She Writes
She can’t let go
Of the one that makes her sad
Because he used to be
The only one making her happy

Letting go of him
Seems impossible
It will be one of the hardest things
She could ever think to do

What’s truely harder though
Is holding on to him
When deep down she knows
He will never love her back

Goodbyes always hurt the most
When the book is closed
Before she had a chance
To read the final chapter

I Am
 Mar 2018 F
She Writes
I am a butterfly
I was once small and unappealing
I have grown to be
beautiful and awe inspiring

I am a lotus
I was once held back
by a muddy past
I have blossomed into a delicate flower

I am a Phoenix
I have lived to be burned
Only to rise from the ashes
Stronger, smarter, and more adept

My Star
 Mar 2018 F
She Writes
You remind me of a star
So beautiful,
But so dangerous,
I can only love you from afar

If I try to get close
You burn me alive
But without you
My sky would be empty

In the light it’s easy to pretend
But when the dark comes
it’s clear;
You light up my world

When darkness falls again
There you are
A constant reminder
Of what will never be

Stars
 Mar 2018 F
She Writes
I’ve found comfort in knowing
No matter where you are
The many miles between
We lie under the same stars

Sometimes I try to guess
which one you’d see
If you were looking up at them
Same as me

I look to the skies
When I’m lost and blue
Trying to find myself
But all I see is you

what do you see when you look to the stars
Do you see me, or just mercury and mars

You are the poem I could never bear to write.

My Soul

She Writes
My soul is the night sky;
and you are the stars that light up my darkness

PCOS
 Mar 2018 F
She Writes
It’s invisible
But I see it every day
They say there’s no cure
It is here to stay

The symptoms are manageable
You’ll be just Fine
Just exercise more
And be careful when you dine

There’s nothing left to prescribe
The doctors are at a loss
Taking over my body
PCOS has become the boss

Managing symptoms has become my struggle
I don’t know how much more I can juggle

Falling
 Mar 2018 F
She Writes
It’s hard not to fall
Though I’m strong
The second you call
It doesn’t take long

Your voice so seductive and calm
Lulling me into a trance
Im like clay in your palm
Soft spoken word making my heart dance

I’d give anything to taste you
Feel your breath on every inch of me
In my ear whisper all you’d do
I’d be anything you want me to be

Unfortunately you’ll never know
Just how deep my feelings go

Sun and Moon
 Mar 2018 F
She Writes
If I am the sun
You are the moon
My waves of tears
Are controlled by you

When I’m wide awake
In the middle of night
You are the reason
I can’t sleep tight

Your presence is suffocating
Rather in dreams or awake
My heart and soul
Is yours to take

Be gentle with me lover
Before I’m ready it’s over

Feeling Lost
 Mar 2018 F
She Writes
Though the saying goes
with age comes wisdom
As the years pass
I feel as lost as ever

Stumbling through life
Following my heart
Trying to do what’s right
Still fearing the unknown
