in a bed

One curled up all in a ball the other rests her head

–

Lick attacks and lick attacks and end endless fur and hair

Makes the owner of the bed quite Jack and Jill aware

–

Playing games and chasing tails are their fitting fancy

For if they’re left with own devices then they’d get quite antsy

–

Jack and Jill not up the hill but sitting on a lap

Closing eyes weary from play and a quiet nap

-aaa ❤️

Frustration!

Anthony6 Comments

Movement encircles me but gets me nowhere.

Stagnant I’m stuck and can’t progress.

Greatness awaits greatness awaits I keep hearing it but I’m not achieving it.

Such promise he’ll reach someday but someday is not defined.

It’s between 1 hr and infinity seeming closer to the latter.

Everyone seems to be moving effortlessly while I’m gimping slowly painfully along…

I pay and I pay and I pay but my scores won’t go up.

To many options to live and I have no idea what to do…

Dreamer of a Reality

Anthony2 Comments

I can taste your color

And it appeals to me

You are like no other

That I have ever seen

–

My heart flutters

When you are near

I’m melting butter

Each time you appear

–

Come closer to me

So I can see your face

An endless sea

Of beauty in place

–

Beautiful hair that’s heaven sent

And stunning eyes that stop my heart

Knowing now what the ‘others’ meant

Truly sets your uniqueness apart

–

I pinch myself am I awake

Or maybe you are just a dream

Feeling you makes my insides ache

Perhaps it’s somewhere in between…

Queuing Up at Avalon

AnthonyLeave a comment

I’m always in someone’s way

no matter what I do or say

–

Can almost hear an audible wine

Each time I queue up in the line

–

I step to the left or to the right

Trying to keep myself out of sight

–

And someone always asked if I’m in line

I say I already ordered and paid for mine

–

Always trying to find a place to stand

And not up in no man’s land

–

I hold my drink and stand and wait

For my name called with food and plate

–

Sometimes burgers, bagels, or fries

Or apple turnovers or another surprise

–

The wait is always long for my food

Because many other people know it’s good

–

Every Sunday morning, this is my treat

As I stop into Avalon for something to eat

–

So many times it’s kind of insane

I drop frequently and they know my name…

Hard Truths

Anthony6 Comments

Recollecting the pasts loves of my life

I mediate and I close my eyes

I can see myself through their eyes

All the love that wasn’t reciprocated

All the deceit and manipulation

And then it hits me like a ton of bricks

They never saw me at all

They never truly knew me we or wanted to

They only knew what they needed and saw me as a means to get there

Knowing is empowerment

I’ll choose better, smarter next time…

Sugar, My Cure My Curse

Anthony1 Comment

Sugar sugar please don’t be high

But if it’s low, ill never cry

–

A sip of Apple or orange juice

Always lets my numbers loose

–

Candy cookies yummy things

Fresh French fries and onion rings

–

Kettle chips and puffs of cheese

Never ever fail to please

–

Sickly sweet and honey taste

I’ll never let it go to waste

–

Soda Pop drinks and punch

Always raise my sugar much

–

Prick a finger stick and touch

Hoping the digits won’t be much

–

When it’s low I feel complete

Because I get to eat and cheat

–

If too low an alarm will sound

Or I’ll face plant it on the ground

–

Too high of sugar is a goal that’s missed

And Never fails to make me pissed

–

Just give some space and I’ll be fine

And raise my sugar from 69

–

Diabetes it’s really the worst

Sugar, it’s my cure and curse

Fulcrum

Anthony6 Comments

Strength rises from within

Providing ease in adversity

Malleable to change and experience

Strong enough to withstand the fires of life

Redefining importance and priority

Easing the pain of the past letting old wounds heal

Becoming a center stone in your life age in the lives of others

Sharing your failures to help others find the path

Swelling with pride inside overcoming obstacles

Realizing you can have what you want

Manifesting a life you always wanted in every way

Continuing the work to become a better you

