I’m worried Because Your eyes tell a story Of space Uninterest You look through me If at me at all And sometimes I’ll find you off in the distance The only emotion you commit to Is lying down On your own sword But even then You tell me again and again You’re only Responding to … Continue reading This is the Middle – October 6, 2021
Hills and Valleys – October 1, 2021
I lost the deep And traveled too close to the surface I guess To suck in the sweet air It seemed beautiful and eloquent And I tried so hard to stay…

Simple doesn’t fill me up Bloated with life’s lessons Hurtling toward anything I am who I say I am Does that bother you
Talking to you…10/3/21
PARTS AND PIECES I Drove to You You were the only one That knew me then And I was searching somewhere For the strength to leave Heading in your direction They Should have cancelled each other out. ~~~ A box of trinkets Sat alone in the backseat Mirroring my reality I could feel them pulsating … Continue reading Talking to you…10/3/21

It’s all the little things suspended On droplets of mist Surrounding my Spinning mind
Suspended – October 1, 2021
I woke up still feeling the touch That visited in my dreams Delicate and flirty Intentional and every bit a surprise I shifted and Closed my eyes

Sometimes I try and lose myself
Placation – September 22, 2021
Tear me down, by my side You stood And then you left Tell me what I am supposed to think, Do It was you Who broke me And built me up Not to be me But what you want Isn’t who I am any longer And here I sit Shocked into stillness On loop Begging … Continue reading Placation – September 22, 2021
Flabbergast of Love – September 20, 2021
Sometimes It hits me in the face Hard Knocking me out Offended At all she put in And the nothing She got out What is a legacy Without a name A whisper amongst The breeze Was that my job I’ve been carrying so long I’m bloated And ready to gush Set her free I will … Continue reading Flabbergast of Love – September 20, 2021
Lusting – September 11, 2021
The moments I feel you Closer to me Than I am to myself Are the wholest I have ever been It brings me A high No drug could touch And therefore I am an addict In your midst When you love me Like you do
September 13, 2021
Blowing through my mind The keys on a piano run The warm bows That fall softly On my strings Withdrawn And wondering I can’t tell you Where this will end But the rustling That happens Swallows me whole As we beat together
The Space Around Us – September 6, 2021
You say you love me And I don’t doubt that But I think there has to be something more than love There has to be a place we exist And no one else… A plain Where we intersect
August 13, 2021
When you go I will disintegrate And all the little pieces Left of me Scattered Seem to make more sense Than the whole world
Missing – August 31, 2021
I wake up Somedays Missing her Beyond Anything That could be imagined Missing The days I learn little trinkets Of her existence Missing The delusion That keeps her perfect I will always long For someone I never knew And sometimes that is the hardest Bit of everything Missing the pride That might never have been … Continue reading Missing – August 31, 2021
Dead and Gone – August 6, 2021
Watching the tips of dead flowers Shimmy when they are told A pastel white butterfly Flittering by Putting a stamp on summer’s Sultry and dripping Days…
August 9, 2021
I am that little girl Waking up It hasn’t changed Closing my eyes It hasn’t changed Through the days So many things Creeping in And out I am that little girl Sitting and waiting Forever For You
Dreamsicle Hypocrisy – August 3, 2021
I swear I don’t Hold on To things Blinding Myself To letting Them go Never looking Over my shoulders Bounding into fields Leaving marks Picked up As I remember All I’ve lost Time and time again Things I’ve put down And smiled at Filling my belly Night after night Never enough Flying past you Always … Continue reading Dreamsicle Hypocrisy – August 3, 2021
Talking to you…The Capitol is Watching 7/28/21
This Olympics has me thinking (uh-oh). What a horribly sad, humiliating, eye opening, real, show of strength embodied by Simone Biles. Yeah, hold on, I know everyone’s talking about it, and it already seems almost old. But this, this thing she’s done is unheard of. Athletes don’t just train their a$$es off day in and … Continue reading Talking to you…The Capitol is Watching 7/28/21
Inside Out – July 28, 2021
A tear As a glimmer Sliding over my cheek Just for a second A slight moment A tickle Running at a pace To be felt The entire way
Talking to you…have I shared too much 7/27/21
My “life feelings” are just that, something you can’t touch and fleeting. They’re mine. Selfishly, I blunder them. One after another. Letting them go, when all I want to do is hold the fuck on. It might feel good for a moment…but we all know the saying…then the moment is gone.
