Anchor
Sheila Greene May 2020
Anchor

Lifes a restless sea
Waves forever rolling
Tossing against shores
Storms **** Sunshine
Birth and death

Bareboat at sea
Weathering its moods
Tossed and withered
Exhausted endless battles
Losing never winning

The boat leaks through time
Land never blooms
Sea begins laughing
For victories sure to win
Hopeless begins drowning

Unexpectedly Sunshine breaks clouds
Horizons mirage
Dare hope
Drifts through sea
Hope springing life

No boat, ship in calm sea floats
Sunlight surrounded
Warm, happy being
Embracing pull, gravity
Shining Love, compassion

My anchor forever becomes
Keeps the sea calm, at bay
Happiness at last
Victories won, safety waits
Heart and souls have joined
Rainbows anchor.

We all need an anchor in the storms of life.

Texas Chainsaw
Sheila Greene May 2020
Cotton has a plantation,
It’s home in central Texas.
It might be your cremation.
Don’t drive up in your Lexus.

In the barn he persecutes.
Devices of mad torture.
Chainsaws, meat hook executes,
Diced and spilt into quarters.

The Bloodbath we fascinate,
Victims face he has gotten.
Oh my, he does dominate.
****** face here’s some Cotten.
This was based on my trip to Florida last week because I’m convinced Waze wanted to **** us.  It took down this back Texas road that looked like Leatherfaces home.  It’s done in Ae Freislighe, an Irish Quatrain.

Amber
Sheila Greene May 2020
Asked, questioned
can I love
My Amber

When, what
point I realized
I wanted

How, whence
genetic girl
so accepting be

Who, why
how could I not?
Open-minded

Judge, absolve
Don't cast stones
Everyone lives in glass houses.

We should all be so accepting of each other.

Bold Colours
Sheila Greene May 2020
I do
like bold colours
On you...
the taste of those lips
Hand under your jaw
Squeezing
just enough
to feel my fingers
Opening
those wide eyes
watching
your iris shine
the dark void of pupils draws
Draws me deeper
into your dark
Wishing they weren’t just words
I want to consume you
Play in your shadow
bask in your light
Just know it is real
not just a maybe
Be consumed by me
Let yourself go in it
Wade down into the warm waters
Feeling suspended in time, space
surrounded by warm things
warm hands... eyes...mouth
Bold, colorful kiss

© sd greene  11/24/17
What can I say, I felt consumed.

Pink Vision
Sheila Greene May 2020
Is it weird?
Pink vison
Eyes sparkle
Wicked smile
I don't just see it
I feel it
A pony of energy
Hot mess mane
Cotten candy stain
Little miss evil
Oh wait that's me
Alter ego
My Pinkie Pie
See something deeper
Down inside
We see you
always there
searching
waiting
lurking
To jump out
Not hide

Written for a very unique and bold friend, my friend Z.

Quiet Forest
Sheila Greene May 2020
Your first steps
In gray fog
Quiet forest echoes
Eerily still
Life reflecting
Scared to death

© sd greene  6/21/17
Walking a lone in the woods at dawn, a little fog allows my imagination to run wild.

Chocolate
Sheila Greene May 2020
Tasting milky chocolate.
Joy, happiness begins.
My taste buds favorite!
I can’t wait, let’s eat again.

My fear of poor exercise.
The chocolate calls my name.
I try to forget it.
I am fatter, eat again.

Regret, regret chocolate.
Sad and sobbing, it’s aching.
Like a sad old portrait.
Therefore the sweetest tasting.
I love to eat and struggle with my weight.  Chocolate is my down fall on one hand and my savior on the other.

Abyss
Sheila Greene May 2020
Numbness
In the quiet
Rattling peace
Confusion in chaos
Created by me

Hollow heart
Deadness within
It's not real pain
It's mental
Yet unbearably insane

Seeking punishment
Well deserved
It's ok
Turn your back
It's well earned

Quailing nightmare
Find no peace
Hurt me to ****
The beast
To make it cease.

