From beauty and compassion.
Laughter and love...
Dead mans toe,
Bubble, bubble, bubble...
You'll find me here in restraints,
just as I ought to be...
This creature who lives inside of me,
I'm unfamiliar with its name...
I know you see, that I fight and I fight.
I resist the urge, daily, to revert to type...
Sable water lives upon my cheeks.
These quivering lips could tell a story...
There's something nostalgic about
dimly-lit roads and faded footpaths...
Autograph the gravestone that replaces my heart,
for you have killed my insides. Chisel your last...
It's been almost 8 days since I saw your face
and I can't help but wonder what I'm missing...
Take me away to a far away place.
Where no one is judged...
Food coloring emotions
eased it's way within mirrors...
Four years after I ended the silence of your...
you decide to reply to my accusations...
You left me that morning and
so much was left unsaid. Who...
Roses are red,
Violets are blue...
He never had perfect prose,
nowhere near the sort...
I hide in the shadows,
And watch the world burn...
This isn't chess..he's not a pawn.
It's not about trying to checkmate me...
Alone in the wilderness of a pitch black forest,
the only light roars from a burning ember...
Rose
Petals...
Grey; just like your skies, my eyes are
raining dear Seattle, and I just can't...
It's been eleven years
since the day I left you...
The shackles return
And bear the memories...
Blinks of light glistening
in the sky, the stars of the...
Released your promise
shall be; for another has...
Ever so quietly, I watch you
with your desperate ear wide open...
Have you ever saw something
But never truly seen it...
A reservation for
two, for both my...
The silver crescent
kisses beautiful creatures...
Death of silence heavy
Eternity nears, seconds ticking...
Serpent tongue dives
deeply in the larynx...
Have you tried the butterfly project?
The Rules are simple...
I spent today inside a dream
so that I could be with you...
I always believed his lies, the power they...
and that he was the most powerful being on this...
I want to scream from the rooftop, hold
my arms to the air and let them see the...
To have the gift of sight
to witness before me...
The thick, contaminated vapor of your world causes...
I lost my ability to think for myself...
Ultimate depths of a woman's soul
are viewed in the eyes of the man...
Forget-Me-Not
she sits alone in her room...
This world echoes in the absence of brightness.
The stars don't shine enough, the moon fades...
For all the days counted, plus
all the days spent restricted...
A red dress that was skin tight
heels blacker than the night...
I travel all the woods,
I sleep in every burrow...
With a hint of crispiness
in the air, and the way it...
She leaves her watchtower, when it's warm and dry,
to kiss her blossoming babies goodbye...
You held me captivated,
prancing in an ocean...
With you there was no need
to borrow a pen, simply all you...
Inspired by the poem "Repairs" by Andrew...
Tools flood the garage...
There was a chill in the room when I came to...
I had answered my own question...
A bleeding curse prey on my existence.
It follows and devours in its own twisted fashion...
Let no shame shine on his tears-
Let him grieve, let him grieve...
Casual causeways of your essence and din,
built up to access a torn tissue heart...
I usually love the rain-
But, today, it sounds like...
I was the Blackbird trying to understand the...
but you were the Albatross sending omens through...
Standing in the background
merging quietly into shadows...
Frigid air, frostbites the tip of my
whispers to you...
How can you touch someone
who has so much dirt...
Dripping in the
essence of silence...
I declared a missing piece
of me earlier, but I never...
Friday passes in double shades,
as my eyes weaken from the...
I could be anyone I don't know
parts of me are unknowably strange...
If I walked barefoot for a thousand miles
to show up at your door...
I do not deserve your love
for I will never be worthy of it...
You plead with me to trust you
and for me to never doubt you...
I will gently hold your hand
and promise to never let it go...
I was born a yellow sunflower
with petals which should have grown...
He lost his
Shelia, upon a crisp...
I am going to bed tonight
with a heart full of smiles...
Like most of you;
Dumbfounded when asked to self reflect...
Black and blue,
The two colors that show what she has been...
Nightmares of demons,
nightmares of death...
The Willow and The Maple
I'm not quite sure...
Tear drops falling endlessly,
drowning out the pain...
I remember thinking that when I was sixteen
I could break free from the abuse...
Amidst darkness of slumber
Through veins flow life...
Your presence drains the life out
of my lungs,breathing becomes...
I feel like I was born into this.
I write therefore I am...
Poetic emotion,
grasping strength...
Spontaneous. Instantaneous. Our thoughts are
like time bombs marking away...
I lay here next to you
with death between us...
Ragged, jagged cliffs of copulation,
stain brazen stretches of isolation...
I miss you like I miss California thunderstorms...
because the storms there are unparalleled: you...
You left me standing alone
under a viaduct freeway...
"Dont think about it...Dont make up stories...
Stop daydreaming...Stop visualizing yourself in...
Deep in the belly of a
violent storm, rages...
Red is for the love in which my heart feels with...
Orange is for the vibrant warmth that surrounds my...
Black coal sizzles
upon rocks of uneven...
There is a space in my heart
where I know you belong...
What an eye can see,
the wind provokes...
Do you know what it feels?
Listening to the music your guitar plays...
