Letting go
I've summoned evil and good to be able to detach from what seems to be a shared unbreakable bond that only brings me hurt and sorrow...
I've come to the realization that this link wont break, it's part of something bigger than human pride or self worth. Something beyond comprehension from us, mere mortals.
It is the moment, and up to me to see things differently in order to move on and put a soothing balm over these wounds...
I am choosing to take a leap, to tell you that i'm sorry, to send you love, where ever you are and be at peace with everything we...

Dear God
Dear God, I'm sorry
I was late with my
prayers today.
I was watching the
beautiful sunrise streaming
across the bay.
It wasn't my intention
to ignore you.
I simply didn't think
it was due.
Dear God, I didn't mean
to not bow my head in silence.
I was mending my fence
with wood you provided.
Of course I'm very grateful
for gifts you give to me.
You made my soft green
pastures beautifully.
In case I haven't told you
how much I love you so,
It seems I was caught up ...

THE QUEST
THE QUEST
All of my life, I've been on a quest
to discover just who it is I might be,
earnestly searching, day after day,
so desperate to recognize the true me.
I've felt moments of utter fulfillment
and then moments I couldn't go on,
knowing to save my heart and my soul,
I'd have to endure I'd have to be strong.
Others around me seemed lost too
I'd often fear I might be on my own,
then someone would me some help
and remind me I wasn't all alone.
I've wanted so much to be happy,
to know what it was to feel...

Match Game
Calling someone a loser... is the worst
No matter what they have or have not done,
For sundry are the errors done in fun
Or when precautions are reversed.
That half wit that you always see
Is searching for it's other half
Which cannot be found on a graph,
Formulated...pessimistically.
So when they do delinquent things
Quickly check your vexation there
And keep eternal the hope that springs
From giving half wits half a care,
On the off chance that some nurturings
Bloom one full wit between the pair!

confused walk
Confusing walk
It was the longest street in the world shops on each side
selling salami and cheese depending on the shop, the same product
had a different name proclaiming to be the best.
Today the shops are empty, save for a few dogs, people are tired
of salami and cheese, you can’t fool them with a fancy name hinting
they are Italian made in Livorno; what a fraud!
In shops, there were cheese parties for mice sitting pretty nibbling
the stray dog and I were not invited; we kept on walking in the hope
of finding a butcher selling hamburger...

It’s raining here…
It’s raining here.
Images through my windshield
dance in contorted deformations.
An overwhelming symphony of
greying obscurities is at hand.
My surroundings melt.
I fall with the raindrops
into melancholy.
The leaves on the trees feel the
weight of my sorrow, and wilt.
A kindred weeping.
The fog of war will never clear.
As the hourglass runs out of sand.
Too often hard the feelings felt.
By far the worst is guilt.
Images through my windshield
dance in contorted deformations.
An overwhelming symphony of
greying obscurities is at hand.
My surroundings melt.
I fall with the raindrops
into melancholy.
The leaves on the trees feel the
weight of my sorrow, and wilt.
A kindred weeping.
The fog of war will never clear.
As the hourglass runs out of sand.
Too often hard the feelings felt.
By far the worst is guilt.

CHOOSE ME
CHOOSE ME
The fact is, I wanted you, desired you, longed for you I needed more, craved more. But, you weren't available or interested.
I am accustomed to being left. Not ever being enough. Quite use to being ignored, broken down and questioning my self worth. Alas, I've always recovered and picked myself up, sometimes just to fall yet again.
I'm the type of girl you'd cut off but then think about for years to come randomly. Though I may not be what you want, you'll still search for me in every other woman you encounter.
I'm the type of girl that comes in...

And I Still Can't Get the Loctite Off My Fingers
We stayed up at night
talking everything under the sun
and beyond the horizon
traded tears
laughed so hard
I thought I'd come undone
Then I did
You were gone
Picking up the pieces
took so long it became a hobby
You can probably still find traces
of me stuck in the rug
like glitter
Can never get rid of that shit
Now, I lie awake and wonder
glued back together as I am
about the balance of strength
and fragility
how you see me in the light
that sneaks through...
talking everything under the sun
and beyond the horizon
traded tears
laughed so hard
I thought I'd come undone
Then I did
You were gone
Picking up the pieces
took so long it became a hobby
You can probably still find traces
of me stuck in the rug
like glitter
Can never get rid of that shit
Now, I lie awake and wonder
glued back together as I am
about the balance of strength
and fragility
how you see me in the light
that sneaks through...

Added bonus
I never felt I picked wrong
Even with all that went sideways
Your heart and soul
That"s what I fell in love with
And your forever beauty
That is an added bonus
Even with all that went sideways
Your heart and soul
That"s what I fell in love with
And your forever beauty
That is an added bonus

a poem for the young
A poem for the young
The house on top of the hill
Has no garden
A landslide sent it to the bottom
Lemon trees and roses in a maze
The house on the top of the hill
Has no roof
A storm sent it down the hill
And boys broke the windows.
The house on the top of the hill
Patiently waits for another landslide
So, it can join the missing parts
At the bottom of the hill.
The house on top of the hill
Has no garden
A landslide sent it to the bottom
Lemon trees and roses in a maze
The house on the top of the hill
Has no roof
A storm sent it down the hill
And boys broke the windows.
The house on the top of the hill
Patiently waits for another landslide
So, it can join the missing parts
At the bottom of the hill.

bridge to nowhere
Bridge to nowhere
I paddled down a narrow river
flanked by elm trees like paddling in a tunnel
A new road stopped the rivers flow
underground, the river streamed
Perhaps, if I carry my canoe to the other side
the river will continue as before
Not so.
By the side of the road sat two elderly men
“What are you doing here,” I asked?
“We wait for a bridge to be built, “they said
Answering in unison.
Have you waited long?
Yes, we have.
But what is the point with a bridge
If there is no river underneath?
The men...
