Poet Introduction
I once had so much angst when I started here. I have grown in many ways, my writing has changed, I write whatever comes to me. I'm much happier in life than I once was. I'm happy with who I am and what I do now.

Background
My words became fewer as the days stretch along.
Now just observing from afar.
Within reach, but just barely.
Light in these tired eyes faltering.
This scarred heart no longer crying, the beat soft near silent
Fading to the black, my spirit shivering
Left frozen.
There's a new peace found
Even with these masks now broken.
Slipped into the background forgotten.
Into the calm of the night,
Finally blurred from all line of sight.
Now just observing from afar.
Within reach, but just barely.
Light in these tired eyes faltering.
This scarred heart no longer crying, the beat soft near silent
Fading to the black, my spirit shivering
Left frozen.
There's a new peace found
Even with these masks now broken.
Slipped into the background forgotten.
Into the calm of the night,
Finally blurred from all line of sight.

Escape
For three years you
Held me under your thumb
For three years I have never been so numb.
And because of you, I lost who I was.
I became just a shell, empty on the inside.
You cut off my ties, while feeding me new lies, with each severed thread. What's worse is that I believed you, and let you fill me with dread.
Everything was going your way, how
Happy you must've felt.
If I dared defy you, that smile vanished, and we fought.
Fought until I cried, and your smile returned, knowing you won.
Some days, you wanted to fight just to remind me...
Held me under your thumb
For three years I have never been so numb.
And because of you, I lost who I was.
I became just a shell, empty on the inside.
You cut off my ties, while feeding me new lies, with each severed thread. What's worse is that I believed you, and let you fill me with dread.
Everything was going your way, how
Happy you must've felt.
If I dared defy you, that smile vanished, and we fought.
Fought until I cried, and your smile returned, knowing you won.
Some days, you wanted to fight just to remind me...

Heart Beat Melody
Quietly, I feel so at ease.
It's a spell, and this feels like a dream.
I've swallowed all defeat, and I watch the stars fly across the night sky,
I listen to your heart beat sing
The sun rises over the dark, warming everything around.
I've swallowed all defeat, I hear you whisper my name,
and I can't let go of this feeling.
We lay beneath the trees, I feel warm even on stone cold ground
Sunlight is streaming down; pushed it's way through the clouds.
Hands twined, smiling finally, I know you're mine.
I swallowed all defeat, and I hear...
It's a spell, and this feels like a dream.
I've swallowed all defeat, and I watch the stars fly across the night sky,
I listen to your heart beat sing
The sun rises over the dark, warming everything around.
I've swallowed all defeat, I hear you whisper my name,
and I can't let go of this feeling.
We lay beneath the trees, I feel warm even on stone cold ground
Sunlight is streaming down; pushed it's way through the clouds.
Hands twined, smiling finally, I know you're mine.
I swallowed all defeat, and I hear...

No Rest
It's almost a chore to get an eyefull of sleep.
Tossing and turning
Staring at the shadows waltzing with moonlight across the ceiling.
Thoughts crashing violently in my mind
like ocean waves to the shore
Wondering, over thinking, questioning.
Turning and tossing
Tired eyes, late hours, but not a wink of sleep comes.
Counting the stars till the daylight washes the darkness away
I'm so exhausted and desperately reaching out to it, but it dances just beyond my finger tips.
Ticking of the clock plays the same beat,
It never changes, but...
Tossing and turning
Staring at the shadows waltzing with moonlight across the ceiling.

Poetry
Fill the blank page with the breathing of your heart,
and watch the magic that occurs.
Even if you find no inspiration at all, a scribble is all that's needed.
Feel, and let it all unfold, don't mask the things you really think.
Words unspoken laid to rest within,
For the passion poured on to the page is
making a mark in ink,
and each is a masterpiece crafted carefully by your hand
and watch the magic that occurs.
Even if you find no inspiration at all, a scribble is all that's needed.
Feel, and let it all unfold, don't mask the things you really think.
Words unspoken laid to rest within,

