Replace
You lay there like an angel

Something so exquisite

I can't let you go

I touch your still frame

Why did you do this ?

I  caress you just to see if you stir

You have been my everything for so long

Your hair is flowing

Angel wings protruding like the  ribs on your back

Starved  for attention

I wrap my arms gently around your soul

Whisper into your ear "Why baby did you let go?"

There are traces of white dust on your perfect little nose

The void in your eyes will never leave my mind

I always thought you were perfect

Now just so still like an angel ghost

My baby darling I'm  left behind

As you lay perfectly still

I say some prayers hoping someone,  somewhere can hear

I lift my arms so gently into the air

Smell the linger of your perfume coming  from your hair

Look into your delicate face one more time

From that moment you leave

I have never been able to replace you

Into The Earth
There are moments we create
Holding dear
Holding near
With expectations and hopeful dreams
The very second we foresee the future
Going with the flow with no particular place to go
But In an instant it can all be gone
I envisage being young and free
Not feeble and somber
When my days were not yet numbered
I look into the mirror
I don't recognize the person looking back at me
Perhaps I'm a ghost
Floating through this so called life
On a diet that goes directly to death
It came and took me
It came and shook me
My race is ran
My time is out
I have decayed all of what I use to have
With no longer will I crave
Take my phrases
Take my words
Bury them with me into this earth

All A Daze
It's been forty three days since I have been in a haze
Yet I walk around in a daze
Not sure what to do with my time
Could sleep for hours but the nightmares won’t escape

Inhale You Into A Line
Your just one more addiction
That I’m not willing to take
If I swallow you down will I fall to the floor?
If I inject you into my veins would I thrive?
If I inhale the scent of you in a fine line
Would I bleed and would my tears dry?
Your just one more addiction that I can’t fake
The taste of you I could drink all day
Make me sober making me mad
As I hit the main line I need more
One look into your eyes I get hungry
I yearn for more
Swimming inside of myself
Drowning into you
Don’t know if I can survive another lie
Your just a risk that I can’t take

Feed The Wounded
Crowds die whimpering
The ocean starts to decease
Wounded by love
A sweet baby bird at peace
Where loneliness is real
And moonlight dances in the air
Silent affairs across the room
Exposing the scars that hound
My body is in a cage
That feeds the burn
When time tries to make us leave
There is nothing else left to give

Seaweed Bones
Skin of linen and hair of marmalade
Seaweed eyes where lovers drift away
Lopsided lips trembling with unspoken words
Charcoal eyes patch my worries
Your winged eyelashes catch my dreams

I am a woman

Proud of me

Afraid to take chances because of what could be

I am only 32 a mother of three

Been hurt so much its like a ******* disease

My heart is good I mean well

I love too quickly and learn slow

My soul is uneasy

My hair is a mess

My eyes are blue I like them the best

I try to be honest and have lots of faith

Sometimes its hard and it causes me to ache

I am who I am and nothing more

Either you like me for me

Or you can go out the door

I can be to loud at times and push you to the extreme

I can be wild and I can be meek

I am a women of all sorts

This is what defines me

I will not be ashamed

I shall overcome the fears I have

Facing them all along the way

Alive
The music settles into my soul I hold you not wanting to let go
I may not know for certain
What will happen in my life
I know for a fact I adore you
As the candle light dances off our bodies
We make one I look into your eyes
Needing your touch one more time
To make sense of this life of mine
To answer all my why's
Deep into the night
Its you I want to see in the morning light
And in the evening making it all right
Touch my face hold me as close as you can
You make me feel youthful in so many ways
Make me alive
I'll make you mine
I like early in the morning everything is fresh and new

I enjoy the smell of your perfume and waking up next to you

I love the sound of your laughter it takes away all my blues

I have so many memories that all consist of you

You and me make two

Then you went away from me and left me all alone I can't seem to find you

We had a love like no other

I loved you better than any other

You would delicately dance so graceful and pure

Your soul is that still near?

I know you had to go away sometimes I may forget your name

May I call you dear? I wonder when I grew old and my hair turned this color?

I look out this window that I now call home

Its not the same without you

Do you dance about so delicately like you use to?