Rediscovering who you are and were meant to be

Be your own success story

Transform your life until there’s no recognition

Unburden yourself except your limits and mistakes

No one or nothing will stop you except you…

-aaa 🔥🔥

Reality Quest

AnthonyLeave a comment

Whatever will you do

When fairy tales don’t come true

–

Wherever will you look

Chucking every book

–

Abandoning each new plot

As something that we haven’t got

–

Searching for a relevant story

Not the drama insanity or glory

–

Rearrange the plot to make it work

Morph into a hero instead of a jerk

–

Be the man you were meant to be

In every way so the women can see

–

Just how great you really are

Then my friend you’ll be, a star

–

Top of their lists and gaining their call

Because you’re the one that is it all

–

Showing a light that beams from your soul

Will gain the trust that can bury the holes

–

Don’t give up as you are the best

As this is just another test…

Longing

Longing to see your face again longing to see your smile.

Longing to be with you and go out again in style.

–

Longing to spend some time with you in a sweet kind endeavor.

Longing to spend some time with you time that could last forever.

–

Longing to hold your hand as we walk along the street.

Longing to stay in step with and land gently with your feet.

–

Longing to sing a song or two and share a lovely tune.

Longing to gaze into your eyes reflecting the gaze of the moon.

–

Longing to feel your warmth and kisses all over my head.

Longing to have you come and share a soft cozy bed.

–

Longing to find the words that can do justice for you.

Longing to see a laugh, smile, and giggle too…

Rejection

Anthony3 Comments

What does it feel like?

Tingling dull pains and medium pressure running down to your lower abdomen.

Feeling small amounts of urine trying to escape your bladder.

The pain traces your heart and soul.

Warm heat radiating outwards to infinity.

You can feel these oscillations repeat.

Very warm cheeks as you’re flush feeling like the fool again.

You’ve had this enough times to recognize the patterns.

Someone has to so that others will understand…

Flavors of Danger

Anthony2 Comments

Rapsae and Aquitic live on a lopsided hill.

Always in search of their latest thrill.

–

Rapsae like heights and Aquitic dark caves.

Taking on adventure in infinite waves.

–

Rapsae is petite and loves flying in planes.

Aquitic tall and lanky but lacking in brains.

–

Many the times for Aquitic are tense.

Due to minimal common sense.

–

Exploring caves with no idea where they end.

Lands him hot water with his petite girlfriend.

–

But Rapsae is also dangerous to the core

Climbing sheer ledges and looking for more.

–

The ebb and flow from high to low.

Between this two is a nail biting show.

–

Flooded caves and slippery ledges.

One careless move and fall off the edges.

–

What is the cause are they just crazy?

Too much stimuli so don’t get lazy?

–

Where’s the catch what is the cause?

As they often compliment each others flaws.

–

Anyone observing might make a wager.

Over Rapsae and Aquitic’s love of danger.

–

Who will fall first place bets that fit?

A long fall to earth or a bottomless pit?

–

Living on a hill there’s fun to be had.

Then inertia and gravity won’t be so bad.

–

Carts and bikes, scooters and skates.

Combinations endless with safer fates.

–

Knee pads, helmets, pads and gear.

Testing their hill without any fear.

–

Rapsae and Aquitic share a deep love.

Fitting their dangers together like a glove.

–

The risk of death now lower for each.

Their hill’s steepness just within reach.

–

Sure they’ll be some broken some along the line for each.

But less likely an untimely death off a ledge or precarious breach…

Obsidian Delight

AnthonyLeave a comment

Obsidian beauty of dark delight let me love you and caress your tenderness.

Let me meet your warmth in turn with mine in a union of desire.

Hold me never let go and I’ll the share never-ending passion until the sun goes out.

Soft inviting lips beckoning soft touches with soft scarlet insides.

Tingles, tickle innards as a flock of butterflies fill a stomach.

