Skin Hunger
It's so long since I felt your touch.
How do we sleep in the same bed and not even graze each other?
You pushed me away,
With self-deprecating statements.
You tell me you are sorry.
As I suffer from your exile.
Till death we said.
How did we die?
Laying in this bed.
How do we sleep in the same bed and not even graze each other?
You pushed me away,
With self-deprecating statements.
You tell me you are sorry.
As I suffer from your exile.
Till death we said.
How did we die?
Laying in this bed.

Rose Vines
I was looking in my gold mirror.
Vines around it,rose bushes nearby.
With thorns,I did not know how or why.
The roses on the bushes are red.
Maybe if I had a prettier stem or better leaves.
And my needs feel like they haven't been read properly.
I always thought of myself as a flower.
But if I could be a red rose,I would have so much power.
Maybe if I did not have any thorns.
Or if I could remove my differences and horns.
Maybe if I dyed my petals red.
Would that make things better?
Alas,I hope...

Anchor
Sometimes you lose the anchor in your life
It’s sunk, disappeared at the bottom of the ocean
The most important person gone in a second
No air in your lungs, no wind in your sails
Your whole life changes
Just like that
It’s sunk, disappeared at the bottom of the ocean
The most important person gone in a second
No air in your lungs, no wind in your sails
Your whole life changes
Just like that

The dream is over
The years and the moments are all that remain
Thought it hurts there wont be more, I shouldn't complain
Pieces and fragments are still better than losing it all
Watching the cracks in my world as it all starts to fall
Should have and could haves abound and taunt me
And now the thoughts of what never could be
How clear its become only way too late
You told me how you felt and I refused to relate
Now its my turn to know how you felt for so long
And to see how ignoring it feels so wrong
Cant make ammends cuz we're past that point
And the...

Again
The sadness rushes over me like being caught in the undertow
As I look in the eyes of someone i barely know
My best friend, my partner, my other half, my soul is gone
I am stuck in a chamber of torture as I watch her move on
I scream internally as my heart dies a slow death
Unwilling to accept that our love has taken its last breath
All the moments I should have cherished play out in my mind
As she turns her back and leaves me behind
This coldness I feel from her is impossible to comprehend

War
Let's have conversation
Not a confrontation
But sadly we've been programmed
We are divided
And not united
The media and government has scammed
Our thoughts our minds
These trying times
Filled with hate speech crescendo
Chaotic commotion
Our religious devotion
Its all gone out the window
Lies are exposed
But our minds disposed
As we recklessly anchor in our stance
As we prepare
We are unaware
Of the impending circumstance ...
Not a confrontation
But sadly we've been programmed
We are divided
And not united
The media and government has scammed
Our thoughts our minds
These trying times
Filled with hate speech crescendo
Chaotic commotion
Our religious devotion
Its all gone out the window
Lies are exposed
But our minds disposed
As we recklessly anchor in our stance
As we prepare
We are unaware
Of the impending circumstance ...

things aren't always what they seem
that building on the
corner there...
...yes. that building
it uses to be a coffee
shop
a gym
a used book store
but despite intentions
each failed
failed
failed
and
failed
now it sits there:
empty
alone
abandoned
it is much like
love and the
human
heart
corner there...

sunflower
setting the tempo I begin to flow
gentle honey relieving some stress
reaching for the skies, I touch blue
releasing my sorrow into the atmosphere
picking up the joy of the natural world
doing what it was intended to do
flowers swaying in the wind
birds singing, springtime mating
they mate for life and so do I
my soulmate and I reuniting slowly
to love this way is to hurt
to laugh you must also cry
confronted with my heart I realize
my sincerity is altered
I get saddened then I refocus ...

The Bible, a savior and a broken heart!
On I wish I knew just what to say ,
To help u ease your pain.
Spending too much time alone
Can make a man insane.
I know that you are broken,
And I know just how u feel ...
I know that it will take some time,
Before u start to heal...
I've spent lots of hours,
All alone and torn apart.
I still have scars that bleed sometimes
Deep inside my heart.
I didn't want to meet you..
Didn't want to take a chance.
Wasn't looking for a new friend
Or even fake romance.
I seldom make much effort,
Cuz I don't...
To help u ease your pain.
Spending too much time alone
Can make a man insane.
I know that you are broken,
And I know just how u feel ...
I know that it will take some time,
Before u start to heal...
I've spent lots of hours,
All alone and torn apart.
I still have scars that bleed sometimes
Deep inside my heart.
I didn't want to meet you..
Didn't want to take a chance.
Wasn't looking for a new friend
Or even fake romance.
I seldom make much effort,
Cuz I don't...

Love
"....You don't know how much I love you."
If you acknowledge the fact that I don't know,
It is obvious that I cannot really appreciate it
Why don't you show me the really love.
If you acknowledge the fact that I don't know,
It is obvious that I cannot really appreciate it

Savior Dog
She cocks her head and stares,
offers a paw in the air,
The paw is a word, the stare
a question, when the liquor
is drunk unchilled, they will stare
In the coldness of covid,
the paws comforted, rescued
our souls, the whip of the tail
delighted, near and nudging,
ears keen to woes and worries
she flops down beside me, her
bottom up, and demands the rub,
near and nudging, she stares when
I stop, we healed when we stroked
petted bathed nuzzled fed
she...

The Day We Met
The deafening tears in the hallway
As whispers echo in the distance
Screams approaching the doorway
I'm fading out of existence
I hear the sound of a screeching door
As the nurse let my family in
The shuffling of shoes on the floor
As drool runs slowly down my chin
I feel the moisture from his tears
From a face I can't remember
I love you dad is all I hear
Sounds of his voice so familiar
Can't place where I know him from
My eyes still unable to open
But my heart is soothed with comfort
Memories coming...
As whispers echo in the distance
Screams approaching the doorway
I'm fading out of existence
I hear the sound of a screeching door
As the nurse let my family in
The shuffling of shoes on the floor
As drool runs slowly down my chin
I feel the moisture from his tears
From a face I can't remember
I love you dad is all I hear
Sounds of his voice so familiar
Can't place where I know him from
My eyes still unable to open
But my heart is soothed with comfort
Memories coming...
