I remember the night
So young

So new to me

I found wanting to kiss

When

Temptation was flowing

I never thought I would

Let another touch me

But

I could never stay along

You were gone so long

As time marches on

I forgot

But I will never be the same

I lay down

To get you off my mind

Even time to time

I try to remember

Those long ago nights ...


You made love to me

Time to time

I see those lips

When I leaned on you ...


I realize now

I can make it on my own

No more hurting

Seems to be

For me to see

Till I get used to losing you

I may use the memory

Of knowing

Till I can make it on my own

Until I remembered the night ...

Simply the beauty of it
So much beauty
that I proceed
that lies simply before me
pastures scream with colored symphony
bountiful meadows
precious rain
run into the living stream
how I dance in glorious glory
flowers color all around me
colors that i adore
simply wash the waves of life
in the ever bending
liquid blades
possessions collected
drawing me closer
to the simple beauty of it..

Debbie Brooks 2014
I love the colors of life they make me want to dance

Pangs of Love
She was  surprised to wake up in his arms. His breathing was slow, and steady, she thought he was still sleeping, a steady movement against her hands..
She had to admit it felt good but she was still surprised. Her heart was thumping against his cheek, strong and becoming excited.

      It was difficult to believe she was laying in a hotel room with this man, practically naked, with a man she hadn't known very long. There was an attraction between them neither one could deny, the emotions were strong and the passion they felt just looking at each other, and when they touched it was an explosion of excitement.

      She closed her eyes and breathed deeply, trying to gather her thoughts which was hard when she laid so close to him, this gorgeous man. His hand started moving where he was cradling her neck to her hair. He was awake.

"Good Morning lovely," He whispered...
"Hello, you are awake." She was surprised.
"Yes, been awake for a while, just wanting to look at you. I didn't want to disturb you.." He was grinning. He looked so happy.

"I guess I fell asleep. I am so sorry,  too much wine for me." She felt embarrassed, she didn't usually make a habit of going to a motel with a man.

"Hey me too. I guess it was the moment the ***** and the anticipation, but that's alright it is nice being here with you." he smiled at her with a smile that melted her heart.

With her next question she held her breath, she really didn't want to know the answer but she had to know.  "When do you have to leave?"

She knew he was leaving, he had mentioned it  but....... It made her so sad so they had avoided the subject.

  "Not until this evening, my love," she looked at her face memorizing every inch of it, "Any regrets love?"

"What do you mean?" She asked very sad.

"For anything, for how you are feeling, love look at me." his hand took her chin and turned her head to him. "Talk to me, how are you feeling?"

"You are leaving, I am very sad and disappointed, we just met and I feel this connection with you. I haven't had much luck with relationships and then I meet you and its instant attraction. How do you expect me to feel? I feel numb, sad and just want to cry, but I am a big girl. Life will go on and you will still be gone." She pulled away, got out of bed and started putting her clothes on, then she stopped and looked at him. "You might not ever come back alive. This war, is senseless, you are going to fight for nothing. I have already lost you. I can not stand it.. That's how I am feeling."

With that she grabbed the rest of her clothes and her belongings and ran out the hotel room. She ran until she could run no more. She ran into the park and found a tree, and cried. She wanted to die.

Her Palms
Her palms on the shower wall
steam in the air, hot water covering
her tears, choking back, head bent down
body tense, from the shocking affair ...

The affliction of her heart
cries in distress,
of a lost soul bound ...

The anger builds as she screams
to relieve the hurt, agonizing pain
yet no one hears ...

Alone and isolated in silence,
alienated as one soul
she's breathless as panic evolves
through the horror of her fears ...

Wounded by words that were spoken
she falls deep in her black hole ...

Her escape ...

Miles apart
a new beginning,
of what could be
she fantasizes of him
a star, a knight of white
her desire to be loved,
She wants to cry for her feelings
the soulless of her grave,
tortured, unloved
once again ...

Her palms on the shower wall ...

Rendering Tears
Rendering Tears of painful knowing
beyond human endurance
her tiny nose pressed to the window
her little breath clouding over
shortness coming to her little form
in a voice of inky blackness
in a small voice she cried
till the very end ...

Her tortured heart becomes a shadow
Understanding blindness
just means another
Even in the vast darkness
overcoming the death of her blackness ...

