A Moment's Touch
A Moment's Touch When the sun sets, Adorned in all her blazing glory, With the tresses of her dress fanning out in brazen colors Along the skylines, As she elegantly descends To greet in passing the tickled horizon – does she yearn for the moon's cool touch to sate her burning desires? Does the...

Gentle Sleep
Ah, the sweet moments of nothingness in my mind, as I close my eyes to sleep away the day's stress; where I feel the gentle moonlight's soothing caress, And all my fears and worries to be left behind.

Winsome Veneer
Winsome Veneer Amidst the wondrous, beauteous lies, Is a girl lost in romantic disguise. She dreams of a prince to come rescue her, A man brave and true, who naught can deter. She wishes to be swept away to the stars, Where a land of mysteries lie so very far. She cannot help but hope for this, For...

Behind These Eyes
Behind these eyes hold the restless questions: How many understand? How many can move on? How many will fall? How many will I save? Behind these eyes hold the saddest questions: How many sleep in a car? How many don’t have a home? How many hurt others? How many hurt themselves? Behind these eyes...

To Have and To Hold (Diminished Hexaverse)
When the world breaks down, When the sun has cried, When the clouds have flown, When the moon has died, And the stars have sinned, I will not care, I will not look, I will not miss, I will not cry. When all’s gone, There is naught, But one thought - That holds Me near. You. Copyright © 2008 by Mindy...

Bittersweet Need (Villanelle)
Every heart holds the faith to be loved true, While the mind has the skeptic to doubt it, For the sweet soul has the need to love you. Within your deep eyes does real love imbue, From them, shades of warming rays do emit, Every heart holds the faith to be loved true. It doesn’t matter when you say...
