My first poetry book, As Life Happens will be released on Aug 21. Mark your calendars.

I have recently moved all poems to one page. When you open the site all poems will be present. In order to get back to the actual home page click the home button.

The transition from boy to man is a complex squeeze.

Enclosed by life’s pressure I struggle to breathe.

Maybe I am not Ford Tough after all.

Life gives two options.

Continue to climb or you will not prevail.

I knew that one day I would grow.

I was unaware when that day would be.

My mindset changed.

Life changed accordingly.

Memories remind me of who I once was.

I then realize life cannot be recaptured from the past.

When I was a child.

I spoke like a child.

Reasoned like a child.

When I became a man I gave away childish things.

I will soon be releasing my first poetry book. Until that time I leave a few poems. Feel free to leave comments.

I was told to never let tears fall from your eyes.

A mask is the perfect disguise.

My emotions stay on the backburner.

I contemplate how I will survive without prior knowledge of being alive.

You are a natural release, but I hesitate if I should ever let you leave.

I am ashamed of your nature as you leave me vulnerable to bleed.

When you fall from my eye.

I quickly wipe you.

The slightest sign of weakness my ego cannot take.

I am entrapped in tears hoping they will flow.

I am in bondage and I am praying to be set free.

I wish my emotion were not soft spoken.

Tears roll down from my eyes as pain is released from my soul.

I am not weak, but these tears help me to gain control.

Elijah Taylor
