A drenched, rugged mutt pads wearily along the side of the freeway.

He lifts his hooded face to reveal a young, bearded man- walking lopsidedly and ***** underneath the blacken sky. Who opened her bursting ***** to let down a million tiny droplets soaking him head to toe, and hes's got nowhere to go.

His face like an angel; still young, maybe only eighteen
with deep golden, chestnut eyes and long untameable
ash tinted hair. He'll never see himself as more than a ****** up, cold hearted ******* whose broken many and ultimately has paid his hell,  
by breaking himself.

The truth, couldn't be any farther than that.

Headphones stringing (both ears), from the inside of his semi-dry clothing  to a cell phone which resides inside his left jean pocket.
A musician, a drummer, he examines each song meticulously- every detail, analyzed- memorized.  And so, he keeps himself sane
counting the beats in his head, when he's walking through the rain.

*I'm grateful for whatever life may bring our way, as long as you're by my side on my dying day.
just about a friend. Some people we feel so much love for, so much appreciation because they have such a light in their eyes. He's one of these people for me. He's always been, I love that light I see in his eyes- no matter how dim sometimes... it's always there.

'tis inexplainable, that foreign "beyond words" sensation- the incomplete isolation.

embody the human experience with me;
let's start the evolution of a revolution
that we all so desperately need

I pass streets crowded constantly with thousands of unfamiliar faces

walk the broken, cracking sidewalks to all the odd & end little places

upon the dark grey sludge that layers the sullen, dreary old city streets

still in mind the valleys and forests of evergreen

beneath the aged chalk stained, blackboard styled sky

amid the most royalest blue of seas

reel in your life full of anchors
for we could simply sail miles,
days suspended above the earths varying tides of infinity and eternity

find a paradise no human soul
would care to believe

amongst uncharted territory
we may construct our own society

sipping honey from one anothers souls
lets escape

we have our world to see
Just thoughts
witchy woman Aug 2013
He sits

In his sun-washed study

Easel in hand

&

Reminds himself



"Without tragedy;

There is no


Creativity"






And uses




The back of his hand




To fight






His dampened eyes.

you are the flame
I'd burn myself with

witchy woman Jul 2013
I haven't written in forever
Due to lack of motivation
I let my sickness get the best of me
And steal my inspiration


pathetic


I will tell you all something, that many do not know
For the last little while I was up and out
All over the city of T.O.

I crashed at a friends and sped right up
He gave me a shot to stay low
I don't remember what happened all week
But on Friday it was home to go

I spent today recovering
Sickness rocking me from within
My whole ******* body aches
From the core of my bones to my paper thin skin

For someone so young, merely the age of 18
It's weird to see the tracks on my arms, showing where I've been
I know my daddy must've saw
For he knows exactly what I've seen

Addiction *****
Don't ******* try to glamourize it
So yeah that was my week that just passed i feel like I look like **** but I'm gonna be good soon. I really tried to write last week but idk if any made it though the spotty ****** wifi

My body stuck awake, with all his beautiful words painted in my head from yesterday. It's 5 am, and I still don't have a word to say; an old-fashioned romance, we remain all but intimate. The saccharine serenity of his skin against mine, the brush of a kiss we share time to time. It all seems so much sweeter, with time passing beneath us

And,
everyday it feels
just a little
easier to breathe

a load off my chest
an unfamiliar ease.


