Scarlett O Mar 2014
In my dreams
he comes to my rescue.
In my fantasies,
he climbs the Mt. Everest sized wall,
and fights off the guards
to discover
a part of me
so long ago buried,
so rarely a glimpse caught.
He would cherish
and protect,
the fragility
of my hidden self.
But my great wall is
IMPENETRABLE
IMPERMEABLE.
And he
would NEVER
try.
Scarlett O Mar 2014
I'll show you mine
if you show me yours,
there's no end
to the less and;
the more.
Put it out front
On the Merry Prankster bus.
Heads that turn,
on stiles of morose,
sprinkled in
dulcet dust.
Fleeting;
Freeing;
Binding;
Everlasting.
Jeckyl & Hyde,
they took my mind.
Scarlett O Mar 2014
Never trust a Prankster
on this Merry bus.
Heads;
And beats;
intellectuals and,
Flower children all.
In the heat of passion
or the distance of disease.
I mean what I say
and say what I mean.
But they;
With ill intent
or goodwill ecstasy,
Always in dissent.
Plague of lies
and ill begotten fantasies,
scrupulously denied.
Sui Generis.
Out of the Abyss.
Scarlett O Jun 2013
Stolen kisses
And bitter goodbyes
Whispered truths
And ardent lies.
The sun had set,
without intent,
to ever rise
again.
Scarlett O May 2013
My heart has strings
Strings that used to dance
Above a stage of red,
Beating the perfect rhythm.
But he tugged
and he pulled,
And my heart strings lost
all tenacity.
Now they hang,
limp, lifeless,
emotionless.
Attached and unattached
To a heart that lie
Broken and black.

— The End —
