See You Later….
I loved him
More than words could express
I loved him
Deeper than the Pacific Ocean
I loved him
Where logic and reason made no sense
He was that which I never had
Never allowed myself to have
Never allowed myself to feel
But basked in it all once I did
He got past walls
Without even trying
Mask dropped off in his presence
The well within me would open up
And out pours all I kept hidden
He Tap danced with my heart
& the music we made was beautiful
He was that which soothed my spirit ...

His Favorite Instrument
He played me like his favorite instrument
He enjoyed plucking my strings
Just to hear me sing
He loved my melodies
And the harmonious music I made
He marveled at the craftsmanship
And the way I was made
The melodious sounds I would make
He confessed I soothed his soul
And would often trap him
In a fictitious world
That was conjured up in his head
But, he never truly wanted to keep me
Or take me everywhere he went
I was just his favorite instrument
That when he wanted to hear the wonderful music
He would pick up...

When Reality Meets Expectations
He said wait on him
And honestly I thought I was
But could it be
Just maybe
I was only waiting on the mirage
I thought was him
This idealized version of him
That I created in my head
Was it truly ever really him that I waited on
Or was it the dream I painted with him in it
Was it the man in rare form
Or was it something I saw in him
That represented all I thought I wanted
What if
Just what if
He was never really real
And everything I thought I wanted
Was that
Just a dream
A mirage
And it...
And honestly I thought I was
But could it be
Just maybe
I was only waiting on the mirage
I thought was him
This idealized version of him
That I created in my head
Was it truly ever really him that I waited on
Or was it the dream I painted with him in it
Was it the man in rare form
Or was it something I saw in him
That represented all I thought I wanted
What if
Just what if
He was never really real
And everything I thought I wanted
Was that
Just a dream
A mirage

In My Daughters Eyes
In my daughters eyes I see everything pure
In my daughters eyes I see hope
In my daughters eyes I see love
In my daughters eyes I see me
If I could shield you from the cruelties of this world
To keep you innocent and pure
You know for you I would
And with everything in me I will protect you
But, there will come a day when you will have to walk your own walk
And learn from your own mistakes
But, I will give you all the arsenals that I have within me
To help you along the way so you can learn how to fight your own battles
With me being in...

A Sunrise Kiss
Curled up under the covers
Slight breeze coming in
All is still
&
It’s quiet around me
Just my own thoughts running rampant in my head
Rolling over
Eyes still closed shut
Don’t really want to get up
Want to sleep on and on forever
Breathing in
Breathing out
Hair falling in front of my face
Gently sweeping it over
Putting my hand back under the covers
Then grabbing my pillow
&
Hugging it tight
Feeling calmness slowing taking over
As I paint pictures in my mind
Letting my imagination soar...
Slight breeze coming in

Putting my hand back under the covers

I Wanna Remember Love
I wanna remember love
And how it caressed my soul
Eased my mind
Made me feel light
I floated on many a could nine’s
I sang songs
That had the most beautiful melodies
I wrote poetic lines
That could reach out
And turn the coldest man sweet
They flowed from the depths of me
I wanna remember love
And all the laughter it brought
All the wisdom it taught
It wasn’t all bad
So I just wanna soak up the good times
Remember the goose bumps
That trailed up and down my spine
I wanna remember love
The hues of...
And how it caressed my soul

Inquisitive Me
Last night I overheard a conversation
One between my lover and himself
Or possibly with God
But being the inquisitive person that I am
I felt compelled to listen
So I scooted down
And pressed my ear to the door
Which was slightly ajar
And I listened
As he began
I listened to him confess how much he truly loves me
And wishes I would understand
Deep down he has always wanted what I wanted
But his life was too complicated to give me that
He talked about the hurt he has felt
And pain he has endured throughout the years...

Masked Pain
The lowering of barriers
Not comfortable acknowledging
Haven’t quite learned how to deal
The task for others to decipher
Left complicated
The truth about Masked Pain
That’s used to disguise inner pain
Is it all just pride
Hiding
Feelings of inadequacy
That leads to psychological issues
Masquerading
As real medical problems
Only to hear
There’s nothing physically wrong with you
Instead diagnosed with psychosomatic illness
Layman’s terms
Phantom Illness
Caused by Suppressed Pain
So much energy...
