Lady Desire
I give up on needing you
Cared about yourself
More than you cared to help
Yeah, yeah “all in this for myself”.
Anchored in, weighing me down
Yet I’m think I’m feeling something else
I forgot to swim
In a sea of gin.
Instead, I drunk it all!
Cheers! To everyone
A toast to sin
When the grandeur fades, I fall
Through the glaze you look great
All I wanted is one taste.
Bottle up all my devotion
To the brim, while seduction is a bonus.
Long wavy hair
Pretty blue eyes
Oh my...
Cared about yourself

Yet I’m think I’m feeling something else

Cheers! To everyone

All I wanted is one taste.

To the brim, while seduction is a bonus.

“A Letter To You”
He says he’s a changed man
Believing in the faith as she does.
He’s speaking all the right words now,
But somehow, she can’t seem to hold on to him.
She tells him she doesn’t want a relationship,
But maybe it’s her heart that no longer knows love.
Her guilt lingers in a purgatory state,
And each breath she inhales feels like a weight being added on
She writes about him, and the ink turns into longing,
Making her question if she’s still in love.
These feelings, a labyrinth of confusion,
She had never been here...
Believing in the faith as she does.
He’s speaking all the right words now,
But somehow, she can’t seem to hold on to him.
She tells him she doesn’t want a relationship,
But maybe it’s her heart that no longer knows love.
Her guilt lingers in a purgatory state,
And each breath she inhales feels like a weight being added on
She writes about him, and the ink turns into longing,
Making her question if she’s still in love.
These feelings, a labyrinth of confusion,
She had never been here...

Forget
Forget my smile
Forget my laugh
Forget my eyes
Forget all those things you said
You loved so much about me
Forget my utterly unexplainable devotion
To every little whim of yours
Because your happiness was all I wanted, all I needed
Your desires are what I lived to fulfill
Yet it wasn't enough
So please just forget
Everything about me
And hopefully one day I'll be able
To forget about you
Forget my laugh
Forget my eyes
Forget all those things you said
You loved so much about me
Forget my utterly unexplainable devotion
To every little whim of yours
Because your happiness was all I wanted, all I needed
Your desires are what I lived to fulfill
Yet it wasn't enough
So please just forget
Everything about me
And hopefully one day I'll be able
To forget about you

With u gone
With u gone seems like a nightmare. Feelings of worthlessness and lonely ness to much to bare. Feels like I am running out of air. Walls closing in so heavy and cold. The pain of u gone is to much to bare. The days drag on like an endless parade. Depression holding me down leaving me gasping for air. My light is dieing in side but can't see it from the outside. Wishing u was here. 2 years needs to already be here. So life can go on and I can be happy again.

Marriage Life
I'm use to spending my days in bad weather.
Hot, cold, sleet, snow, whiteouts it didn't matter.
Pushing myself to the limits because I hated to see you sick.
Who would have thought that the moments away would be the reason that we'd eventually split.
Thank God you made it through and now the kids are grown.
The only down fall is I'm sitting at this table eating breakfast all alone.
When just 10 years ago I was singing to a different tune.
I can't say I hate you because yes I understand you, even though sometimes I wish it wasn't true.
On the outside...
Hot, cold, sleet, snow, whiteouts it didn't matter.
Pushing myself to the limits because I hated to see you sick.
Who would have thought that the moments away would be the reason that we'd eventually split.
Thank God you made it through and now the kids are grown.
The only down fall is I'm sitting at this table eating breakfast all alone.

Technical KnockOut
I know it's been a minute since I've placed a call.
But I had to pick myself up from when you made me fall.
It's definitely your fault that now I'm afraid of heights.
Who would have thought then, not to let this love take flight.
Like a pitbull, you sure do got a bite.
Protecting my left, as you swing with your right.
Love taps, thinking who turned out the lights.
Counting out loud but hearing them as ABC's.
Thinking how did this girl get me on my knees.
There's no doubt that you won that bout.
Now I'm training my mind that I can live...

In the Shadow of Stars
When I looked up at the endless night,
Stars twinkled like secrets whispered low,
I asked the heavens, “Where’s the light?
If God is real, where did you go?”
In my heart a storm was brewing,
A tempest of love turned bitter and wild,
For in those dark moments I felt so alone,
With blood on my hands and a heart defiled.
You were my anchor; you were my grace,
But addiction wrapped you in chains of despair,
Each promise made now lost in the space—
Where laughter once danced hangs silence and air. ...

With blood on my hands and a heart defiled.

Each promise made now lost in the space—

Not Yet Swans
We were fooled last week
when so many things outside
were tipped in green
And though darkness is
your favorite color,
you disrobed from it
and kicked it under the bed
As you accepted Spring
to your bosom
as you shook your hair back
and offered your throat
to the kiss of something
renewing
all of your tips to pink
At first, I felt like a bird
fidgeting upon your window ledge
(edge of the bed)
I suffered the settling
for at least bread crumbs
Two pieces, ...

Where I Lie
As I look up at the night sky, I see exactly where I lie.
Right there in the darkness, far away from all the lights.
Where the void is vast, and not a twinkle in sight.
I shiver outside in the cold, wondering the how and the why.
Refusing to think, that this was all just a lie.
I guess I am where I am, solely alone on this night.
Not a conversation to be had, but the one within my mind.
Slightly afraid, to figure out what it is that I'll find.
But I remain optimistic, that there is still a you and I.
Right there in the darkness, far away from all the lights.
Where the void is vast, and not a twinkle in sight.
I shiver outside in the cold, wondering the how and the why.
Refusing to think, that this was all just a lie.
I guess I am where I am, solely alone on this night.
Not a conversation to be had, but the one within my mind.
Slightly afraid, to figure out what it is that I'll find.
But I remain optimistic, that there is still a you and I.

Baiting The Wind
She came as a cool autumn breeze, blowing about wildly and free.
Her presence touched every inch of me, from my head down to my feet.
She whispered in my ear, faint sounds that I could barely make out.
Other than the words I love you, that, I felt without a doubt.
She easily moved everything around me, from the tallest trees to the smallest blades of grass.
But it all stopped suddenly, so I sit here pondering and I ask,
"Where did my wind go? Why did it have to go by so fast?
I've contemplated plans of capture to perfection, baiting a kite for the next...

Alien
It’s a seed sprouting,
a cold plant, spreading like a misty
forget-me-not.
When the familiar becomes thin, veiled
without colour or substance.
Far-off, disconnected,
as if I had been transported, between
blinks, to a pale Andromedean planet
with unfathomable languages and unrecognisable shapes.
The grass is green, but
not. The sky is blue, but not. The sun shines hot
but with a stony face.
Everything orbits a glowing abyss ,
and distant events and...
a cold plant, spreading like a misty
forget-me-not.
When the familiar becomes thin, veiled
without colour or substance.
Far-off, disconnected,
as if I had been transported, between

Why have you forsaken me?
Dawn of our journey.
We found our path,
an embrace like a first station,
hope in every breath.
Together we walked facing fears
in the sacred spring.
The weight of the cross came
as doubt whispered in the wind.
Our love staggered under its heavy burden.
With each step, the road grew steeper,
yet, we bore the weight
through shared tears and laughter.
We stumbled and fell thrice
in moments of despair.
We rose, driven by the light in our eyes.
Giving strength to carry on and believe in us.
