Dear You...

My pen writes and flows
Straight from the heart it knows
I write to write
Because I write
I write because it's me

This person or that might not like
This person or not
Maybe so, maybe no
All I know is I like to write...

Because I write for thee
and the poetess in me...

Save Her...

Touching silence,
marigolds and rubies dance with grace
but what about her, the one struggling
with a lover's demon this day ....

The last passion that lies deep,
searching for that high tower
with a look in the mirror
wondering what does she need to be...

Being a master of her own fate
bringing nightmares of the darkness
love keeps fleeing from her life
being not alone in her need...

Climbing high from the top
reaching, grasping and wanting
pain forms deep inside
climbing the ladder of truths to save....

The smoke of her spiritual path
brings her heartache to bare
inviting her to play with honesty
as she watches the butterflies fly...

Debbie Brooks 2014

it was only yesterday, that began my dream. a dream that took my breath away, I just knew, I had to tell you, that the other day was so new, darling please tell me what to do, as soon as I picked up your heart, I can't believe thats its true, oh no, my dream my silent heart is crushed.
You tell me we are one, and then you turn your heart around, darling we who are loved, will never un-love...that crippling fear, that grips you by the throat that makes you know that the un-love was never there.
the sipped rain watches us, cry our silent hearts out, it watched us fall, even though we were so proud and tall, we slump into the storms raging around us.
sips of twisted darkness holds fast to the sinister that bares our souls into each others being, don't you know the love, that fell away, the love tore our hearts out? The sinister held on our lives, that never seems to die?
yes it was only yesterday, the wearing of seasons wore my life away, please just hold me one more time, in the deep dusky hollow of time. as my silent heart awaits my certain fate my dream that took my breath away.

Debbie Brooks 2014

OHHH the first smile, he smiles
her eyes glazes over with want
the eagerness to feel the need
a pleasing grin made to receive
the lips like velvet that kiss
the lips that want it to last ...

They sit and stare at the others souls
one hand touches the others face
pure joy comes from the love they share
laying there motionless with the only sound of breathing
is their heats so meek, but yet so strong
with tears of joy, as he grabs her close ...

The blood that flows, through their veins
is boiling hot as they touch
pleasurable with sight is her smile
engulfed around them with a veil
of pure pleasure the kiss like no other
are the lips of velvet ...

As her hand slides down his form
he lifts her to his love
the music they made together
form their own symphony like no other
from one smile, one touch, one heart
are the velvet lips to kiss that last ...

Debbie Brooks 2014

You were my friend
You held me from afar
You kissed my lucky stars
You sang my songs
Read my poetry
And held me tight ...

As my lover
You took my love
As my Friend.
You took my heart
As my life
You left me barren ...

My lover
My friend
It's been a long long time.


Debbie Brooks 2014

This boundless place for us
rolled into one and into each other
our breath breathing each one
a boundless place to set our sun
as you rounded the the bend
with diamonds lacing my eyes
emeralds rushing where swans
don't fly, is our love you and I
a sea of gold wraps around
our heads draws to our lips
without a name...

We stand in the air, where the newness
reaches our forms, an walk a hundred paths
that lead back to our love,
your eyes and hands explore
on my dainty feet upon the sliver breeze
not able to compose ourselves
is our whispers of 'I want you."
for ever now and for ever then
having been conceived of our lust
our bliss was marked of our ever lasting
mortal state of the twilight of midnight
spent in each others arms....

YOU will always be in my dying arms
with our hopes and dreams sing us to sleep
in between our kisses and wanting
of our passionate undying love...

Debbie Brooks 2014

High atop the hall,
looking for a heart
stands a tin man and a ax
in a empty house with
running blood walls ghoul art ...

Too many hearts
hearts that are never empty
drowning in water-fall of tears
they are misplaced or forgotten
we taste the salt from our lonely eyes
loneliness of fear we wipe away
our fear as it fades in the twilight
our heart is our passion
it can love in the darkness of nights ....

Our shadow warrior hearts
can withstand any war or lose
can never be but a whisper
that only we can hear
whisper of lustful embraces
its never icy blue
with pain of hurtful words
silken always full of love
never looking back
that is what we had ....

Too Many Hearts ....

Debbie Brooks 2014

Every day I sat with pen in hand
thinking with love, your face I saw
holding my heart in your hands
as you threw me away...

Dreams were becoming a reality
hopes were coming final
laughter was flowing freely
but that was yesterday....

Don't know what happened
loving kindness left
tears are replaced
after writing my love...