The sky so blue changing colors
turning black to the touch she feels numb
Those were times she had wept so silently
never knowing what was to become ...

"Never go", she whispers softly
As the Angel sat at her side
holding the little one so gently
knowing the hurt she did abide ...

The dawn was coming
beyond the night
singing softly
a little song
Little Serenity was dreaming ...

She has now outlived
the pain and sorrow this day so long,
The Angel sat long and hard
Purple clothes had she
Holding the child in her arms
crying softly 'Why? Oh how could this be?" ...

Delivering the child softly and tenderly to the arm's of the Queen
She stood poise waiting for the blessed command.

Another Hidden Day
I saw you but a glimpse
a distance in the night
we once were so right ...

It was another hidden day
as my restless mind wandered
in dreams of you ...

Your velvet kiss was there
your fingertips down my back
your heated gaze singeing ...

Lovers soot upon my skin
a forbidden, sweet, nonsensical
magical sin ...

My wanting overwhelms me
remembering our secret,
clandestine day dream ...

You my desperate addition,
tears my conscience to shreds
can you hear me screaming ...

There you were in my hidden day
you saw my tears and you turned away
why can't I have you, my hidden love ...

When I close my eyes, there you are
just like before
in my hidden days ...

The Patio
It's been awhile
you and me sitting on our patio
listening to our 70's songs
'why do you love me most'
holding our hearts in our hands
you making me dinner
touching my heart..

The day you left, hurt me so
but darling there you sit wanting
oh yes wanting to come back
I have to admit, the damage was done
the pain was formed
the tears destroyed so much
but there you sit..wanting me once again...

Should I have a hard heart
a cold soul, a nonchalant attitude
should I nod my head, that yes I want you in my bed?

Should I cry my fears, tell you no
or melt in your arms once again
like I did before ???

Darling, you do look so handsome
you are promising the stars
my lips want yours, tell me something
what should I do, do I let you  in
do I let you hold my heart again?

Miles and Miles Away
The miles seem so long ago

with outstretched arms their finger tips touched

they had touched through minds and endless love

their dreams came together one by one

how many hours were spent loving and planning

but the dreams are still there, even with doubt or no meaning

within time their dreams will cross

so full of truth and falsity

now that its over, life seems so lost

flushed and eyes draped need to go on

with moving miles that forms the other

feeling undesirable she longs to die

picking the other seemed so right

Those million miles away ...

Debbie Brooks 2014
why did you move miles and miles away...

You would Say
The time you look my way
'So beautiful'
You would say
'You are always on my mind'
Always this very day
‘How can I tell you?'
How beautiful I think you are?’
The time you looked my way
Was so very nice today
‘Oh so beautiful
That you make me cry’
The time you held me
Until I signed
So gentle to the touch
To let me know
I was the one
'You’re my angel'
You would say
‘I am the one
Who feels blessed?’
Oh so many days
Holding my Angel song
In your hands
You knew me
We couldn't go wrong
You were leaning into me
As our lips touched
No matter how much fun it would be
I was not in my right mind
You said
‘It didn’t matter
You loved me anyway’
Then the letter
I sent
That was sealed with a kiss
It was special to my heart
I thought it was you
As you blew it
Brought to my heart
With a fright
Beauty lies within
As it flies on by
Tell me why?
What beauty you shall see
As it walks on thy hand
Hold me you say
One last time this day
I am no exception to the rule
There always is a fool
Just one more time as I am blue
As you walked out that
Door
You said
“One Last time tonight and no more."

Beware Of My Heart
As the pitch black night covers her face
it was her guiding light
that her search was unworthy of being a woman
of one's dreams
she feels as if life didn't matter
yet she still climbs her lighted ladder ...

Looking in the mirror she is blinded to her madness
she starts to disbelieve
she still dreams, even with doubt or meaning
within time her dreams will cross,
so full of truth and without falsity
she holds on to her life, her love
one last time, not wanting to let go
for her dream has to be real as she fades into the clouds ...

Her heart is raw, her hair draped around her face
she cries in her hands, she feels undesirable
unwanted and losing her reality
she longs to be part of the one that has her heart
she searches for, for any sign
to be the purpose of his never ending dreams

Please she begs, with tears falling and her soul torn in half
please she begs, Beware of her heart...

