Sanctuary of My Mind

Poetry and Prose will take you away, you'll be drifting between darkness and eternal moonlight...savage passion and reasonable love will sing their songs...flickers of happiness,embers of sadness...all you need to forget time is still ticking. (written by a reader)

Still Beautiful



Everything about you is still beautiful
Even though I’ve seen you at your worst
True character is thus defined
As you stand there naked with nothing left to lose
And still, you hold on to your principles
As the Queen you are
In that moment,
You are more beautiful than any woman
My eyes have blessed to gaze upon
And if by some fortuitous twist of fate
My sight is taken away
By someone far more knowing than me
There would be no need to see anything else
I have seen beauty from the inside and her name is You.

Special Someone

To find that special someone
Who loves you despite yourself
Is indeed a wonderful thing
That should leave you believing
That all things are possible
Even when you weren’t even looking
Love found you hiding your heart from her
But when she wants it
It’s hers without even asking
That’s the way love goes
Sometimes she knows you better than you know yourself
She will give you what you need
Which doesn’t always mean it’s what you want
When you find that special someone
Open your heart to let her in
True love may never come your way again
Do all you can to make sure she stays
Love her the way deserves
And she will love you with all of her heart.

The Future


To see youth in earnest
Fresh like spring
Does my heart good every time
The future may be in doubt
But all is not lost
When in their eyes
River of thoughts float by
A spark of interest
Beyond their own existence
Hold their attention
All is not lost
There is still hope for the future.
