Perfectionism
From a young age
I was terrified
I would reach my full potential
And there would be nothing left of me
I was terrified
I would reach my full potential
And there would be nothing left of me

wonderland
in my head the life I've lived
seems magic and whimsy did a flip
a hand pressed flat against a mirror
and now I'm trapped in underland
turns out the Queen of Hearts
is quite the narc and pretty smart
and I was privileged to be raised in her court,
but the wonder dies when children grow up.
I was never enough.
so let's play pretend
that we're best friends
I'll fake a smile
she'll sigh again
I piss her off
when I see right through
the innocent illusion
gazes locked as we circle ...

At Your Alter
Most high I am at your alter, your Soulja tried and true. My heart never falters I stand tall because I am you.
I keep my crown in heaven because hell is a place my feet has already walk through. I keep the sun in my heart as I rise and paint the sky blue.
I have fought internal battles so can you count the multitude of demons that I have slew. How can a bird cry about a sky he never flew.
I danced on the battlefield where the cold winds blew. So how could I find the warmth of love if I have not found no fire in you.

Giving Up
I just let it all get away from me
And let the mayhem wash over me
The loss of hope brings a peace of mind
It can't go any more wrong
Don't try to set the course
Or set the record straight
It's going to happen anyway
So sit back and let it take you away
No way to make it right
So don't even try
Get comfy in your chair
And kiss your ass goodbye
The loss of control brings a certain peacefulness
Since it's no longer in your hands
The ship will go where it wants to steer
Enjoy the scenery as it draws near
Remember ...

Circling Back
Insanity is enchanting, madness, addictive.
Between the lines, the warmth of your smile is enough.
I know I am safe when serenity comes into view as a stray thought.
You are timely to recite my last rites.
I am content, grateful for that.
Comforted.
I watch from above as the words flow forth on the winds of time.
The cosmos is angelic and welcoming.
Traveling into my subconsciousness during my dreams is an adventure.
I become another living being.
I am assertive.
I am aggressive.
I’m a loud mouth.
I’m not...

Reading the Future in Braille
I cry in my poems
I cried long ago
but all my sins are known
and the scars are healing except
the ones of my making.
I walk in the dark
but read the future in braille
missteps and curses aside
I'm doing just fine
now is all that matters
This place, this time, this now
holds the magic of our lives
and the simple joy
to be ourselves
we have always been free
Do not speak of love
nor talk of the soul
words of hidden chains
say instead ...
We are not blind to each other ...

YOU
You are special
You are unique
You are powerful
You are equipped
You are knowledgeable
You are smart
You are important
You are valuable
You are loved...but,
always remember that
You are alone!

Soon The Time Shall Come
The loops of playtime
threaded through mind
it took just one look
and I was transported
the seduction of your mouth
before turning around
to be entered
It never fails
to provoke a need in me
to feel the energy
of your want
But I can no longer quietly wait
and deny myself
the opportunity
to find it
with another
That time has expired
and this mind must be rewired
I scan the faces sometimes
waiting for that delicious gleam in eye
I haven't seen it in some...

Time
Time is a strange thing.
Like when your having fun.
It fly's bye, Oh so fast.
It slows down exponential.
When your tyre's are running flat.
It doesn't matter. That you've got a spare.
Your stuck and that's that.
Patience, carm & confidence.
Till the slow time passes bye.
I'll know when it over.
When time speeds up again.
No doubt this is cyclic
Time will drift by slow and fast.
Time and time again.
Swinging like a pendulum.
Equilibrium passing bye.
As...

The Fallen
I am the of the fallen. Yet I heard the calling, it said rise to your feet. What is to you when you were born in heat.
Wipe that dust away from your face wipe your tears. Yes you have fallen many times but you are still here.
Escape that blinding pain and face your fears. Your storms has passed, now face your fears, travel with faith your path is clear.
You are resurrected dignified and respected. Love yourself guard your heart, and protect it.
And let no one define to you .who you are, some will tell you are a cloud, when you are a star.

Beyond The Stigma
Disability doesn’t come for free
It’s not free from
Ignorance
Bullying
Stress
Lack of self worth
Maybe it’s meant to be
To be a martyr
Pave the way
For those that will follow
So they won’t feel the pain
The right of acceptance is a battle
There’s no emergency here
Just a single spastic
Once stamped on
There will be no more trouble
What remains undercover
Becomes normal behaviour
It’s not free from
Ignorance
Bullying
Stress
Lack of self worth
Maybe it’s meant to be
To be a martyr
Pave the way
For those that will follow
So they won’t feel the pain
The right of acceptance is a battle
There’s no emergency here
Just a single spastic
Once stamped on
There will be no more trouble
What remains undercover
Becomes normal behaviour

No Longer Home
I wish I could forget you like a photo that
Has been torn and lost in the fire, but how
Can one throw away years of friendship
And a deep attraction? When you flat
Out told me that you would never allow
Yourself to hurt me, but you did. Like a ship
Wreck all you can do is watch and hope
For the best all the while you ruined any
Chance for redemption. The memories
Are still there, but the truth is the rope
To hold them together is frayed. As many
Months went by, there were no remedies
To the pain I was feeling or all the...