He Is Mine
Standing at the road of life

This world had to offer

The world to me

As I surrender to his poetic words

That was held close to my heart

No more nightmares

I beg the night

As he tied off my soul with heartstrings

At last He was there....


Singing my lonely songs

Holding my heart

So close, he stood

At last

The skies above were new....


My heart was there waiting for the dream

Yet words were so inferior

To see the one of mine

Love

Dreams

Today

Maybe we are supposed to be.....



Be mine and only mine

At last

He Is Mine

Deep Feelings
You told me your feelings
so deep they were
they made me cry...

The honesty dug deep
born forth a rapture
that brought me to my knees...

You took me by the hand
squeezed my very soul
ripped my tears from their sockets
held with a force that shall keep me
in the endless days of Utopia's fortune...

Deep feelings they are
tears of joy brought forth
our vision, our *******
in the form of a perfect image...

The Garden Of Love.
Come sit in the garden for a while
See the flowers smile
They will give you love
And a few flowers for thee and me
You will have such peace
From their loving place
Of their delightful sounds
With treasures to be found
Their sweetest songs
Come from wonderful thoughts
They will bade you welcome
From the deepest soul
Kindness overflowing
That sweetly flows
Fond of life’s joyful noise
‘Come, come.’ They will say
‘Sit awhile and find your fate!’
Full of love your find at the gate!
Foes and friends
Will last the night
Their beauty your see
Will give you such delightful
Beautiful gardens full of flowers
Toads running amuck
Among the hours
The kitchen cupboards
Filled with sweets
Holding firm that we can dream
The sea lays calm’
At the side.
The moon is fair
Sitting with mom in her chair
Heaven by light is great to see
The paths she takes a delight for all
Never tirelessly will succumb
But will always be the mom
We love!
From Your Daughter Deborah Jo...

Pieces
Seeing you down by the brook and so
With musings in my mind
Pen in hand
I knew you were one of a kind ...

My heart bloomed
The love I saw left my soul
To crave more so low ...

We placed our love on hold
For a rainy day and a heavy load
The days flew and love that we knew
Seemed to fade as the days tumbled by ...

Roaming this universe
In a lonely crystal glass
That didn't last!
Eyes blind with tears
A face so still ...

It was your face,
It broke my heart
The love we knew
Hurt so real ...

Took pieces of me ...*

Retracing time
Born from revelry thus fair and smooth
My eyes rested on him
A ‘true gentleman’ writ large on his face
My gaze longingly upon his spirit
With the nicest smile,
and a laughter of distinction and grace

I ponder…my dreams of him night and day
My muse in love with him, every which way
With welling tide of emotions without end
While white frothy waves cover my mind
As I walk through the garden of his life…
Under each leaf, looking for him, hoping to find


If only I could turn back the hands of time
The day I was seizing the world
A wonderland that so dear I hold
Close and cherished by my heart
I would give up my now
For that precious second start…



That enigmatic moment that I laid
My eyes upon you
I knew my darkness may someday shine
The revelry had perchance thrown up
A pearl wrapped up in immortalized time

Etched and elusive seconds
Turned to minutes hours and years…
Today…

Your dreams are a symphony’s crescendo
I, the elusive maestro, you the virtuoso
The era that you worship, is a bygone eternity
Tidal oceans, the lost sea of tranquility
The spirit you seek, is missed love’s divinity

If you could turn back the time, would
your eyes be at peace, the muse still love him
Your thoughts that often porpoise through...
the gardens that are your loved wonderland
Would your heart stretch out
to hold today’s wrinkled hand?
In collaboration with my dear friend Musedee

Medicinal Melody
The heart skips, losing once
to many more then she adored
holding fast to who she loves
a supple and a gurgle she does make
falling away by the side,
she walks away as the morning breaks
healing dreams she once believed
never being a flawless being
her dying scream she doth make
a care she has no more to come
dreams so far away....

Walking in her head, that never was
one soul was born-darkened wish..
society souls, how dark the dish
the wicked game, refocused dreams
is there one, that is not stained?
a safe dream, finding them
the shadow to all concerns
a players Kiss to much loss
and so it begins and begins
with the blue dream of mine..

TILL the end of time....

