Enemies I have a few –
When doing things
Others don’t want me to do.
Making decisions that
May never please;
Their anger directed at me
I can never appease.
Well, I received short notice
To never show my face
And my family and friends
To stay away.
My only shortcoming –
To make a decision
That did not please.
And I’m sorry for you.
everything was set up
all we had to do was sign
signature became a decision
skies darkened by clouded vision
under duress I walked away
to regret in coming days
all we had to do was sign
opportunity lost
My inner passions
Yell their desires at me –
Demand to be fed
Take me in your arms
And kiss away my tears
Lie beside me
And wash away my fears
Love me gently
And I will love you too
My heart is
Sliced into shreds
By a butcher’s knife
My tears drip to the floor
And mix with the blood of my
Bleeding heart
Insecurity rises in my chest
Long dark abyss
Wanting to cling
To an anchor post
But all I have
Is a deep dank well
My thoughts wander
Not knowing where to rest
No closure is found
No thank you is given
And all that remains
Are fragments of
The best I gave away
Take me in your arms
Wrap me in your love
Kiss my head, my face
Kiss my lips, draw me
Near so I can feel your
Body heat, I want you
is love forever?
does love consume
the whole heart
never letting go
does love hijack –
jamming hearts shut
so they are sealed
never to open again
if that is love
then i wish i would
never love i wish
my heart would always
be open to receive
to accept to heal
to rejoice to feel
to love
I’m filled with thoughts
With wants and needs
I’m filled with love and
Pride and envy
I’m filled with emotions
Strong and real
I’m filled with every
Feeling I can feel
I am filled with pleasures
Of this world
I am empty
