she was the maker, he was her muse
a creative girl with everything to lose

she colored her canvas with her bleeding heart
she loved him and watched her world fall apart

she got her heart broken but kept a blank face
knowing that there are some mistakes you can't erase

she gave up her art, a lover betrayed
her pure white mind turned a darker shade.
And then there were seven.
Drink do not,
like a fish, but drink like a bird, with his beak.
Smoke do not, like a chimney, a  puff once in a way, you can occasionally pick.
Eat do not, like a pig,
Put on weight like an elee, you will n your knees will creak.

I am not asking you, to refrain from everything; or to be a health freak.
But also don't eat n drink, like there is no tomorrow,
moderations seek.
Moderations in all the spheres of life, will make you like a god-greek.

I'm just a silly girl
Daisies in my hair
Nails of pink
Sunkissed cheeks
***** feet
Twirling
Twirling
I open my eyes
Quick glance
I am an old woman
With pearls..

it sits on my lips
waiting to spill out
marks of old books
on my heart, black.
ink on the page
remember what you said
before in that old store
in New Orleans
a kiss
a cry

i'll miss
your smile
i loved
your eyes
such sweet
designs

i fell
you climbed
drop by
sometime

we kissed
we cried
i'll miss
your smile

this is
goodbye

When I came home
I greeted the silence that had become my friend

he's kind and tranquil
and wraps around me like a blanket
he won't leave me
because you took all the sound from my life
and now the quiet is all I have left
What if happiness is not only joy.
What if happiness is the struggle you've been through
for a cause known only to a few,
yet full of love and compassion.
What if...
What if happiness is a light
seen only by few.
Razor blade to skin
Droplets of crimson forming
Feeling in control