Dear Darling, I guess this is goodbye,
after writing you this love...


Debbie Brooks 2014

I sit here in the darkness

Hoping for a dance

Looking to the future

Singing my soul to sleep again!


Angels flying

Trying to stay a float

They say I am holding on

And slowly sinking the boat!


I do not want to go outside this night

It’s too cold

For Angels to fly

Saying things are

Going to change

But the emptiness

Just doesn’t understand!

Debbie Brooks 2014

He sits in the park on the red bench
studying his subjects that he loves to write
two pine trees sanding tall
joggers running, wondering what their minds are thinking
is it money or friend or foe?

His look out at life brings others to their knees
one more harness of a beautiful churning mind
he can only wonder,
looking down at the pond, a young woman sits and waits
wanting to go sailing ...

He studies life, his love for mankind makes his heart so kind
closes his eyes to hear the wind,
looking at the buildings in the far distance
the light goes out in his mind, like a house of cards
the injustice of so many brings a damper on society ...

He guides his life back to the normal,
as he guides the ones he loves with a smile
he whispers so silently, love is here, don't cry
we will survive ...

All that knows him, adores him
he holds all beyond esteems
with respect and loving kindness
as he closes his eyes and prays ...

Debbie Brooks 2014

She sits on the earth, looking up to the heavens
tears begin to flow, heart pounds,
she feels empty and lost,
all hope is dying ...

A dream of a tale, her Romero to come
but only horror in tow, only God knew
the nightmare
the dream ...

A dream of lonesomeness to believe, deceitful
and cruel that others have been, feelings
start of corrosion, intimacy
with fools only
weakness
builds ...

Her face is flush, from the hurt inside
anger lives to know she's alive
wiping way from moisture
from her eyes, a feeling
is felt untold ....

Her heart knows she is strong but the bricks build,
more walls to come, the muscle of life hardens
no light or darkness can seep into this
comfort of being one with herself
and her Lord ...


Debbie Brooks 2014

A beautiful butterfly you were
as all watched you from a far
standing by scented embers
with drug impaired eyes,
following by sips of red wine
at that given moment
you looked unsure of yourself
but all were so happy to offer their help...

Your tight hip-hugger pants
slid over your form
not a thing was wrong
could anyone see
oh how I wish I was you
on that rainy day..

Then one day, as years went by
you seemed so lost as I spied you far away
your hair seemed disheveled
your tears ran down lined pale face
the air didn't change as you floated around
like it did many moons before
my heart went to you
as I saw all the distressed...

Dear sister what happened?
did you fall on ill health
did your love fall by the wayside
did it break your heart?

The shadow is closing
a touch of loss still spoke
you murmured so softly
that not many days were
left to live much less pray....

Debbie Brooks 2014

Some where down the crazy river
we meet, heads down, not looking
but a greater passion than we knew
was rounding around the bend ...

As we look around to view our surroundings
we heard a tone in our ears, love for most bearing down
in our hearts ... not just written in the sand
was our life, hearts and souls ...

With a nod of his head, he smiles
reassures me of what is to come,
a love worth waiting for,
as the sun begins to shine ...

Each time he smiles, the hopes and promises
that will come for better or worse
richer or poorer, will be a joy to be
on his arm, as his woman, as a beautiful dream ...

Debbie Brooks 2014

As we merge together

In May

That day I went upstairs

The days were long and gone

Sitting around the table

Visiting with each others day

Looking at the other

Not really knowing what to say

My heart is not really in it

The love has gone astray

With life’s exhaling breath

Looking towards the Iron Gate

Would mark the end to be near

But every note was voiced

Please Not Any More

I say

Come upstairs my love

Let's merge and touch

keep me for you

take me tonight ....

Debbie Brooks 2014

I felt your touch against my shoulder, your lips to my kiss

My tears to your soul

The begging starts, ‘please don’t leave.’

The reality of you gone

Darkness of my soul comes, and tears of falling rain....


The need to wrap my limbs around the touch of yours

You are the one that melts beneath me, in my mind’s eye;

My smile of yesterday is gone now and the pain of love not to last

Only a picture of our love, the memories of endless time

Coming awake to the summer, then winter, spring and fall....


Years and years of melted pain never really knowing

Then one day I find you with a life of your own.

Just to touch your face with my fingertip.

A forbidden love that is now I guess.....


Softly it will come to be, I pray, the long lost love of yesterday

Your rhythm is another for her to know

The year has come and gone that pain that I have felt

No more whispers in my ear, no more love torn words.....