Time's the enemy
For I suffer
Deeping hole
Widening abyss
Where I can't find my lover

© sd greene 9/19/17
We all have bad days, we are human.  Some of us have a daily struggle with the hollowness left by the monster within.

Little Girl Dreams
Sheila Greene May 2020
When I was a little girl
          with a goofy grin and pigtails,
   daydreamed about being Queen.
A Queen that controlled everything,
          Love, life, happiness
The illusion was the Queen
    discovering control isn't a thing.
When I was a little girl I often drifted off into my daydreams.  The physical world around me stopped and my mental world would erupt.  Enjoy!

Crazy In My Eyes
Sheila Greene May 2020
see crazy
in my eyes
on my skin
your blood
I wallow in.

hot body
rubbing mine so close
whispers come
crawling
"Don't touch."

our heat mingled
glistening dew
rolls
licked
intoxicating fever
consumes.

dripping lips
loves first kiss
or the last
swallowing in.

a womb
giving and taking away
wet
ready for the ****

© sd greene  8/14/17
I have lots of crazy in my eyes.  It stems from the desire to be consumed and the madness from within when you can not obtain it.

Sickened
Sheila Greene May 2020
What I see sickens me
Judged on size
It feels unfair
Skin color, gender,
Ones not as good me
it's so sad to see
Even though this I don't believe
Speak up, no one listens
Your just a kid
What I see, think, feel
Doesn't matter
On no I'm mad
I'm shattered
This isn't how I thought the world was
In one month my view is ruined
Written for my son realizing life isn’t always fair or pretty.

Anger, Hate, Rage
Sheila Greene May 2020
Anger, hate, rage
Bleeding black
Numb heart
Great hole
Engulfing my soul

Sadness, death, decay
Hardness remains
Heavy breathing
Slowing pulse
Alone, shallow grave

Calm, peace, hope
Ray of light
Breaks night
Like sun on dew
Evaporates the black

saved a soul
I am back.

We all have a darkness hidden inside of us.

Vulnerable Girl
Sheila Greene May 2020
Fingers in your long Blond hair,
Looking into Green eyes,
Kissing Luscious lips.
Watching you smile.

Tender heart Softly reflecting,
Glazing in your Hazel eyes,
Unsure of Honest acceptance,
Wanting to believe.

My vulnerable **** girl,
Hoping my Crazy is real,
Keep looking in my Loving eyes,
Needing to believe.

A promise in my Green eyes,
Accepting your Hidden sides,
Understanding you are Beautifully one,
My eyes seeing all your beauty,
Through and through.

© sd greene 5/12/17
We all should experience love like this.

Coming Sun
Sheila Greene May 2020
Coming Sun
New dawn to light
It's a glyph
Fresh look upon life

Morning dew
Glistening skin
Wet, hard
Again and again

Teary sweet
**** or sour
Tasting days
Through the haze
smiling for me
I'm amazed.

© sd greene  9/3/17
I can be optimistic too.

Pink Shards
Sheila Greene May 2020
Carefully arranging your
glistening pink shards
To create a masterpiece
Of colorful glass
decorating my soul

All the shattered pieces you loathe in your self
Shine brightly to me
I hang them up for all the world to see
We have nothing to hide

But most of all, I want to cut you open
Peeling *Layer by layer
Revealing the secrets of you
That you have yet to whisper to anyone
And only in pain can you reveal

Wrap them in fine silk
Place them in a vault*
Stashed ** safely where only we can find
I'll never let them go

Hidden ****** secrets, the pain
The parts we hide
Trust so binding
Powerful
Overwhelming
It's love
But to free it for the world to see
A rare gem indeed.
We all are guilty of hiding something from the world.  It's a special kind of love and admiration for someone to see through all the things we don't like about us for fear of persecution.
