WHEN DREAMS COME TRUE
"Tell me about your dream," he said.
"The one that makes you smile."
He stared with eyes so brown and big,
And sat to listen for a while.
"Well, sweet angel, this one starts
In corners dark and scary.
Mommy needed time apart
From what she saw unclearly."
"Monsters stole my heart, you see,
They took away my life.
With nothing left to hope and dream,
I fell onto this knife."
"Circumstances drifted through
That brought me to my drowning.
Your sister's eyes, so bright and blue,
Had saw me only frowning."
"Empty, still, and broken down;
My lonely heart was slacking.
Never was there a soul around
To keep this branch from snapping."
"Then, came one amazing day,
When April showers dried.
And there stood LIFE; no longer gray.
I gasped, took a breath, and cried."
"Blissful notions filled my mind.
They brought me to my feet.
With this passion by my side,
I realized... I have everything I need."
(Written for my two amazing and beautiful children. Inspired by my newest love.) :0~

"Love Again"
This life alone can be a mystery.
Every step is writing history.
The men in my life were never meant to be.
Choosing and cruising is only safety.
***But over and over I fall,
***Crushing and losing it all.
Sunbeams, under my pillow.
Sweet dreams, beneath my skin.
Call me, crazy forever.
Beacuase this, time I will win.
Now I have found the perfect company.
Glowing and growing moves so easily.
This time I know that he will come to me.
Forever and ever oh, so faithfully.
***But over and over I fall,
***Crushing and losing it all.
Sunbeams, under my pillow.
Sweet dreams, beneath my skin.
Call me, crazy forever.
Beacause this, time I will win.
(Bridge)
Sunbeams, under my pillow.
Sweet dreams, beneath my skin.
Call me, crazy forever.
Because this, time I will win.
***Over and over and over I fall,
***Always losing it all.
BAD DREAMS
Your love is vacant
My love is true
Your heart is cold
Now mine is too
Although I'm not mad
The anguish still grows
It kills me inside
But nobody knows
The true pain I feel
Is a life without you
A life worth nothing
And nothing I can do
But none of that matters
So much does it hurt
You've cut open my wrists
And watched as they spurt
From my deep veins
Of which they feed
No longer sharing
Or spreading seeds
Get used to this life
And hope that it's short
But never like mine
And more a court
With judgement it ends
The torture it seems
But in my life there's never
An end to bad dreams
Peace of mind sweeps over me
Glancing from afar
Dripping hope and wonder
Upon my folded arms
Floating beauty nears again
Brushing lips of faith
Across my ear with whispers
Of pure, transcending ways
Sprite of glory follows close
Knocking at my door
I open just a hand or two
Accepting, wanting more
Blazing pleasure backs aways
Trying to perceive
If my arms are open wide
Enough for this to be
And then my eyes are saddened
Swelled and closed again
Forever knowing deeply
That this will never end
I am currently tearing my house apart looking for my notebook that I keep all of my poetry in because I know of a poem that I have written and I don't have it posted on my page. I would really like for you all to read it. It's about the many faces that we put on for each situation that we come upon in life and around different people. I used animal imagery in every stanza, and it is one of my more complex poems that took a lot of thought and contemplation to write. Once I find it (darn faeries) I will post it and have you all come check it out. :0~
about me
I am a single mom of two amazing children, I have a passion for writing poetry, and I am in a vulnerable transiton period of my life. There are so many things in this world that intrigue me, I just can't get enough. Until a couple months ago I spent most of my time trying to find things that made me happy. Now I've learned to find happiness in the things that I already have and this has opened an entirely new world for me. I am ALLOWING life to happen more and MAKING it happen less. So here I am, a new day, a new adventure. And the one thing I always remind myself is that everything happens for a reason...
Lonely Night
(blog entry)
I'm sitting, still
A lonely night
Known all too well
This is my fight
The time does pass
My feelings grow
For good, for bad?
I'll never know
So much to see
Enough to do
It won't stop me
From loving you
I choose to fall
You choos...

Faery
(blog entry)
With flashing wings
The faint voice sings
As she stares into my eyes.
My thoughts start pacing,
My heart starts racing,
And then away she flies.
I turn my head
With silent dread
And there she is.
She has long, wavy hair
And h...

Rage Of Darkness
(blog entry)
Glooming in dangerous skies
Are beings with crazy minds --
Killer clowns with blackened tears
Scream chaos at deafened ears.
Stingers pierce the burning flesh
As yellow jackets cover the chest.
Prowlinog knights on horses ride
For pr...

Forever Broken
(blog entry)
There is a place without a touch
Without a name and without life
My safe my clutch my game my strife
This place I know as only home
It brings me pain it brings me love
My cove my loan my gain my glove
A place I need to bring to end...

Stage
(blog entry)
Grey skies roll in
Surrounding the sun.
-- Final bows are humbled.
Drowning the light
With raindrops of Autumn.
-- Satin curtains are drawn.
Breezes of freshness
Chill the air.
-- The audience waits.
Sending leaves of...

Do you ever wonder about the man on the moon? What he thinks...what he sees...what he think's about what he sees? We can only view the world from our own two eyes, but those of us with failing eye sight don't have the opportunity to see the world like many others. Instead we are blind. We are blind to the opportunity to succeed in life, we are blind to the open doors provided by life. And in the mean time we are forced to walk through walls. If one chooses a path to walk that leads to walls, what would one do if for once they could see the open door? I, as one, should choose to walk through it. But one's only experience is walking through walls. Even if one could stand in front of the open door and view the other side or step in front of the wall and not be able to see the other side, I, as one, would attempt to walk through the wall. Not afraid to try something new, but daring enough to walk without knowing, makes one's life an open road. Which leaves many walls and many choices. Thus one is not afraid of blindness because the moon, if asked, would show the world. But merely one walks the path, that not many choose, because of faith in the moon. For life is blind to one, as one is blind to life.
Can you ever feel sadness because you are truly hurt or touched by something? Or is it always out of self-pitty or grief? When you think of things you relate them to your own life and thoughts. So how can you not be selfish about what you say and do, what you think and feel? When you take a point and time, where there's only one person in your life, that when you look at them makes you smile out of true happiness, what do you do when you know they'll never return the same smile? We are taught as children that our heart holds what we feel. But honestly, so does every other part of our body. The heart holds the blood and pumps the blood that keeps us alive. And that is all that it holds, but without it we would die and wouldn't be able to feel at all. Our minds are what gives us feelings, and that's where we store them. I used to say that I wish I could rip out my heart and put it in someones hand, dripping with blood, so that maybe, just once, they could see how I felt. And I'm sure I'll never stop saying it. But instead of my heart, my brain seems a bit more appropriate. Of course we don't think of a broken brain as we do a broken heart, because that's not what we were taught. But that's how it is, and that's how I prefer to see it.
I'm sitting, still
A lonely night
Known all too well
This is my fight
The time does pass
My feelings grow
For good, for bad?
I'll never know
So much to see
Enough to do
It won't stop me
From loving you
I choose to fall
You choose to rise
Come one, come all
Let's compromise
Don't be afraid
Just let me know
This life we've made
How will it grow?
I've waited long
To hear your word
So play your song
It will be heard
The truth is that
Which I do seek
It's the exact
Thing that I need
So look into
That heart you hold
There's very few
Made out of gold
So much to see
Enough to do
It won't stop me
From loving you
I'm sitting, still
A lonely night
Known all to well
This is my fight