making a mark in ink,
and each is a masterpiece crafted carefully by your hand

It's Been Forever
It's been forever,
But I'm back.
Not who I once was, I'm finally better.
It's been forever, since a blade kissed my skin.
It's been forever, but I've finally learned;
To love my life.
I've grown to be strong, and I will not fall again.
The scars I carry may mark my skin, but no longer burden my soul.
I have learned to smile through the rain, and enjoy each beat of my heart.
It's been forever, but I've learned to love.
And it's been forever, since this smile has meant something true.
I'm still a dark twisted soul. That's who I am.
But in pain,...
But I'm back.
Not who I once was, I'm finally better.
It's been forever, since a blade kissed my skin.
It's been forever, but I've finally learned;
To love my life.
I've grown to be strong, and I will not fall again.
The scars I carry may mark my skin, but no longer burden my soul.
I have learned to smile through the rain, and enjoy each beat of my heart.
It's been forever, but I've learned to love.
And it's been forever, since this smile has meant something true.
I'm still a dark twisted soul. That's who I am.
But in pain,...

Questioning
Although I question many things,
Things I shouldn't and things I have reason to worry about.
I don't know what will go on from here.
I'll stay along for the ride I guess.
That's all I can do.
Just look forward to the future,
And look away from the past
Things I shouldn't and things I have reason to worry about.
I don't know what will go on from here.
I'll stay along for the ride I guess.
That's all I can do.
Just look forward to the future,

Every Day
Every day we grow older. Wiser.
But we're always just as confused as when we
Started out. We're still just as curious.
Curious about the little things in life,
And what life does..
We know a small amount about it.
It slowly kills us..
Like what water does to stone, life does to us.
Eating away at our souls at different paces...
Every day we grow wiser. But we're still just as confused.
But we're always just as confused as when we
Started out. We're still just as curious.
Curious about the little things in life,
And what life does..
We know a small amount about it.
It slowly kills us..
Like what water does to stone, life does to us.
Eating away at our souls at different paces...
Every day we grow wiser. But we're still just as confused.

Crushed
I'm... I'm not even sure what to do at this point..
You somehow got into my head, and
Made your way into my heart.
It was so unexpected,
Yet it was still so like you.
I got shy around you, I got shakey, quiet, and
Was afraid you'd hear the pounding of my heart every
Time you got near.
Now, I don't really know what to do.
It's one of those heart breaking songs.
I know you're falling for another.
And I fake a smile and tell you to go for it.
I blink away the tears, I try to stop the pain
By digging my nails into my palms..
I...

Simple
All I can say is I'm simple,
I love watching the puddles gather rain,
I love listening to the thunder while
Thinking about all of the little things in life.
Everything, the good and bad, sort of fall into place.
All I can say is that I'm simple.
I love to watch the rain,
It soothes a restless mind,
That's as violent as a stormy sea.

Craving
My mind is on fire,
I long, I ache to feel the tender touch of the blade.
To feel the slow tearing sting that draws bloody
Maps across my skin that lead no where once again
Claws at my heart.
The craving to see the blood rise from a fresh wound
Lingers in my soul.
But even with the struggling, the suffering,
I find strength in myself to look the other way.
The illness of craving is healed for another night.
All I had to do was fool myself into
Thinking that I'm fine.
I long, I ache to feel the tender touch of the blade.
To feel the slow tearing sting that draws bloody
Maps across my skin that lead no where once again
Claws at my heart.
The craving to see the blood rise from a fresh wound
Lingers in my soul.
But even with the struggling, the suffering,
I find strength in myself to look the other way.
The illness of craving is healed for another night.
All I had to do was fool myself into

My Uncanny Addiction
I'd rather boil in my anger,
Or freeze in my pain,
Than spill out my mind,
And waste your time.
I can turn to different things,
To help ease the storm I refer to as my mind.
Yes, I do trust you, enough to tell you.
But when I hurt, I'd rather you not know.
Worrying will get you no where.
My depression is like a fur coat.
So many dead things, but it keeps me warm.
It keeps me safe from everyone but myself.
One thing I strangely missed, was my lonely suffering.
It has always been my uncanny addiction.
Or freeze in my pain,
Than spill out my mind,
And waste your time.
I can turn to different things,
To help ease the storm I refer to as my mind.
Yes, I do trust you, enough to tell you.
But when I hurt, I'd rather you not know.
Worrying will get you no where.
My depression is like a fur coat.
So many dead things, but it keeps me warm.
It keeps me safe from everyone but myself.
One thing I strangely missed, was my lonely suffering.
It has always been my uncanny addiction.
