Your Own World
Cold
Cold sunrise
Creeping in your eyes
Voices echo
The past
Desperate, rebel, runaway
Pushing and trying
Miles from trusting anyone
Isolation makes you feel
Better in your own world
Cold sunrise
Creeping in your eyes
Voices echo
The past
Desperate, rebel, runaway
Pushing and trying
Miles from trusting anyone
Isolation makes you feel
Better in your own world

Water Ritual
it’s just a simple glass of water,
nothing special, not really
I beg for its healing anyway;
I will it to slide down my throat
a wide and roaring tempest,
to wash away the sticky grief
lodged deep within my chest;
to quench my thirst for peace
in these long and dark hours;
to become the hideous monster,
that chases away the weariness
sewn to my bones’ marrow;
to transform the salt and sorrow
that slides in fresh tracks
down cheeks tired of smiling
and pretending it’s all okay
because it has to be
nothing special, not really
I beg for its healing anyway;
I will it to slide down my throat
a wide and roaring tempest,
to wash away the sticky grief
lodged deep within my chest;
to quench my thirst for peace
in these long and dark hours;
to become the hideous monster,
that chases away the weariness
sewn to my bones’ marrow;
to transform the salt and sorrow
that slides in fresh tracks
down cheeks tired of smiling
and pretending it’s all okay
because it has to be

My Thought for Today: Hardening a C-PTSD Heart
Learning how to harden my heart is an internal battle I’d rather not wage when I have so many others that need attention, but self preservation in the face of danger, perceived or otherwise, tells me that this cracked exterior of the vessel that holds the way I love may need this type of protecting right now.
Trauma will do that. And it doesn’t have to be the blatant kind of trauma that I’ve lived through and I’m working at overcoming. It’s the little but not so little things that get buried but rear their ugly head along this winding road of healing.
It’s the dismissal...

The Shipwrecked Heart
He had emptied an ocean for her.
No seashells
No gold
Just salt and bones.
No seashells
No gold

Anchoring Eyes
My soul sky is cobalt tonight.
Dormant thoughts now clamoring
for life.
Love.
So heart throbbing and heart thrashing,
heart pounding and then shattering.
Worth the joyous battering.
Love.
Awakening the hearts sleepy trance.
Feel the rapture of the soul wind.
Swirling with sweet vengeance.
To end is to begin.
Love
I dive deep into his anchoring eyes.
Turquoise with some veins of hazel.
What he said
He was able.
Able to inhabit my core,
forever more.
Dormant thoughts now clamoring
for life.
Love.
So heart throbbing and heart thrashing,
heart pounding and then shattering.
Worth the joyous battering.
Love.
Awakening the hearts sleepy trance.
Feel the rapture of the soul wind.
Swirling with sweet vengeance.
To end is to begin.
Love
I dive deep into his anchoring eyes.
Turquoise with some veins of hazel.
What he said
He was able.
Able to inhabit my core,
forever more.

Red Light
Girls chance, dark nights
Men glance, red lights
Walk by, car stop
Eye spy, knee drop
Cheap thrill, money seek
Bitter pill, turn cheek
Nights out, morning comes
Doubts shout, pimp runs
Men glance, red lights
Walk by, car stop
Eye spy, knee drop
Cheap thrill, money seek
Bitter pill, turn cheek
Nights out, morning comes
Doubts shout, pimp runs

Beginning To End
I can't stop this fall
Boulders are chasing me down
Our pain is avalanching all around
Hearts are bleeding shattering our sound
I never thought that I'ld feel like this
Less more ever sit down and write this
How I miss your touch and how I miss your kiss
The softness of your body as I pull you through the mist
Cuddled, swaddled, even though we both resist you're in my arms
It's not about astrology, although we're astrological and love astral charm
We're eternal boo because we existed before there was
We brought...

I’ve Sent…
10,000 post cards
Each sent back to me
stamped Return to Sender
I would
If I could
But I no longer
Know
Her
Each sent back to me
stamped Return to Sender
I would
If I could
But I no longer
Know

Fall into my breath
Hey now where did you go?
Thought I was holding you?
All you are is air darling
Fall into my breath and chase away my fears only don't leave me so hollow
I sit back and look at this thing I've become
Am I really so twisted or are these the things you've filled me up with
But trusting what you say
I truly am not worth a thing.
Thought I was holding you?
All you are is air darling
Fall into my breath and chase away my fears only don't leave me so hollow

But trusting what you say
I truly am not worth a thing.

Echoes Of You
Your ghost hides in the corners of our wrinkled sheets,
reaching out transparent hands to grasp at my foolishness.
I've never enjoyed swimming naked in guilt's sea;
it leaves me dripping remorse.
It appears death's formidable grip can trump a full hand
of indifference every time.
The mundane, repetitious days of our existence
held me in perspective as one
too ambivalent to shake his disembodied shoulders.
The scent of your demise, to me, seemed innocuous—
fleeting and unable to bloom.
But flowers, I've discovered,...
reaching out transparent hands to grasp at my foolishness.
I've never enjoyed swimming naked in guilt's sea;
it leaves me dripping remorse.
It appears death's formidable grip can trump a full hand
of indifference every time.
The mundane, repetitious days of our existence
held me in perspective as one
too ambivalent to shake his disembodied shoulders.
The scent of your demise, to me, seemed innocuous—
fleeting and unable to bloom.
But flowers, I've discovered,...

My Eternal Flame
I’m reaching out for you
Feel my warmth come through
Screaming out your name
My love is driving me insane
Walking in the rain
Feel the touch of my face
You’re not here – to dry my tears away
How can I make you see
I am the other half
That reflects your eyes
Weren't you the love of my life?
My heart will never find peace
I always feel that something’s missing
Something’s missing....
My eternal flame
Feel my warmth come through
Screaming out your name
My love is driving me insane
Walking in the rain
Feel the touch of my face
You’re not here – to dry my tears away
How can I make you see
I am the other half
That reflects your eyes
Weren't you the love of my life?
My heart will never find peace
I always feel that something’s missing
Something’s missing....
My eternal flame

What if...
You will be my what if
The question that haunts my mind
Even as the years go by
Ill never leave you behind
The connection we have
Is like nothing Ive ever felt
Or probably will again
But these are the cards Ive been dealt
You will linger in my heart
A dull ache will always remain
Feelings of true peace
That are wrapped up in the pain
We finally found each other
But it seems it was too late
In another life will I find you in time?
Or is this just our fate?
To forever seek our missing...
