POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
Poet Introduction
I don't consider myself a poet- just a woman with too many stories fighting to get out. Encouraged by a dear sweet twin flame to share my mind and my words with others, I am here.
You're Gone
I cried for days locked in my room-
on the bed where we shared
some wonderful nights
and happy afternoons
You had been mine
and I had been yours
for what seemed a moment
and then that bullet found you
from out of the dark
I was alone for many years
after that horrible night
I am finally able to see
the possibility of a future with him
he makes me laugh
and I smile when I think of him
he touches my heart
and I don't know where it will go-
or even if it will go anywhere
I just know I am all out of tears...
on the bed where we shared
some wonderful nights
and happy afternoons
You had been mine
and I had been yours
for what seemed a moment
and then that bullet found you
from out of the dark
I was alone for many years
after that horrible night
I am finally able to see
the possibility of a future with him
he makes me laugh
and I smile when I think of him
he touches my heart
and I don't know where it will go-
or even if it will go anywhere
I just know I am all out of tears...

Sometimes
October 23, 2007
Sometimes I swear I feel you
your breath on the back of my neck
Sometimes I swear I hear you
the songs you would sing in the mornings
Sometimes I swear I smell you
your favorite soap-that smells so clean and manly
Sometimes I swear I taste you
the taste of your lips on mine wakes me at nght
Sometimes I swear you are still here
living every day like we used to-
But you aren't- you are off exploring-
the universe has many secrets for you
the stars light your path across the Milky Way
And your ghost...
Sometimes I swear I feel you
your breath on the back of my neck
Sometimes I swear I hear you
the songs you would sing in the mornings
Sometimes I swear I smell you
your favorite soap-that smells so clean and manly
Sometimes I swear I taste you
the taste of your lips on mine wakes me at nght
Sometimes I swear you are still here
living every day like we used to-
But you aren't- you are off exploring-
the universe has many secrets for you
the stars light your path across the Milky Way
And your ghost...

Sunday Morning In New Orleans
I woke up to the sound of the riverboat
the slow melodic tempo of the engines
I had to go out and watch the passengers board
I put on my shorts and a tank top
grabbed my coffee and walked across the street
I sat down on the bench and lost myself
The Mississippi River just flowing along
the passengers boarding the riverboat
smiling and excited to start their adventure,
me, no shoes, ripped and too short for my age shorts,
my hair flying everywhere,\
I felt free-
I felt like the river looked and I felt like
those passengers...
the slow melodic tempo of the engines
I had to go out and watch the passengers board
I put on my shorts and a tank top
grabbed my coffee and walked across the street
I sat down on the bench and lost myself
The Mississippi River just flowing along
the passengers boarding the riverboat
smiling and excited to start their adventure,
me, no shoes, ripped and too short for my age shorts,
my hair flying everywhere,\
I felt free-
I felt like the river looked and I felt like
those passengers...

Still
the feel of your hand on my back still lingers
long after I've left
the taste of your lips is still fresh on mine
long after I've driven away
The smell of "us" of "we" still clings to my skin
long after I've gotten home
The wanting you still haunts me
long after I've crawled into my bed
My love for you still lives
Long after we've said goodbye
long after I've left
the taste of your lips is still fresh on mine
long after I've driven away
The smell of "us" of "we" still clings to my skin
long after I've gotten home
The wanting you still haunts me
long after I've crawled into my bed
My love for you still lives
Long after we've said goodbye
