hand in the dark
You told me I was a bad bitch
offered me a bear hug
and couldn't know how perfect
your words hit my heart
There's a darkness lingering inside
and I fear to sleep
for fear of drowning in the dark
when no one is watching
Sometimes I forgot
that I am loved
In my darkest moments
the weakness in me
wants to let go of the life raft
because I've lost the thread
of whatever life
I was meant to be holding onto
because surely it's not this one
where fear and panic
threaten to break me...
offered me a bear hug
and couldn't know how perfect
your words hit my heart
There's a darkness lingering inside
and I fear to sleep
for fear of drowning in the dark
when no one is watching
Sometimes I forgot
that I am loved
In my darkest moments
the weakness in me
wants to let go of the life raft
because I've lost the thread
of whatever life
I was meant to be holding onto
because surely it's not this one
where fear and panic
threaten to break me...

Alternate Reality—Heaven
Today I remembered
In the park strumming a guitar
Arm wrestling (I lost of course)
Napping
And later
Water fights
Scents of roses
Sitting side by side watching people
All on a sunny September day
With someone I once knew
In the park strumming a guitar
Arm wrestling (I lost of course)
Napping
And later
Water fights
Scents of roses
Sitting side by side watching people
All on a sunny September day
With someone I once knew

Mr. Orange
Mr. Orange”
Starlight, and nothing rhymes with your name—
And the sky does not seem the same
Since the day you came.
I felt so much older yesterday, now I am young.
And there is a word on the tip of my tongue
I do not think has been spoken before.
But this word is my only stock and store.
A foreign call into a dream half-forgot
Is rising to the surface of what I know not:
Like a voice that burns through a song
Where only the sweetest of voices belong.
I never knew there were flowers in the snow
And the birdsong that...
Starlight, and nothing rhymes with your name—
And the sky does not seem the same
Since the day you came.
I felt so much older yesterday, now I am young.
And there is a word on the tip of my tongue
I do not think has been spoken before.
But this word is my only stock and store.
A foreign call into a dream half-forgot
Is rising to the surface of what I know not:
Like a voice that burns through a song
Where only the sweetest of voices belong.
I never knew there were flowers in the snow
And the birdsong that...

AS THE TIDES TURN
As the tides turn into a new world order for yesterday I was healthy and strong, yet that has changed as my body has been attack by different stages of cancer. For now I no longer will have to just work through the process of learning the new, but how much I can improve on the quality of my own life itself as I am going through these trying times. For example as I continue to work with my cancer treatments, as there has been a few ups and downs I have my good days and my bad days. Yet I refuse to lost hope that one day I will get better for my life, for there is no cure for stage 4 cancer...

Fragile Like a Bomb
You're like the tinkling
Of a fairy voice,
Leaving bits of pixie dust
Scattered wherever you walk,
With a tinge of Alice in Wonderland
Mad Hatter delusions.
Glazed eyes
And doped up smiles
With cynical jokes
To cover the melancholy
That consumes you
When you swallow
The doc's endless prescriptions.
"I'm alive, I'm alive!"
Your gleeful presence
Seems to declare.
Somewhere hidden
In the thoughtful lyrics
On your playlist
And in the blank space
Of your dissociation, ...
Of a fairy voice,
Leaving bits of pixie dust
Scattered wherever you walk,
With a tinge of Alice in Wonderland
Mad Hatter delusions.
Glazed eyes
And doped up smiles
With cynical jokes
To cover the melancholy
That consumes you
When you swallow
The doc's endless prescriptions.
"I'm alive, I'm alive!"
Your gleeful presence
Seems to declare.
Somewhere hidden
In the thoughtful lyrics
On your playlist
And in the blank space
Of your dissociation, ...

Black Ink Promises
Your presence sometimes becomes
Something of a distant thought,
A long gone childhood friend
Lost to the years of our grown up distress,
But no, how could I ever forget?
Springing up most haphazardly,
We observe one other with shaking heads,
Only arriving when a storm is brewing
Or just beginning to settle into dust...
Tell me, is it this black ink promise that we trust?
Engraved in our skin forever,
These words are a stubborn tie
Bonding us even in silence;
I fear that you no longer see me,
As if I am...
Something of a distant thought,
A long gone childhood friend
Lost to the years of our grown up distress,
But no, how could I ever forget?
Springing up most haphazardly,
We observe one other with shaking heads,
Only arriving when a storm is brewing
Or just beginning to settle into dust...
Tell me, is it this black ink promise that we trust?
Engraved in our skin forever,
These words are a stubborn tie
Bonding us even in silence;
I fear that you no longer see me,
As if I am...

Fire in the Snow
Contrasts—
White snow, darkening dusky sky
Roaring flame, laughing friends
Blistering melting heat, freezing silent snow
Dancing prancing flickering flame,
Frigid chunk of ice
Warm hands playing with fire,
Cold wool-swaddled toes
Red, orange and yellow tongues
Black & white backdrop of blanketed trees
Friends and fire,
With drinks in a wintry wonderland
views of the Sound and trees,
hints of coyote calls
Perfect peaceful blend
this frozen December evening
White snow, darkening dusky sky
Roaring flame, laughing friends
Blistering melting heat, freezing silent snow
Dancing prancing flickering flame,
Frigid chunk of ice
Warm hands playing with fire,
Cold wool-swaddled toes
Red, orange and yellow tongues
Black & white backdrop of blanketed trees
Friends and fire,
With drinks in a wintry wonderland
views of the Sound and trees,
hints of coyote calls
Perfect peaceful blend
this frozen December evening

New year
I was brave for once
And now I am so proud
Of everything I've achieved
For letting myself speak out
For growing and changing
And now I can say without a doubt
Just be yourself and live out loud!
No clue who I am
Or where I'm meant to be
But I feel like I'm on the road
On the road to becoming happy
I found friendship and love
It took me so long to see
That I decide my fate, not them, me
So the year ends
And to tell you the truth
I don't think I'm ready
I'm going to get a whole new
year with...
And now I am so proud
Of everything I've achieved
For letting myself speak out
For growing and changing
And now I can say without a doubt
Just be yourself and live out loud!
No clue who I am
Or where I'm meant to be
But I feel like I'm on the road
On the road to becoming happy
I found friendship and love
It took me so long to see
That I decide my fate, not them, me
So the year ends
And to tell you the truth
I don't think I'm ready
I'm going to get a whole new
year with...

Being Truly Happy
Write about this night
This truly wonderful
Emotional roller-coaster
I've never
cried so much
Tears of happiness of joy
Of love that being
A parent
Can bring
Have you
Ever in your life
Spent hours
Of unadulterated
Laughter
Tears filling buckets
Having nine one one
On speed dial
Heart ready to burst
Never having
Knowing such love
Just a look is all
It took
One look
Crazy right
I've always thought
Impossible
Until
Tonight
We filled those buckets ...

Vigil
I’ll stay with you
In the silence
I’ll wait with you
Through the depths of night
When you’re ready
If you’re ready
only then we’ll break this quiet
Slowly
Or never
What will be will be
So I’ll simply wait
And think of you
In the silence
I’ll wait with you
Through the depths of night
When you’re ready
If you’re ready
only then we’ll break this quiet
Slowly
Or never
What will be will be
So I’ll simply wait
And think of you

Tis the season of giving
an open hand
to show you are always held
smiles
to lift spirits
hugs
you are not alone
may you find peace
love and shelter
in the beautiful
small gestures
and know
you are loved
an open hand
to show you are always held
smiles
to lift spirits
hugs
you are not alone
may you find peace
love and shelter
in the beautiful
small gestures
and know
you are loved
