Poetic T
I shed tears of dust
They are
Dry,
Barren,
Dehydrated,
Emotions no longer fill my tears,
As one falls it is taken
By the wind,
I have cried to much,
The moisture evaporated
I now keep it in,
Not wanting to show
How much I wish to cry
To let it flood the ground,
Pain,
Sorrow,
Loss,
All could be found in a tear
But if I start, "how can it stop"
I would drown
Be consumed,
In emotions I no longer trust.
So for now I shed tears
But they are but dust,
Taken in the wind
Hiding the real tears,
That flood my soul
Tears never seen, but flow so much
Oh won't you play a little game?
Your life will never be the same
Please roll the dice and stoke my flame
I'll scar your back, you'll howl my name.

Let's not let rules get in the way
It's such an easy game to play
and baby, once it's underway
I'll lead your pretty heart astray.

I am temptation, wicked sin,
suggestion dripping from my skin,
dark secrets writhing deep within
my name a whisper on the wind.

I've torn so many souls to shreds
while hearts decayed and tears were shed,
delight would fill me as they bled
once exiled from my harlots bed.

So heed my warning, hold it true
then cast it ever far from view.
Take your turn, then when you're through
let me be the death of you.
Pillow with tears watered
One drop to leave eyes’ rim
Four lines my lips uttered
Borrowing from last dream!

*Though left me all gone before me
Loves and faces and tales
Not left me the faith of certainty
They only moved to someplace else.

Poetic T
Emotion flows though the stings
Concentration with each finger moved
The energy flows
Mind,
Fingers,
Flow,
The chords wash over me
Emotion Stirs
Eyes,
Mind,
Thought,
Each are touched by the melody
Relaxed mind,
As I float upon the notes,
Not knowing if I'll land.
Pure as the wind,
I close my eyes and listen
The notes I sit upon one
They take me to many lands,
" I don't want this to end"
As the strings are pulled
I just want to
Relax
Listen
Chill out
The violin takes me there,
I travelled upon it strings,
Relaxed in the melody, I wish I was there .

betterdays
the day's breathe
runs thick in my brain.
a heaving mucoudial sigh.

words play tag and dodge
but will not stand still
prefering to run and trill.

the hum of traffic
soporforic....
and it
takes all of me
to concentrate on
the simple art of
driving....

i am at the end of this day
so drawn out and opratically
long...

i sit now, numb,
from all the academic,
angst and drama.
in the car,
in the driveway.

the home straight,
laid out, right before me.

the lights on in welcome,
inside husband and child
dinner for the table
the fires warmth beckoning


but still i sit
here ensconced,
in the quiet cocoon,
of the car, parked in the driveway.

where,
no one wants
or needs , a piece of me.
exceptionally long and difficult day..... not quite
ready for the second shift...
Burning pleasure with each swallow
I love the way you taste.
Eradicate the stress.
Numb the pain.

In search for freedom
Steps to intoxication I take
Consumed in reflection
With each swig memories fade.

No matter the quantity internally vacant I remain.
How many more sips
How many more shots
For the remnants to trail away?

Ethanol
My aching addiction
Course through my veins
Life is nil without you.

Unable to remember
Questioning what was said
Passively expelling secrets
Drunkenly fearless I am.

Drowsiness imminent
Slurred speech
Coordination weak
Emotions wavering

Artery pressure low
Heartbeat delayed
Thoughts sway
Respirations slow.

Inhibitions lessen
Concentration impaired
Reflexes diminish
Hangover in the distance

Another day
Another drink
Inevitably it happens.
I succumb again.

Time reverses the inebriated.
If only time could annul the loss in me.
Subdue the recollections.
Until then sobriety is not for me...

cr
when i grow up, i'd
like to be a ghost
i'm already invisible
to everyone
so i think i'm
halfway there