Your chiselled-to-perfection smile chips away
the cheap, peeling paint
of my tired displays

in the ocean of my eye you are no such castaway
I can do my best to promise you I'll never just walk away


You told me you wanted to fly
(I've always been scared of heights)

But instead of giving me wings,
you taught me how to take flight.
hmmmmm
witchy woman Jun 2013
I honestly need to learn how to control my temper
My ******* mouth and my words tainted with anger
A fast mouth, and sharp tongue
And I realize our relationship
Sometimes
Is like a tiger ******* a rabbit
Prepare for the claws baby
witchy woman Dec 2013
In & out
Hearts collide and pound
You've opened my door
For things I never imagined
I could indulge in before
You play at my gates; as we let time escape
Just run away with me babe
Let's just get high & drive  
Into dawn, dusk or the night sky

We are but the typical teenage dream
Living life on the edge
Day by day
Sets our damaged hearts at ease
For I could never imagine living a life more blessed
And happier moments than these; for they are simply timeless.
witchy woman Dec 2013
Oh my ever fragile bird
Do not fret your lovely mind
Your hearts wandering over mine  
Your words are in my head

Do not quiver your brow
Or bite your lip
Over the things we have
Not yet said

                         And how could I ever not need you?

With this connection so rare
Almost in describable
But I'll try my best
If you can bear
                          
               You are the crisp clean breeze of January

                             You are the smell of May at dusk
                                
                              You warm me with your July sun

                                    You fill me with October rush  


And please believe me when I say
We'll walk through a forest on a perfect summer day
Through the warmth, recite the Decemberists
And play me your beautiful tunes

                                                & baby stay
                                       up
                    with
me
                                                
                                  In the wake of

An  
                  early
                                      June
                                                       moon.
witchy woman Oct 2015
too much

           too soon.

  



        She burnt the trees-
and spent the moon


                        now her little
                    life is full of gloom



    too much,

too soon.

Disassociation
some turn to it for recreation
but I like to feel like me
I hate watching the world
play out like a movie on the big screen

The entire world
I can only see
I can't experience
the joy of life around me

I can't untie
untangle, unwind
all the strings tightly wrapped
around my poor little mind

I don't know what to do or say
I can't even bring myself to cry

Maybe I'm just the needy type
to feel a warm body
his heartbeat
against my spine
Ugh
witchy woman Sep 2014
I hate that I love you,



for who you are.

Because to yourself,




you're always true.

And it's just so painful,




to always love you.
hes my bestfriend. I just want him to be ok. but he doesnt feel the same way, never has. never will.
and it hurts.
witchy woman Sep 2014
Your still drowning in my mind,
           you do this on purpose.

                                                Calamity on the surface,

waves of comm
                             uni
                                      cation dead

Floating in the ocean of my head

                                        Among the graveyard of ships,
       and all left for dead.
                                                                   Lies all of the things

that we left
                                    unsaid.
I am the ocean, I am the sea, there is world inside of me.
witchy woman Apr 2014
you are more than you think to me
we need not swim endlessly throughout this sea
but inside, let us float by
as the waters abide
and if these waves allow it,
I'll arrive at your side.

Anchor your weary heart, and allow your soul to breathe.

*you will find your way,
through the waters
using my voice,
a sirenesque song
to guide you
all night long
xo. from far away seas my heart reaches out to his sad little soul.

My
            Arms


   Legs


Hands
                      Can

  Show

              You

                           Where

I've                    Been


Not
    


            Only

     Where


The
                   Blade


Pressed

                 Close




But


               Where

The

I fall,

   too fast                

I jump

                    too high                

I stop

before I                

reach



the sky                



I feel

too deep              

I say

too much              

and
sometimes,

I don't say            

quite

enough.


imagine,

running after
the two o'clock train
at two o'three

in the pouring rain

thinking of
all the places
you have
to be...

you keep pace,

with your shoes
hitting the
puddled pavement

wondering where
all that
time went

still thinking
maybe


you can catch it.



loss of a dream,
it steams away.

so you slow,

your smile fades.

your hands grow cold.

and faces age.

year after year,
stuck at
two o'three
watching
passing trains
in the pouring rain,

wondering,
when your time
will be.

witchy woman Jul 2015
when I'm with you time slips by
all the worries that swim viciously
sink to the depths of my mind.

& when I'm without,
there leaves an awful drought
exposing the terrors on the dry land
valleys of dead thought trout.

