-Voice 12-

Thank you for your comment you posted on my blog. I really do appreciate your kind words. No, it's not my birthday, my birthday is on July 5th. I remember as a kid thinking to myself I can't wait until I'm such and such age and thinking that once I make it to that age my life will be so much better and now I'm thinking to myself I can't wait until I'm 49 because that's when I'm going to be released from prison but in doing that I'm not living life, I'm living in anticipation of a life that I'm not promised. Thanks again and hope I write something that piques your interest enough that you comment upon.

I wrote this poem for my wife for Valentine's Day on 2/13/13.

-Not Enough-

Every tear you shed
Drowns me in your sorrow
Your love
Allows me to swim towards the light of your soul,
That embraces me
And saves me from my darkness.

On 2/15/13 I got served divorce papers from a smiling tooth of the great beast "Rehabilitation". The best part of this pathetic rant is I honestly had no idea my ex wife was filing for divorce. No, my head was not stuck in the sand, two weeks before the kick to my heart's nuts I got a 7 page letter of love and the ache of missing me.

Best Part Pt 2

My ex wife wants full custody like I'm some fucked up drunk, wife slapping, child hating, smelly monster, so without saying so my ex wife says I'm no good for her and our daughters!

I now wear my rigor mortis smile without shame, I can't change the past but through my poetry and digging through my moldy soul maybe I can find a purpose to smile again.

I don't mind the rain,
It's the only time
My tears
Needs no explanation

What happens to me
Once the weight of my sins
No longer weighs so heavy
Upon me?