Breathless, basked in their warmth, figures entangle with one another.

Knowing not where one begins and the other ends.

A rushing gush of pleasure washes over us as well gently collapse.

Into soft inviting surroundings never letting go of one each other.

Sunlight , basks her inviting features as the lucky lover takes her in.

Eyes never blinking for a moment making a mental etch of her stunning features.

Beauty such is this is typically reserved for the Gods, not mortals like I.

Luck is an understatement as the brilliant raven crosses the room cutting the distance between us all.

She’s mine for the moment and a small eternity can last forever.

With each kiss and touch, a piece of crimson narcissus falls away taking all pain and sadness that was in the wake…

Migraine

AnthonyLeave a comment

Jagged flashing lights on peripheral side

A warning is here you must abide

–

The shocking hurt will be here soon

Unconsciousness your only boon

–

Pressure crushing like the bottom of an ocean

Dizziness and nausea with each motion

–

Never want to leave the bed

Pulsing throbs inside your head

–

Close your eyes and pray to sleep

Never felt pain could be so deep

–

Front and back right side and left

Wishing this was all bereft

–

Suck down aspirins 3 at a time

Praying the pain will end this time

–

Wake up in the morrow and it didn’t end

First to greet you is that throbbing friend

–

Off with the lights embrace the dark

Relief to your eyes from daylight’s spark

–

Reading impossible it’s hurts too much

Nothing to bridge the gap or crutch

–

A silent prayer just to yourself

That this ends, a relief and wealth

Air

Become the wind

Moving and changing everything with a burst of energy

Flowing effortlessly with the breeze

Taking flight high above the earth

Warm updrafts lifting off

A gentle gust among a gale

Nothing is ever truly lost…

Sweet Sleep Surrender

Anthony6 Comments

Feel me, I am near you

Whisper and I’ll hear you

–

Share those secrets with me

Then let go and be free

–

Time will slow down, you needn’t worry

The universe doesn’t make us to hurry

–

Let’s enjoy our silver lining

Meeting in divine timing

–

The wait we endured has been too long

Any longer and our story would be a song

–

Through thick and thin clichés galore

Do stay longer and I’ll think of more

–

Just hold me tight and never let go

Even if the advanced hour tells you so

–

As the night deepens, you finally rest

Laying your soft head on my chest

–

I feel my heart start to soar

As you gently snore

–

Breathing soft and safe at last

From the horrors of your past

–

I finally close my eyes and drift away

Before the evening turns to day

–

I won’t move an inch as you gently sleep

For I know its relief is peaceful and deep

–

Blackness now surrounds this bed

As I drift away and lay back my head

Patience With Intention

AnthonyLeave a comment

Standby and steadfast.

Do not get caught up in the past.

–

Be vigilant be brave.

It’s a soul you gave.

–

Step slowly but consistent.

Change is hard, challenging resistant.

–

With each movement raise the bar.

Lesser versions of you afar.

–

Lessen your focus at progress slow.

Or easily frustrated at the pace of the flow.

–

Be present be here be now.

Enjoy your journey anyhow.

–

No one can ever take it away.

From today to your dying day.

–

Stand tall look how far you’ve come.

It’s all of the journey not the sum.

For one day, you’ll arrive at journey’s end.

And be actualized, whole, complete, my friend….

If I saw you right now what would I say.

If there were song for it what would I play?

If time were under control how would we clock.

If music were our favorite how would we rock?

–

If light is a relative thing how do we shine.

If hearts are to hold why not mine?

–

If challenge of change makes me burn 🔥.

Is the price of wisdom worth the spurn?

–

If the heartbreak was required.

Why wasn’t she mired?

–

If love is for the all.

Why wouldn’t she fall?

If growth is great and fear is small.

Did you just master walking tall?

I think it’s worth the price of purest gold.

Mostly happy and never sad.

Dwelling on positive is not a crime.

