POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
Poet Introduction
My writings are all about real life events ... Like pieces out of my diary ... Has taken me some courage to share but happy I am :)
Freedom
Free....Dom
When will She recognise the freedom that overtakes ones heart
To feel as she is walking on air and her life gets a restart...
I see the smiles on freedoms lips
She takes her time before she admits
She points at her target
her heart her weapon..... She aims and shoots she is lethal deception
Freedom plays on her mind.... The kind of freedom that comes with time....
She sleeps heavy to forget her days for freedom enters her dreams this way.... She draws wings over and over again , big ones and small ones all different colours and shades.......

She's screaming out
Her silence is alarming
The symptoms of self harming
I see the mark
I see the scar
She's crying out
But there's no one around
She's leaving evidence for you to pick up on
The gothic look
It's a cover up
She's wearing black again
It's a hot summers day
She's in long sleeves
Doesn't that give something away
She's hiding inside herself
Punishing her body
The scars are the markings
Please help her somebody
She sits quietly
At the back of the bus
The kids around her all running amok ...

What is it you seek
Prime yourself
Feed on the weak
Drain their blood
Their empathy
Take a chunk
From their reality
Create a lump
Of insecurity
Submit your power
Putridly
Can't let them be
Spread your darkness
So they can't see
You can try
But it ends here with me
I see them stumble
Drunk with dread
From all the badness
You put in their head
Swallowed your glass
To slit their throat
Your hand over their mouth
And watched them choke
Made...

Imagine a friend
Curiosity, I'm interested now
You caught my attention
I'm still not sure how
Maybe with diversions
Or magic techniques
But my ears are open
As you speak
My eyes follow where you go
It's like enhanced entertainment
In a one person show
Your ways have the ability
To let one flow .... Sit up and listen
Grow ....
There's no indecision
Your clearly on a mission
And there's just something I gotta no ?
How to you keep the spirit there
How do you stay in tact
For watching you is disturbingly...

Attack of the heart x
There's this man
He's skin leathery
His hair grey
Always has a smile
And joke of the day
He has worked hard all his life
Sweating in the Australian heat
No riches were earned
Just enough to make ends meet
Food on the table
Shoes on his kids feet
There's this woman
She's not as toned as she once was
Her skin droopy
It's been a rough trot
Her legs show blue veins
Each one represent a different pressure
She slaved in the home
all her life
For the family she treasures
Some...

You and your understudies
Blistered
From the burns
Twisted
From the turns
My dear you have a lot to learn
I watch you wash through friendships like water
And please excuse me
For my
Confused
state
I Worked to hard
And earned love
To be this way
And as I see you spread your poison
And break people along the way
I treasure my trueness
My best values at play
My enemies
Start to integrate
Killing my softness
Want to see me seething with hate
But they are just sideline viewers
I hold my own...

That .... Girl
She's got killer heels
They compliment her legs
Her lips are sealed
With violent red
Her skin tanned
She is drop dead
.....
Your neck almost snapped
As you turned your head
I no I'm not like her
But I'd like to see if she would be
I mean ....
I wonder if she's as beautiful inside
Like me
For the beauty that she's showing
Doesn't show her mind
Heads are turning
She must get it all the time
Your pretending like you didn't see
But honey I even looked
At her swelling beauty ...

Blank canvas
A blank canvas
For me to do with what I please
I begin my design
Relatively with ease
And half way through
I stop mid stroke
For there's nothing in front of me
No lines
no squiggles
Not even a mark
Do I restart ?
It's more empty than before I started
I look down to the supplies
And wonder
Did I discard them ?
And then I remember
I'm not even an artist
So I leave the canvas
Standing propped on it's easel
Grab a fresh page
And words start to tease me
I write...

Two hearts collide
When Romeo met Juliet did his heart flutter inside
When Juliet met Romeo did she think for this man I will give my life
What happens when two hearts collide....
Did she faulter every time her head layed upon his chest
Did he breath in the smell of her skin
And watch the rise and fall of her breast .......
Together did they stumble on one another's words,
Together did they look to the other
For things to heal their world...
When Romeo looked at Juliet was he blown away by her smile
When Juliet looked at Romeo was it worth all her while.....
If it...

Conversation
CONVERSATION
I had this conversation
It was deep and revealing
I spoke with rawness
Said exactly what I was feeling
Naked, stripped to bone
Revealing things
I bet you didn't no
I spoke loud
I spoke fluently
So there was no confusion
I spoke clearly
I chose my words meticulously
I communicated my soul
Whole and fully
Said things I've imagined saying
But had never had the courage
But now it's summoned
And it's flowing like a rapid fever
The feelings bubbling
Enough...

Relentless ......
The cluster
How the energy is weaved
Stressful the encounter
And how first looks are perceived
Dignity crumbled
Bone splitting thrust
And now she has no one
That she can trust
Cold like ice
She was discarded
Easily tossed
her feelings not regarded
Stomped on her chest
A bruised swelling mess
And walked away
With out a look back
How can people be so visceral
She did nothing to deserve that
Biting and spitting her out
Ginormous chunks
And left...

Be..... For my children x
BE ......
Be beautiful
Just as you are
Love whole
Love pure
Your insecurities
Are vanishing blemishes
Don't give up
And give into them
Be stunning
Be Devine
Just as you are
Be truthful
Be kind
It has got you this far
Be diligent
Be ruthless
In all you endeavour
And have an umbrella
For all that you weather
Be humility
In all your surrounds
And once in a while
Stop to look around
Be smiling
Your humour
Share it with all
Stand up...
