Burning, crying, screaming, pain
Will nothing stop these incessant flames
Gasping, moaning, lose of breathe
Begging, pleading for eternal rest

Beating, cheating, stealing, lying
Someone please stop these children from crying
Hope and joy start to fade
People throwing meaningless fits of rage

Horrific sadness, death, and lose
How is this foolery helping our cause
What does all of this even mean? 
Nothing but a terrible dream

This horrible, frightful dream
Wondering what this even means?
Someone has sent this to be seen
I am determined to know its purpose for me

At the window I stop and stare
Wondering whats happening out there
Down the stairs and out the door
What I saw through my window wasn't there anymore

Maybe i'm crazy or maybe I've gone insane
I wonder what changes have altered my brain
What if i'm fast asleep and this is all a dream
But what if its NOT and this is my reality!

Am I in Africa maybe France or even Rome!
Is this even my home?
Insanity consumes me, built a home inside my brain
The only thing I have left to feel is pain 

What are these things restraining me? Needles injected inside of me?
The walls are white and there is nothing but silence 
Wait! There are people but do they really think their pirates?
Oh man, take me now. Depression so strong I cant even crack one smile

Just a minute what is that sound 
Noises almost like an alarm, a constant pound
YES!!! Its truly just a dream 
I am again with my true reality 

Guess it was those pills I took last night 
All I know is there getting flushed tonight! 


By: RaShawn E. Kellyman 

I wrote this poem many years ago in my childhood and as I look back on it I realized it was something intertwined with ME and what I was feeling at that time in my life. As I pondered this poem and its meaning I thought to myself it was worth sharing so here it is !!!!!!!!

73 parts Complete Mature
While tortured and held captive as a prisoner of war, she became my reason to keep breathing. The force that fueled my will to fight. To survive. When I woke after the rescue to discover the life I thought I was coming home to was but a figment of my imagination, hallucinations brought about by pain, desperation, and isolation... it nearly broke me. Fifteen years since I first lost her, at last, we have a second chance. Holding her in my arms, finally feeling the warmth of her skin as she melts under my touch, is like a dream. She and her two little girls are now as essential to my existence as the air I breathe. However, just as things start falling into place, the universe steps in, threatening to take it all away. I used to think that choosing her cost me everything I'd ever loved, but now I see that in choosing her and her children, I have the chance to reclaim all that I lost. They are my salvation. My true path to redemption. Which is why I'll leave no stone unturned, why I will scorch this world to the ground if that's what it takes to save them. And when I do, I will fight to convince her once and for all they are meant to be mine, just as I was destined to be theirs. In the Broken Redemption Series, one man's vow to protect the woman he lost becomes a battle between redemption, forgiveness, and the kind of love that refuses to let go. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~ This is Book 3 of Lucas & Emilia's Broken Redemption arc, the emotional conclusion to their story. For the full journey, start with Book 1: Broken Vows.

One sample of my work (Note not all poems will be so serious, some are story like others are light hearted): "Every day, something happens... Someone gets bullied, Just because "They're different" "Nerdy" "Annoying" "Have no sense of fashion..." All those things are of unimportance...! Everyone has a choice, Don't let what someone says, change it! You could stand down... Watch as the victim pleads for help... That's the easy path, But is it the right one? Do you want that on your consciousness? The pain can be so bad... It takes a life... Then it's too late, Regret becomes your best mate... A depressing thought... Although. It doesn't have to be that way...! YOU can make it change! Stand tall, speak loud, Stand up for what is right! That one action... Can save a life...! You could make a friend, A REAL friend. Spread awareness and Right the wrong! Be brave! For those who suffer... You're not alone...! If there's no knight to slay The evil demons away... Find it within you, to be strong! If you get no help, save yourself! You deserve happiness, and it will come! For karma never forgets you! Nor your enemies... Once it comes around, it will go around... Speak out, you will be heard...! The era of bullying will be no longer...!"
