In life we battle
ourselves...
in hope of
hiding our pain
We dance to the
song...
bittersweet refrain.

I found strength by surviving,
Mental Abuse
Physical Abuse
many forms in-between
Abandonment
Prostitution
Drug Use
Above all else; I am the secure
Woman I was always meant to be.

Moments in life
I've grappled
between
mind
and body
often surfing the
abyss
between life
and death
cold and cunning
I am
wounded
comfortless
ill-fated
unabatingly
waiting for my
moment in
the sun.

I walk down a crowded street,
I feel cold and alone
amongst many I am nothing,
in a World of plenty
If I were to enter public places,
people refuse to see me
I am a woman of depth and full of
possibility ..
tossed away like trash, to
unforgiving streets
Just once would like to be seen .. for the
person I have become,
not for the broken Woman
who's past has come undone
I walk along the crowded city streets,
It's clear to me now, that what once
was a lost soul amongst millions of others,
has at last been found.

The bilateral sided face
displaced from time
Sequestered
Half hostile
while the other half
discontented
My mind unlocks
recollections
strewn emotions
faded photographs
Shattered fragments
of my life
Alarmed by unknown visions
reflections of me
Conflict that comes from depths of mind
dusty colours are all I find ...
Struggling to find a singular reflection
To seek my journey, to an inner peace cry
that radiates the mind’s ever piercing eye
Could I be afraid to dig deep too
find the courage, only to reap ...
The goodness residing for love to stay
enriching my life; no longer grey.

When I was a child,
I was less then complete,
amidst turmoil, and cared for
by a mother who was weak.
A child without a father
to call my own, no siblings
to speak of, just me alone.
Then the angry teenager
forever stuck on my own,
alcohol and drugs were
my only comfort ..
a diversion from an
abusive atmosphere.
A step-father who beat
mother and me, not a
man, but a monster that
was my world .. you see
An alternate reality would
have been better than the struggle
endured freeing myself, from my
step-father's aberrant embrace,
Can I now lay down in a coffin, so cold to hide from the monster,
who has taken captive my Soul.

Like a lion, they anticipate
for trusting,
undoubting prey
to light upon their domain to
twist and victimize you
until you believe
what has been said
truth, love and kindness.
words of evil
trust-less faith
has distorted this
world, robbing the
life from it
the very being of it's soul
has been buried beneath
the cries of pain of centuries old
for they watch sit and wait
to see how much further we go...
how much more destruction
we are being waited on
by watchers of time
just to see what we do
with our time
here on Earth.

Tranquil
waters
mirror
cloud
infested
skies
Oceans
serenade
in
deep
dark
tones
While
trees
whisper
sacred
lullabies

I symbolize honesty, non-conformity above all
I am liberated from loss of innocence.

Conquer fear
fall about
break silence
rid yourself
of doubt
Burn cancerous cells,
melt away the hate inside,
amidst life's struggles
I'll attempt not to hide
Breathe the wind
admire distant stars
Imagine an existence
free of desolation
Cure my distaste
handle with care
listen closely
Receive the same
Make a promise
and keep it, don't
be a fool...
show some compassion
this is my number
one rule
Learn the secrets
read between lines
thirst for authenticity
look for signs
Give thanks for
cleansing rains
finish a lover's sentence
change up the game
Heal old wounds
jump into the
ring of fire,
I am ready to
conquer my life's
puzzle, piece
by piece ...
no matter how negative or positive it may be.