I think without reason,
and reason without thought
cannot diminish or swallow
the bitter aching knot.

there's too many clouds in
my already crowded mind
all the hours passing aimlessly
& still I'm pressed for time

without you here
afraid I'm going to suffocate
beneath all my senseless fears.

afraid to lose all & everyone
I hold dear

for I miss the touch that
dams my sticky tears

I miss the soul
that helps mine be clear.
No beautiful landscape or time of vacation can help my aching heart. You're a million miles away and I can still hear your heartbeat replaying in my brain like a broken tape.
witchy woman Oct 2013
Darling*

Let me


Breathe you



And wrap myself next to your hollow body through thin sheets
&
Quilted dreams





Let me


Hold you



&
Let you feel
The ease I have to offer your tortured soul
witchy woman Jan 2014
Never knowing if you're alone
Who to turn to
Where to call home
Never knowing if maybe you're better off dead
Trying to categorize feelings
Into your heart or your head
Dark winding tunnels, expectations of pain
Not knowing if the light at the end is hope
Or a train
Can you outrun it?
Impossible.
Try and dodge it?
You'll get swept up in the undertow
Just look at your feet and keep going
Emotional tides high and over-flowing
Tears plunge into the absolute
Darkness of unknowing.

witchy woman Apr 2017
i used to  have something to write about
i used to read just to escape
i used to draw to see what I could create
i used to paint my very last sorrow
i used to throw caution to wind
and not give a **** about tomorrow.
i used to dye my hair different colours and not care about the result.
i used to find new music, good music
then my guitar I would consult
i used to bus everywhere with just my headphones in enjoying the scenery.
i used to see my parents at least once in the evening.  
when warm weather came i used to board until my legs shook and my body was hot a sweaty.
i used to do all these things,
then again,
I used to be me

Fangs sink into my skin
Release your deadly poison
With surreal words
And emerald eyes

space closes, time passes
seasons change, bringing inevitable difference with them.
as years draw by and sketch new lines on your face
I face the reality that,
one day, everyone will age.
from the moment you are born, you are already dying
life sends diseases of the mind and body to weaken you.
nobody is spared.
that's why so many are drawn to stories of death and despair
because we know it is right under our noses,
around every street corner,
behind every sunny spot, a shadow.
is it beautiful? ironically.
but is this really the way to live fulfilled? happily?
I have no answers,
I guess we'll just have to see
just thoughts, lately I havent been able to write anything extraordinary... but I feel like perhaps just writing down my thoughts may help me get back into that groove
witchy woman Jun 2013
I don't know how I got here

But I'm really ******* high

Gave me somethin' in a needle

Left my mouth all dry

But its all good

And I'm okay

witchy woman Jul 2013
Smoking my last cigarette
I know you hate it
Never kicked the habit

Walked in with your jawline set
I know your angry
Lets get at it

Walk out trailing behind you
Like I'm some kind of
a n i m a l?

Throw me into the passengers side
And kiss me hard
Before we go

Stick shift, seatbelt quick, 120k
Cool grin, bites lip, worry starts to fade
He tucks my hair behind my ear, oh so ever gently
Halted finally, stepping out of the 2014 Bentley

Swagger of his hips, lead mine to the door
His million dollar home, everything in store
Opens it, easy- then 1,2,3
Closes the door, and puts me on my knees

"You've been a very bad girl" he smirks down at me
Pushes my face into the bulge I see
I back up for a moment, weakness under his disguise
I bite my lip, and look up at him
With my lustful baby blue eyes
Yes my eyes are actually blue, it's one of the things I've been told are my best feature so I may as well work with them.. "K" in the first line stands for kilometres because I'm Canadian lol just in case some of you were possibles mystified. There will be many many more parts to this

soft serve
sun baked motel
peeling walls
of pastel painted hell.

tear stains from
a child’s eyes
They laugh and drink
she sleeps and cries

motel pool
the only solace
of the eternal the heat wave.

baking in the Florida sun
day after dull, dreary day.

