heartless
the aching rain poured in my heart
a torrent of grief
without your caress
there are no warm sun rays
to take away the pain
bitter & raw
brooding with the bite of conniving
is this sorrow
wondering if I will see
the sunshine in your eyes again
your glance these days
reflects that of my soul
dark & moody
with a chance of thunderstorms
your silence
the lightening bolt
that crashes into my hurt
electrifying...

Opera Of Poetics
gritted teeth grinds the sand
blown by the fist
of the blackened night
beating down your resolve
to walk on through the city streets
waxing doldrums
enough to bring you to your knees
you answered with molotov cocktail poetics
an explosion of words
blowing down the day & night
exciting me

the meth diaries~the excuse
slip inside
& get lost here
the devil has me by the throat
it's name crystal meth
i'm trembling on the inside
Christmas is coming
& I have to be clean
afraid of the come down
what if I can't
will I go around my family high?
my mom is a nurse she will know
if my eyes are dilated
looking like two full moons
I reason within myself
that it was first used
as a depression cure
i'm depressed
so what the hell?
i'm not sure where i'm going

I don't want Wonderland~end game
I can say i'm clean today
& I don't desire meth
crave it yes
want it no
when the craving comes
I remind myself it's there for the getting
but why I don't want it anymore
it will always be there
if the world should get too hard
right now I want to be clean for the holidays
not high or coming down
so I stopped eight days ago
gave myself time to rest
when I wanted to create
but felt unable
I told myself it's okay
take care of yourself
when I counldn't drag myself out of bed

secret garden
in my grief i saw a light
fields of daisies planted
especially for me
a safe place to rest
where i can sleep
far from the howls of demons
that hunt me in my dreams
you stand at the gates
Archangel Michael
assigned to me since birth
you smile casually
& say
"we've seen worse"
"sleep in the garden
kept just for you
no choking weeds
or mocking thoughts ...

meth tears
inside i cry
for the drug battle lost
another day
fear has me by the throat
what if you're found out?
you would lose all you love
for what?
because you couldn't
take another day down
what compels you to go on?
when you should lie sleeping
until your body is healed
you need to think of those
who most need you
your drive to write
will not fail you
in your darkest hours
you will find inspiration

Rage
i can't get it straight
supression of emotion
is what i'm master of
bone deep
my internal rage
burns out of contol
& don't you know
i feed it
drug demons bark
& i give them fresh meat
pieces of my inner beauty
self dignity
& pride
all to appease
the beast that craves
with a race to the death's gates
i can't get there fast enough
as i run with the down trodden ...

inked in pain
you think i've reached my end?
i've just started to build
in momentum & strength
broken down to nothing
I begin again
in power & verse
I lay it out
for you to consume
twisted thoughts
spring from a wasteland
raw feelings
served up cold
bitter is the water
i'm tapping into now
the well contaminated

whispers
the small quiet voice within me
went silent one day
it abandoned this lady
left in the dark
i reached with my mind
to the furthest reaches of space
& was left wanting
a forlorn child of the universe
with no one to call to
i wandered the streets alone
viciously tormented
by the voices from without
the kind that press in on...

fear
you don't know my pain
you don't
because I never
let you touch me there
not the source of the ache
where fear meets real hurt
they secretly conspire against me
fear & hurt
plot my downfall
if not for them
I may embrace all life has to offer
instead my head is full of what if's
always waiting for the worst
I've long lived as a pessimist
it started somewhere in childhood
a knowledge if things can go bad
they usually do
sooner or later
so I...

corseted for pleasure
in the violet gloaming
i saw you there
& gazed into your depths
in your eyes
supernovas are born
we kiss
& exhale stars
in repose
you trace the celestial
hidden secrets
not known to man
on my delicate curves
corseted
& laced tight
to accentuate
my tiny waist
as my bossom ...

daisy chains
my mind seeks
the wildflower fields
where my soul takes shelter
i float there now
in my mind's eye
i see you
the most delicate beauty
on the rolling plains
your magical presence
awoke me this morning
taking me to a lovely place
where we lie in nature's haven
here my soul is free
to take flight
riding the cloud
of your life giving poetry ...
