Poems From The Heart of Wayne Hoss Read online

  All I want is love, understanding, and health

  Why is something so simple too much to ask?

  I know not of hate, for my heart has no room

  But as I see evil more and more, I hope he comes soon

  Nobody is perfect except the lord above

  I wait and pray to enter his world of love

  Don't Miss Me

  Please don’t miss me when I’m gone

  I've left this life to carry on

  The reason I write this poem like letter

  Is to remind you that where I am life is better

  In heaven there is no more worries, no more fears

  No more hurting and no more tears

  So please don’t worry, please don’t fret

  We will be together again, you can bet

  With your life you must continue

  Though you won’t see me know that I am with you

  So when you see those moving things

  It was just me flapping my golden wings

  If you should happen to feel a cold breeze

  It was probably just my heavenly sneeze

  If you see something as bright as a flare

  You will know for sure that I was there

  Always remember that I am no longer in pain

  In this death I had more to gain

  People have always seen death as the end

  Actually; it was for me that God did send

  In Heaven we are promised all of these things

  Promises even truer than to wed with golden rings

  Now that I have left please don’t cry

  For I am happier up here in the sky

  Someday together again we will stand

  Together with God in his promised Land!

  Friendly Voice of Woe!

  You meet this person who claims to be a friend

  He swears that he will be there until the end

  He seems so trust worthy there at first

  Little did you know that he was evils worst

  He was for you life’s evil thinker

  His evil suggestions your life’s sinker

  He spoke with a friendly voice of woe

  Influencing you to go where he wouldn’t go

  Slowly but surely he led you astray

  But where will he be come judgment day

  He said it was o.k. to do a few drugs

  Before you knew it you were running from thugs

  It was he whom persuaded you to have that first drink

  For he knew that under the influence you would not think

  It was he whom taught you such good lies

  And set you up with false alibi's

  Before long your problems did double

  Even he knew that you were headed for trouble

  Now that he suckered you into a life of sin

  He hid himself deep in the shadows within

  Your family tried to set off your conscious alarms

  As they sadly watched him lead you into Satan’s arms

  So now you’re at that dividing road

  Wondering which way to carry your load

  Give in to you heart and follow the Lord

  Let that friend carry his own sword!

  My Love

  I hoped and prayed and dug to the bottom of my heart

  Asking God that you and I love each other and never part

  You are more to me than gold is to a miner

  There is nothing better, nothing finer

  When I look at you I think of spring

  Sweet, beautiful, innocent and calm

  You are what I want more than anything

  Make me putty and melt me in your palm

  For if what makes us part is me

  I will do anything to change

  My love for you is true eternally

  All that I want is to keep you in my range

  I only ask that you let me know

  Where and how I went wrong

  So that true, live and bright as snow

  I may come back hard and strong

  If the words from your precious lips

  Say you do love me true

  Tell me or put a pen in your fingertips

  Because nothing is stronger than my love for you!

  The Wrong Foot

  It seems like yesterday

  Though it's been years

  You threw my Love away

  And left me in tear's

  We hadn't been together long

  A couple of weeks at most

  I held on to you all so strong

  To be by your side and boast

  Before I knew it you wore my ring

  Then suddenly left me for another

  It hurt more than anything

  I went crying to my mother

  It wasn't long and you were back

  Once again we were side by side

  Though now my trust you would lack

  And my pain I would hide

  After you I had no other

  Yet seeing you in another’s arms

  Knowing you had slept with another

  Set off in me many alarms

  After two years you once again earned my trust

  We were happy again with a newborn child

  Until you kissed my friend with a lock of lust

  Shaking with fear I went wild

  You promised me "never again!"

  I wanted to believe it was true

  So again I let my heart mend

  For I felt destined to be with you

  It happened a third time

  This one went too far

  I brought home an acquaintance that had not a dime

  Not a home, not even a car

  You caressed him with your eyes, hands, and feet

  The next day I watched your child and mine

  You took my car shopping, but it was him you'd meet

  It went on a week not crossing my mind

  You took our children and left with him

  Neither of you knew where to go

  My heart stopped working deep within

  It seemed never again it would flow

  I never knew one who could be so cold

  And care not of the hurt of others

  I went crazy and slowly turned old

  Relied on my family, sisters and brothers

  Once again you've come back

  Again I accepted you and hid the hurt

  But I realize now a part of this relationship lacks

  I believe it is just in you to cheat and flirt

  It started all too wrong and I am sorry

  I guess we started on "The wrong foot!"