she views her mother
as a friend
nothing more
no means to an end
no hope in store.

a party rages down the block
she watches from her balcony
thick night air broken by gunshots.

moms drunk & laughing
1:34 am on the clock

she’ll never see
a Christmas tree
with presents stashed beneath
the closest thing she has to Christmas
is the food truck that rolls around
every other week

the closest thing she has to friends
are stuck in the same broken homes
when her moms out partying
and they’re all gone
she finds herself alone

in a dimly lit motel room
TV blaring cartoons
purple and pink light from the sign
“Vacant—2 Beds, 2 Bed Rooms”

she’ll never have her dad
come and kiss her goodnight
she barely remembers him,
a blurry face
mom and him always in a fight

awake mid morning,
weary skies and rain today.

she just wants to go out and play
she dreams of being somewhere else

what it’s like living another life,
on another day

but not today.

sorry darling, not today.

Venus is in retrograde
King of Hearts,
Queen of Spades.

Or Queen of Diamonds, is perhaps
more suited to me.
For when did I start to think
so materialistically.
witchy woman Jan 2017
empty aching, waking
to cold feet and
grey blinds shadowing
the lusterless world outside.

deserted suburb, thoughts racing
minds fumbling, trying
to get past their persisting knots,
prying.

heavy headed, how can I not be? many conflictions, strange decisions
shadowing the small cracks
in lifes lens- I wander blindly.

silent world, technological hum fills the tense void. it is almost still
but if you listen close,
a quiet, violent noise.

a swarm of a thousand locusts; the moments before they cast themselves upon a city. we are are the waiting, herded to our daily lives- like dull, dusky sheep.

can you hear it? it is coming
change is in the air; do not hide- no, there is no use running.
for it will consume all of us inevitably.

crushed petals,
another budding rose,
smothered-
by our manifested reality.
Where is the world going in such a rush?
witchy woman Oct 2014
Differing perceptions, we divide.
We stumble through the numerous next rhetorical back-hands;
with magnetizing animosity, once again we collide.

Flame on flame, the heat of your tone burns me
because you're so unfortunately locked dead inside
and in I, you've discovered a key.

Toes occasionally submerged between the small bubbles, reflecting off the moon above the sand.
I walk the end of the map, where the ocean pours off to oblivion, your heart clasped within my hand.

I paddle out into the rapids, my last woven strengths carry me
tirelessly overdue, with courage & trial
I return the dead-mans chest to the sea.
I'm done with the dead man inside,
I'm done with the *******
Done with the lies
You no longer have a hold of me
I cast your heart
out to sea.
witchy woman Feb 2014
I suppose
as we grow older
the bitter wind
bites,
just a little bit colder.

The summer heat,
feels just slightly
more unbearable,
a tad  
too sweltering.

The wind whips
more aggressively
than before,
blowing through
the window screens
& underneath front doors.

Summer scent,
doesn't seem
to hold the same
saccharine bliss,
as it did
when we were
but kids.

Dread & gloom
appear with the
slow spit of rain
but,
do you remember a time
it filled
the puddles in which
you used to
laugh & play?

"Youth is
wasted on
the young"
We are so
often told.

Yet I see
no prevalence
in being
embittered & old.
witchy woman Sep 2014
Face like the button on my shirt he undoes with his teeth.

Autumn shortly, middle of the week

Your voice a charming, warm day at the beach.

His eyes chocolate, melting treat-
yet cool to the core

I bet your sugar tastes so sweet.
Love the fall
witchy woman Jun 2013
My head is spinning
The steady velvet stream dripping
We all succumb to blindness

It is a constant state of ever-being
As living, breathing creatures
In one way or another, we are blind

Blind about the self inflicted damage
Or the fraughtful life of a loved one
We shut our eyes, and allow ourselves to be blind

To the good, the bad, the inevidable especially
Insist that we're living our lives to the absolute fullest
Unbeknownst and blindly
