I am conflicted right now
I am conflicted right now:
I was grounded, and secure; I was certain, and I was pure
I allowed myself to feel, the things I said I would not
I stepped into the stew pan of mixed up, messed up, crazy thoughts
I am in-love
What good can come from being the one; that jealousy has touched?
Like a noose, tied around my neck is the burden of love
I was strung up, and hung from the oak… I hang alone, dangling limp
Love has no friends
I just want to go back to where I was before; before the pain I experienced
Loving him
What would the wolf do; when a...

Heal
Heal:
The darkness is calling; to me again
Saying let go, and take time to listen
The moon is crescent, lying on the magic star
The white glow emanates close, yet a haze afar
I wonder; what I was struggling for?
The calm around me, caresses my soul
I release the burden, of the mistakes I’ve made
As the darkness, soothes the bruises and the pain
I hear a song sung, by creatures of the night
Saying let go, take time to listen…and ~ heal

I will always love you
I will always love you:
When I said I love you
I meant it, and I will always want to
When you said you loved me
What were you thinking?
Your beauty and majesty, it is all I think of when I wake
Your sweet calming words, they are all I dream of when I sleep
When I said I love you
It is something, I had devoted myself to
When you said you love me
What were you thinking?

Strong
Strong:
Are you strong enough; for a crazy bitch like me?
Can you handle all my needs; live with them… give into me
It’s really simply; just be honest with me, and always accept me
I will fill the holes in; I will give you everything
I am not normal; I cannot pretend to be
I will wipe away your tears; I will take away your pain
I will make my mark on your soul; it is you that I claim
I want to own you; and drive you insane
It’s a matter of dependency: I need you
I need you to need me too
For you I will go through anything
I just...

You~ Me
You~ Me:
It’s a story of passion
Intertwined into a dream
It was a beautiful ~ magical thing
He was exotic~ a lake fish swimming in the deep
She was hypnotic~ a woman-child running free
He had layers of fresh scares~ they healed over pain
She has her past~ it conditioned her to be a certain way
It’s a lesson of hope
Webs weaved with unbridled realities
It is lies, deceit, and the destruction of humanity
Up high on a mountain~ the sky is choked black
The people are simple and peaceful, but they are scared that~
The cries...

Shattered
Shattered:
Please; I am shattered, I just want to pick up the pieces of me left, if there is anything
I just want to stop wondering, if you are real or just words; do you love me
I just want to be happy and free; I don’t want to wait on you, every damn day
I just want to be me; the sex feign, natural magic queen, curious girl I always been
Shattered! Into a million pieces, I can’t do this
Its killing me! It’s too deep, it is hurting me
I love you! But I chose not to, I do not want to
I am shattered! It’s too deep it is torturing me
I...

A few words
A few words:
I read, only a few words
My heart became still
I remembered the man, I gave it to
The purest beauty; hidden from view
I read of the mountains, and the mist
I thought to myself
“I want to be wrapped up, inside of this”
I been so ignorant
So many forces on edge
The grace, the peace, the lavishness of love
Affected me
The words this man used; what he said
I was lost in my corner; a small hole in the land
The place I became use to; but it is not who I am
Reading only a few words...

I discovered something
I discovered something:
I cannot breathe shallow anymore
I cannot be shallow anymore
I cannot be the same
I discovered something
I searched, and I studied, and I watched, and I learned… about
Men
They interest me
The way they dominate, discriminate, fall back and then hesitate
Take orders, follow rules; do just as they are told
Mindlessly, they follow the man- that is leading them
Subconsciously; they wish that was the man, they could be
Men care most, about what men think
I watch, I study and observe; I like to learn...
