I have been writing since I was eight years born & raised in northern new jersey. After having two near-death experiences and losing my passion for writing poetry, my daughter, girlfriend, and my grade school teacher got me back into the art of words. I remember a conversation that I had with my teacher. He told me the jocks might get the girls now but keep writing poetry because the words will get the words the girls once the jocks are old and fat later. Now I have the love of my life due to the poem I left on her car windshield. P.S. The poem The PROPOSAL was a success. She said yes, so the teacher was right."I THINK MY WORDS KNOW YOU" Poetry.com.

BRIDGESI am waiting for the truth to come to me inside the darkness of the night, just like the day that I was born, but who gave me life? It is I alone that breaths this air, waiting for the stars to fill the skies of my reality where nothing seems to be... | 9 Views added 9 days ago | Rating |
STEPSI take one step forward and two steps back. I don't know how long it will take to get there, but I know I will because my feet will not allow me to stand still. The person you see is not the same person you saw yesterday, nor will you see tomorrow.... | 11 Views added 11 days ago | Rating |
