She used to truly believe in love
Now love is like a poison
The word itself sometimes feels like Venom surging outward from the heart.

It's not easy feeling so different.
It hurts to feel so deeply
If Tears left Scars she'd be Unrecognizable

All she really wanted was something Genuine
She desired to be herself with Honesty
She always believed the names people called her, and it defined her.

When it was kind and sweet it was unfaithful
Where there was loyalty there were curse words and anger
When It was good it was great when it was bad it was a bottomless pit

Adrift, she felt Entirely alone,
Surrounded by people.
Cary J Dec 2019
In the midst it feels like falling
The mind flooded
Lungs tight and fears high
ANXIOUS are we?

Red velvet trigger
Bulls Eye View
Chase your own shadow
Pardon me, It's you.
Cary J Feb 2020
Seams rip as I continue to sew
Heart flutters but eyes see
You could be
The life of me.
Cary J Nov 2019
Looking back
Through shattered lenses
There's now a wall
Where once was fences
Belief system crumbles
Shards of mirror
Admit me wrong
My greatest fear.
Cary J May 2023
Distantly close
Lovingly held
Heart strings attached
Sunshine easy
The only obstacle,
         is your mind.
Cary J Jun 2020
Far better, I say,

To be a wild rose
              in the wind,
Than a cut rose of many
              in a flower shop.
Cary J Sep 2023
Balancing on your lifeline,
Afraid of  your consequences.
You created this
Chaos of you
How dare you share it with tender hearts.
Selfish tornado of men before you.
He
Cary J Feb 2020
He
Just a diagnosis away from crazy
Pandora box pills make for lazy

One glance as my safety net
One word as the scissors

I love you,
with Rose Colored Glasses
Cary J Mar 2020
I saw you
Flutter by in the sunlight
With ease by trees
No concern for the chaos

I sit breathlessly
Hope filled wishing
Confused
The power of.

Dip down to for a bit
Wise one
For fresh oxygen and
Say           Hello.
Cary J Dec 2019
I shall cease to be
If I keep up with your pace
Open up and do you hear me
Shallow graceless race.

Finish line is blury
I'm standing here nor there
I wave my arms for help my dear
Your gaze is unaware.
Cary J Mar 2022
Hello mind of mine
Story book kind mostly sometimes
Written by fools and follies
Beautiful and dangerous.

Escape is swifter than silence
Full of beasts and beauty
But the shallow shadows lurk

Ease me sweet vices
Guilt and all
Soothe me with subtlety
My awareness is jaded.

I love you, me
My keeper
Minder.
Cary J Feb 2020
Blue eyes hide lies
Soft lips utter threats

You used to be my cowboy,
But anger stole your soul.
Ice
Cary J Dec 2019
Ice
Vice in your words
Snake approach
Reins pulling heart strings
Wishes for changes

Feet frozen solid.
Cary J Sep 2020
One footprint, then another,
Step out from shadows
Sunshine bright
And Lifted by Passion.

Chaos reflection
Guided refraction
Love radiates
Embraced.
Cary J Oct 2019
The tears have dried up
Numbness sets in
Fighting the endless battle
To divide or conquer.

Tornado emotions
Anger hell bent
Abstract distracted mind
Brain completely flooded

Without hesitation
Secret and undeniable
Manipulate me wrong
The joys of the heart song
Cary J Nov 2019
Memories of fear
Slow roll of the engine
Compliments handed over
Creaks of doors

Immature excitement
Buzzed from the risk
Arrival and slow realization
A darkness lurks

Concerned smile
Tiger eyes and reflex
Swiftly save the bell
And make the journey.

Moved by resistance
Accepting of chances
Step foot into chaos
Sleep and face the future.

Tip toeing near the edge
Life lines cast
We were so close to danger
The lucky ones.
Cary J Feb 2020
Nile traveller
Silk sheet sleeper
Destined for kingdom
Against the current.

Subtle tomb whisperer
Carve your truth
Twenty tons hold you in
Abandon your excuses.

Pyramid keeper
Be moved to seek you
Or forever stand alone
With the kingdom all yours.
Cary J Dec 2019
Fire bright and crackle
Flame up and never change.
Dancing and forever
Burn, Move, Sway.

