PHOTO TRIGGER WARNING
Because you chose to ignore
Words written in bold
And do your own thing
You made my breasts unbearable
Unbeautiful
(I’m entitled to make up a word here)
Unwearable
Unimaginably painful
Just all together un
This surgery was to
Help me with pain
You should be ashamed of yourself
Because you chose to ignore
Words written in bold
And do your own thing
You made my breasts unbearable
Unbeautiful
(I’m entitled to make up a word here)
Unwearable
Unimaginably painful
Just all together un
This surgery was to
Help me with pain
You should be ashamed of yourself

Shell shocked
Napalm dreams
War machine
Atomic mushroom clouds
Hide my view through the jungle
Agent orange chokes
My vision of hell soaks
Into experimental lab rats
While burnt out buildings crumble
H-bomb nightmares
Skin charred bare
In concentration camps
Where gas chambers rumble
Sweat soaked bed
Shell shocked head
Safe at home?
Brings an inaudible mumble
War machine
Atomic mushroom clouds
Hide my view through the jungle
Agent orange chokes
My vision of hell soaks
Into experimental lab rats
While burnt out buildings crumble
H-bomb nightmares
Skin charred bare
In concentration camps
Where gas chambers rumble
Sweat soaked bed
Shell shocked head
Safe at home?
Brings an inaudible mumble

Will You Be My Person
Are you my person?
When I need you in the dark
When the nightmare won't leave me alone
Even in the day
When I need to be held
Feeling the security that life doesn't give me
Make me feel like everything is OK
Will you be my person?
When I need you in the dark
When the nightmare won't leave me alone
Even in the day
When I need to be held
Feeling the security that life doesn't give me
Make me feel like everything is OK
Will you be my person?

Let Me In...
I see you there,
A fortress carved of shadow and silence,
Every stone a scar,
Every wall a memory of someone who taught you
That love was a weapon
And trust was a wound waiting to happen.
But I am not them.
I am not the echoes that haunt your halls,
Not the ghosts that call your name with empty promises.
I am here, flesh and blood,
And I will stand in the storm of your defenses
Until you let me through.
Let me in.
Not to take from you,
Not to demand your strength,
Not to claim your broken pieces as my own. ...

Not the ghosts that call your name with empty promises.

March of Ides are Afraid
March of Ides are Afraid”
Something billowing haunts March
Torturing the essence of the heart
Unknown the smithereens it brings
Lies upon Hades’ heathens wings
Shallow are ones smothered in regret
Dancing jagged thorns never to forget
Numbness flows within hollow veins
Will infinity forthcoming be in flames?
Way of the warriors extend your blade
Take out evil-doers consumed with hate
Crawling the skin just chillin like a villain
Eden's fruit beget sin, wikked was forgiven
Enraged...

Skeletons out of the closet!
From a very young age
I've always loved skeletons
and I kept all those I found
along the path of this life...
I have no idea why but apparently
they all want to come out of the closet
so suddenly... unexpectedly.
In the next minute, probably!

I am working my way back to you Father
I am working my way back to you Father
I am very sorry for all my bad behavior
But I was frustrated
With the poems I was writing for you
Because I was stuck
Writing poems for you
I started writing some poems for you
But I couldn't get right
So I had to erased it and started again
A few times
Because I wasn't satisfied with
The way it was coming out
Maybe I need to put my brain to rest
And start to vent a little
All day today
I am very sorry for all my bad behavior
But I was frustrated
With the poems I was writing for you
Because I was stuck
Writing poems for you
I started writing some poems for you
But I couldn't get right
So I had to erased it and started again
A few times
Because I wasn't satisfied with
The way it was coming out
Maybe I need to put my brain to rest
And start to vent a little

An Unspoken Truth
Reflecting on the toxic relationship I was in earlier this year, there's a profound truth that I have learned. A truth that's unseen. Unspoken. The forbidden truth. The truth that inconveniences men who don't get a lot of women. It is this very truth that shakes me to my core. Fear. So much fear around it.
As a woman with a more positive aura than the man I was with and who was an easy magnet for men, I knew from the beginning that I felt uncomfortable. But as usual, I ignored that feeling.
He was one of those nice guys who said all the right words, but his actions...

Her Picture
HER PICTURE
“Here it is Lyle,” Gary said handing him the picture. Lyle reached up from the hospital bed and
winced. The pain was excruciating.
“Who is she?” Gary asked. “I know I've seen her somewhere.”
“She's special,” Lyle said, looking into her crystal blue eyes smiling a little.
“Do you know her?” Gary asked.
“Yeah. Yeah I do,” Lyle said. “In a different sort of way maybe we all do.”
Gary grunted. “How you feeling buddy?”
“Okay,” Lyle said looking at his friend. “Just a little weak. It's...

mercy.
swore to myself
I won't fall for your pleadings
will ignore you when you cry for help
leave you there all alone
just how you did to me
but one glance at you
and my heart yearns to help you
even if it means
breaking myself again allover
you knew it,didn't you?
I cant leave you suffering
to fix pieces of me
so here i am again
going in circles
you hurt me
I fix you
My brain begs for mercy
my heart wishes for your well being
you knew it,didn't you?
I cant leave you suffering
to fix pieces...

POGO STICK.
People think they know her
They see a face blue eyes and
half a smile in peach Melba
lipstick.
They don’t see her with all her
internal drawers from the whispers
of her curly locks of hair to her two
tone mod shoes . With a buckle on
show in a silvery wistful way .
She is invisible to most which makes
her feel like a ghost in life but it is
better to remain a mystery. Maybe
she is murder she wrote of the true
detective but she won’t give you any
clues .
