And then my dreams started coming true
Walking bare feet on this pathway to you
Untamed ways, un-manicured trees
I climb in my mind to the peaceful canopy
You smile brighter than the moon
And finally mountain tops bring teardrops
But the superficial ways of a terrible trade
Means your heart is left suspended
Our suspended hearts connected at last
But I talk about your eyes too much
And how your beauty has me speechless
Like deep valleys and rolling hills
Your image thrills and the world beats
With luscious greens and lovely blues
You give me goosebumps
And I’ve not yet mentioned your eyes
I can’t let it lie
I’m falling deep but it’s a voluntary leap
I can swim
Oceans are my destiny

You, with your precious eyes
More wonderful than diamonds
I prefer to compare them to a silky stone
That’s travelled far for its character
One that catches your eye as you walk along the beach with millions more
But this one, this one is special
This isn’t *** luck that I’m crazy in love
With eyes that reduce me to silence
Shyness makes me look away
But one day, one day I’ll be laying on your chest
Looking up through my eyelashes
Studying your face
Working out the journey to this beautiful place
Fingers through your hair, your lips I trace
Your eyes tell me stories

I'm so tired
Every footstep
Feels like miles
How much longer
To get where I'm going

My weakened legs
And buckled belly
Catching breath
On my broken lungs
yelling

I'm so tired
Let me rest in peace
Lord
I can hardly walk
And lift my arms

My head is hung
On lifes gallows
Every footstep is a thousand pounds
Every breath is a half pull

I'm so tired
My eyes close
Inside helplessness
My mind kills

Itself

The world is so heavy
To carry
My shoulders failed

I've lost desire
I'm so tired
And I can't lift my spirit any higher

On the floor of trying
I lay here dying

slow

And why here

All these years and marathons
Gasping for every breath
And finish lines

The time of speed
In the heart of beats
Crying in the pain of natures beast

I'm too tired of getting up
When my face is punched
And pummled each week

I want rest

In the peace of the graves death
Because I'm just too tired here
Fighting loneliness

Battling for money blessed
In paychecks spent
On rent and food fats

I'm too tired
To eat much
Too gone
To feel loved

I'm exhausted

To the max edge
Of this worlds coffin
I lay here
Staring at the ceiling
Waiting for my nerves
Calming

I want to sleep
But I'm still awake
And I contemplate
Escape

I believe it's coming

The weight of the world
Is so tough to carry
It's heavy with worry
And the devils scurvy

All I can do
Is eat drink
and be merry

But I'm just too tired
Of sparing

My life

I sit
on a canopy
of cool air
straight,  aligned
my soul afloat
heart gently graced
Lotus palms,
fingers touching
as chakras form rainbows
from my base,  
all through my spine
divinity frothing free
In prismatic pulses
my heartwaves
flushed of poisons,
energy cleansed
I am open
as the universe opens
to me
my third eye
in blossom

and even here
you reside in my
tiniest of fibers
even if I wanted to
I couldn't wash you out
you look into me
parting me,  gently
reaching into my
deepest of
strata

I am fresh fruit,
pulled apart
My juice runs
like a godly river
without me even
parting my thighs
Time and time again
I am electrified
touching this earth
the ripe flow of you
folds me into
little earthquakes,  
seismic vibrations
Only felt by me,
shaken to subtle core

and even if I tried to
resist it
you melt into me
like breath
you rock me
from chaos
into still ponds

So
for now
to calm the raging
waters that flow over
and through me
I sit
I breathe
and feel
one with
the heavens
and earth
the inner magic
rushing to me

I have myself,
woman of woman
and you,
a part of
     my landscape
forever

Such a sunny day unshielded from rain
and I have so many spent days alone
whispering to cornered phantoms
some of ago, others taunt and appease
to melodies of utter bitter sweets
If I could turn the clocks back I would
walk back to that perfected day
standing right there beside you
but love is not unconditional
and many people die drowned in it
trying in resolutions to make it work
and you could never fight for me
neither stand up shielded in misery
and my heart is ice cold and frozen
unable to feel, digressed from love
because in my eyes, it’s a waste of time
and my soul cries with an incurable ail
as if hit with a nail,unbailed a thousand times
deep within I stand as an unpolished iron
rusted and collected in sediments
ores of amber slime tapped as a ****
but the loathe on your skin tells it all
and all I wanted is to be better friends
but in your eyes, all is faint and insecure
and the cyclones of the past outweigh the present
