Dear Heather
I remember the time
When your father came up with your name
That fine saturday morn
The sixth day of May
I remember the time
When you wailed in my arms
You promised with your innocence
That you will never do us wrong

Today you sleep on my lap
Taller than I am
Busier than I was
Lovelier than I ever could be

Go to sleep my beautiful baby
Remember that I am always here
You are all big and grown
You are now fighting this mighty world.
To me,
you're still that gorgeous infant
I held memorable decades ago. .

The way he looks at me

So lovingly

Whether dolled up or between hair do's

Whether I’m smiling or in a bad mood

He speaks my language

He sees what's inside me

A love bound first, by INTIMACY

A couple hold each other at throat
Blood running, dripping from all over
Breathing heavily into one anothers face

The filly loosens her grip
Leans close to the guys neck
And licks the blood up to his lips

The guy looks at her and gives a sadistic smile
He rubs her neck and then
presses the razor of a knife
to her stomach

The fillies gasps sharply
as she feels the knife
being pressed hard against her


(unfinished)
Silent steps I hear
creeping in, coming near
Distant rush coming close
keeping me on the toes

All the senses on alert
making me to convert
My excitement on the verge
timely seeking to emerge

My asylum just a place
to lay down my broken face
But it’s not safe anymore
I need to find another door

It’s time to throw the glove down
To wake up and look around
To feel the love from my friends
To see the world through their lens

*It’s so scary to just go on feeling like a black swan

I cut my psyche open
And the ink bleeds black
Days surpassed
Suppressed inside
Spill onto pages
been Waging war on myself for ages
Depressed by the weight
Of the world
On my shoulders
Just gotta keep on keepin on
dancing to my own beat
Stay on my toes, won't pull The rug from under my own two feet again
Seeking forever in pursuit searching
For a place to rest my weary head
At the end of the day
I fumble, trip, stumble
Fall on my face, humbled
Rendered incapacitated, jaded, numb
But my perspective is refreshed
So I reluctantly succumb
I've accepted the fact
I'm leaving my past where it belongs
Time to wake up, open my eyes
It took so long, but now I realize
I was living in a haze
hypnotized
Manipulated and propped up by lies
empty promises now fall on deaf ears
No mistakes here
Only lessons learned
Another page to turn
The other cheek
Countless passages and chapters
To burn
Won't be dictated, won't be defined
Can't be distracted, the day is mine
For the taking
There will be no more faking my way
Through another smile
I''ve wandered countless miles to make it where I am today
And I'll be ****** if anyone tries to stand in my way
