Overpowered 

You haunted every nightmare

That terrorized my darkest night 

I screamed myself awake 

Blinded by the sudden light 

Heart pulsing to escape 

I wiped away my tears

I dare not close my eyes again

Overpowered by my fears 

Seize my Passion

When I think of him

My heart skips a beat

When he looks my way

My face flushes with heat 

When he speaks to me 

I wonder what to say 

In everything I do

I give myself away 

I have a new crush

Divine masterpiece 

I am not dead yet –

Passion, to be seized 

Steamed Coffee

Rainy days

And dreamy morns

Books on tap 

And smiles and yawns 

Nothing beats 

A lazy dawn –

Steamed coffee

While water falls 

 

Something to Share

Owning my life 

My feelings 

My actions 

Brings me to acceptance 

Of a worthy self 

A worthy heart 

A worthy smile 

And contentment 

Happiness and

Kindness

To share

When all else fails


Today I thought about you for half a second

Then I ate a choc-chip cookie

And felt much better 

My Mind


My mind billows 

In every direction

Flying into space

And sinking into oceans 

In depths of sadness

And waves of emotions

My mind drags me high 

And sinks me low 

It attacks with violence

And loves with passion 

It drives me crazy 

And keeps me sane 

My mind is my enemy

And also my friend 

My only company 

Surrounded by solitude 

My mind is a kite

Flying in the sky 

And an anchor 

Keeping me

Alive

Healing Love


There is love

Flowing in the world

Reaching out from hearts

Healing as it goes

From yours to mine

Tender love has reached

A soothing balm

On my salted wound

My Love


My love stands true
My love stands strong
My love is an anchor
To help you along

I’ll carry your burdens
I’ll reach for your hand
I’ll travel beside you
Into new lands