I will sit in this room, living in the past.

No more heartbeat will I hear, only of pain that lasts

If I have regrets or feel inadequate. Or blindness for apology;

To regret that my smile of yesterday was not born today

To believe in second chances, to believe in you....


Our love affair so many so new

To kiss the kiss of yesterday, to hold a hold of today

My existence comes from you I say

Below the colored lights did not pass the test

Sweet songs come from loving you if you sing it sweetly,

You gave me you and you asked for nothing.....


How it must feel to light the world, as you walk safely.

My weeping never stops as I hold you in the darkness of the moon.

In my mind’s eye there you are the torn love that is worn again

Let me fall asleep in side of your touch, through all storms,

As I said in silence,

“Always the smile will be of yesterday and tomorrow has come and gone.”

Debbie Brooks 2014

The Past is the Past ..
loneliness creeps right in..
the heart stops for a second
makes one wonder and ponder what is going on..
Tears fall like raindrops on a dry day in March
Spring slowly creeps in and surrounds us like the misty dew that it is..
those that shine through the deep mist of life will be like fallen snow ..
that sparks through the distant on the edge of the inevitable fade of the life that once begun..
Folds of mountain streams
like a breathe of nature's curves
spreading around the cascading rain
the moments I felt I belonged
were seconds that I was actually  alone
nothing familiar comes my way
as I lay here in this forgotten grave



Blessing my friends..
Debbie Brooks 2014

Sit me in front of this beautiful fire
speak to me your poetry words
as we drink our glass of red
as the evening flows and our laughter explodes
your hand finds my hair as it travels my neck
and yes I cant wait another moment
as your lips touch mine
with one swoop you take me in your arms
across the rug....

The moment is at hand
you touch my face and your eyes
memorize mine, and I knew at that moment
I would be yours..
Yes darling this is my fantasy ...
the night you make me yours....

Our night you took my shoes off and read me your poetry..

Debbie Brooks 2014

Some people live for their pain
people like me
sometimes wanting to dream
and not being able to sleep
to dream one more time
to know and learn
seems so useless
unable to move on
you see the world sees us as ants, wanting love, and getting smashed instead. the fundamentals of life .....

How sad all those years are gone.
Her heart was broken.
The sweetness of love
Destroyed
Kissing
The sadness
Goodbye
Something in the way he kissed
Made her believe in now
To look for the future
Of love to make
With the one
Of her heart
Sorrow
Overtook
Her spirit
Then came peace
Those were the sad years broken...*

Debbie Brooks 2014

You walk into the room
dimly lit I see
take me by the hand
holding firmly to me
tracing my mouth
with each finger so lovingly
with the tip of your tongue
guide me longingly....

I try to catch my breath
wanting it never to end
reading pretty words
in my ear to blend
with the kisses planted
on my neck so sweetly
telling me no fear
you will be there ever more....

You see this Dream
I am having of you and me
is trying to wake me
I am fighting so reluctantly
I want those hands
to hold me tight
and never to leave me
and stay for the night

Pulling me closer
to your hot form
keeps me wanting
more and more
so I pray this dream
never ends
Oh sweet one
sing to me one more time....

By: Debbie Brooks

n morning sun, I ask you
will you walk with me....

With the rise and the fall of every breath
I cry to you, will you walk with me...

As rays of light, cast away darkness
will you still walk with me....

Remembering our birth design,
as the morning sun sets
as the darkness falls around
to brightened our conscious
the rise and fall of life
the tears that become
that fall around our souls

I ask you and I beg you,
will you walk with me??
Debbie Brooks 2014

A briny deep of ink blobbed in a single drop
trembling at the tip of my head,
sliding to my toes, poised above
the golden trees of old parchment.
Deeper than the stroke of rouge
opera, with touch of light
and sable in the eyes, with
a love just as passionate
as when my heart found
my muse, and first penned it ....

How simple it would have been
like a rose that has risen our
love, like a bloom, more within
our flower, that you kissed,
days live within, for many suns to see,
moons reply, where Angels fly
and ride chariots of gold.
To love the hand that guide
my heart within loving seas
that rest under my loves breath
that is set deep in my eyes .....

Debbie Brooks 2014

My body shall soon come within and burn
with virtuous care with the inborn passion
as he outstretched his heart to bring me forward
to his loving embrace, and kisses so hot
that melted my flower, no pretense did he vent
as the love flowed through our being ...

