Every thing that occurs is a lesson to be learned. We are asked to soul search, go deep within the caverns of ourselves no matter how brutal the terrain of knowing. She wonders why this is so damn important. Isn't it better not to wallow in that pool too long. To keep cool on its surface, and pull yourself out when too many creases form on your skin. But then, someone asks how she's coping and that drowning feeling remains too close to the surface of who she's become. Her longing to remain lighthearted and fun can slip through her fingers too quickly. Becoming quick sand pulling her under,...

sincere
loneliness emits a certain keen
if you're listening you will hear it
an emptiness that gnaws at the soul
indifferent to my own pain
it sometimes rises with pangs of ache
and I am taken aback
doubled over with pain
my heart's sorrow clearly seen
hidden deep within, I swallow it down
regretful emotion, I don't want you to see me this way
it hurts my pride to know you get to me
salvation in a hugs sometimes that's all it takes
a smile, to keep those uneasy feelings at bay
tender emotion, when I can express...

They Called It Rapture
A family memory caressed in my hand
A horrible explosion miles above land
Water-filled lungs and falling debris
The ocean's on fire and I have to flee
Speeding for my life to the tower on the right
Turn back now, I think with all of my might
My body betrays me,and I can't think about why
The bathysphere lowers, and I know I will die
A self-absorbed tyrant appears on the screen
With tales of our greatness, and what we could be
An enterprise so great we could do nothing but thrive
An underwater derelict; how could anyone...
A horrible explosion miles above land
Water-filled lungs and falling debris
The ocean's on fire and I have to flee
Speeding for my life to the tower on the right
Turn back now, I think with all of my might
My body betrays me,and I can't think about why
The bathysphere lowers, and I know I will die
A self-absorbed tyrant appears on the screen
With tales of our greatness, and what we could be
An enterprise so great we could do nothing but thrive
An underwater derelict; how could anyone...

Mono
we stroke different walls in half-light.
fear falls in staggered breaths.
questions dart through skies
like summer swallows. i am
claustrophobic; agoraphobic
in the same stale town. suddenly i
remember how it all once meant
something to me. this complex
desire to disappear in one fixed place.
since winter, black has advanced
closer. i swallow that moon down
from the gold goblet of the sun.
fear falls in staggered breaths.
questions dart through skies
like summer swallows. i am
claustrophobic; agoraphobic
in the same stale town. suddenly i
remember how it all once meant
something to me. this complex
desire to disappear in one fixed place.
since winter, black has advanced
closer. i swallow that moon down
from the gold goblet of the sun.
