confused
the day rose and I with it shaking the shackles of the cackling darkness
given full reprieve of the night before, by the light that imprisoned me
specters of many odd shapes retreat
and the dew filled with hope cleansed the earth of what ailed us
the theater of the day before rearranged
and the characters in the play of life cast as pleasant beings
everything looks better in the light
but if you look close enough for the darkness, you will see it
on a beautiful afternoon monsters lurk in the shadows
every smile is fake
it makes me...

inconsolable
sadness comes and there is nothing I can do
it swallows me and I am lost in its melancholy
my soul sinks and my thoughts weep
the pain is unbearable
the heaviness of being desolate
unable to focus my energies
with a listless affect, I take inventory
what's wrong inside me?
my weight is always a problem
I weight a little too much
and sugar would make me feel better, for a moment
I'm struggling with a since of loss
thojugh I have lost nothing
fears mount and I dread everything
the sky is grey and I feel...

broken
tender understanding, I am breaking
broken pieces being battered by a mighty wind
an empath feeling the groans of others
I feel each strike like it's my own body
fears hunt my mind while I sleep
we are in the hands of something larger than ourselves
connecting on the air I shelter those I can
with my voice shout against injustice
if I were to dwell on it, I would blow away as ash
leaving little help to those who surround me
with quiet courage I hold onto the good
the dark is always willing to talk
to take me...

cherish
little hope in expression of dreams
to live in the light of exploration
reaching heights unseen
in my mind rise
it is with great desire I reach out
delving into spirit of the unknown
sacred art in understanding
to live is to grow
secret faith is to listen
to whipering souls with knowledge
sanctifying my body in all I do
simple pleasures are embraced
and I realize life is good
not to be taken for granted
breathe into the day inspiration
and be filled on the wonderments the world has to offer ...

SPIRITUAL POEM

cloudy
my mind turns with the seasons
it is always so
lifting on the airs searching the winds, while I wander
sigh to touch the sky
to fly untethered
my soul reaches out to nature
reading tea leaves and people's faces
an empath I feel so much
which is sometimes too heavy
to escape for a moment to where it's fresh
so often the body makes me feel, clausterphobic
my being longs to be untethered
reaching the limits of my binds
pulling on the restraints
and take off
astral traveling
I return from my voyage ...

delicate
delicate dreamer in love with the sunshine
drifting on a cloud leaving the world below me
chaos travels with me he is a part of me
mischief smiles and I laugh
tender understanding, I created them from my imagination
my racous boys who watch out for me
studious grief, they get angry when i am sad
we rise higher on the air
leaving misfits of faith behind
they will never know the creator
who relishes people's fear
he eats its taste, as a delicacy
my immortal sons rectify for me

gone
holding tight to sanity, I feel it slipping away
tender moments of madness, make me fear
my monsters are nicer than people
they make me laugh and I slip sideways into their world
they're never too busy to talk
amusing phantoms they entertain
telling me secrets of the universes
I'm amazed left with more questions
until I delve too deeply and I'm drawn in
lost in their world
my friends disappear
reality bends then alters
my thoughts warp
everything looks different
and I wander deeper in still
errant in...

witchery
jaded art speaks of violence
in my shadowy theater
creatures whose fangs glisten are listening
they hunger for the words that will release them
sit a spell and evoke danger
twist the desire it hesitates
waiting for what I'm unsure
valuable wisdom to be sure
secreting the blood lust
your horns show
nothing is as wicked
derelict of hope you go into the night
with a mission of intent
deadly sloth of necromancy
reanimating something you saw on t.v.
spill the need the tarmac is listening
a host of...

daffodil
daffodil souls like sprites among the trees
fairies that gather moss frolicking in the sun, then disappear
putting my mind at ease
they talk on the air, floating
while perfectly in tune, with the melody playing quietly, within me
dancing on the winds, they gather my secrets
saving enough for dreams
they appear as flowers should anyone else come near
dear ones of the forrested realms
tending to the sacred arts of transformation and renewal
gathering the dew from blades of grass
they glory in light but know the dark ...

creep
a fire burn through me I could not contain
always boiling under the surface waiting to escape
a darkness so great you'd shudder to be in its way
heavy and old with heady magic
a drop of blood from me and you will pay mightly
patiently the flames wait for somone bold enough to disturb it
looking so much like sunshine
they always underestimate it, though I warn
cold and calculated like a bank vault opening up
steel cylindars slam into place and it's out
you provoked the demon
now it's free
it's coming for you...

sadness
within the shadows of the day
contemplating myself and how I relate
with difficulties in relationships
I hold myself accountable
when people hurt my feelings I'm not just mean, I'm vicious
it hurts me later on
there is no taking it back
my anger is dreaded
my Father corrects me
asking me how i want to be
my answer is I don't want to hurt those I love
confessions of the heart
it is distressing how I sometimes behave
depression is setting in, so often I take things personal
my soul should know better ...