Have you remembered my name and my tender ways with you

My body is so feeble and my mind is too

I am sorry if I forget I don't mean to my mind isn't what it use to be

Either is my body? I sit in this chair I cant hardly move my legs

If you come home right now I couldn't dance anyway

I look at myself and wonder where the years went

Being so young and growing so old

I don't think I look good in old man clothes

I hope you hear me at night when I pray sometimes I cry and want to go away.

I will see you once again up in the sky I can remember the day you died

My heart was broken I no longer cared I miss you like crazy and the wonderful smell of your hair.

I am going to come and see you just wait for me I will unite with you

Have no despair in the mean time I will wait for you

Hoping and longing to have you near

I love you and miss you dear

My imbalance for love is unsettling
My heart flourishes until the dusk of day
When the night comes and loves us away

Blinded Creed
An angel in the stomach of poetry
Eating  the spirit that makes me bleed  
Betrayed lips that force me to drink
Blinded hands deprived of touch
The distance of my creed

Empty Air
I shutter as I pray
To the glorious god
Shattered and startled, my beloved is gone
As the mourners throbbed with internal pain
The sun shined that day
But all I saw was black
****** and burned is how you were found
I pleaded and wailed into the air
That is the moment my heart split
All my dreams unraveled that day
As I lay awake at night
I see your arctic shimmering eyes
Your radiant skin against mine
I untangle you in my sleep but the sorrow doesn't ease
Angels I ask of you to embrace my treasured
I will never see what my son looked like
Did he have mommy's eyes?
Or my nose?
As I taste the solitude I can't help but wonder what might have been

Feed The need
I’m not perfect nor meant to be
I have hips that bear children and ******* to feed
Scars across my stomach that gave life to thee
A body that can easily sway
Loving hands that can nurture but also be free
I tend to wear my heart on my sleeve
Through shadows on the wall in the hall
I hear you cry as you tiptoe towards me in the night
We just laid down and started to fall
I tend to your needs forgetting of my own
Its what a mother does even after the child is grown

Old Stone
The lies live in your windpipe tonight
As the stars pop and the birds fly  
Lingering in suffocating guilt
Beneath grace where flowers sang
Stones on our lips we stay

Clocks that ended with the pain
A willow tree full of tears as we weep
We travel to the country side
A dead breeze held us away
My lips are full of flaws
In this blackened room without fight
The smoke began to apper
I beat the earth with all my might
Go to the top of the moon
To find the forgotten place
Someday I want to be forgotten. Lead the way.

Shackled Soul
Melodies weaving tragedies on tightrope bones
As I  cross the scar tissue bridge my grief reverberates
Lacerating the fabric of my beliefs

Cheap Whore
Why did you try and save me ?
All I wanted to do is forget
Why did you pull me out of the tub?
Throwing away my pills, when I needed them to feel
Losing my clothes and your trust
I acted like a ***** for drinks ,never had to pay
This is a shame that will never go away
Let me silently submerge into stillness
I will not flail my arms or cause a scene
Nor will I inhale for life

Fatal Flaw
I sink with horror into my own corner
The shadows begin to devour my sorrow
As the wind rises
My skull screeches without a sound
The journey lets me down
I wait for the flowers that will never arrive
Your my fatal flaw
Hunger embellished in your claws
As the towering tree twists
Pulling my breast consuming the breeze
Tasting my tongue ,  I have something to say
I dismantle my thoughts with my finger tips
Bitter and bleak
I unravel the crumbling tears that fall
As my spirit withers
A colorless blanket of fall

Happiness
You are like everything I have ever needed,wanted or desired

Like the 4th of July

Or  a cool soothing rain

You are the reason I exist

The sun that sets way up in the sky

Your my dream come true

Almost to good to know

Its like Christmas every single day

I shall let you unwrap me discover what it means

I let you live in me

See inside my heart

The wind tickles across my face as I step out into the winter night

Your arms embrace me

Making  me need you more

You sleep so peacefully I watch your eyelashes against your skin

Fall in love with you all over again

Wake up in our babies arms

I dont wish for you to be any different then you already are

I will shout I love you from the highest mountain top

I am the luckiest girl

The stars in the sky couldnt make me any happier and

Your the reason why
I would like to add this poetry is older I wrote alot of these in 2009 It's interesting to see how the stages of life changed me so much.

