You can't just
say deep things
Deep things come
naturally
sweet sugar candy
your luscious deliciousness
that pleasures my tongue

I have much
Better
Purpose'
Then just being
Some woman.
I have much
Better
Purpose
Than even what
I know.
I have a better purpose
May God let it grow.

The curve of my lips
Gives you thousands of rays
That nothing else can give

The smile on your face
Gives me millions of reasons
To love and to live

You call me Sunshine
The one and only
Light of your day

I call you my Rain
The one that heals me
And takes my pain away.
She and He--
Always a beautiful story :)

Lost in my thoughts wandering
Following a road without destination
A rose standing aside the road
So beautifully misplaced
The way the stalks part
Spikes along the way
Until they reach the top
Where a blossom
Is showing it's most beautiful shades of red


As I keep on staring
I finally come to realize
This is life
This is who we are

We're growing up
Each time the stalks part
It's another decision we have made
The spikes being the pain
Along the way called life
Until it reached the top
Where we can prosper
No matter the pain we have been experienced
One day it will wilt making room for others

Can life be really that simple
Like this beautiful flower
Standing alongside the road?
It might be...
Written without knowing, where this was heading to. So that's the result. I hope you enjoy.

Alone at midnight
Beneath the cold stars
The warmth of the sun
Seems so far away
Suffocating deep within
Unheard screams echo
Trying to break those cold chains
That bind my heart
Not knowing how to unravel
Its stifling pattern
Frozen
Living on the precipice
Fearful of the fall
Hopeful to take flight

a mountain is upon me,
I have dug and dug,
what seems to be my grave,
and with little grace is left I try my best,
to dig my way out,

each day I've prayed,

a mountain is above me,
and I've been trapped,
my grave is where I stand,
and with little grace I tried my best,
to get out,

each day I prayed,

a mountain hangs overhead,
and I've been left for dead,
I lie in the dirt grave I've been told is made for me,
and with little grace I did my best,
to take my last few breaths,

each day,
*I prayed.
mountains = problems

your trapped until your die in your problems,
you sometimes only can make things worse,
sometimes others will leave you for worse.

Control.
I've lost control. It feels that way, anyway.

But I'm always in control. Control of my life, my career, my money. My journey.

Im so in control that I don't even realise I'm not, until it hits me. Like an unstoppable force. An insurmountable pressure. A tsunami crashing against my mind, the weight of it almost crushing me.

I let my mind crumble. I succumb to rage, and then stress and then to tears. Feelings, emotions, thoughts flood in. The gates are opened. I feel vulnerable.
I try to weather the storm. After all, My mind has done so a thousand times. Battered, and flogged like a cyclone sweeping through a rural town.

They say there is a calm before the storm. But there is also a calm after it as well. A serenity that follows a catastrophe. A peace.
I'm now at peace. Too exhausted to feel anything else but.

I'm slowly regaining control. Systems returning to normal. Rebuilding from the devastation.

I'm there. I'm back. I'm me again, except for one small difference. It's a thought.

How do I stop this happening again?

Animated patterns of light and dark,
quavering here on the wall beside me.

Through this window glass
from another century,
denuded branches
dance --
But only apparently.