Visions of Beautiful Day.
The twinkle of the day, visions of loveliness
brings my love and I, to the edge of the tree
sitting on visions of green, with sweet kisses and thee
laughter so sweet, with bliss of everlasting life
with air so mild, as we wander aimlessly ,
I am your wife
in the times of our lives...

Sharing strawberries one at a time
sipping a bottle of wine,
singing in each others heart
picking yellow flowers and sticking in our hair
Laughing uncontrollably tears stemming down
our cheeks, these are the times of our lives ...

This is a vision of a beautiful day...*

Calling Heaven
Shining light you are
Nightingale by far
Who flies up high…..

That brightens the song of love
In their hearts of gold
By which
That the soul feels delight ...

Echoing nature’s melody
Of pure white
With feelings of rhyme
That sings a song to all
Your crafted poetry
Blends for all to be ...

Speaking of your glorious nature
Makes all blind to see
As you walk in the garden of loveliness
Your light shines forth
Your eternal aroma blends with your life
A wonderful love you will be ...

What Will Be
A thousand sands in time
holding hearts sublime
crying their tears again and again
watching as they slip away
what will be will be....

Wanting what I can't have
and scared to try something new
please let me just stay here and hide
bring me my surprise
kiss my lips one more time ...

You are so full of laughter
so full of love
its not that simple
don't you understand?
love is a beautiful dream
it's just waiting for me ...

Life is not what it is
life is random pen musing
a unhappy cry
crying the blues
no more songs,
It will be new for me
don't you see ...

What will be will be*

remembers a life of old
she knows she died
that once a moment
that delays her
rising, once

short and sweet

Divine heavenly sanguinity
blessed prehensile thoughts
of two souls sitting atop floating clouds
basking in sun’s glory.
Travelling as the drift takes us…sometimes
kissing mountain tops or dancing in the vale,
flowing along with the gurgling
stream, touching each pebble so gently
caressing each fern, each shore.
Sea the ultimate destination
merging into nothingness, yet
you and I granted immortality
unending mirth and laughter.
Heaven and earth our abode
Of two bodies and one soul.

Our divine heavenly bodies
bless us with my red rainbow
our two souls floating in the different shades,
translucent of my colors
with sweet rain on our lips
kissing the ultimate of desire,
as we try and stay within the lines
somehow we drift, into the others  being,
with each stroke of your hand
you always bring me back to you
with each touch you transform
my blank canvas to blend with yours
as the red returns back in my soul…

Dear love...
I want your love your special touch that finds my soul,
That holds my tears in your eyes,
That kisses my breath in your mouth.
My ******* long for your matador,
And the moon at our backs,
Hiding your hands,
Holding me in your embrace
With lavender folding around our bodies,
Kissing the dew of tears one last time...
Oh darling,
How you rained down on me slowly in poetry
Now snow white rays of clarity that shows
That bed of river flowing in our quietude here..
I love you darling,
Oh so much

Single Word
It was just a single word, that lasted all day and night
it spoke to my heart, made me cry with fright
an article of thought, longing for the ultimate surmise
it was just a single word...


I beseech-ed of you, that word, for the word to go away
you are the arteries throughout my being
don't you understand, the most cherished
whispered into my being, that word, that single word
please go away..

Four decades of loving you, then the word
that left your mouth, that exploded all around
that hurt the most, that single word, that you spoke
it was a single word...


Our inner most thoughts were all we had
seduced I was with your ways, I would have followed you
till I died...Then that word, that hurtful single word
you crammed in down my throat you held it over my head,
you are not my lover...

That single word....

Last Note To A Love Song
The faraway song of love

That makes the night bittersweet one more time

The voice of gladness

The eloquence of beauty!

The poetess in me writes to the poet in you..


Feeling tiny in this darkness

Tiny curb place in this space

This only sacred place, right now I feel alone....


Looking as though you were alive, I called

There we stand hand in hand

By design we never spoke

The last notes to the love song....


Strangers like us never guessed

The depth and passion we had

At each earnest glance

The curtain we have drawn for us

Please take care of my heart, I pray

How such a glance and a song came thru!

For you, the last note to the love song....

Debbie Brooks 2014
His words so special
​just three little words
we grew as we drank in our poetry of our minds...

He told me he loves me
called me Angel,
made me fall in love
made me dream of the promises
of the tomorrows, the always of him ...

My darling dear, the nights were cold
my life was a three ring circus and then there was
the most amazing man, step through my life
and swept me away, with dreams of togetherness
and the forever mores...