Feeding My Spine
The lights dance across the bar
As I wait
I don't want to shine just for anyone
The gift I have to share is a sin  
I don't normally sleep around
But this heart of mine is gone
If you enter me I will be complete
I will grow weak
With your fingers like spiders nibbling at my spine
Making me crave your touch
And then I will be  a typical whiny ***** and complain
Why did you **** me?
Do you even care?
I'm such a fool
But who cares
As I ***** out the remnants of you out of my throat
I choke on the hollowness that lives in this place

Feeble Frame
Throat of my spine
Place my bones on a ledge
As my lungs of trepidation is bruising the sun

Attempting to speak as my vocal cords are severed
Taking what I have left and leaving

Weeds Inside Of Me
I come down from the ozone
So I can see me
I don't like to feel
It's much to real
So I take another sip
Down a handful of pills
Close my eyes and scream
As my thoughts spin me around
Then I'm on the ground
Consuming the dirt and debris
That lives inside of me
As weeds sprout inside my stomach
With vines that choke my innards and intrude
I have skin that I use a cover
To protect my sins

Waltzing Traveler
I scrap and peel the patchwork of the earth
Half written dreams dust the floor
In the crook of her neck we drown
Secrets eat away the floor
The petal of her taste nips the winter pain
Bird travelers taste the treetops
Torn like a page from the language of your touch
I'd split my bones to place you indside
The day seemed so young as the floors begin to moan
A hummingbird sobbing in the deepness of time
As the night dreams
Any suggestions for a better name for this poem.Stuck in a rut.

Hairspray Milk
Hairspray sweaters

Coffin Of Melancholy
Lady melancholy tiptoed delicately through a coast of pearls
Abroad this foreign land,unearthed a valley of intruders
A excursion into the map of my mind
Borderlines swaddles width and magnitude
Interconnection deficiency
Mothers peace fearsome journey
Discovering  hidden truths
Rituals, rites and symbols
Opened by lighting the temperance of truth

Nonsensical Brain
Kaleidoscope twirls clutters my brain
Embers of carnality  enslaved
Your name dictates my tounge striking shame
Leaving your fountain ink
With a warriors thirst  ,stumbling upon oceans of bones
Mountains of heartbeats and moon dust
Horizons of haunted *******, burning hair with  withered flesh

Taste Your Bed
Speak to the voices that live in your head
Proclaim all your secrets
So you can taste your bed
The fragile interior allows me
Reality unsettles me
As I try and come down from outer space
I’m just a displaced trace of nothing in its place
Calm your worn bones
Place them with me
Twist and distort the circles above your head
The tension you feel keeps you high
Rest your vertebrae let me sew you to sleep
Give me your veins and blood and such
I still can't find sleep
Why wont you let me erase?
Minutes and hours became my enemy
Slumber will come
Don't fret just reflect
A coma may come soon in this lack of your empty space
Lethargic if you may

Adrift
Ups and downs
Completely through and through  
Sad and happy
Mad and sad
Been all over no mans land
Been gone for so long
That grass grew and almost took it all
Can’t see the house I once called home
The trees need cutting its obscene
My roots are buried have you seen them here?
Sow them all over in that dirt if you see them again
Perhaps a bird came and flew away with me
I could just be alone under that fern
As bugs come and carry me away on a Sunday afternoon
I may even end up in the sea
Suspended and drifting to the bottom
Maybe I’m just dust
486 · Jul 2012
The Slumber
I would like to conceal myself in the bottom of the earth  
Tasting and smelling dirt
I may be cold or would the earth heat the soil?
Could I feel wind underneath the warmth?
Will my eyes flow freely as the tears pour down?
My body will ache with desire but it has no use
I will have no sense of time
In a slumber that is my mind
Nobody could take that away
Peace that fills my space
Oh so silently without abuse
Who’s voice would I hear
Perhaps it could be mine?
I have not heard it in so long would I recognize the sound?
Can I hide never to reappear

Manic Kiss
My lovers womb became chiseled with scorn
Beneath photographs and circle kisses
You had nestled another in
Under your sternum interlaced with valleys of cartilage, your ribs became a landscape
I had journeyed across your spine
Baptizing the hollows of your delirium, ending up with warm bruises
On sleepless nights when clouds where corpses, I held on
I had been your eyes when whiskey, would not allow you to see
Decomposing mentally, metastasized into my existence

