Too Young To Understand
Never thought I would go through
The empty desk again
But this time baby girl
Taking your life was not an end
Beginning of the questions
I ask over and over again
What did I miss while you thought
Ending your life would make ammends?
I know what happened
And how you decided it would end
I even saw the "helpful texts"
Of your so-called friends
I saw your face in a dream
You looked at me with that smile
I still will never understand
Why you felt you needed to die
Suicide is a permanent...
The empty desk again
But this time baby girl
Taking your life was not an end
Beginning of the questions
I ask over and over again
What did I miss while you thought
Ending your life would make ammends?
I know what happened
And how you decided it would end
I even saw the "helpful texts"
Of your so-called friends
I saw your face in a dream
You looked at me with that smile
I still will never understand
Why you felt you needed to die
Suicide is a permanent...

This
Life is a crazy ride
Ups and downs
Dying and living
The mind keeps going
Hearts keep ticking
Strength in loss
Time keeps speeding
Farther from the past
Brings more healing
Closing open doors
Looking back at chance
Living now, feeling good
But always remembering the dance...
Ups and downs

The mind keeps going
Hearts keep ticking
Strength in loss
Time keeps speeding
Farther from the past
Brings more healing
Closing open doors
Looking back at chance

Mirror
Looking at the mirror
Tell me what you see
Is it a chance that slipped away?
Drawing you from me...
Destiny is an illusion
Invented to reflect the light
Have the cake and eat it too?
Make believe endings seem just right
Souls are meant to mate
Love is meant to give
You had it all along
But blindness fought to live
I lightly touched the mirror
As you leaned in to take a look
I Pressed my face against the glass
Because my memory is all you took
Always here...going nowhere
I watched you...
Tell me what you see
Is it a chance that slipped away?
Drawing you from me...
Destiny is an illusion
Invented to reflect the light
Have the cake and eat it too?
Make believe endings seem just right
Souls are meant to mate
Love is meant to give
You had it all along
But blindness fought to live
I lightly touched the mirror
As you leaned in to take a look
I Pressed my face against the glass
Because my memory is all you took
Always here...going nowhere
I watched you...

Try
Have you ever wondered
What happens after you die?
Is it different if you try to
take your life? End in suicide?
Will you know that you are gone
Life as you know it has ended?
Caught between two worlds with
the WHY and WHAT IFs suspended...
If you don't understand
How do you keep on living?
Delusional is an excuse
The truth just keeps on giving...
Reason after reason
Even you don't understand
How do we go on
When there is no reason or plan...
What happens after you die?
Is it different if you try to
take your life? End in suicide?
Will you know that you are gone
Life as you know it has ended?
Caught between two worlds with
the WHY and WHAT IFs suspended...
If you don't understand
How do you keep on living?
Delusional is an excuse
The truth just keeps on giving...
Reason after reason
Even you don't understand
How do we go on
When there is no reason or plan...

Giggle
Want one more?
Sure, call it a celebration
Getting fuzzy, slurring speech
Giggling at no expectations
Have another…
You got it
Stumbling, falling
Giggling, don’t know when to quit
Just one more?
Well, hell yeah, losing count
Spinning, tilting, whirling
Giggling, I love you, no doubt
No more drinky please
Can’t see, can’t really hear
Did I feel me fall? I don’t know…
But I can feel the fear
No more, please
I can’t control my mind
Much less my body
What’s happening this time?
Stop could not be...
Sure, call it a celebration
Getting fuzzy, slurring speech
Giggling at no expectations
Have another…
You got it
Stumbling, falling
Giggling, don’t know when to quit

Well, hell yeah, losing count
Spinning, tilting, whirling
Giggling, I love you, no doubt
No more drinky please
Can’t see, can’t really hear
Did I feel me fall? I don’t know…
But I can feel the fear
No more, please
I can’t control my mind
Much less my body
What’s happening this time?

