Transitions
Open skies beckon in something broader,
Something greater.
The renewal of the mind.
The healing of the soul.
The graceful transition of a woman scarred,,
To the beauty of a woman made whole.
Something greater.
The renewal of the mind.
The healing of the soul.
The graceful transition of a woman scarred,,
To the beauty of a woman made whole.

True Love
You hold my heart in the palm of your hand.
Gently remolding and filling in the cracks.
Kissing the broken pieces one by one
As they fall back into place.
Loving me endlessly;
Graciously.
I believe God created you just for me.
To revive me.
Healing me from the inside out.
You are the definition of true love
I can no longer do without.
Gently remolding and filling in the cracks.
Kissing the broken pieces one by one
As they fall back into place.
Loving me endlessly;
Graciously.
I believe God created you just for me.
To revive me.
Healing me from the inside out.
You are the definition of true love
I can no longer do without.

EROTIC POEM

As We Lay
Love.
Lust.
Fuel my desire.
Her divine aroma
Sets my senses on fire.
Taking me higher.
Don’t want to come down.
On a mission to explore her.
Ecstasy bound.
Lips so soft and sweet
As they become one with mine.
So wet and luscious.
Inhibitions left behind.
My tongue searches
For her delectable essence.
Probing deeper and deeper.
I just might keep her
Entangled in the web of my arms.
Holding her captive,
But she don’t want to be free.
Together blissfully.
As we lay.
Lust.
Fuel my desire.
Her divine aroma
Sets my senses on fire.
Taking me higher.
Don’t want to come down.
On a mission to explore her.
Ecstasy bound.
Lips so soft and sweet
As they become one with mine.
So wet and luscious.
Inhibitions left behind.
My tongue searches
For her delectable essence.
Probing deeper and deeper.
I just might keep her
Entangled in the web of my arms.
Holding her captive,
But she don’t want to be free.
Together blissfully.
As we lay.

Well-Known Secrets
We seem picture perfect.
One might look at us and think,
“Goals.”
But in reality,
We are two tortured souls
Striving in the ruins.
Trying to rebuild a foundation
On broken promises
And shattered trust.
Treading through the landfill
Searching for love lost.
Thinking we must
Stay together,
But at what cost?

MISCELLANEOUS POEM

Nature's Lullaby
Wet fingertips
Tapping lightly on the glass.
A smooth, rhythmic sound
Fills the room;
Gently pulling at my eyelids.
I don't fight it
As the beautiful melody cradles me;
Rocking me to sleep.
Tapping lightly on the glass.
A smooth, rhythmic sound
Fills the room;
Gently pulling at my eyelids.
I don't fight it
As the beautiful melody cradles me;
Rocking me to sleep.

Unedited and Raw
You take me as I am.
Loving unconditionally.
Finding beauty in my flaws.
There’s no pretending;
Just appreciating the realness;
The closeness.
I’ve never experienced a love like this.

Everything
Your name is tattooed on my heart.
Memories of you etched in my mind.
Your touch branded on my skin.
True love imprinted in my spirit.
Nothing or no one compares.
You are everything.
Memories of you etched in my mind.
Your touch branded on my skin.
True love imprinted in my spirit.
Nothing or no one compares.
You are everything.

In the Golden Night
Beautiful,
Radiating aura
Penetrating my being with light.
Uplifting,
Eternally soaring
High into the heavens we take flight.
Evermore,
Divinely connected
Destiny reached in the golden night.

OBSERVATIONAL POEM

Time for Healing
Why do we cover up our true selves?
Hiding behind smiles
When we’re crying inside.
Saying we’re okay
When we’re beside ourselves with sadness.
Putting Band-Aids over weeping wounds.
Deciding we’d rather die,
Leaving the earth too soon.
Believing that no one cares.
Totally unaware
That we’re not alone.
That better days are coming.
We can begin to heal,
But we must peel back the masks.
Break down the walls.
Stop cowering and stand tall.
Let love penetrate;
Dissolving all the anger and hate.
We...
Hiding behind smiles
When we’re crying inside.
Saying we’re okay
When we’re beside ourselves with sadness.
Putting Band-Aids over weeping wounds.
Deciding we’d rather die,
Leaving the earth too soon.
Believing that no one cares.
Totally unaware
That we’re not alone.
That better days are coming.
We can begin to heal,
But we must peel back the masks.
Break down the walls.
Stop cowering and stand tall.

Dissolving all the anger and hate.

I Am
What you think of me
Is a matter of opinion,
Not fact,
But I value it so much.
Not knowing who I am.
You’re the truth.
So, I believe that.
I’ve let your words
Corrupt my thoughts.
Convinced I’m worthless.
One dimensional.
Old and weak.
I’m dying inside,
But my heart can’t speak.
I choose to love
Myself more.
Lift myself higher.
Strip myself of your judgment.
Forging my own path.
Even though it’s hard,
I can.
Even though you say I’m not,
I am.
Is a matter of opinion,
Not fact,
But I value it so much.
Not knowing who I am.
You’re the truth.
So, I believe that.
I’ve let your words
Corrupt my thoughts.
Convinced I’m worthless.
One dimensional.
Old and weak.
I’m dying inside,
But my heart can’t speak.
I choose to love
Myself more.
Lift myself higher.
Strip myself of your judgment.
Forging my own path.
Even though it’s hard,
I can.
Even though you say I’m not,
I am.

Hidden Truth
The way you lie
Is so remarkable.
I almost believe you,
Until I look into your eyes.
Deception flourishing.
Brittle grass beneath my feet.
Stumbling through the weeds
To find the truth,
But it was never there.
Is so remarkable.
I almost believe you,
Until I look into your eyes.
Deception flourishing.
Brittle grass beneath my feet.
Stumbling through the weeds
To find the truth,
But it was never there.

In My Dreams
Meet me in my dreams, my love.
So I can hold you close.
Covering you with sweet kisses.
It’s you my heart misses.
I want to bask in your presence.
Savoring your existence.
Meet me in my dreams, my love.
So I can look upon your face.
Gazing deep into your eyes.
Our love multiplies.
Into the heavens we rise.
Unbreakable soul ties.
Meet me in my dreams, my love.
So we can intertwine.
Tangled in a web of bliss.
Our bodies cease to resist.
Sealed with a heated kiss.
An intoxicating fix.
Meet...
