Samhain time

spirits are free

***** and lime

share our company

Smirking at our silliness

smugly knowing we'd scream

if they showed a willingness

to swim in our stream

If there feeling naughty

we'll experience a feeling

something wierd and creepy

our senses left reeling

We'll put it down to atmosphere

or wishful thinking

truth if we knew would cause fear

our hearts sinking

So leave them alone

it's their moment

cause them to groan

and you they'll torment

You.
Yes you.
Gosh.
You.
I love you.
And you lie.
You say you care.
You use you're smooth words to coax me.
To coax your way back into my heart.
You.
You there.
You've stolen me.
Stolen all of me.
All the goodness.
You.
You don't even know.
You.
You say you want to stay.
You.
You say you won't hurt me.
You.
You're going to be a liar.
You can't help it.
Because I'll either be,
Too much,
Or,
Too little.
You.
You scare me.
You walked right in through the front gate.
You.
You didn't see the warning sign.
Beware.
Delicate heart.
Easily loves.
Easy to hurt.
Fragile.
You.
You just walked in.
Now.
Now we wait and see.
I want you back
my friend.
Not as the hybrid semi-lover that you were this year,
But as the friend you were for twelve years before.

And that's all I can write
I can't see now, through the tears.
I wish to unplug
The primal urge.
Life would be much simpler in its absence.
I wish to turn off
All turn ons.
Disconnect
Unwanted connections.
The bill is too high,
And there's always the risk of
an explosion.
I want to be the flirty girl
In the floaty dress,
With the flower in her hair
Forever.
I want a portrait in the attic,
Growing wrinkled, drooping, dying,
While I dance through the city, luscious and buxom,
Not a care in the world,
Enjoying being 'different'.
Freeze time, I like me now.
It's taken years for me to get here,
And I don't want to leave.
I don't want to be insignificant,
I dread becoming invisible,
I want to just stop,
And be where I am,
I want to be me, now, forever.
Bit shallow of me, but hey **.
Don't tut at the karma thing,
And roll your eyes
Like I did.
There's nothing supernatural about the concept of fate,
But there are lessons to be learned,
And if you dismiss all,
You will become insular, and brittle.
Don't stick ******* up at what the world can teach you,
With all it's coincidences, comebacks and reveals,
Accept everything that's thrown at you, absorb it, respect it,
Learn, evolve, grow.
