Hello moon
Yellow moon
Hanging in the sky
Goodbye moon
Gone so soon
I wish you'd tell me why

Hello Moon
Yellow Moon
Please don't go away
Your pale gold light
Makes my night
Seem a little more like day
Once across my wrist
Twice across my thigh
3 more plus--
Are you ready to die?

Sorry sweetheart,
No caffeine tonight.

Cold silent toes
Vacated mind
How much more insanity lies?
The pain is there
The spark lights and dims
You keep it, still.
Observation time friends.

You said you'd be there
I should have known--
A feather light lie
worth my weight in gold.
Little and white
A ghost by the side.

Your stare never ceases,
But your mouth never moves.
Suffocating silence
The candle blows
One last glance, disinterest true
Who'd have thought--
You'd walk right through?

Empty mugs.
Bliss is gone.

Tell me where I went wrong.
....where to turn?

You are good enough
Have a winning attitude
Possess a strong will
As you reach for the altitude
Always believe in yourself
Go forward with the time at hand
Show them that you have the fire
That my friends is the master plan

Who am I?
I am the abandoned building
along the vacant street
I am the whirlwind in a storm
of regret and intoxication
I am the calm of a hushed whisper,
The goose bumps and raised hair
I am a nurturing stigma,
The thing good enough to
Never really be enough
I am the bite of a plump lip,
The shared dreams on leather seats
I am the crying in the dead of night
because you want it to be over but
you just *know
when it's gone,
you will have nothing left
I am the drug of choice,
The brown liquid to wash it down
The shake of hands you blame on nerves
I am the elephant in the room,
Do you remember me?
Take a minute from rubbing the salt in,
Do you see me? Do you hear me?
Family, blood..it's never been enough.
I strive to matter to someone that isn't obligated to care
I dream of bus rides and religion
While mourn the boy I made feel wasn't enough
But he was the one to say it back.
Third time's the charm,
And if it doesn't happen it wasn't meant to be
Take a minute from his busy life,
Does he remember the way I cared?
He doesn't want the best for me
No one could conceive the possibility
To ever believe that
If it wasn't meant to be,
Just know,
I will always love you
Was fun, I enjoyed the poems
I read
Hope to read some more
real soon

Seema
Holding onto my wine glass tight
He was dancing with her tonight
His gaze locked onto mine
But in his arms was another shine
My thoughts cursed him of his arrogance
Such a user of beauty and innocence
"That's it!! I can't take this any longer"
For what I thought of my love being stronger
It was nothing then a lustful devil in disguise
Coordinating thoughts, playing his game wise
As I turned to go, he grabbed me by my waist
And on the dance floor showed his delicate taste
I was his that's what he whispered in my ears
Leaning over to brush off my tears
Held me tight as if I was running away
I still remember his words until today
He fulfilled his promises and made me his
We are blessed with two beautiful kids
As I wait his flight arrival at this airport
Smiling away, remembering those days we fought
Everytime letting me win with the charms he bought
We got tied into a knot on this very day
Time just few and its our twentieth anniversary today...