Canary feathers
scattered in rage of sorrow...
Have you ever wished to freeze
time in a snowflake...
My heart is crying silent tears
because it feels your pain...
A shooting star flashes brightly across
the midnight sky above me...
Sat upon a bridge,
twenty minutes to...
All my life I have felt alone
because no one has understood...
Arctic wind freezes streets,
Never allowing the suns...
When I look into your eyes
there is a glow that gazes back...
There is a person who's path I've crossed
although I doubt she has noticed me...
Covering the lush green grass
with the cotton blanket...
A witness to murder of thy
broken heart , we barely knew ye...
Preachers keep preaching of
one love for each...
I'm tired-
of standing on the walls of your...
I see that line-
The one between scalp and skull...
Give me the news like
I take whiskey and coffee...
Feel the breeze cold,melody chime
Overhaul shadows belong the rhyme...
...
...
PAW....PAW.........PAW....PAW.........PAW....PAW...
Draped in shadows
he wept for the days...
Slithering along through the over grown grass
which has become his jungle home...
Behind this mask I hide
Just trying to conceal...
As the town around me sleeps.
I surround myself in lonely weeps...
I sit alone and cold in the darkness
Never thought it would end up like this...
It was just today that I realized the power of a...
REWIND...
Leafy medallion's
dangle from paint chipped pillars...
Each and
every time...
I spent a long time wondering if I would be the
price that you chose to pay for your brand of...
You're closer than air
Between the words that I sing...
I am the breeze
caressing a shadowing...
The pit of your eyes
are dark as night...
Stuck inside this desolate tomb,
isolated and withdrawn...
Your paw prints live on
inside my heart forever...
Saying goodbye to you stabbed me more than
the sharpest knife could ever do...
Trust is some thing strong,
so hard to give to others...
Overwhelmed,
overpowered...
I want you to lay me down and make love
to me all day and night. You're kind of...
Deep in the darkness of the stormiest sea
there is a monster chasing my soul...
Crawling along the cold concrete ground
Realising I can't escape your shadow...
There wasn't enough time
to tell you the titles of...
It lingers in the fridge,
covered in gravy...
We all have an attic, the repository of unwanted...
Dusty, old, the cobwebs lie in wait for visitors...
Stoic White Camellia
Devouring winters rainfall...
I
look at...
There is an angel that I know
and hold close to my heart...
My ears drown in the spittle of your bitter words.
Intentional, cruel and sufficient, you've become...
As the tongue trips, consonants drip,
defaming dubious dissertations...
How I separate my desperation
from this vapor-like illusion...
SPARK
voltage...
The pride that carries me to nowhere
takes these pithy words of comfort...
On the shelf, neglected
my Kama Sutra lies...
Your gaze
holds mine steady...
Petals
adorn the path...
Galloping horses
went to ride...
Last night I dreamt that I
was suspended in the sky...
Yield the stage for `a capella;
my friends all warm my dressing room...
Snap.
My heart...
Her face wore a blizzard
as the curtain bid adieu...
Contusions of the soul
turn to scars and scabs...
Caught up in whirlwinds of thought; Emotions.
Directions reversed, compass gone mad...
I longed for death, I welcomed
the reapers touch , but to no avail...
Our lips pressed close, I breathe in the
breath you have pushed from your chest...
You always want what you don't have and fail to...
~An epigram is a very short poem, usually two or...
This is to the keeper of my fate, you
omnipotent being who guards the gate...
< { [ ( | ) ] } >
For me, an orange is a shared fruit...
Dear mourners take heed of my lesson
each day you must live for all time...
Tromping
through woods...
Whenever you see
young child...
Softly falling from the sky,
Neatly landing on the ground...
When winter winds blow
hedges to and fro...
Snowflakes landing on your hand
then disappearing from your sight...
I fell hard as lightning striking
through cottonfields, fighting like...
You didn't ask me
"how are you?"...
I have a dream where I will live
in a future of freedom...
Touch me-
In secret places no one has reached...
~This was a challenge issued by my favorite Tree...
Chimera...
She stole Mona Lisa's smile, painted it
with Monet's sunset and hid it beneath...
Another "bad" idea
shuffling in my head...
I am alive now and only now.
I am not my past, the best of my past...
If this flirting is more than spontaneous fun,
I'd be overjoyed in silence because I'm afraid...
I accept the blame because you plead innocent.
All of my crying and helpless screams...
I bet you enjoy copying your words
and pasting them on lethargic hearts...
You had this way of
applying pet names...
He nestles near a river bed
of golden rod and honeysuckle...
Glide me over your lips,
Like pride mumbling tricks...
There's a dusty wooden staircase, with squeaky...
that ascend from my heart to my brain. Thoughts...
I heard the
Gossip Bird...
You stumble, you fall, you trip over words
unspoken. You mistake disaster for paradise...
Father kissed a hushing
rainfall, the night I silenced...
~Club Challenge, choosing one of the contents from...
I was a late starter when it came to cigarettes...
This poem was for a club challenge, never had time...
With our friendship coming to a shamble...
Drops of the deepest emotion falls
from the window to my broken soul...
One day changed her whole world.
The light shines upon her crystal...
Wiped my soul away
crossed scuffed jeans...
Darkly mysterious, she paint's a lyrical picture,
describing tints and shades of highlights of...

