I see you see me
Familiar, unforgetting
Like a child coming home
Every fault in my crack
Every line in my detail
I see me beautiful

White screen
****
Brightness steals my word
To write, spill my words farce
I forgot
Technology took
them from me
Too many log ins
Too many passwords
Something..love
Mostly hate.
I do not belong here in this techno gate.
Next time I will write them and be straight.


Ministry songs
in my head

I don't title

Helping angry
Angry gets angrier
Leave angry be
Sulk in your sorrow trying to help
Leave angry be

Tea
I've spent centuries
in this agony
My body changes
but time stays still

All this time I've passed
waiting to be found
like a bird inside a cage,
my feet chained to this ground

I can't keep my monsters at bay
but I can't run away


In the eye of each soul
all I see is fear
and my own still whispers
"I'm not from here"

By now I thought
I'd have more power
But at the end of each day
"it" still devours

Even though there's love in my heart
I still feel like falling apart


Each fight feels like
dark mirrors inside a maze
and all I see in this reflection
is my own empty gaze

My mind is light years
away from this place
Still the only thing that saves me
is your warm embrace

And when it feels like I have no choice
I recognize your voice


I'm so tired of this fight
But your love still keeps me warm
Together, we'll win this battle
Together, we'll breathe through the storm.
I don't like history repeating itself
So I'm starting over
I just hope you'll be a part of my future

I fell warm and fuzzy in my ears
Favorite music blaring
Drowning out this intolerable world
Body moves fluidly
Every beat more and more
Bringing me up
Now warm and fuzzy inside
Eyes closed
Feeling music
Moving in sync with the beat
Happy inside
I don't hear outside
The music inside my soul

Rain on the roof
Wind
House roaring
Talking on phone with my love
Music
Dancing freely
Creating smiles
Giggling uncontrollably
Skin touching
Reaching for my favorite things
Eyes seeing deep into me
  Past the scars, past the hurt
Seeing me
