when will it come?
I fight against succumbing to impatience
for a hard display
of solid buoyant evidence
of glad recovery from my stroke’s
dulling of my limbs
that threatens my composure every day
They are, I feel,
when valuating morning comes
too slight, too far away.
And I am daily left unsatisfied and drained
And so I ask, “How long will I refrain,
sustain my will,
in light of this unsubtle bleakening,
from giving in
and then admitting that I am undone?”.

As a woman
As a woman who has been blessed with her own strength and courage and perseverance, where does your true strength come from, deep within you as you go through somethings that are out of your own control. As a woman that has been blessed, with the ability to adapt to your situations always, figuring a way out to make life better for those around you. 💗 FOR since the beginning of time, as a strong woman it was only you and your faith that held the family truly together as one. As a woman that sometimes, have to wear a mask as a disguise, to hide your weeping eyes when it seems...

17 of 30
you don't think about it much
not when everything still hurts
what happens after
you focus on the pain
bruises...burns...& fractures
on getting through that day
& the next
trying to understand what went wrong
was it you...or them
or a toxic combination
but when wounds stop aching
& shadows fall back
horizon looking a little brighter
that's when possibility presents itself
& your head tips to one side
in silent contemplation

Fallow
Consider the field that stretches out ahead;
you say that nothing has grown there for years
and that might be true,
but NOTHING has been wasted.
Not time,
not energy,
not opportunity.
The land that has been left to stand,
fallow,
is full of fertile soil
and rich with promise for the future.
Let me help you pull out the weeds
and plant the field well.
Nurture it with love and care;
water and light and good food.
Have patience and hope,
then wait to see what is going to grow.

Severed
It’s a new day, so my heart rises like the sun
It’s another moment of peace, before the yearning
Now, clouds have covered morning light
Just as you invade the crevices of my psyche
Shall I turn away? Shall I close the blinds?
I’m blinded by the rays that pierce the lace lined curtains… ruby red, like my lips you’ve come to know
I am swept away when your skin touches mine
I am the lost treasure of the sea, before it sinks
And I am indeed falling
Drowning in your arms
And begging to breathe
I thought it was the air from your...

It's a sad day
It's me again the story teller of unspoken words ✍️ it's a sad day that there will not be a DUP no more after 5-12-2025 😔 For me I truly enjoyed my time on the site, for sure when I signed up for DUP I can say it's been great for me as it let me express my thoughts and insight and imagination for during my time on here I've meet a lot of good people's that I admired as they encourage me as they inspire me to be able to express my thoughts and talents of unspoken words ✍️ for being here was like family among friends who were writers and artists sometimes being...

Die Alone
You're not mine
you never were
you'll be better off alone
You're not fine
you've always hurt
I will let you die alone
(Chorus)
There's no excuse for what you did
you never wanted my feelings
you tried to kill me from within
but you failed and now I'm healing
because...
You're not mine
you never were
you'll be better off alone
You're not fine
you've always hurt
I will let you die alone
-Chorus-
I bet you're ashamed to tell me
ashamed to tell me where you've...
you never were
you'll be better off alone

Beheaded Poem
I beheaded a poem
For you... my rhyme
I cleaned its insides
I took off its eyes
For not having to bear
The humidity of the tears
I blew the letters up...
I threw the letters down
I washed the poem clean
I've let the scales dry
So I could do a helmet
To avoid beheading...
For you... my rhyme

if you look hard enough...
you spend your whole life with someone
think you know them
but what percentage of your belief is real
& how much...illusion
created perhaps...
by the damage unintentionally inflicted
& it's the only remaining thing still coloring your view
all because...they hurt you
& now it's all you're willing to remember
it was a hard lesson...for sure
seeing from her side of reality
that kinda vision is painful
coming to terms with my own bias
my own fallible humanity
my mother was buttoned down so tight ...

Confessions of a Dying Reality
This fear I hold onto so dear,
Blocks my eyes I can't see the road clear,
I feel it but I know it ain't mine,
Generations of conviction made it shine.
Struggling to create my own domain,
Travelling into the unknown,
Receiving codes hard to decipher,
I'm piercing my heart with a sharp knife.
These dreams make me question my identity,
I feel like a demon among men,
I feel like an angel in my own den,
I've realized i do not exist.
What i perceive is illusory,
With judgements that...