Unfixable
I hear it in my mind
Too short, too fat
Noting's ever good enough
Stop doing this and do that
I see all the flaws
Laughing back at me
No where to hide
No means to be free
What is wrong with you?
They ask "Why feel this way"?
Nothing is wrong
I'm fine...I finally say
I go back in my shell
Curl up inside
Motivation slips away
Too tired to cry
I struggle to keep going
I know what to do
I just don't have it in me
Consumed by the blues
When I look in...
Too short, too fat
Noting's ever good enough
Stop doing this and do that
I see all the flaws
Laughing back at me
No where to hide
No means to be free
What is wrong with you?
They ask "Why feel this way"?
Nothing is wrong
I'm fine...I finally say
I go back in my shell
Curl up inside
Motivation slips away
Too tired to cry
I struggle to keep going
I know what to do
I just don't have it in me
Consumed by the blues

Uncharted Waters - Part Three - Ringtones
The vibration of my cell phone
Followed by my favorite ringtone
The caller was not unknown
Had he picked up on my overtone?
It seems as though it happened overnight. It did not. It was a time span of about three years from the time I got to work closer with him part-time until he was full-time a few doors down. Did I know that was going to happen? No. Am I glad it happened? Yes.
I was dumbfounded when I found out that he would be moving to my department full-time. No more of the phone calls about numbers and fewer emails because he was going to be on...

Uncharted Waters - Part Two - Numbers
Do you ever think about numbers?
I suppose they invade my slumber
I am left with my sense outnumbered
My dreams became all umber
Some say the number thirteen
Is so very unlucky
But for me
That number is sweet as can be
I suppose when you work with someone, there is a way to separate yourself. Keep to yourself. But when the attraction is stronger than gravity and then, throw in a sexual spark for good measure…I lost all common sense. I was already head over heels, but he did not know. Then a new directions was presented with the number...

Somehow
I close my eyes
And remember your touch
Burning within my flower
Pulsating between my thighs
The ghost of you slips in
It is just the begininng of my high
As I trace my breasts with nervous fingers
I pretend they are being caressed by you
Savoring the feel of your tongue
As my nipples become taunt
I long to see the lust in your eyes
As I whisper "do as you want"
I can feel your hands slip beneath me
As my lips find yours
The slippery wetness between my thighs
As you raise me on all four
Your tongue traces the ink...
And remember your touch
Burning within my flower
Pulsating between my thighs
The ghost of you slips in
It is just the begininng of my high
As I trace my breasts with nervous fingers
I pretend they are being caressed by you
Savoring the feel of your tongue
As my nipples become taunt
I long to see the lust in your eyes
As I whisper "do as you want"
I can feel your hands slip beneath me
As my lips find yours
The slippery wetness between my thighs
As you raise me on all four
Your tongue traces the ink...

Uncharted Waters - Part One - The Beginning
The day was just as any other
He was on my mind - yet he had not a clue
How often I thought of him
I wondered if somehow he knew
Through all those miles,
To him, I was just a voice on a phone
But the way he talked melted my heart
The seed of lust had been sewn
That is how it all began...years before he even had an inkling I was alive in desire with him on my mind, much less smitten with his charm. A frequent visitor, but not for me. Butterflies in the tummy would be tame to call the feeling I had inside - it was more like...

A girl in her swing
Not much to give
Just a piece of my heart
To use as you wish
Across these miles apart
Light summer breeze
June bugs on a string
I smile knowingly to myself
Only we know these things
Blanket of sparkles
Rise from the grass
Lightning bugs glow
As the evening slips past
The stars are unveiling
As true souls always do
Memories catch my breath
I breathe them in for you
Tree swing in the night
We both drop our guard
Tumble to the ground
How I miss that farmyard
...

Decision
If I had to choose
between the stars and the moon,
I would choose
to be the stars.
As wonderful as the moon can be at times,
It is still just going through phases.
The moon will never stay the same
and it always depends
on something else to make it shine
Because it has no light of its own.
Stars are locked in their constellations,
Never changing.
Always true.
Waiting patiently,
even when they are outshined
by the moon.
Once the phase passes
and the moon appears smaller and smaller - seemingly...

I would choose

and it always depends