Recollect
Elegant eyes
Natural beauty speaks
You create poetry as you move
Naked white shadows drift
Clear lips that dream
I would go into the darkness
Struggle and bleed
To empty you into me

The Open Wound
Broken beautiful yet exquisite
As love spills into repulsive awareness
When the vicious exterior fades and awakens you
These moments delight, yet torment you
The sweet open wounds
The secrets vanish
You can’t repair damages once it is done
Run and be free
Drink up what’s left of my love
But do not give it back to me

Manic Painting at 3 AM
I'm a fast talker, amazing lover
Poor loser, kiss stealer
Shoplifter, job quitter
Impulsive as hell, can't concentrate for ****

Mood swings and insomnia
Try some Lithium you'll fell better
Tremors in my hands, can't get my **** up
Stomach pains, dizzy as ****

Depakote this should work
Double vision, hair is falling out
Uncoordinated, moody *** *****

Tegretol
Saphris
Abilify
Kapvay, so much more but my mind is sore

I'm on top off the world I have it all
I'm perfect look at me
I'm going to become a famous poet, no a famous actor,
no a famous director

I'm useless,  ugly, fat unspecified
Nobody cares about me anyway

Look at me I 'm beautiful
I feel great today
Let's paint the living room its only 3 am
Live it

Knock Knock
Kiss the waves as there is death at every door
Time crawls like tears
As words fall slowly
Balanced upon my chest
The window in my mind is full of fog
My broken round tongue pours water for the sun
Naked sky is fading as it whispers goodbye

The Blue Bird Weeps
I’m just a weak mild bird
That is so fragile
If I cry my feathers weep
I’m nothing fancy
In fact I have no shine
I once had wings and I could fly
But that ended long ago
As you can see
Please close your eyes keep the secrets from me
Today I wish not to be found
I’m a nighttime bird with nighttime blues
Watch me gradually flow away
If only you knew

Looking For A Dream
I have a house made of paper

A house made of dust

When you put your hands on it there is nothing to touch

Gathered all the strength I had

Put it into this

Composed what I thought I knew

Existed as this

Crumbled falling and poor

Lost along the way my home hit the floor

Searching for something so I know I’m real

Looking to the streets

Looking for a meal

Put this bottle to my lips

I’ll be warm for awhile

My legs are tired my soul is asleep

Then as darkness comes there is a job for me

I’m full of shame bitter and hate

I can defeat

I study the cracks along my path

That I have walked so many times before

I see the same old man

Looking for his dreams under the stars

I look for a moment just to see

When the next one will come for me

Up against the building so cold

I fall to my knees stuffing the twenty dollar bill into my jeans

As this stranger walks away

I raise my hand to the sky and I begin to plea

Save me from this hell I’m in

Wash it away take my sins

I pick myself up off the ground

Go to a little coffee shop just down town

The people stare at me all battered and cold

It Burden’s my heart just to let you know

I want to shout I was once was like you

My house crumbles between my fists

I take the warm coffee let it hit my lips

The lifeless color in my eyes

As I look at my reflection I ask why?

Out into the cold September night

Wrapping my arms to cocoon myself in

Fighting for what

Will I ever win?

As I drift and my mind roams

Looking into the next day

The winter moon will be coming soon

Will it ever erase the pain I feel

Or take me back to what was once real

Something solid something I can feel

As I close my eyes heading for shelter

Hiding behind my enclosure

The rain starts to fall ever so light

I feel the need to just fight

As the streets call my name

Tonight its my only friend

I study the brick like a piece of art

Where and why did this begin

To the stars and tears that fall along my way

Give me hope for one more day

Injest My Brains
Ripped clothes lay here on the floor
Your by my side
I can’t even remember your name
Mine is called shame or so I’m told
Make up running down my eyes
You down my thighs
I push and I shove
Watch you race down my throat
Losing my patience waiting for relief
I don’t have food but my addiction is full

No saving you
Livid all of the time
I want to cradle you forever more
Living on the bottom of my mind
Living in your blood stream I’m your hell
Eating your brains out
No more questions just lies
I  beg and crawl through the base of my head
I need to be carried away to a place where I can be safe
When the bugs quit attacking my skin
And the voices will agree what to do with me

