The thought was bizarre
Though the feeling was much stronger

Has the darkness around us
Brought us closer

To the truth?

The truth lies within the rose
Covered in snow
Fallen from utter despair...

You were here in body
But there in spirit

Because the thought was strange
Though the feeling bore more power
Than any of us

I must learn to love
It's not to late
to love


Coming down
I'll come down from the clouds

I see you
and see myself

The ocean stripped me clean,
At first it began to drown me
Then it began to save me

Healing,
Restored every inch of me with saline
Gently,
Then all at once
Eyes burning
Only to see clearer,
Soul discerning
Only to mount higher
To places I’ve never been

Resurfaced,
To the shore
After a lasting journey of self-love,
Kissing the sea goodbye
For all it has taught me,
Ever since.

She can walk
          between
             night and day
               never letting either
                  get in her way.
She learned this trick
                     many moons ago
                                by
                     going deep within
           and never letting it show.
Her soul is innocent
her heart is pure
she’s gone through more
than most could endure.
            She’s an angel of light
                 an angel of dark
                 you never know
              what you will spark.
                      You want to hurt her?
                         Please, go ahead and try
                           she’ll be the one to show you
                                  just how well she can
                                                              f
­                                                                l­
                                                                ­  y.
                                  Her soul innocent
                    her heart pure
      but never think for one minute
that she’s not secure.
                                Say what you will
                          please, do what you must
                       but your jealousy and hatred
                             won’t waver her trust!

laundry poem
 Jul 2018 Cecelia

want to throw ya in designers
tear the streets up, just you and me
you know what i'm thinking
go to bed wearing your white tee

our loving's like super bae though
hearts been broken before
and our feet's kind of sore
losing control, shades of grey

blind against the world, rainbow casting
its ghost across the cloudy sky's sweep
how can we leap when we limping?
how can we laugh when we weep?

only together, dont tell ya friends
i have a soft spot in my insides for you
someday i wish to be the poem
instead of the one writing the artful lines
i want to see myself
through someone else's eyes
i want to turn my heart off
to put my feelings on pause for awhile
to have someone else write about my smile
i want to be numb, for just a day or two
to take a walk in somebody else's shoes
i long to be the creation
the words from someone else's pen
