POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
The Clock
As I think about the future
my eyes deepen in the clock
for with each tick I witness
The death I feared would knock..
When I slide between the hands of time
a fragment breaks the notch
the pieces start to tremble
breaking down the clock..
As I see the door slide open
the cuckoo hids beneath
a chime that I'm familiar
the one that I must free..
Oh how long I've waited
to see what's deep inside
this pain that I have lived with
is the broken piece I hide..
As I look among the wreckage...
my eyes deepen in the clock
for with each tick I witness
The death I feared would knock..
When I slide between the hands of time
a fragment breaks the notch
the pieces start to tremble
breaking down the clock..
As I see the door slide open
the cuckoo hids beneath
a chime that I'm familiar
the one that I must free..
Oh how long I've waited
to see what's deep inside
this pain that I have lived with
is the broken piece I hide..
As I look among the wreckage...

Safe Space
Let's escape to the place
that's deep in her heart
with millions of miles
to places embarked.
There is a promise
when we visit this space
No harm can be done
for it's a pure place.
I started building this place
when I was still young
the colors have changed
and the trees have all sprung.
I can go on adventures
and visit all that I've seen
for it is a place
much more than I dreamed.
If my focus is good
my connection is deep
I can feel the mist settle
from the waterfall's peak....

Message too You
I feel like
you're running through my mind
so much now
all of the time..
The things
I think about
when I think about you
it gives me the giggles
and hot flashes too..
All the excitement
and the nervousness I feel
reminds how much
this passion is real
So much
all at one time
I pray that it doesn't
make me go blind.

Dark
As I stand behind this gate,
it's a prison I might see,
but only when I closed my eyes,
I saw that it was free.
I walk around in darkness,
afraid of every light,
for whatever would I get,
if I never lived in fright?
Consumed by all the heat,
that permeates the ground,
Am I bound by hell,
or Heaven have I found?
I see now in the darkness,
when I look from deep within,
it's there I find the chains,
that kept me tangled in.
Sometimes I want the madness,
for then I feel alive,
but...

Prayers
Lord,
I asked you for the peace
that you placed inside my heart.
I know that when I live in you,
I won't be torn apart.
Anxious are my nerves
when I listen with my pain.
Being stuck inside my hell
will never bring me gain.
I will not get to live in faith
if I let that sickness grow.
Please protect my mind
and do not let me go.
I want to stay in you
with all that I may be.
Peaceful is your presence,
it's you who sets me free.

Purgatory
Demolished by the will of self,
has left my soul behind.
I get into these moments,
where fear can tell me lies.
Consumed by the distraction,
I set up my demise.
Illusions from the feelings,
that live inside my mind.
Saturate the picture,
as tears make me go blind.
I'm stuck inside a force field,
with a toe tag on my foot.
Screaming out for help,
but no one stops to look.
The dreams I had all perish,
from the body I abused.
Broken down and tattered,
from all that I amused.

Angel
God has sent me an angel
To remind me to pray.
The power of His word
All day long, I will stay.
To praise Him, hallelujah,
Is the highest accord.
For in the presence of His grace,
I am always adored.
When I am weak,
Or when I am strong,
I can be in His presence
All the day long.
I know in His faith,
He will give me the strength
To carry His grace
In all that I think.
I'm reminded that this world
Shall give me no fear,
For when I am connected to Him,
All will be clear.

Time
I THOUGHT WE HAD TOMORROW
LIKE MANY TIMES BEFORE
THIS TIME IS SO MUCH DIFFERENT
WITH PAIN I CAN'T IGNORE..
WE'VE GROWN THROUGH MANY MOMENTS
TRIALS AND SOME TEARS
WE ALMOST MADE IT TO A TIME
WE WOULD CELEBRATE ONE YEAR..
AS I LOOK TO THE REBUILDING
OF A LIFE THAT CHANGED THAT DAY
I SEE A RAINBOW IN THE SKY
AS MY TEARS WERE SWEPT AWAY..
I AM A DIFFERENT PERSON
THAN I WAS BEFORE WE MET
FOR NOW I KNOW JUST WHERE I STAND
IN A LIFE WITH NO REGRET..
I HAVE OVERCOME SOME OBSTACLES

Messages in the Bottles
I wrote you down on paper
then I sealed it with a kiss..
placed inside the bottle
you were always missed..
Anger from my actions
kept you out to sea..
The hole I have inside my heart
is where you'll always be..
One-day I found your bottle
as you spoke the words I've missed..
To hear the sounds of your voice
is what I've always wished..
Confusion by delusion
as you share the pain I've caused..
If only I had changed my path
those tears I could have paused..
Abandoned by a mother ...

The King
As I prepair for your arrival
My heart begins to race
For I know it won't be long
Until I see your face..
With each minute I'm reminded
That soon you'll touch my skin
As i try to focus on my makeup
I hear your text again..
Driving to your location
I feel you call me from with in
My mind can't help but wonder
If tonight will never end..
When I see your body language
I know I'm done up right
With a drip inside my panties
My body you excite..
As we talk about our evening
Then...

Broken
I found myself in sorrow
From a lifetime
I once had
The part that broke inside of me
Hurt me really bad..
Comfort from the solitude
Bound with ring in hand
The words you spoke
we're diamonds
fitted on this band..
I have forgiven many actions
But this one I will not
For with that ring
you gave a promise
Irreplaceable
I guess not..
A cannon shot from armor
No time could I prepair
For with the words
Now out your mouth
No long ill be there..
Confused by your...

Freedom
I ask myself the question
where to go from here
The answer quickly comes
I've fuled my love with fear..
As I laid my eyes upon you
my heart sunk to the floor
for I knew
In that very moment
I could never want you more..
As we talk about our feelings
lighter we become
woke into reality
no longer are we numb..
The more that I'm around you
My body starts to cave
For it has been a lifetime
to find it's you I crave..
As my body starts to flutter
The song plays in...
where to go from here

my heart sunk to the floor