Stuck on him, is my destiny
dreaming of love, and let me walk
through burning fires of hope ...

He told me he loves me
he called me Angel
and I am stuck on him
and his three little words.... I love you....

Quietly Sad
I murmur
So quietly sad
Dear Lord
What's in store for me...

Laughter and joy are gone
I know no other to do
The love is gone
That I once knew....

There is a war in the world
The rage goes on and on
As flawed as this woman may be
I wonder with all my might
What might be in sight....

Dare I ask
What DO I deserve
The promises I hear
And all I see....

Promise me the moon
The stars oh please
Grace falls from His presence for thee
Is there any wonder at all.
For all the world to see. ....*

Nights of Nights
Your golden shadow ranges over me
feeling your love  those mishaps of yesterdays
and maybe tomorrows to come
feeding my expectations of  hands
that would hold mine..

Kissing my breath away , waiting for you to spread signs
before me, laying your seeds of want
that is place delicately before my need of you
standing here begging you to want me
with my wistful eyes of light...

Should I move  upon my heart's whim
listening to your heart of lust
the places you may touch
holds my raging so close
who is this, I say,  may I be wild and free??

Violent blows all through the night
as our bed of prison feels so right
you are the shameful eyes that see through me
in a world of discontented evils
then your soothing voice calms me
in your pleasing sight...

Leading me out of my shameful nightmares
holding the glimpse of hope
I am filled with endless doubts
then the tomorrow's sun beams
On our hearts that beats steadily.....

Looking forward to the night of nights
that you will be there
I can't put my pen down
as I remember your face of sorrow
daily I hear your voice calling....

This will be the nights of nights....*

Through the doorway of time
Comes through with strife
I was starting to lose myself
In the moment of my mind
It was gone in an instant
I must have been imagining
The glow of your love
And then I stepped into nothingness
When knocked down to my knees
I felt
The mirror of your touch
My love and the instant flame
As I stood up slowly
As I made my way to your arms
Your intentions were not plain
I rose more slowly to find
You the second time around
______________________________________________
*Who was it whose embers did burn?
After the fire had been doused
The mirror that reflected your image,
Even after you were gone
Why is it that you forget the path?
That was…by rims of my eyes,
Lit with candles, fuelled by my tears,
The one whose shoulders you held on
When you were skidding , slipping,
It was just that momentarily you had looked
Into a setting sun, a darkness…blinding you
I was always besides, had always been true
If ever nothingness is what surrounds you
You need to just need to sigh a name aloud,
For me, it shall be a clarion call
A whisper louder than a shout….
The next a waft of cool breeze comes calling on
Knocking on your doorway of time
And it appears hopelessly shut as such
Open the window and there you’ll find
This man, his intentions plain and true
Standing patiently under the autumn yew
Waiting, the spring of a smile from you…
Who always loved you so much…
The curtains to the show have not dropped as yet
Wait awhile…
The story is still alive
Just this world that we have passed through
Another world beyond this
Awaits…

Despair
Despair was her name
welcoming death was the game
one shade brown turn to gold
her heart was so stone cold
her black hair flew around her face
she knew she was in much disgrace
her long red dress revealed her soul
her darkness she knew could not be sold
her lover left her high and dry
sought her for a time
yet so eloquent she did abound
her smile won hearts, with eyes that glowed ...

Despair's heart was broken this night
with ambers of broken flame
that crushed her spirit oh this far
that made her pounce as he walked by
the night was icy and bitter cold
the blood seemed to over flow
she walked far into the field
with blood dripping from her soul
there was no time for sorrow
no time for pain
such misery was not to gain
her lover she left laying half eaten
he would never leave her side again ...

Your Love
Where fortune gives to light
where love has bought the night
he is my fire of the earth
when he makes love,
wow passion of the fullest
he opens the portal to my soul
he is my miracle and desire at a glance
revealing himself under the cloak at night
one I feel I cannot live with out..

My beloved, thank you for coming into my life
light of love has hit my eyes
his strength of his own creation
come to me my love, bring such joy
to my body I need this very evening
until the burning sun shines once more
as you invade my being, and leave me breathless..

The Soul Can See
How can I see the insides of your soul
although your eyes show your strife
your love sprinkles my being
the unity of time, becomes pure
in your arms, I am your woman your wife ...

