Child
I was a child
the brunt of jokes
too young to understand the laughter
torn between humiliation and need for attention
I was a child
defenseless, confused
too young to understand my body’s reactions
torn between shame and need for affection
I was a child
hiding, unprotected
too young to understand the rage was not my fault
torn between fear and need for acceptance
I was a child
hurt, neglected
too young
torn
I was a child.
.

Harmony mix with Peace
It's another day here on earth 🌎 that I am here by myself in this atmosphere of no time only space. as I let the entire world slowly slip away from my mind and heart and soul. For AS I am looking around this very transition, is a welcome site to find out here in natures beauty, as it is surroundings me yet
I can relate to this day as I continue to pray. 🙏 Thanks again for another day in my life and world, 🌎 that I've been blessed to see another day on this earth. For sure I am grateful and thankful and blessed, to have this opportunity for a righteous blessing....

keeping Self in check
one of the most difficult...
...& most valuable...
lessons I've had to learn in healing
is not letting my own wounds
become someone else's damage
turning the sharp edge of my pain
...away
because emotional injury...
...is something we cannot undo
& apologies don't mend the ache
the scar will always remain
just as mine exist
so too will theirs
& what if...
mine was one strike too many...

Meaningful title inserted
it's two am
slept
maybe an hour
two uninterrupted dreamers
laying undisturbed
enter the muse
tangoing into the mind's eye
quickening the pace
flowing coffee
freshly brewed as scant offering
she summons me
wounds still fresh in the blistering sun
yet to scar over
still puss and scab
sorrows embrace of sadness grips me
still the door creaks, opened by her
drawing from the joint
gently she guides me
my smoke shadow, mere illusion
...

Primum Non Nocere (First, Do No Harm)
Fresh thoughts don't love a haughty place
much as plants prefer fertile dirt
for growth expansion into space
and not a venue of more hurt
like what austerity provides
in old tough love die hard disguise
stabbing like knives at marching ides
or boasting brazen at demise
when austerity strips away
all pretense of love in its hate
with..."go ahead and make my day"...
proving itself as not so great
since greatness must encourage growth,
as known by Hippocratic oath!

On Frozen Pond
On frozen pond a stone skips readily
a slippery slope to fall down steadily
the hand ever sleight holds the balance too tight
and we dance to the same sad medley
A metronome sanity salted with doom
memories of stories that ended too soon
collected at night to hide from the light
fear of the breaking forever to loom
The empirical evidence lied
and the hard truth will always collide
a mind slowly bends a means to an end
rest assured there is nowhere to hide
An explosion of pent up emotion
at a loss to fathom the...

Love from afar
Call me insane, I wear it well,
Insanely in love, it’s my secret spell.
Crazy to think I could be enough,
Yet here I am, in this whirlwind of love.
Demented dreams, I hold you tight,
Frantic thoughts consume my nights.
But you, my dear, deserve the sun,
It’s mad to think our fates are one.
You’re blind to the light you truly are,
Crazy to doubt you could go far.
Deranged, perhaps, but I still see,
A beauty in you that was always meant to be set free
Insanely in love, it’s my secret spell.
Crazy to think I could be enough,
Yet here I am, in this whirlwind of love.
Demented dreams, I hold you tight,
Frantic thoughts consume my nights.
But you, my dear, deserve the sun,
It’s mad to think our fates are one.
You’re blind to the light you truly are,
Crazy to doubt you could go far.
Deranged, perhaps, but I still see,
A beauty in you that was always meant to be set free

The balance of life
It's me again the story teller of unspoken words ✍️ For let's take a a minute to answer, that question 🤔 in the depth of just understanding, what is the balance of life. 🤨 For example for with everything having to deal with situations, that we shall go through in life there are somethings. That are involved in creating a solid attitude in other ways, to be able to navigate through the process of life. Now let's go even deeper than deep into the deepness of your mind and heart ❤️ For example sometimes we might have to learn, to agree or disagree with...

Why Do Recovering Alcoholics Love Diet Coke?
Mariah brings me carrots, and pasta, and money for thirty diet cokes, if I want.
She hugs me in her orange puffer coat, because she knows I have been scream crying
and bargaining with the universe, again. She’s been doing the same.
She grips me tightly and I cling to her, and we cast a spell that makes the five pm winter darkness
feel less like a life sentence.
Boys said they loved us and left. And that is the familiar knife we keep turning inside ourselves.
We give every twist a new name, but the hole looks the same.
I tell her that I hope they can...

First Real Heartbreak
There was a time I'd do anything for you; you had me hooked like a fish. I would’ve never left you and always stayed true. There’s no one I would’ve swam in the abyss with. But damn, you fucked up. I was obsessed when I first met you! Now that I think of it, it was the first time I ever fell in love at first sight. When you cussed me out and dismissed me as if I was a peasant from the 1800s, it didn’t just break my heart—you took a little of my soul that day. Do you remember those lottery numbers on that ticket when I won—what was it—25 or 35 dollars?

Crescendos
allow me to wipe
off the dust love
slide my fingers
over your keys
play you softly
pour light into
your darkness
ease the black
revive the white
bring back to life
the sound of your
soul & heal your
years old scars
create a private
silent symphony
divine harmony
in delicate notes
& elegant tones
from the depths
of despair to the
peaks of pleasure
in a slow crescendo
until you moan in music
off the dust love
slide my fingers
over your keys
play you softly
pour light into
your darkness
ease the black
revive the white
bring back to life
the sound of your
soul & heal your
years old scars
create a private
silent symphony
divine harmony
in delicate notes
& elegant tones
from the depths
of despair to the
peaks of pleasure
in a slow crescendo
until you moan in music

Redemption (Open Verse)
Intro:
You know,
I once heard this quote
And this quote said
“No matter how hard your heart is broken, the world doesn’t stop for your grief”
So no matter how fractured you are, you can’t stop going
The world doesn’t stop, so we continue to move with it
So, let me take a moment to get this off of my chest
Verse:
The thought constantly haunts my mind
Of how you up and left me during the darkest of times
I thought when we agreed, I had your back, you had mine
I put my heart on the line, just to get stabbed in the spine
...