Velvet Sky
Your velvet breath comes
As the morning sky is born
Celebrate and devour peace
The broken timid breeze
Lingers and torn
At your young wild steel heart
That is on your sleeve
A naked prisoner that has no way
Stream through the secret desire
Into the ocean glass up into the free

Scarlet Blood
You sure look pretty in that shade of blue
When my hands touch you and what they make you do
When will you listen to the sound of my voice?
Do I need to drown that defiance out of you?
Let me touch your ******* whenever I feel
Don’t act like you don’t like it
It will be fine
Close your baby blue eyes
Want me to cover your mouth?
Nobody will hear you scream
If you do I will really show you what I mean
The scarlet blood is so pretty on your delicate face
Are you worthy for anyone but me?
I don’t think so and you’ll never be free
Come here be on your knees
What you have a word to say
I don’t think you will be heard not today
Look at what you made me do
Now go and lay down and then we will be through
With that pretty shade of blue that brings out the black in those eyes
You know I have no patience
I will not wait for you

Away
I do not whisper in the shadows

Or look beyond the sunken sky

I only wonder what happened to you and I

When did my search be empty as can be?

Did someone forget about me?

I shall not forget the darkness for it always prevails

But I can only be what is  true  for me

Another woman who struggles everyday

To weep among the lonely

Fight with no gain

Celebrate on the outside as I slowly melt away

Umbilical Stew
I want to brew you into a cup of Tea
With your baby's breaths and embryo nectar
Would you keep me warm inside?
This cold has never gone away
I still count your freckles, hold them in my hands
Every speck of earth I pray
My resilience has become leftover umbilical stew

Astronaut Vocal Cords
Bloodied paperbacks, stolen vocal chords
Anguish smelling of smoke stains
With barred teeth and chapped lips
Onyx eyes and pallid seamed skin
Sharp cheekbones with a hawk nose
Strong confident hands eerily familiar
You offered me the universe you offered it all
My house of bones is eroding away
The ocean of demons wants to set fire to my heartbeat
You as my muse should collect the galaxies
Rediscover the abandoned worlds that live in my head
Astronaut sunflowers echo through my chest beckon my youth
As grief is my lover
I've muted my lungs

Letting Go
I shall stand beside you

I will honor you

Let you have a voice

Let you speak your mind telling stories of when you were 9

Your golden hair is so pretty and pure

I lost myself in the blue of your eyes

I have no self control when it comes to you

I hold our baby son he is all you

My insides weep for the day that we found out

You may die

Gathering the strength we had and moved forward

I didnt think it would last that maybe it would go away

I watch you everynight as your weary head hangs low

Amazing your still so strong

I cant let you go you belong with me

What to do if you leave

I'll have no purpose or no cause

I just want to spend my days with you

I bring you daisys your favorite flower

You smile at me like no other

Your hands are feeble you try and hold our son

He is getting to be to much for you

He just started to run

I know that you are ready

This seems like a lie

Maybe someone isnt telling the truth

There is a cure and it could work for you

Years of memories

I stand beside you as you close your eyes saying your goodbyes

One day I will be with you again

I'll love you until the end

I will honor who you are and tell our son about his mom

I cant even look at him without feeling sad

I will try and be the best dad

I stand beside you even after your gone

Loving you so much

Missing your touch

When the angel wings touch you as you fly with them

I will know that your safe

You dont hurt there is no more disease

Just a little girl about 9 or so

Playing in the fields

Letting the daisys tickle her toes

I shall love you

So I will let you go

Feeble Fields

With secrets in my stomach
Tangled in the corner of gods throat
Quiet hours in a angels room
Fresh kisses of fate
The remains of the memories will set me free

Me
What is the truth?

Who are we to decipher what is hidden inside

To make up the rules of what is believed to be the truth

Prehaps mine are different then yours

Sometimes I just want to give it all up

Head out the door

So many others telling me what to do

Want to hear the truth

Smell it on my tounge

Whiskey will do it

It always speaks for me

Not afraid of ones feelings

Makes it short and sweet

You have a simple choice either accept me for me

Or leave

Shall I repeat myself so that you understand

I will not be afaid of the certainty that I come to believe

Its all I can be

It is all ME