We lay kissing as clear water cover our souls
as the color of night fades I still lay
wrapped in complete harmony
never wanting to part,
is the image of eternity ...

With the thunder dancing in the distance
our story of virginity passes by, as we still lay
soaking in the midnight sun, as we step down
from the first law of emotion ...

Not a word is spoken as we look at each other
with a love born in the sands of time
through the purity of time and hunger
the soul can see our beauty and our mind ...

Embracing The Change
Life begin the day I saw you
fluttering around you like a school girl
my wings start to flutter
you slung your net to capture
and I am embracing the change....

You dried away the tears
kissed my heart so nice
having transformed before your very eyes
then I awaken to a million kisses
and I have embraced the change...

You lift me up to your very soul
lick the tips of my toes
sang to me your melody
arising to the morning sun
as I approach I say, I have embraced your change...

The water was soothing to my face
you hold me so very very close
my clothes are shredded
my feet grounded in soft ground
my darling, I am ready for your change...*

Never Thought
Many a day
I never thought
I would long for you
I miss feeling alive,
Sending messages from the stars..

My gaze is set upon
conversed with twilight
sweet air that moves my fair
hair through the tranquil breeze
of never thoughts, are high in solemn light...

Never thoughts are language of love
quenching warmth you gave me
crying my soul of longing
and not belonging
and missing you....*

Last Night
Ray of light, beams and cast away the night
shadows departing as you joined me so slowly
circling and waiting for the right moves...

Illusions fall away to heightened the consciousness
kissing the hurt so far away
with the rise and fall of our breaths
last evening was the perfect night
I listen for the silence , your breath so near
you are reaching for my form to bring me to you....

As twilight begins and birds start their song
the night was so magical and my mind set in stone
the day flows along, the dreams roll around
wanting to be into a new night, with my special love...

The dusk is here and I am where I belong
your arms are outstretched guiding me once again
You circle and guide following my look
this will be the night, you promise,
better than last one.....*

For My Love
323 · Sep 2014
Moments
I am in the moment
a moment of time
a creative light of being
with a fast achieving love
taking nothing for granted
not even the sun or stars can shine
with the hole in my heart
and the weakened soul
with a love of enchantment
a cry that claims me
one more moment of time....

Release
The colors of jazz you see
flying here, playing there, that was me
music was my belief
in this long lost memory...

All things still pass
like shards of glass
floating and fading in misty aura
believing what we are...


Refraining  far beyond
grasping  to succumbe
releasing the cold
reflections of old....

Wasted days of silent answers
inside this eternity's blanket
through the immortal echo
reflections in a world of mirrors...

Release me I cry..
This is  goodbye
Please no more lies...

She breaks into the night
Carrying the art of love
to her ***** so lovely
much pleasure she holds
takes hold of the night
sheer radiance reveals
undertaking of noble verse
breath avails
idea of a poet thoughts.*

Living Light
Sweet desire of firm lips
are a living light for me this night
sweet desire I have cherished
in my heart, that burns my soul....

No Star can resist the movement of love
the splendor that follows that commands
the last assault, forever bated with sublime beauty
bright angel eyes, living light....

Enlighten my world with enticing beauty
strengthen my heart in the eternity
my journey to heaven
will bring the living light....*

Savoring the Invisible
As she savors the taste of the invisible,

she realized the day was long as it looked so bleak.

She had to get a hold of herself.

The longer she waited and waited

the harder it was going to be to let go.

The chase was old; she realized she was just way too old for the race.

Driving the old highway of life

The destination quite unknown!

She saw him standing there

Not menacing

Maybe a little mousy

What a coincidence

Wherever she goes

There he is!

Somehow she is not frighten

Of a shabby scarecrow of a man

She feels just as vague as a leaf

Now the fear is no longer vague

The terror is really there!

Has a form

He was beckoning her

He wanted her to die

She didn’t know what to do!

Stabbing little thoughts frighten her brain

Ugly frighten thoughts!

Projecting of tomorrows and the next day

It is all nightmarish alone

Towns fly by like a nightmare

Scared out of her wits

Holding her thoughts like a movie

The story is yet to be told

She is left all alone!

No birds singing

Just the cries of the lonely

He was so different from the mousy man

A man of a caring nature

She somehow trusted him

Wanting him to be near her

Taking him for his word!