She never gets a fix off...

Anguish.

Slowly poisoning any chance of conforming, of...

Reflection is only natural
when you have no expectation...
Alone in the middle of nowhere,
darkness is it's name...
You're made of copper,
silver and gold...
How lucky you are, such a special little boy, to...
A perfect bundle of love and joy which mummy and...
This pen is a knife

It took me awhile to swallow
you whole but once I could taste...
Slipstreams of imperial guidance.
Wayward movements shadowed in...
This is a song I wrote about someone I know
You laugh like nothing matters...
Twisted words of a lullaby
A midnight moon to make me cry...
Your admonishment - mere monologue.
Your thoughts - humility defaced...
I need to get out, get away.
Tear from these chains that keep me...
My name is not important.
I was born merely as one more human being on this...
The American flag does not wave to say hello,
it is crying for attention, pleading for help as...

Row, row, row;

It's been said, "people come in your life for...
Painful, but well known by now...now that the wind...
Pummeling fists
Hatred in those eyes...
The sun shines behind me, I see the rays
dancing across her gracious skin, I pull out...
It seems like every time I build myself back up,
you manage to knock me down...
Dark night
with starry skies...
Frayed endings,
mark a time...
I've come to the conclusion I'm wasting
ink like I'm misusing my time...
Sorry if this sucks, just had to get everything...
I don't know why its hard for me...

But they come from the heart...

Reflected from his soul...

To try to encage yourself...