  Life

 

  Life is but a bucket of dreams to me

  Running along the beach hand in hand

  How I wish that I could share it with thee

  Come with me and we'll roam the land

  There is yet a beautiful world to see

  And if I had one wish I would demand

  That we would love each other eternally

  Dance romantically to the beat of the band

  Our arms elegantly wrapped as we sip our wine

  Staring one another spaciously in the eye's

  To be with you darling there's nothing more divine

  Not having you babe, the thought I despise

  Life to me is full of love and happiness

  As a dreamy romance at a movie

  All that I really ask of life is this

  For you to be by my side and share the dream with me

  I am a dreamer, though they usually don't become reality

  There is one that together we can make come true

  With your help I can reach that formality

  You see now my dream is to be with you

  What’s Out There?

  As I relax outside in my new lawn chair

  I gaze at the stars wondering what's out there

  Even more puzzled by were does space end?


  Then asking myself, do I believe in spacemen?

 

  Who made the earth, sun, and moon just for us?

  And what did he put beyond the star dust?

  If space does end, what begins there?

  Ask I might, but guess I don't dare

  Thought I seen a falling, bright star

  Till it stopped! Is it possibly a space car?

  Now it disappeared into thin air!

  Am I seeing things? I ask as I stare

  In space mysteries gleam out of sight

  Tired of guessing I just call it a night

  But in my sleep I will dream for answers

  And dream of those beautiful, star romancers

  Remember Me Always

  Remember me always the one you met

  Who had a truck instead of a Leer Jet

  It seems like yesterday I stole your heart

  Now we've drifted so far apart

  Truly the sweetest of all my acquaintance

  Definitely the most glamorous of all

  In my mind I keep your maintenance

  Now that you’re gone my world is small

  When I first met you, you could brighten any day

  Even use your sparkling eyes to light the night

  Now it seems as though today

  All we really do is fight

  How I want to believe that you truly loved me

  And felt that I was a part of your life

  For the love of your life I want to be

  To make you my only love and someday my wife

  So my love remember me always the one you met

  Because I am truly the one you will never forget!

  Fool of Fool's

  Talking of fools and hurting others

  Hurting peoples feelings to make it easier on myself

  I've been using excuses to cover up my errors

  As I stacked my maturity away on a shelf

  Who am I to judge?

  Who am I to name a fool?

  Why should I hold a grudge?

  Use it as a weapon and a tool!

  Expecting more attention than I give

  Now I realize like this it will be hard to live

  To reach my maturity and keep it in my grasp

  I'll need a little help and a kick in the ass!

  Who am I? Now I look in the mirror and see

  The fool of fools!

  Blue City

  Skies all over darkened with smog

  Blue waters turned green and dark

  Lumberjacks cut down our last log

  All cut down as man leaves his mark

  Cities still have green in various places

  But as contractors build it slowly disappears

  More buildings rise as man steadily races

  Taking precious land away from animals like deer’s

  So now today I dream of more green

  And add my special clean blue city

  Sometimes I feel that there is hope for my dream

  Until I walk outside awakened and think it's a pity

  Regretfully I see oil in the ocean

  And much crime throughout the land

  Man's greed shows with little emotion

  As trash and pollution washes onto the sand

  This dream of my Blue City shall come true

  As I pray that our wait not be long

  When the Lord comes with the Promised Land for me and you

  Then at last I will rejoice with a song

  We will run with the now tamed animals

  Pet the soft fur of Lions, bears, and Cubs

  Happiness so great, laughter can be measured in decibels

  No more War, hate, or nuclear subs

  Nobody but God knows when this will be

  Should I be in sin when he comes for the human race

  I beg forgiveness, and ask to walk with thee

  As I hope to be forgiven for being a disgrace

  The Dream

  Sitting here with no words to say

  Beautiful visions of you in my mind

  My dreams swiftly carry me away

  As my heart tangles and proceeds to bind

  Golden hair and sparkling eyes

  Something special that money never buy's

  Like the stars, your personality fills the sky

  I feel such warmth as you walk by

  Dreaming of you wishing you were mine

  If you can't be I hope to dream all the time!