Grasps at the new things you can see.

Each challenge a new opportunity.

Awaiting a Piece of Cake Baked

Anthony2 Comments

1:45 am.

Cafe Americano 🍽️.

Having the munchies.

–

It’s the edibles.

Which were consumed earlier 🍬.

Always make me hungry.

–

At the nighttime hours.

Hence this current sustenance 🍱.

Where is my waitress?

–

Sitting at the table.

Awaiting chocolate cake 🧁.

I hope it is worth it.

–

First sweets in a while.

I hope that my mouth won’t hurt 😖.

The struggle is real.

–

Four teeth were just pulled.

My mouth is so empty now 🙄.

I will get it fixed.

–

I made a promise.

That I will eat carefully ⚠️.

Now and forever.

–

My dessert is here.

It is chocolate goodness 🍫.

I now can taste bliss.

–

Or maybe not yet.

Perhaps they just baked it now 😋.

Oh wait it’s here now. 😉

Hey There, Watson

AnthonyLeave a comment

Hey there, Watson what did you do?

Where has life landed you, friend?

Tell me tales of what you’ve lived through.

And how on earth they all will end?

–

I traveled deep into the darkness.

And I found light on the way out.

Most of my lessons far from harmless.

But that’s what my journey was all about.

–

Countless persons, experiences and such.

Formed the lessons I referenced before.

Love and strength were my only crutch.

Venturing past each slamming door.

–

What can I tell you my dearest friend?

Of what this world has given me.

Realities harshness doesn’t end.

Or a sweet reward of liberty.

–

Loving hard is not enough.

For person’s not worthy of a love.

No peace or beauty can be rough.

When all they do is push and shove.

–

Changes happened at this point.

An adoration for me I did find.

My gifts and talents I anoint.

As strength and power fill my mind.

–

The answers all kept coming.

To the questions remaining in my life.

With all my passions continuously summing.

I found the courage to leave my wife.

–

Toxic narcissism was her art.

From the beginning of our life.

Only when we were apart.

Did I realize I never had a loving wife.

–

Moving to a far away land.

I began the changes that never end.

Feeling empowered and really grand.

Starting affirmations I became a best friend.

–

A new career, no longer a phony.

I started writing for a living.

Helping me pay my alimony.

And providing me was sorely missing.

–

Purpose, usefulness, and daily challenge.

Or a steady part of my career.

This is how I get my revenge.

Building a future not muddled, but clear.

–

Final words my friend for you.

We can drop a needless fuss.

The brightest future now in view.

Succeeding example for the rest of us…

Rebuild, start again.

–

Reach down deep inside.

Where your feelings cannot hide.

Aside, foolish pride.

–

Know your heart and beat.

Find that you’ll never retreat.

It lays at your feet.

–

Destiny is yours.

Like the winningest racehorse.

Take the desired course.

–

Be proud, look at you.

Only at your best it’s true.

Now it’s time to do

–

Take these flames to bed.

Smile as you rest your soft head.

Think of what’s been said…

I am a Martian

AnthonyLeave a comment

I am one of a kind

Unique is the rule

No one to bind

As I’m a fool

–

Far from my planet

I’m all alone

I take nothing for granted

A billion miles from home

–

Sensitive to all that feel

But none of them feel a thing

Truly alone is my real

As I feel often loneliness’s sting

–

My plight is all mine

And mine all alone

Nobody to match me is a crime

That’s hurt me to the bone

–

I have a giant third eye

It’s my greatest power

I can feel it when you cry

Or when you’re glowing like a flower

–

No antennae on my head

I’m not sporting a green face

No what is ever said

I’m scorned by the human race

–

Being so weird makes me sad

I never do quite fit in

Many frustrations to be had

Despite the effort, I never win

–

So I gaze low eyes to the sky

As I sit here all alone

Ever hoping a saucer will come by

And return me to my Martian home…
