POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
Poet Introduction
I'm honest and real and that's all I can be. I have been writing poetry since I was seven. I don't normally put myself out there but I guess its not a secret anymore.

Borrow You
My hips sweep against your body so light
Tracing the contour of your face
I don’t want to waste time
Let's make this right
My sweet full lips travel to another land
It’s foreign to me but it seems so right
My hands linger in between
I beg and I need
May I borrow your body?
What about your mind?
Can I make it mine?
Drink it up wrap it around a vine
Intertwine our minds let them love
Shall we never be unkind
Tracing the contour of your face
I don’t want to waste time
Let's make this right
My sweet full lips travel to another land
It’s foreign to me but it seems so right
My hands linger in between
I beg and I need
May I borrow your body?
What about your mind?
Can I make it mine?
Drink it up wrap it around a vine
Intertwine our minds let them love
Shall we never be unkind

Disengage Youth
I want to disentangle the layers of your skin
Peeling back what makes you tick
Fury that ate your intellect and makes me sick
Sinful but you don’t see
What you have done to me
Through bone and shards of glass
Right into the center of my youth
Tempting me with your kindness that I believed all too well
As my skeletal frame reached for you
I have something that is for you
You attend church for the sins you committed
Setting you at ease
While you hold your prayer beads
I bleed
The insides of my eyes can’t see anymore...
Peeling back what makes you tick
Fury that ate your intellect and makes me sick
Sinful but you don’t see
What you have done to me
Through bone and shards of glass
Right into the center of my youth
Tempting me with your kindness that I believed all too well
As my skeletal frame reached for you
I have something that is for you
You attend church for the sins you committed
Setting you at ease
While you hold your prayer beads
I bleed
The insides of my eyes can’t see anymore...

Upon The Clouds
A fetus dressed like a blue bird at night
Lungs that don't have a fight
Wings that cannot take flight
Sweet face with delicate feathers
Touching an spirit with gods mouth
Magic upon the clouds
With a heart that will not die
But the will to survive
Lungs that don't have a fight
Wings that cannot take flight
Sweet face with delicate feathers
Touching an spirit with gods mouth
Magic upon the clouds
With a heart that will not die
But the will to survive

Into This Earth
There are moments we create
Holding dear
Holding near
With expectations and hopeful dreams
The very second we foresee the future
Going with the flow with no particular place to go
But In an instant it can all be gone
I envisage being young and free
Not feeble and somber
When my days were not yet numbered
I look into the mirror
I don't recognize the person looking back at me
Perhaps I'm a ghost
Floating through this so called life
On a diet that goes directly to death
It came and took me
It came and shook me
My race...
Holding dear
Holding near
With expectations and hopeful dreams
The very second we foresee the future
Going with the flow with no particular place to go
But In an instant it can all be gone
I envisage being young and free
Not feeble and somber

I don't recognize the person looking back at me
Perhaps I'm a ghost
Floating through this so called life
On a diet that goes directly to death

Grace Has Gone
Where has all the grace gone?
People that say excuse me and please
Men that act like gentlemen and get the door
Women who wear elegant dresses and leave something to the imagination
When people had poise
Walks through the parks and family rides
Flowers in the hair and boutonnieres
Picnic lunches and love notes
Music that makes you sway
Cold lemonade on a summers days
Sunday afternoon after church gathering around
Small quaint towns where everyone belonged
When kindness and empathy was taught to the young
Values were still in place ...
People that say excuse me and please

Cold lemonade on a summers days

Paper And Ink
A verse, full of passion
I disgorge on to this paper these words of truth
Foraging the depths of myself
As the verses twisted and tumbled in my core
Consuming vowels and consonants leaving nothing behind
I would purge the language of love
If poetry was edible could I draw meaning from its paper and ink?
I disgorge on to this paper these words of truth
Foraging the depths of myself
As the verses twisted and tumbled in my core

Feeding The Spine
The lights dance across the bar
As I wait
I don't want to shine just for anyone
The gift I have to share is a sin
I don't normally sleep around
But this heart of mine is gone
If you enter me I will be complete
I will grow weak
With your fingers like spiders nibbling at my spine
Making me crave your touch
And then I will be a typical whiny bitch and complain
Why did you fuck me?
Do you even care?
I'm such a fool
But who cares
As I vomit out the remnants of you out of my throat
I choke on the hollowness that lives in...

The Corner Of My Place
When I was just a young child
I wanted to fly
Touch the sun and kiss the sky
Everyday at noon
I would run through the fields and play
That was before it was all grey
When my story didn't fade
I could close my eyes and escape
When the birds would whisper and play
Before things were gray
Before I lost my place
I use to dream of a place where peace lived
Now there is a storm in every corner of my place
Loneliness is so vivid and real
Just wish the clouds of darkness would pass me by
I have to believe that the breeze will...

Tiptoe In Your Heart
I tiptoed with my bare feet into your soul
With tiny secrets we keep
I swam inside your stomach
I wanted to know
Tenderly I approached your wounds
But my mouth couldn't heal
The quiet love we made with hush tones and make belief
With tiny secrets we keep
I swam inside your stomach
I wanted to know
Tenderly I approached your wounds
But my mouth couldn't heal
The quiet love we made with hush tones and make belief

Remains Of Me
Little bird with remains of me
Ingesting my innards but who cares anyway
Lets sleep this day
Plant me as you were
I shall lay here
As the sparks fly and I flow
Humming to myself the serenity of it all
For who I don’t know and I shall not care
I travel in circles diminishing with the hilarity of it all
The reflection is not me
But an livid butterfly that cant be free
With disheveled wings that beat on one another
A carcass made of dust
Use them make a nest
A comfortable place for you and me
With what ever residue you...
Ingesting my innards but who cares anyway
Lets sleep this day
Plant me as you were
I shall lay here
As the sparks fly and I flow
Humming to myself the serenity of it all
For who I don’t know and I shall not care
I travel in circles diminishing with the hilarity of it all
The reflection is not me
But an livid butterfly that cant be free
With disheveled wings that beat on one another
A carcass made of dust
Use them make a nest
A comfortable place for you and me
With what ever residue you...

Touch Your Eyes
I want to run through the garden of your love
Our bodies dancing in the rain
Your fingers touch me so graciously
I become alive my soul has been set a fire
Your hands dance slowly across my stomach
I feel the comfort of your kiss
I allow you to dance with my mouth
Tuck you inside me and keep you safe
I could touch your eyes and look inside
Our bodies dancing in the rain
Your fingers touch me so graciously
I become alive my soul has been set a fire
Your hands dance slowly across my stomach
I feel the comfort of your kiss
I allow you to dance with my mouth
Tuck you inside me and keep you safe
I could touch your eyes and look inside

Vanilla Ice Cream
It burned my little petal
But the gun was cold on my face
I was not afraid
I was in another place
My imagination escaped
I ran through fields of flowers
Catching butterflies and smelling daffodils
I blew bubbles slowly into the air
Chased the dog across the yard
I had a vanilla ice cream and it was just right
The sun was warm against my skin
I was not inside a cage
But the gun was cold on my face
I was not afraid
I was in another place
My imagination escaped
I ran through fields of flowers
Catching butterflies and smelling daffodils
I blew bubbles slowly into the air
Chased the dog across the yard
I had a vanilla ice cream and it was just right
The sun was warm against my skin
I was not inside a cage