The bliss was marked with everlasting spear
oh blessed movements that brought us to new heights
of proclaim freedoms of satisfaction
as the closing hours brought us deep within
each others souls, and his hardness that brought
me to complete my moans into eternity of laboring lights ...

Let my hands be the player of his keys, let my body haunt
haunt his brain, running to my side, of lustful music of the heart ...

Debbie Brooks 2014

Can I be your Angel
your baby or love
can you take me as I am
or as you want me  to be...

Many words are so deep
leaning west ward I lose my sight
our love can be such sweet delight
a romantic passion so much more
or just friends in towers of ivory clouds....

Can we give distance  to wings of love
and heaven to abide till we see each other
now together we could own the sky...

Can I be your Angel
your baby or love.....


Debbie Brooks 2014

Dear Kind Sir

You could be the kiss
You could be the one I dream of last
The longing that lasts in my trembling
The far away feeling that has me penned to the wall..

Dear Kind Sir

You could be the Kiss
That envelops me one more time
That takes me on trips in my mind
That holds my very heart, that treats me kind...

Dear Kind Sir

You could be the kiss
That wakes me up under the covers
That holds my hand as you watch me dance
That tells me, your be my knight, so far as we are lovers...

Dear Kind Sir

Just one more kiss
I beg to see those eyes look deep in mine
Tell me you long for my love, just one more time
Just one more kiss, do or die...

Debbie Brooks 2014

Resting on the step,
close my eyes and concentrate
I sit comfortably
as time passes by
I see more
I see life
I see You
its been a great climb
to my higher place
in peace and harmony ...

So I meditate ...
On.....
My journey that shall be ending this day ....

DEBBIE BROOKS 2014

Hello old friend
so nice to see you again
yes its been a time
oh no, I am on my own, have been awhile ...
\
It seems like forever
as the days and weeks have flown
the children have grown
you say, you have seen him around, where did I go wrong??

The day is breezy, kind of hot to
sickly I know, bruises of blue
no kiss was mislaid, only night
that was so new, I feel this way
you see, the sickness follows
my heart still breaks, the day he left
cries of help fell, with no one in sight ...

What did you say, he looks good?
does he ask for me?
No, oh dear.... thats okay, it will be just another day...

Okay, see you around
I will go on my way,
it's been another long
heart wrenching day,
another unhappy move along not caring,
Oh, he is happy you say?

Does he still have those baby blues
that ripped through my heart no matter what he would do
please don't tell him you saw me, I don't want him unhappy
Can't you see. that would only hurt so many, not just me and you ...

Debbie

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 ...


Debbie Brooks 2014

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...*

Debbie Brooks 2014

You said, forever and ever
there you were reaching for me
maybe miles apart, but it didn't matter
because you said, forever and ever ...

So much as it remains in us
is the ability to love, and your forevers
are forever, I can feel it ...

Love that has grown, it will make us one
you make me speechless, breathless
full of emotion of pure love
yes your forevers are forever ...

You are mine and I am yours
and this is our forever mores ...

Debbie Brooks 2014

these are only words
words I can't explain, pain never goes away
it comes and goes, beyond mention ...

arms are like led
head hurts so, just let me go
as it comes and goes, beyond mention ...

walking down my life, while my body burns
insults fill my heart
while I pretend all is well, as it goes beyond mention ...

i don't want to think anymore, but I cant seem to get it out of my head
i wonder if words ever think of me?
so why am i ever struck with the pain, that goes way beyond ...

now the hurtful things go way beyond, why aren't you here
i cry, tear after tear, and I wonder
if these bones will dissolve and go way beyond...

Debbie Brooks 2014

Lady of the wandering sea
She was fifteen
When he came wandering by thee
The leaves would fall that very autumn
He saw
The wind blew amongst her hair
She would call
Oh lover, please take me here
Where butterflies are yellow with dawn
Life is green in the spring
Year after year would come
Left time of regrets be sown
In the full strength of years to be
Of the ages of blue diamond’s you'll see
So years would simply breathe one more breath
Lies one more day till death
Simply year after year
When she was sixty three
One more day
Was she*

By Debbie Brooks

In our timeless paradise
our dreams reach the other side
heart- to- heart of spell bound love
calmness and desire we caress
the gift of us in our dream ...

The night is coming, the sun is fading
laying here, emotions take over
we try to devour our reflections
with a heart so full of sweet rapture
alone with these we own ...

Waterfalls floods our cheeks
a cry for love,
entranced into our delicate passion
sweat drops on our lips
would you come into this dream ...

