I am left to wander in the depths of my despair.
A dark place; no light, no hope.
Perpetually crippled by deathly demons.
The selfish satans seeking insuppressible sadness and pain.

I, the lone wanderer, musn't give in.
A direction is beginning to take shape.
The lone wanderer will find an escape.

What I Wish

Sep 2012 samasati

What I Wish

Hurt numbs the heart
Makes it cold
Makes it almost
Unbearable to hold

I just want
Some one to love
Thats all I ask for
When push comes to shove

For a partner
For a friend
For a lover
To love me to the end

We dont always
Receive what we wish
But could there be an exception
To this painful bliss

I want to hold your hand
I want to hug you tight
I want to shower you
With delight

I look forward
To this day
When we can kiss
Love and lay

Calm the rivers
Calm the tides
Calm the ocean
Hope they all abide

To the words
On my lips
Dripping off
My finger tips

All I want
Is a lover
I want a passion
That will burn brighter

Brighter than
All the suns
Shine down your love
Never to be done

Without love
We are wild
Survival is key
Hate is mild

So take these words
Take them to heart
Our love is just
About to start

Bitter-Sweet with Breathing

Bitter-Sweet with Breathing

One
Last
Time
Breathe, just once.
Breathe with me, darling,
Breathe in the airs of treasures lost
And battles won,
Of breath that’s out
And of love now gone.

Breathe with me,
Just once, my sweet,
The last to remember.
For I know now,
That as the old grandfather clock
Would clang and beat
To the sound of wedding bells,
The heart now aches with sorrow,
A bitter, yet sweet, sorrow,
Like that of death
And loss.

Deceptively Blue Eyes

Deceptively Blue Eyes

When I met you, you were standing/leaning/being awkwardly there,
in the corner of the room.
Not quite invisible, but you didn't really stand out either.
You just sort of... were.
And I noticed.

I noticed because there was something unmistakable in your, you-ness.
Something that did not fit with your ironic tee-shirt and dark mop of hair.
One thing that stood out from your quiet still frame.
But it wasn't the way you seemed knowingly amused by the goings-on around you.
And it wasn't the way you shifted your weight so subtly but still animated, almost like you weren't real.
It wasn't even that quick smile that split your face in two when your gaze met mine.

No, more then all of that, what caught me off guard was your deceptively blue eyes.

Me.

I'm stubborn,
You'll never be right,
I'm temperamental,
Even on my best nights,
I'm cold-hearted,
Even when I try,
I'm not anyone you want to meet.

I take chances,
I run away from my fears,
It's a new place every night,
I can't be controlled.

I can't admit to what I need,
I can't ask for your arms around me,
I'm a mess,
How could you love me,
I love that you love me.

You may be taken,
but every time I see you
I can't help but hope.

I told you so

I told you so

They warned her about him,
But of course,
She didn't hear,
For her mind was elsewhere.

She felt as if she were floating,
Flying high throughout the sky.

Then he cut her down.
And she fell,

Hard and fast,

And all they said was
"I told you so."

But her feelings hadn't melted,
And her spirit hadn't died.
So she went back to him,
To give him another try.

And she flew and flew,
Until he cut her down.

And all they said was:
"I told you so."
