What do I do now?

Am I prepared for what is to come?

A mix winds of anxiety nervousness and fear.

Twirling rapidly through my head

Having no

Shades of

darkness,

Sunrays of

strips and waters

Conceived by

demons and tears

Born in red waters

Slaved in

body and sight,

Freed from

stars and faith,

Diagnosed with

the evils,

As demons,

take me astray

The Common Evils

Thank you for yourself

Thank you for my tomorrows

Appreciate the questions

Answers of sorrow

Thank you for you

Thank me for being I

Ordinary people

Ordinary lives

Loving the sad

But hated by love

Thank you all

Thanks to what

The worry the sweat the pain

Loneliness anxiety heartache.

Financial headaches are most common

As I sit in my home away from home.

Am I doing the right thing

For me my wife my son.

I'm beating and racking my brain for answers

I am forever receiving none!

Who I am

I am one with the keyboard

One with a pencil or pen.

To speak a word to someone

Is like being in a lion's den.

Flowing through my figures like a light breeze

Words just naturally come to me.

But to speak them I'm a

As her pink nails grasp the steering wheel

Prada shades cover her unforbidden eyes

Reminiscing of wet kisses

She arrives at 228 Covenant Dr.

Home sweet gone

Her thoughts remain torn

While opening the car door

A sense of confusion is reborn

Kenneth walks from the bedroom

As she rushes to the bathroom

Avoiding eye

Embracing the truth

They sob with disappointment

Feelings of dizziness

She runs to vomit

The essence of betrayal

Kenneth calls her phone

"I'm just getting home..."

"How long have you been gone?"

She startles and says

"I ran a few errands..."

"I'll be home in thirty"

He says "Love you Mia"

"See you in thirty"

Kenneth's on his way home

In the midst of rush hour

They giggle and talk more

After sex in the shower

They say opposites attract

Their bond is a bit deeper

As the conversation goes on

They reveal the darkest secret

Darious had a father

Who pasted two years ago

She tells him with emotions

On a crisp fall morning

The essence of lust fogs the street

Patiently at 11:52a.m.

They greet off 10th street

The smell of cinnamon

He can taste her soft skin

Conversations mutual patients

The affairs from within

She tells her story

All sad and blue

He extends his shoulder

While strolling through the avenues

The thoughts of innocents

Lingers from heaven doors

Exhales of relaxation

When it rain it pours

Admiring the fire

Over candlelights and cheers

Inhale the celebrations

Precious, pure and fair

Kenneth's call is silent

So was the truth

Blinded by the art

Playwriting the fool

The lies beneath

The sincerity of marriage

His card she stares

Awaken for tomorrow

The morning arrives

She waits for Kenneth's departure

He says "Goodbye"

She dails with quiet laughter

The preacher answers

They talk throughout the morning