  The Missing Link

  The times we shared were few yet many

  We shared some laughs and shared some tears

  We shared some times that were better than any

  Along with them were some hidden fears

  Now is the time to realize it is over

  The link we once had has diminished

  Like the missing link in a three leaf clover

  A fourth leaf torn, a relationship finished

  No Smoking!

  They first lit up just to be cool

  Smoking tobacco just to fit in

  Now realizing they were a fool

  Hurting their bodies deep within

  Innocent people next to them choking

  As even their Lungs are slowly charred

  Yet still people keep on smoking

  As we wait for tobacco to be barred

  Addictive Nicotine make's it hard to quit

  Though they always promise to quit soon

  A few minute's later another one is lit

  Increasing the risk of impending doom

  Don't they realize that it is wrong

  Hurting their bodies with tobacco

  Shortness of breath comes along

  Now they wonder if they are Wacko

  Spare your lungs and the lungs of others

  Make your habit chewing gum

  Before that smoke finally smothers

  And collapses that last lung

  Why Did God Put Thorns on Roses?

  Why did God put thorns on Roses?

  I think not to poke our noses

  Maybe the earth’s beauty he wanted to preserve

  He figured those who destroy it the poke they deserve

  Thorns to preserve beauty you might ask

  Yet this was Gods simplest task

  He made trees for shade and to filter the air

  Yet we cut them down like we don't care

  He put needles on porcupines for protection

  To keep them from harm I'd say from recollection

  He gave animals sharp teeth and claws

  He gave the alligators their mighty jaws

  He made the human body all so perfect

  He gave us special organs to filter defect

  God gave all living things its own defense

  So let’s help protect it, its common sense!

  Love of My Dreams

  Finally at last, the love of my dreams

  Golden hair and a silver smile

  So pure and perfect, yet unreal it seems

  To catch this dream I would run a mile

  So sweet and pure yet hurt so much

  Afraid to let go and feel true love

  Let the hurt be gone feel my touch

  Slip gently into my loving glove

  Feel my needs as I will feel yours

  Let honesty and love run our lives

  Around you, love from my heart pours

  My heart is yours to love or rip with a knife

  My dream is to love one, and only one

  And for her to love only me

  In my eye's your better than anyone

  Let’s love together, let our hearts burn free

  The sweetness of your lips touching mine

  The oceanic view of your eye's

  To me there is nothing as fine

  Nothing better that money buys

  Treatin’ You to Cheatin’

  So many times I took you to the Park

  The children loved it, I could
tell

  I never left you in the dark

  All of my secrets, you knew as well

  Always made sure you had a roof over your head

  I've even taken you places that you've never been

  You never had to worry about the kids being fed

  I even put up with your worst of kin

  I invited an acquaintance over for a beer

  Figured it was the polite thing to do

  Why you ran off with him still isn’t clear

  You left me alone, looking like a fool

  Always gave my friends the shirt off of my back

  As well as giving you both all of my trust

  Never expected to find you both in the sack

  Trading my trust for temporary lust

  There were other times I caught you with my friends

  Each time I was mentally beaten

  Still hurting I let you make amends

  Can't help but wonder why all my friends have been treatin you to cheatin

  Lord Knows

  Lord knows I've partied hard

  Lord knows I've partied long

  Now I must play my last card

  And hold on to your love so strong

  When we met I knew for sure

  In you was something special

  Your love and caring was my cure

  Such sweetness, yet stern and sentimental

  Started looking for love when I was young

  Through years of heartaches I grew cold

  But when we got together my heart sung

  I hope together we will grow old

  I ran wild but committed no crimes

  Dated so many, now I realize I loved so few

  Guess I was looking for the wrong signs

  None showed their love quite like you do

  You see now I need you, I love you

  Lord knows this is true

  Love Is

  Love is carrying your heart to its fullest extension

  Giving each other plenty of love and attention

  Love is a fulfillment of caring

  And plenty of a thing called sharing
