POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
Poet Introduction
Fantasy. Is my secret addiction its my poetic high. When i desire something/someone or when i want to escape forget my surroundings, my age, who i am. Poetry is my escape goat..
Sick
I'm sick of smiling faces
and warm hello's
why cant I just drown in my own sorrow
I cant stand this ache left behind
from feeling so alone
the covers may keep me warm at night
but i find no comfort in simple delights
because the truth always creeps upon me
when I am at my best
and reminds me I don't deserve to smile
*Needs work sometimes What I want to say is just as hard to write as it is to say.*

Mistress
I care for another
you have another
yet here we lay wrapped
in each others selfish needs
not asking
only taking
whatever we please
The gifts you have given me twist around my neck
with each position we try
choking me
reminding me this is not right
the scrape of your teeth against my skin
make me loose track of my thoughts
I can only focus on your touch
the sound of our flesh meeting
I want to run my hands down your back
and look at your face as you love me
but like the whore that I am
I convince myself its...

Memories come to me
As I awake from my slumber
Memories cascade through my mind
making my head pound
and tears threaten to escape
from the corners of my eyes
I feel empty
raw
the drugs wore off
now I'm left to face reality
where the monsters in my head
never stay a distance away
where the shadows on the wall
make me close my eyes
and force myself to pretend
Im not alone
its still last night
im still in someones arms
[font=Georgia]im still floating
towards that iridescent light
that burst behind my eyelids
turning my body...

Care free
So this is what its like to play with fire
I'm dancing so close to the flames i see ripples
of waves against my skin
heating the hairs on my belly,legs,and arms
my hair lays down my back
and my feet are bared
I am women
I am beast
I am wild
I am ....me

As I held her
I wonder if she knew
as I held her
that I wanted her
I wonder if she knew
as i brushed her hair from her face
that i yearned to kiss her peachy skin
I wonder if she knew
that I as I trailed my finger tips
down her arms
I was admiring the goosebumps that rose
to my gentle exploration
I wonder if she knew
Or even if she heard
that I'm dying to be apart
of anything and everything
that involves loving her....

The Weekend
I still have the bruises
the scratches
on my hips
my thighs
left behind from last weekends
heady adventures
smiling to myself
I trace patterns around
the fading marks
and laugh out loud
until water leaks from my eyes
and I can no longer sit up
closing my eyes
I re live that night
the smell of sweat and alcohol
drift around me
i can still feel your hands on me
the way your heavy member
rubbed against my lower back
the feel of your hand finding its way
up my stomach to my breast
shaping them ...

Whip It
Heads pounding
hearts racing
chills crawl up my skin
tears leak from both eyes
as i laugh at my own stupidity
there's yelling in the background
someone moans beside me
my world has been tilted off its axle
my body floats outside of itself
and i smile
for once i have found peace
even if its temporary
my hands roam whatever surrounds
and i feel trapped
yelling at my own inner demons
suddenly i feel hot
stripping out of what little i have
left on
i let my hair loose
and laugh once again at the ...

Under the old Oak Tree
What if i told you
yesterday i didn't just sit around
thinking of what i could be
instead i took your advice
got up
grabbed my pen
and wrote down my fears
then berried them six feet deep
under the big oak tree
sprinkling the last four years of my life
into the dirt
as if they were seeds
my tears ran heavy that day
soaking the soil beneath my fingertips
if you were to look at me now
and ask why
angry scrapes lay on both my knees
i would smile
and say i finally climbed that
tree
and guess what daddy ...

In your arms i died
I lost myself tonight
in your arms
i died
for some reason everything felt right
the rhythm of your breathing
and the smell of your cologne
yet i saw no reflection of me in your eyes
so as i lay down
by your side
i keep trying
to tell myself it still feels right
even tho i know it all but a lie
because when i open my eyes
ill be left with nothing
but... last night
*lame really needs work but yep*

Quiet Observer, Restless Lover
As you reach for the sheet
pulling at it in your sleep
i turn to my side
and lower my eyes
moaning in frustration because
the dark plays games with my eyes
blinking i lay still and focus on your figure
pale skin in the moonlight
biting my lip i sigh
hearing the deep shallow breaths you take
lets me know your still dreaming
hopefully about me
i solemnly think
feeling hot and a little bit edgy
i turn the opposite direction
and try to find release
if only my name would pass
from your lips
i could direct your...

Its not ok
keep walking..
and stop chewing on your lip
do you really think your ok
as my insecurities eat on my insides
and yell through the pounding of my head
I pace back and forth
watching the sweat pour off my body
clenching and un-clenching my hands
I count trying to release the frustration
bubbling inside me
rubbing my belly to soothe the cramps
that have taken hold of me
I crouch on the floor
getting ready for round two
but know matter how much I jog
run, leap
I'm never good enough to find that simple
release ...

Reflections of the Past
My sword swings quick above my head
trails of blood lay against both of my cheeks
I listen to the sound of my heartbeat
as I sway from one foot to another
I preform a dance for my pleading victim
humming softly I lick the sweat from my upper lip
and close my eyes
while telling myself "you can do this your ready"
I hear the slide of my blade cut against cold glass
forcing me to push harder
my screams of agony echo around me
as the metal pushes through layers of protection
hearing the gentle snap
I finally open my eyes ...
