My Darkest Fear
Many moments throughout this life
Some are uplifting while others fail
Can’t linger on any of them too long
All that’s fresh eventually turns stale
Wilting slowly as time begins to fade
Worried that one day it will disappear
Unable to remember who I used to be
Being shackled within my darkest fear
Some are uplifting while others fail
Can’t linger on any of them too long
All that’s fresh eventually turns stale
Wilting slowly as time begins to fade
Worried that one day it will disappear
Unable to remember who I used to be
Being shackled within my darkest fear

The Others
As I previously mentioned she was encountering "Them"
Figures that looked and sounded like children
Lately however, she's been witnessing these "Other" figures
These figures aren't as playful and innocent as the children
"The Others", as she calls them, are harassing and menacing her, usually in the evening
"The Others" are much taller, black shadows, resembling a person
Like the children, she can't make out their faces, but a negative, icy vibe is what she feels
Several times when "The Others" come...

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?

inside the bleak there is a nothingness that overcomes
shadows that grow large and envelope
it is fear, you know?
it swallows previous hopes
and incites unrest within me
it quietly brews then reaches my core
it's scarred terrain
I make my way through it slowly
trying to make sense of the unknown
I don't know why I get riled
I wish to put to an end to it quickly
what will fear teach me, how to doubt?
it seems like a meaningless feeling

PHOTO TRIGGER WARNING
Because you chose to ignore
Words written in bold
And do your own thing
You made my breasts unbearable
Unbeautiful

Help me with pain
You should be ashamed of yourself

I'm not you
I'm not you and you are not me 😞 to tell me that what, I got going on in my own body and mind and spiritual soul, is not what I have been dealing with for awhile now ain't cancer. FOR sure you don't have to take my words of what I say is the truth. For sure who are you to judge someone who's whole life, has been turned up side down having to deal with cancer. For like I've said I'm not you and you are not me, fighting for my life s second time in my own life time. 🙏 Yet you insist that you know me when you really don't bother to do your own research, for sure I don't have no...

Queen of Pain
Hear my prayers
Your claws in me
That deadly stare
I can't break free
Behind your smile
I met my fate
Held on trial
Love turned hate
My Queen of Pain
You stole my soul
Through black rain
You took control
Your claws in me
That deadly stare
I can't break free
Behind your smile
I met my fate
Held on trial
Love turned hate
My Queen of Pain
You stole my soul
Through black rain
You took control

A Plea Bargain while sitting in my Living Chair
This Plea Bargain Paper placed on top of the table waiting for my signatures..
Haa! I laugh.. Coz it me made me..
Can't you see I'm bunging resting on my living chair?..
They said no matter how you feel..
Get up!
Dress up!
Show up! And never Give up..
Oh well, it's a daily routine for most. It's also mine at the same time..
How I live..
I...

Reflection,
It's reciprocity's mirror
Of alternate realities
Which gives the glance that guarantees
To make this dear life clearer,
And the portal between the two
Is the wavelet surface ripple
Showing, like a participle,
What we should or should not do.
But if to this a man is blind
His soul will ever steep in hate
And his definition most unkind
Of what is, and, what is not great.
It's the golden rule to unbind
Great apes from an unkind fate!
Of alternate realities
Which gives the glance that guarantees
To make this dear life clearer,
And the portal between the two
Is the wavelet surface ripple
Showing, like a participle,
What we should or should not do.
But if to this a man is blind
His soul will ever steep in hate
And his definition most unkind
Of what is, and, what is not great.
It's the golden rule to unbind
Great apes from an unkind fate!

Real
A touch you can't see.
A feeling no one would believe.
An image that deceives.
A world of savages and kings.
Flies that keep spawning.
The lights flicker; haunting.
A child that remembers things,
That they have never seen.
A drone in the sky.
Twinkling; red and bright.
A God that watches day and night.
A mother bracing for the fight.
I swim in the ocean of the sky.
The sharks circling by.
Ignoring the joke of life.
To protect robots from the fight.
A child that might be real.
That God...
