POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
Wait
I float up so high above the mountains when I feel like I am in your hands
I can see all the small things that really don’t mean much of anything
I feel safe like nothing can touch me and I am happy and I am free
I am so scared of falling so I try not to breathe, I am so scared of being happy
Then my baby looks at me and I drift off into a sea of mystic reality
I feel all those intense things, like electric simplicity sustaining me, it’s you
Baby makes me feel this way and I dance and dance and dance in the rain
Jumping in mud...

Shhhhhh…
Please just be silent, don’t say a word
I don’t want to hear it anymore
Can’t you understand, I can’t, I can’t, I can’t
I do not want to listen to you anymore
Twenty years, twenty years, twenty fucking years
led me here, I am here… When I, I just wanted to be there
Respect, you want that from me?
Now you say all those little things, that I use to need, Now, Now…NOW
Divorce, it means never… Never again
You do not own me, I can’t even think of that life again…and
I am here, and I hear… you laughing… at me, about him...

I Love You
I hit turbulence, in this mediocre disturbance…I lingered in
My mind shifts, into I love you gear… when I think your hurting
GOD I wish you where here
I love you… I don’t have control, I love you
I trust you… I don’t always want to, but I trust you
Believe it or not ~ Believe it or not
I listen to you, I listen to you, I listen to you… I love to Iisten to you
My mind shifts, into I love you gear… when I think your hurting
GOD I wish you where here
I love you… I don’t have control, I love you
I trust you… I don’t always want to, but I trust you
Believe it or not ~ Believe it or not
I listen to you, I listen to you, I listen to you… I love to Iisten to you

Childhood Memories
It’s so funny, it’s so funny, I am laughing so hard
I cant stop, if I did, I would fall to my knees crying
I remember it like yesterday, walking down the steps I just got done cleaning my aunts house
She looked at me, my aunt said so casually, in front of all the guest sitting there watching
Lori you stink…I was frozen, I was 11
I didn't know what she meant, I asked her what do you mean?
She said you stink, didn't your mom teach you anything?
When you start growing up, you need to wear deodorant
I did not know what that was, I...

Can I hide Please??
I feel like hiding
I have heard so many things
I feel like hiding
I have been called ugly, by my mom and relatives; because I am mixed. I have been called less then a prostitute because I wouldn't fuck him after i divorced him. I have been told I am not to be taken seriously, by someone who had the highest chance with me. I am always called fat it has become part of my identity. Not to mention when I look in the mirrors, that I try so hard to avoid; I see everything they said is true about me.
I am 5’ 4
My hands are small so are my feet
My legs...

Missing
Is it in you, the ability… do you have the capability
to love me
can you be the one… I hope you are the one, to see me
and love me
I am not perfect, I have to many flaws to name
but
My love is strong, and my devotion is the same
if
Only you can be the one who, really undoubtedly
loves me
love me, love me, love, lovingly look me in the eyes
and
let me see inside, that you truly, love, love, love me
It is hard to say this; but I really miss, watching you sleep
It’s crazy, but I feel so alone, when your not with me

Natural
The peaks cap in high altitudes
* It looks like white diamonds, shimmering on our cold wet bodies
** I need to feel you baby, make love, make love to me
*** The snow turns into slush, our forms begin entwining
**** Heat rises, inducing a kind of passion… and steam, starts rising
The valley floods from the pouring rains
* My king, my love, come bathe with me: in natural scents of ecstasy
** Fresh rain coming down on you and me, Baptizing our bodies
*** We relish in each others touch lingering in the rush
**** Swimming in the sanctuary of loving you,...

"Moonlight Sonata" Saving Me
I close my eyes, I need to get away… I’ve become a prisoner
I listen drifting off, into a far away escape
This cage I have been locked up in, is not such a confining space
“Moonlight Sonata”… A saving grace
Weighted upon my burdened mind, and the tears dry on my face
I am not me, and I am not in this place
Every rolling note, each gentle hook, and passionate interlude
lifts me up, and cradles me, holding me, carrying me
Out so far away, back in again, as the storm plays my emotions
The melody takes my soul away, past the Neverland … I escaped...

Can You
Can you release me, do you have what it takes, to… set me free
Are you strong enough to fulfill my deepest needs, can you handle me
Can you smell me, can you smell what’s happening
My desire, my fire, my need … can you smell me
I am warm, soft, smooth and giving… I am ready, are you ready
Do you want to touch me, and rub your hands over my body
Are you just going to sit there, and watch me… I need you, I need
Don’t make me beg, but I will if you want me to… Please, please
Can you release me, do you have what it takes, to… set me free

World
Like the dusty and dry, loosely laden, barren broken, splitting open trampled, ground… I was waiting, searching, praying, burning, hoping, dreaming, longing and wishing… for replenishment, subsidence, nourishment, refreshment… Then I met you ~ your strong, rationale, bold, powerful, intense, masterful, sexy, perfectly sculpted, A chiseled Piece of artwork
You became my world
You became my world

Nature or Nurture
Innocence…or innocently thinking
Playful…or playfully saying
Aggressive, Gentle, Strong, Weak, Massive… or Passive
Is it emotional…this mark, we are only willing to expose
Will you surrender yourself to me?
Will you let me guard you, as you sleep?
Joyous laughter
Playing together; with no thoughts about what happens after
I am called eccentric… it is just my nature