Debbie Brooks 2014

he wants me bad.. I know he does,... he keeps sending me looks..

AS I sit here the looks you throw
tears me apart,
the atoms of my body breaks into
my destination, is a world unknown
my wants, wants to run,
my soul, screams into eternity
there is too much too do..
maybe I don't want to do this
maybe my heart is screaming no...

Maybe, just maybe France looks good this time of year
maybe I will leave.
I believe in second chances, but baby not with you....

Someone so charming, so far away
years against us, I know not what
bruises of blue, no kiss mislaid
no shuddering of bodies
do I belong ...

Looking deep within
too many smiles to be
this sleep of dreams
a kiss from both aching hearts
a whispering wind blows our way ...

One of the same soul
so many lives it takes
we taste it other lips
while petals of roses fall
dear one so faraway
I love you so ...

Debbie Brooks 2014

Open Your Eyes my Little One

Oh, young one

Sitting close to the door

Open your eyes

To see no more

The pain and Hurt

Locked into your broken world

That drew you inside

Won’t help you soar

Don’t let the lies take your soul

Just remember to breathe

Remember to let go!


The beautiful smile

Will win the hearts

Many of the young men

That will try and dart

Young one, sit yourself

By the window and dream

Till you heart

Bears the scars that mean


Black or white

Doesn’t mean a lot

The beauty surrounds

Your beautiful face


The love you will find

With lots of hurt

Do take care

Not to get burnt

Little one, please open your eyes

Small one, just try and breathe

Don’t listen to the lies

My sweet one you are born to love.....

​Debbie Brooks 2014

The woman said to the stranger..
you ought to have seen me when I was young
The stranger said Little girl,
I have in my dreams
The woman said to the stranger
I wish you could see me now
The stranger said Little girl
I see every night in my dreams
the woman said to the stranger
I am dying now it seems
the stranger said to the woman
I don't care, i still love you in my dreams
the woman said to the stranger will I get to see you in heaven?
The Stranger said to the woman..
Little girl I am waiting for you now!!!


Debbie Brooks 2014

That rainy night

Writing me your heart

Holding the unknown

Like love in the chest

Emotions ran high

As you kept me so tight!


Not knowing what’s to come

Sitting at my window

Imagining I saw you at the gate

Running down the lane to your flying arms

With no plans for tomorrow

With a love so true!

Through oceans of tears

And a broken heart

So incomplete

Knowing we must part!

Promises of love

You would be back soon’

A year went by

Expectations were high!

Waiting for that plane to land

With a letter in hand

You came in a coffin, my love

I stand with tears that are breaking me down from above.!

Now all I have are little pieces of time

Hoping upon hope to find

A little bit of you that is ever so true

In our little boy so new!

You handed me a song from your heart.....*

By: Debbie Brooks  2014

The years have flown by
little sparks here and there
lots of hope and more tears
ohh so many for me ...

One birthday then another
lost a sister along the way
mom went to the way beyond
dad couldn't live with out his love
and followed right behind ...

Happiness poke his head
around the corner one day
but it didn't want to stay
what right is happiness
when nighttime forms its head
and I lay my tears to bed ...

This doesn't mean I am sad
I have been very blessed
but shouldn't there be something else?
I know maybe just maybe
I could feel again ...

I guess feelings have been dead
for so long I know
but maybe just maybe
I could feel again ...

Debbie Brooks 2014

A portal which penetrates deepest thoughts,
secrets desires and fantasies
is clouded, trying to remember what was said
what was done ...

She sleeps peacefully, unaware,
as he peeks over to look at her loveliness
pondering these thoughts as he sits in a chair
in the corner of the room ...

The magic in the room brought on
warm love from the night before.
Soon she will awaken with thoughts
of her own, will she stay? will she want
his arms once again,
will they have charm and magic one more
time ...

The day was breaking, coffee was brewing
with cobwebs still lingering, he opens the blinds
to let sunshine in, she appears and smiles
with clothes in hands, slowly getting dressed
'what a beauty she is', he thinks;
as she walks out the door,
throwing a gentle kiss and wondering...

'One day, she will look at me', he thinks,
'and love me' ...

'One day, he will look at me', she thinks,
'and love me' ...

Debbie Brooks 2014

The first time so sweet
you took me so longing
lay me so softly
told me so firmly
I was to be yours ...

Tears filled my eyes
it had been so many years
you brought so much joy
to my heart, and body ...

Sweetheart, this is our first time
this is the love to be
this is my life
my happiness
all because of you ...
