Time

Woke up this morning opened my eyes, only to see darkness
Raised my arms to the sky, stopped short by Earth’s weight
Motions hard for me to make.......my space confines me
This time I should take, take time to realize......realize the moment
Late........no time to be around
The only sounds to be heard are my heart and faint breath
The warmth of me escapes quickly
Unlike my soul.......the only strength left
Did I kiss the children?
Did I kiss my love goodbye?
Or did we truly live a lie?
Should I have spoken louder or stayed silent?
Kept all thoughts in my mind
Blind to all the inequitableness of time
Scenes of life pass
Like leaves falling from trees
Whisked away by time’s breeze
My call to you falls low
The darkness blinds me
There is no light
Though the children I still see
The time has come to shut my eyes

It is not me

I will not be pushed off this tightrope
When I reach the other side I will have no regrets
I will always do what is right... no matter
So for now I will cope
I guess I just need you in so many ways
To help me realize
Reminding me, though my shoulders are broad
And I wear the word Father on my chest
This world will spin no matter
When that person trips I need not always run
When they are disappointed I need not apologize
Responsible and forward thinking
Always doing my best to be
I will thank you for reminding me
Though I may be in the vicinity
It is not me

Beginning 2011

So I've been off the radar a bit lately... plotting on the new year. Making the main focus for Ed Marshall Photography shooting out of state more frequently 2011 and beyond. Ending this year I have had the great opportunity of shooting some very motivated and strong artists. I will be keeping you posted here about their art and future plans. Along with images and pieces that I tend to scribble on any and all pieces of writable medium.

Until the New Year my friends!
