POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
Poet Introduction
I am Poetic Gawdess, self proclaimed poet of all things, not limited to. I write where my heart takes me. So do me a favor and read something you might enjoy.
The Girl of Your Nightmares
She is often described as wicked,
all because, well she’s “different.”
She’s fond of the nighttime
and the color black,
but it doesn’t mean she’s evil,
cut the girl some slack.
She looks unapproachable
she wears a mean look on her face,
like she would take your soul,
or put bitches in their place.
But she’s actually quite pleasant,
if you took the time to get to know her.
Instead of judge her from afar,
or give her the cold shoulder.
Her laugh is infectious,
her eyes are hypnotic....

Sore Loser
I know what it means to have loved
and have lost.
I never take it lightly—
simply because i hate to lose.
Now i see what happens when you snooze.
One misstep was all it took.
One minute i had you,
and now look…
I’m shook.
You’re gone, I’m gone..
Lost in the wind..
What happened to all of our plans?
What happened to my twin?
Not this shit again,
regretting rash decisions..
Feeling like a train wreck
Or a major car collision.
Wish i would’ve handled it correctly,
with more careful...
and have lost.

Euphoria
Memories began to fade..
I could no longer relive the days,
that I used to know.
Nor could I be the girl, I used to be.
An entirely different version of myself
I am not the same girl, that you see.
How I long for the feelings of euphoria,
to come and visit me.
In the instant I was happy, wild, young, and carefree.
Adulthood reared its hand back and slapped me in the face,
and now I feel like I am trapped in the sunken place.
Wanting to crawl out of this hole
that I have so blindly dug on my own accord.
I am in...

Whiplash
Up,
Down,
Hot,
Cold,
Hell yes,
Fuck no.
I can’t keep up.
Shit is going fast.
Some time it’s real good,
others it’s real bad.
Holding onto my spinning head,
I think I’m giving myself whiplash.
I need some water,
and maybe several seats.
I can’t eat,
I can’t think,
hell, I can’t even sleep.
My mind is going ninety— to nothing.
I’m gonna crash and burn.
Yet, like a moth to a flame..
Here I am again. You’d think I’d have learned.
Fuck yes
Hell no
Down

Lovers or Losers?
No longer blindfolded
by your antics,
or your words that never rang true.
I’m free of the hold you had on me.
But now what is there for me to do?
I have to reacclimatize to this new life.
A life without you.
I’ve loved you,
much more than I’ve loved myself.
And you see, that’s the problem.
You’re the only thing I’ve ever known.
I was weak for you,
I had no idea how to be strong.
Not even an inkling.
And when this boat went down,
you abandoned ship, even if it meant
leaving me sinking.
And I still took...
by your antics,
or your words that never rang true.
I’m free of the hold you had on me.

Don’t Leave Me By Myself…
My mind is a mess,
and usually i’m pretty organized.
But today is a day of darkness,
no more sunny skies.
It’s mostly cloudy, the world’s gone gray.
Would it be worse, if I asked you to stay?
I don’t want to be in my own company,
it’s no good for me.
No rainbows, just rain boots and rain coats.
Do I dare jump in the puddles?
What if it’s too deep?
I see what I thought to be my reflection, but it isn’t me.
The rain has yet to stop falling,
when will it end?
If I called on you, could you be my friend? ...

Pomegranate Kisses
The light in me
craves the darkness in you.
The hint of lust in thine eyes,
tells me that you want me too.
We mustn’t waste time,
as we have none to spare.
Make haste to ye’ olde pomegranate tree,
and wait for me there.
Under the cloak of the night’s sky
we’ll be hidden in the dark.
Devouring each other,
under the blooming pomegranates,
until we hear the cry of the lark.
