That's an easy win contest.

dark secrets
she used
the
sharp razor
to cut
words
into
her flesh,
hoping
that he
would read
and understand
her messages,
obeying them
this time,
PRIVATE
NO TOUCHING
NO TRESPASSING

In The Shadows...
I come to you only in whispers,
In shadows,
Once everyone has left the show -
Where chairs lay upon tables.
Only when the moon is glowing,
Am I showing -
Myself to you...
Allowing you in -
Where secrets hide.
In shadows,
Once everyone has left the show -
Where chairs lay upon tables.
Only when the moon is glowing,
Am I showing -
Myself to you...
Allowing you in -
Where secrets hide.

A Mystery Exposed Silently
The things she keeps secret
Are more telling than her reveals
For in every silent moment
Bleed the spills that she conceals
Deep auburn stains betray her passions scent
Drifting through the night air while she qietly slept
Holding tight to her pale bedroom glow
That smolders 'neath her evaporating flow
She feels in dark shadows she cannot show to me
So long their tentacles will never set her free
Cast from her distant rising red sun
Encasing a bright future in a lonely dunn
I wonder if she will expose to my starved...
Are more telling than her reveals
For in every silent moment
Bleed the spills that she conceals
Deep auburn stains betray her passions scent
Drifting through the night air while she qietly slept
Holding tight to her pale bedroom glow
That smolders 'neath her evaporating flow
She feels in dark shadows she cannot show to me
So long their tentacles will never set her free
Cast from her distant rising red sun
Encasing a bright future in a lonely dunn
I wonder if she will expose to my starved...

Words exchanged
falling dominoes
the sound
crushing
silently sullen
Visibly & hidden
decibels bouncing
from ears to eyes
Egos reign
in this teeter-totter
Push-me-pull
Tears fall
broken hearts
Quiet nights
& a din of
I DID NOTHING !!
Drinking poison
solidly waiting
for……….

They never come & now filled of a dark blue-green ink wither and hitch a ride with autumn leaves,...

Hidden Notes
The notes take me higher
lilting between the riffs
lingering in the refrain
Until I can touch your soul
skirting the long shadows at noon
shrinking away, then coming closer
I see you on my periphery looming large
The music binds us
a song between my heart and yours
a melody we share
The notes tell me you're mine
the riffs join my body and yours
I feel you deeply in the refrain
Deeper and deeper still
until my shadow and yours are one
Shrinking from the light
in the dark we...

maybe just a little humerus...
my family has a communal closet
crammed to the rafters with bones
everyone is afraid to touch it
worried if even one is dislodged
they'll all come tumbling out
nobody wants their dirty skeleton seen
but every year fewer members remain
not as many making new deposits
and I can't help but think
perhaps it's time for spring cleaning
just yank open that door
and let them all scatter as they fall
picking them up one by one
discussing their origin
maybe laying a ghost or two to rest
out of respect
for the moment I...

the secret word
Once exposed, a secret loses all its power.”―Ann Aguirre
it comes from deep within a shell,
pressed closely to the ear,
whose music no one else can tell
but he who holds it dear.
i hear it in the ripple of
the gently flowing spring:
a word of patience and of love
...

Haze
Potent as the silence
That lies between us
Desperate as the incense
Trying to mask this
Lingering bouquet
I wish it was flowers
Echoes slowly decay
Into the lingering hours
Slow my mind
Dream another time
The truth I find
Has no rhythm or rhyme
I'm slowly fading away
Find it harder to breathe
Smoke another and watch it fall away
Vision goes and I've nothing left to say
Slow my mind
Dream another dream
The truth I find
Is everything is always
As it seems!
Don't...

hidden inner strength
she had no idea I was watching
nudging her with my elbow from time to time
as was needed
that stab in the gut
redirecting her
silently
from within
all these years she’s called it intuition
and I’ve allowed it
because it suits me
she moves with purpose
though sometimes stumbling
always seeking balance
but it’s me shifting the weight
one foot
then the other
she handles the day to day
while I guide her
content to remain hidden
her loyal shadow
never far away
she navigates...

Illusions
The difference between you and me is quite simple.
It's just that what you call a lie,
I call it being in an illusion.
Sometimes you tend to keep people
Under an illusion just to make them happy
By telling them the things that they wish to hear.
But I guess, keeping the ones you love
or perhaps anyone for that matter in an illusion,
Can be the best and the worst thing you can
ever do to them.
And again, It's ironic for me to say
I hate illusions when I love the one where
I force myself to be in, close to you.
It's just that what you call a lie,
I call it being in an illusion.
Sometimes you tend to keep people
Under an illusion just to make them happy
By telling them the things that they wish to hear.
But I guess, keeping the ones you love
or perhaps anyone for that matter in an illusion,
Can be the best and the worst thing you can
ever do to them.
And again, It's ironic for me to say
I hate illusions when I love the one where
I force myself to be in, close to you.