Distant darkness yerns for
Eye shine far away
Warm heart
Held
Cary J Nov 2019
Roladex of sins
Muddy water jump right in
Need to be desired
Come on sweetheart
Fan the fires.
Cary J Dec 2019
The weight of the world
The tiptoeing
Can we budge a bit
In our self saving?

Constant search
Never map knowing
If love is true
It's in our favour.
Cary J Jun 2020
Jump in heavy
Don't be a fool.
No treading water,
In the family pool.

Blood Runs Thick.
Love Runs Deeper.
Bold Matriarch
Trauma Keeper.
Cary J Dec 2019
Guns blazing red with evidence
Your discontent makes no sense
I'm left dry tears defenseless
Why did you build a trench here?

Kindly take a step left
I'll go to the right.
Just imagine the insight.
Cary J Apr 2020
Pandemonium
Step up to the podium
Shout out truths
Whispering greed's lies

Move to the same beat
Find your constitution
Resolution
Revolution
All for one.

Drum in hand
Swift eye shift
Skills on a shelf
And lucky.
Cary J Nov 2019
Frozen blades and visible exhale
Shift with the seasons
Fog lifts but turmoil sits
The wind lifts wings
The sun closes eyes
Welcome home
Cary J Feb 2020
Sinking like a stone..
.....
Down to your level..
.....
It's dark down here,

No wonder you sleep so well.
Cary J Nov 2019
Cracked porcelain
When you're a doll so fragile.
Move quick think fast
The sharp tongue is agile.

Find your way home
Using a trail of heart pieces.
Devise a plan fast
There's no map for this species.

Place your heart on a shelf,
Leave it there for safe keeping.
Life looks so bleak my dear,
Through eyes forever weeping.

Pass me the fix it kit
It's time to hide the cracks.
Exit the shelf space
Never look back
Cary J May 2022
He is the horizon
Smile the setting sun
Eyes
Silhouette
Whisky tobacco coffee gun.

Horse
Boots
He moves easy
Soft spurs
Heart so big
Trench coat
Gun smoke.

Held
Easy as the breeze,
Closed sunshine eyes
My cowboy
Cary J Feb 2020
Beautiful daisy darling
Standing tall
Moving with ease
So carelessly free,

Can I join you?
Cary J Nov 2019
Keep the seat for calamity
Deep deceit for comedy
Smile with bitter eyes
Considered complete Insanity.

Imagine a world where it shows
Your scars and lies
Weigh it on the scales
In the end that's all that matters.

You and your eyes
Transparency manifested
Can't give into to the why me
Brain completely interrupted
Cary J Nov 2019
He is like the rage of river
Rugged edge and fierce
My heart is used as a quiver
For his cozy insecurities.
Cary J Sep 2020
Hello again
Darling friend of mine
Golden eyes
My dear
After all these years,
I must say
There is no one
Quite like you.
Cary J Nov 2019
Dagger smile and ice stare
Clean the blade with my tears
Never always the same
Even after all these years

Put your sheild up
Use your words as ammunition
I'd walk away glady if I could
Bleeding heart in bad condition.

Love please
Cary J Dec 2019
Love leaps and bounds
Knows no limits
Even in an avalanche
Tumble down within it.

Shed a tear,
Dig your way out.
Breathe.
Cary J Dec 2019
Power for you
Tears for me
Control is yours
Mine is gone

Like constantly falling
Until I love you cushions
Hope resides where fear sleeps
I wish you could see
How you ruin me.
Cary J Nov 2019
Speak your truth
Call me crazy
Simple mind
I'll be your Daisy.
Cary J Apr 2020
Trance of dances
Lush slow motion
Green hues take over
Sprung.
Cary J Oct 2020
Raised by the Wolves
Green eyed
Move to the beat,
Wild side.

**** me Daisy
Wild child
Move to the beat,
Eyes wide.

Moon dance
Passion and dive in
Hey Bayou boy
Meet me at the Drive-In.
Yes
Cary J Sep 2020
Yes
Flourishing
Refresh
Desire
Adore
Long for
Want more.