An enemy of her dreams!

She needed someone to help her

A warm familiar voice

So she would not lose her mind!

Where would she be?

Very odd

The fear has left her now

She is numb

It’s like someone has pulled a plug out of her!

Everything, emotions and fear has drained out

Now she is a cold shell

She is conscious what is around her now

The vast night

The stars that look down from the darkness!

A head of her stretching a thousand miles

Of empty land, mountains, prairie and desert

Somewhere he is waiting for her

Somehow she will find out what he wants!

Just now

For the first time

Looking out at the night

She thinks she knows!

With every breath she breaths

He took it her last with him!


Savoring the invisible

Was to her demise!


"Three can’t keep a secret if two are dead!"

Benjamin Franklin

Waiting - Behind The Door
Her thoughts were cloudy seeping
haze of regret covers her burning eyes
a dark villain is born, a dark passage through time
envelops a painting so obscured to love once again ...

His change of deed is not easily seen
to make his message clear that he would be waiting
for her to appear. he thought of her loving glance that burned
in his soul, Atrocious and foul, that it may be ...

It burns her soul, she was on edge, fear and wonderment
at the excitement of what was behind the door, the waiting
consumed her, the darkness was calling, with a scream so loud
a hand covers her mouth, and a rose appears, with lips that pressed
to cover her silence, pressed her to the door ...

Forcing to look at her capture, the dark eyes filled her very soul
she wanted to cry out but her body responded differently
as his hand fondled her *******, and told her she was his
feeling the wetness of the fluid that seeped into his life,
there was no turning back ...

Never looking back, her strength had invited death
but joy was found that dark night, her light was glowing
once encouraged by mortal fear, an overpowering warmth
was covering her body, as she waited behind the close doors.

You Were Forever
Forever in the thickening
in your splendid heart
I felt your soul
Shadows huddle tightly
no remorse etching of this life
down by the waterfall
we were forever
on that sweet day
recalling what it was like
to be
forever in your arms
with stained starved memory
against the starlight night
with storms on the horizon
time slips away
in the peaceful ride
beyond the tomorrows
of yesterdays
You were forever
in my loving mind.....

He Gave Her A Red Rose
Your never hear the love of a woman
or the sound of her lonely voice
until he magically appears
and whispers in her ear ...

"Red Roses I will give and you will adore with the simple touch of my hand"

She will never share her heart, unless he is the perfect one
then red roses suddenly appear for their perfect love
and when he entered her glowing soul, his smile she would never perceive to lose ...

She's your lost fantasy , she will move your heart
but when he gives her that red rose, she will never part
out of passionate compassion, she will follow him
and make her home with his, if he will only have her this night ...

From the burning of their guts, with the touch of fingers sliding
she whispers notes of love yous, streaming from her mouth,
surged with swelling of the sprinted nurse heart
he heals her heart with love, the notes of their bodies, a longing
a wanting, a perfect song of red roses, sprinkled all around
their lives ...

Make Me Forget
Oh Please dear Sir come into my dream

make me forget every raindrop that has fallen

circle me with rainbows within my very soul ...

Play with my emotions let me feel your presence

kiss away my tears, hold me in your ripples

bring me to such ecstasy hold me to your side

pick me up inside your love

never let me go, in your very song

there are no words, that I can say

hold my hand my love once again

look into my heart for my very needs

come without notice, never make a sound

give me a love thats never lost, as two hearts become one.

Our Invisibility
Hidden from my reality, my mind wonders by his world

does he see me in the mist of his spiritual dream

am I invisible to his kiss, his touch and love

or only a timeless imagery of those dark gorgeous eyes

my daydreams come daily, what our love could be

as he is always in the back of my pleasuring mind

just waiting for my eyes to close

to see my love,

so we can see each other once more

you see the Invisibility of our love

grows with each dream and wow how it lasts

to look upon another and not be invisible again

as my body travels through time and dreams ...

Momma Said
Lift your head from the gravel pain
Momma said, lift your hand to make a better day...

Mamma said, tomorrow will be a better way
the pain will leave once you leave the ivory places of your mind
write your life with a pen of iron
let your words be weighed on a scale of riches
that speaks to the amorous heart that whispers
on tablets of passion which lay bare....

