These chains are heavy
These chains are heavy
My demons have awoken
Rum is my poison
My heart is broken.....
Tired is my heart heavy weights on my eyes
The poison has taken hold of me
I love my sons I love my boys
The poison is corrupting me
There's no way out.....
This life is not for me, nor am I for life
These chains are heavy
I cannot breathe, I'm choking
Soon these chains will lift and an end to the strife
These chains are...
My demons have awoken
Rum is my poison
My heart is broken.....
Tired is my heart heavy weights on my eyes
The poison has taken hold of me
I love my sons I love my boys
The poison is corrupting me
There's no way out.....
This life is not for me, nor am I for life
These chains are heavy
I cannot breathe, I'm choking
Soon these chains will lift and an end to the strife
These chains are...

Friends Forever :)
She smiled and looked at the girl holding her hand out, “Friends forever, right?” The other girl laughed and grabbed her hand, “Of course! Friends forever and ever!” After that day, the two girls were always together. You could never find one without the other. That was until one found someone new. She had to walk to school herself today. She didn’t know why. Everyday since she could remember they always walked to school together. But for some reason today was different. She walked towards the school and saw something she never thought she would. Her best friend, the girl she’d do anything...

Snip and cut
All was perfect in Martha's world. At forty-five, already a grandmother, she was glowing.
A nice house in a quiet suberb, a man who loved her dearly, going on since their High School days. Totally happy and content as she was working on her project for presentation at the sewing club in three weeks time. Her confection was a tight fitting black dress suitable for a cocktail evening or dinner at their favorite french restaurant, Chez Pierre.
Tight fitting, she was using Anaconda Foil Knit, medium weight fabric with some spandex. Also straps and just a bit of cleavage....

I Finally “met” you but the (Real you)
You were everything I dreamed of (Illusion of Disguise). Your words filled me with the words of love that I thought you meant ( Lies upon those lips). Your hunger of desire for me, my how much I really wanted you in between my thighs. ( fulfill my sexual hunger). When you first said “ I love you” ( I loathe you). When you said trust me (betray her)…Do you know why I write in this form of what was you and me? Because during that time…that voice in the back of my mind that contradicted every word that you spoke, every time that we connected, every time that we touched, every time that we made...

Feilecan
Féileacán
Mariposa; two winged pairs taking flight,
Farfalla with symmetry, sprite needs love!
Borboleta sings, howling through the night,
Schmetterling’s sweet cry, a lone single dove.
Papillon sprayed rouge, glorious to sight,
Butterfly lady, swooping high above.
Mariposa; lone wolf gliding above,
Farfalla, restless. Needing, feeling flight!
Borboleta crushed, a fairy formed dove,
Schmetterling nymph girl seeks blood of life night.
Papillon a life desolate of love,
Butterfly sucking man’s life juice; dark sight.

Severing Ties
I thought about calling you
Thought about everything from what I would say if you were to answer the phone and if you didn’t
Hell I even thought about how long the text would be if I even decided to send it
This was until I though about what the outcome would be
To be in your presence although would be amazing
I am not sure if I would want to be lied too…again
How many times must a person say that they don’t want you before you actually believe them?
In reality I would say once but when in your feelings it is really multiple
And from there you have to...

The Open Forest
The Open Forest
The Bird on a Grapevine enters a heart
Not the heart of a man or beast, but a forest
With trees that grow taller the more they sway with the stormy winds of The Overthinker
Their roots however are stuck in the deepest vein of this leafy heart, Consciousness
The trees are beautiful peculiar things, unfazed by whatever state The Open Forest is in, as they grow taller and taller, and sink deeper and deeper into Consciousness
They are invaders that have never let go of The Open Forest since... The Awakening
But that is for another time as...

“You’re worth saving.
And nothing worth saving is beyond saving.
I would never give up on you.”
“They all do eventually. You will too.”
“Let me prove to you that I am different.”
Read…
I had sewn forever and paid the price.
There was so much of myself to sacrifice.
I lost the same battle I had never won
Now every wound I spent on you is undone
Bleeding again, bleeding every single one,
And I cannot breathe; anymore
That is the price of such a war.
I had broken my own heart to prove ...

(...)
(…)
What do I know about being alone?
Now suddenly I dream on my own.
I haven’t moved a thing as if perhaps you’ve died.
And I can’t even imagine how many times I’ve cried,
Looking at all these treasures that you left on the shelf.
There is just nothing here to remind me of myself.
Flowers wilted long ago that you kept for my sake.
There’s nothing left here but dry petals for me to take:
Pathways to shadows that make your face in my path
You left your smoke ring and your razor on the lip of the bath
And it kills me to recall...

It is not difficult for me to put a poetry collection together.
I have never had any help.
The new collection, titled (…), will be available on January 1st of 2022. I will be publishing it on Amazon as a Kindle and as a paperback and hardcover edition.
The piece contains conceptual photography taken by none other than myself.
This was the challenge.
You see, I could not find a photographer. Well…not only could I not find one…I couldn’t afford one. So I consulted my computer...
