Barren Fields~
This place
so untouchable
Hard to explain
something that is rarely seen
Brave souls try to feel it
and die young
Toxic...yet addicting
Many walks have been taken
in this direction...
I stopped before the hell
burned me
Scars from many journey's before
glisten in the light of day, raw, subtle
reminders of.
The tears in my eyes, the gentle kisses
that taste of all things divine, the lingering
slow touch...the inhale of your earthly core.
All these things became the hell of...

Prison break
Spending most of my life seeking the approval
of others has left me empty...void of, on to many
occasions.
Head in the sand and spiritual ass in the sky left me dirty....force fed an illusion of friendship, companionship.
Delicate and broken is now my newly accepted stance in this world.
Maybe I was to raw in a well done society.
Knowing love and hate. Pain and joy. Being the Judge and the damned, . Dark and light.
Just to real for those tripping on their many faces feeding an inner frenzy. And me? I’m laying there like a lizard in the sun.
What...

Knowing love and hate. Pain and joy. Being the Judge and the damned, . Dark and light.

Love letter To fear
Far to long you have suckled from the vein of my
extreme existence.
Draining vessels of gold while leaving the decay
for the crows.
Climb on and ride the old bones that have
betrayed me...free will some say.
Fear, point blank I have to break up with you. I just don't
get off on getting off anymore.
It's the real things that turn me on...like scent,
passion, fire, water, and sky. And lips, sweet succulent lips.
Bliss fills me up with absent gold and I get high...so goddamn high.
Carry on.

Taste of time~
The car crashed
...the lights made the crackling glass look magical
The blood on my lips
...tasted of you and it was then that I knew
I’d never waste another life moment
... on you and your lies
Instead I’d forever taste the sweetness of my own divinity✨
The magic was tempting but fate jumped in and saved me.

Irony
Is it possible to move through the ache of a broken heart that has pumped sand for so many years?
Every time I feel a surge of emotion rise I choke it out from so many hateful memories.
I didn’t want to ever be this person. Jaded, angry, bitter. Sad from a place that can’t be pinpointed because it moves swiftly through me hiding in each of my vulnerable spaces.
I can’t hate the man any more than I hate myself. It took two but I so wish I could have made out that price tag.
I teach people every day to love themselves. Ironic isn’t it?
In...

Sense of Being
Shamelessly the moon pierced through
my skin, invading every cell
Stunned, I stand there now lacking in
oxygen from the force penetrating so deep
Did I not heed the advice of the wise ones?
Traveling lately with muted footsteps have
left me with a heavy heart
Seeking solace in the moon…and the moon
pierced me
I was an unwilling bystander
Lessons ensue~

Clearance Shelf~
Your love was cheap~
Like the prize in a Cracker Jack box
highly anticipated but once opened
disappointment ensued.
Massive excuses and the blame game
are the only soul enhancers that enlighten
your facade which cause double vision.
Drifting over and over again into your abyss
left me exhausted for some time like you fed
off of my shine, oh bottom feeder.
Stand inside those many thoughts, many worlds,
lie, cheat and blame and I will be so clear of any
of the feces you flung my way.

Time-
For many, this is the time called Halloween, but it is increasingly being remembered by those with Celtic ancestry as Samhain. It means “summer’s end”, and is the time when the veil between the worlds is at it’s thinnest, a time to remember and call to our ancestors. To ask for their guidance and wisdom. It is a time for ceremony and ritual, and a great time for divination. Peace and blessings to you all 🧙🏻♂️

I am~
I am no ones dirty secret
I’ve been birthed by the same God, Goddess as you.
Standing side by side in the face of scrutiny like so many of our ancestors before us.
I am worthy of admiration and praise for rising from the ashes.
There is no place in my life for people who can’t see that my worth is just as valuable as their own.
I am all things...a survivor of the dark night of the soul and of being the eternal light.
If you can’t recognize me here in this space...be gone.
I am no ones dirty little secret.

When the Voice has Fallen asleep~
There is this memory of you and I; a time when all we did was graced. All that was said was gold and all we felt was the blood of the earth and the sky pumping through our veins
:Simply meant to be
Now the lines are blurred like the ripples in the water. I can't see clearly anymore I can't see the defined lines. I don't know the rules and I'm tired. I want to know your love and I wish that you could want it as much as I do
But the blood of the earth ran dry and the sky is covered in grey.
:Simple rantings of the forlorn

Time Eternal~
There is a constant that runs through my soul
better and clearer than any other dream.
The river; she harbors my wants and desires within
her constant ever-changing being.
Release of all the unhealthy ties that have kept me
bound wash away into the depths, twist and turns
setting me free.
All freedom has a cost. I have paid the price like so many.
Now here on rivers edge in the light of the sun I erase the debt
and feel the hope, joy and love like never before.
Here in this place, I don't beg, borrow or fear. Here in...
better and clearer than any other dream.
The river; she harbors my wants and desires within
her constant ever-changing being.

bound wash away into the depths, twist and turns