Mamma said, his love will stay
just make him happy in his place
let him have his fill in the sweet air....

Well Momma, life has been up and down
kind of beat me up
he left and found another
but it's alright love has come again
as he joins me in my being
holds my heart in his hands
makes me want to stay in this sweet air
of romance and love that has begun...

Dear Momma, Us women need a refuge
When we have lost our way
A place of retreat
A moment of love
Gracious Kiss
From a precious heart
Kisses from high
Keeps me coming back
To Romance and love that has begun....

My sweet Momma, there is love once again ...

My Glass Revealed
The grass is soft as I scamper along
looking for where I belong
my bare feet cut to shreds
the glass revealed the pain I feel ...

As I place myself in the center realm
my delicate red roses exposes it self
I reach down to take hold of my red red rose
my tears show me a honest revelation I suppose ...

With sadness in my soul
and tears within my heart
I wonder how this ever got hold
as it falls to the ground and behold
it gathers a strong storm that is cold ...

As my desire wants to return
my flower within the morning sun
I hold with my hands the love that was born
My glass has been revealed that's forlorn ...

Who WE May Be
It happened upon a WEARY starry starry night
that brought us together TO FIND ANOTHER
weary starry day to find who may WE be....

EACH TO HIS OWN, the muse finds even more
to help us confuse the other so we may be
not alike, so completely different, cant you see
what May?

Maybe we are a dream, someone so charming
are thee, and far far away...

Maybe we are smiles, blowing leaves in the trees
a whispering wind that blows through us that
is looming over the sea....

Just follow the road, follow the stars
the yellow brick and green, then let
us sit awhile and smile ...

A glass of wine, cheese and lime
lets hold hands, talking a mile,
looking deep within, missing our muse
in this sleep of dreams, two hugs are one
telling us Who We May Be ...

Debbie Brooks
This is dedicated to Vincent Van Gogh... he was quite mad and his painting to me were and are wonderful... so among his madness he was and is a great artist.
A face I can see with my mind’s eye

eyes naked beyond authenticity

only seen with my eyes undressed

your features your smile,

wondering if we met in a past life

and maybe yearning too,

as you touch my very life and caress my very soul

as I search my lonely heart, there is a tug I feel

that pulls me irresistibly, in a direction

that I am not sure of ...


Your naked eyes were the windows

That wore mascara blinds

Through them looking at me was easy

But seeing my soul not

Now that you see me bare in all glory

Place your heart on mine

Let me tattoo each pore of yours

With my dulcet gentle caress

The rose petal road that I have chosen for us

Shall join us immortally….

Give Us This Day
Give us this day, to look upon our lives
of fear and suffering, of response of all
a symbol of our strength, believing,
forever seeing ....

Seeing, the world as all should see
with visions of love, and acceptance
thats towering and compelling
just the way we are ...

With dragons as defenders
we climb to conquer our destiny
We will stand on top as our goblins
cower and fade away ...

With swamps of ogres to crush our dreams,
violence unleashed, immortal achievers
with no sight or hope of their own
will stand up and say no MORE! ...

So Give us this day, with willowy glimpse
of beauty and a wilderness to see
we have our friends, we call elves and fairies
to dream of castles, and acceptance and love ...

What Else Can This Be
I myself, walk these ghostly paths

As I am today

A captain of my fate

Crying to a ghostly sea

What else can this be……


Flowing oh so gently

Heavenly now

Dredging into unknown waters

Have stayed the course

What else will this be……


Her majesty drowning in the phantoms

Of her forever more

Strength love will prevail

In your walking dream

Journey to your life

Center of your heart

Finding treasures along the way’

What else could this be…..


Leaving behind all turmoil

Choosing calm and tranquility

Souls shimmering

Today is yesterday

With different loves

Yesterday tomorrow

With fleeting smiles

What else would this be……


Pleading voices oddly quiet

Placing in the failing holes

Pieces drifted off somewhere

Or simply left behind

What else should this be…….


Giving your whole heart

Once again

That turns to shattered love

Turning God's plan for grace

Love and peace desire and good

What else has this been......


Sun Love Eyes Of Flowers

Flowing through the everlasting

Holding faith way beyond

Touching greatness

In flowers eyes there is no fear

Singing melodies of softly

Beyond the distance space

What else can it be…..
