The words I've lost are too many.

My ignorance has spoken for me too many times.

I no longer feel like a part of myself,

My voice is not my won.

Stay, stay.
Don't leave me astray.
Life became as dull as grey
When you left and walked away.

The moments are slowly fading
But here in my heart you are staying
As much as i want to forget you,
My heart still says i love you.

So wherever you are, please stay safe
Cause here in my heart you will stay.
These memories are hurting me
But i know someday i'll be smiling with glee.

And I am a Woman
who so knows herself
my inner power
alive and kicking
more as each
Blessed year
passes by
My light growing
my blood flowing
into the Universe
as it speaks through me
I have strength
that could electrify
a thousand stars
gathered over many years
of my life's battles
and wars
Mine is a quiet sort
Of fortitude
unstoppable with tears
I am my own warrioress
When it comes to my fears
I have my guides
and they know me well
goddesses and angels…
old friends
wielding
magic spells

But nevertheless
I have
A vulnerable side
Underneath the layers
Of protection and pride
an enchanted forest
of moss and green
a sacred space
that only few will see
Inside this inner sanctum
I am as soft as
fine silk
I let down my guard
as emotions flow
like milk

I am an unlikely
desert flower
Who just wants to
open up to you
to be opened
petal by petal
to receive the waters
of your tender care
most vulnerable
with her
stamen exposed
to be cherished
in the cool night air
I am delicate
as tiny spring buds
caught in the
harshest winter
storms
yet who persists
despite the odds
to keep her
cold spots warm

There is a rumor
In the foreign lands.
Some say
(especially in the East)
I have the elixirs
to tame
the most savage
kind of beasts
(Indeed,
Sometimes
as they come for a
sweet, well deserved rest
lay their huge, furry heads
upon my tender breast)

As for you, my Wild One
I think I hold the potion
to the key to your heart
to your beautiful soul….
Yes, poetry in motion
I want to bring it such light
Ignite your embers
To a spark
I could fill you up
So much
You just might not
feel your inner
Dark

But there is something
important to remember
The One who finds my key
Is the one
Who will be crowned
Defender
Of my tender soul
In all its hues
And asymmetry
Oh, Please, my love
Use it wisely
With the most loving
Of discretion
For under the armor
My heart beats raw
Laid bare
To love and passion

Otherwise
My pain will have no end
And I will have to go
Into battle once again

Now
Inside my
sacred cave
I rest
Need to re-charge
For the next
Battle cry
Lift up
Your heart,
To me, my love
Release it
Let it
fly

Now I'm left trying to figure out which of the broken pieces of my heart, that lay before me, have your name written on them, because they don't belong back in my chest.

-F.T.

Give me the moment and the privacy to touch and be touched by your valuable words.

Gently whisper your love with your misunderstanding finger, teach them to love each and every inch of me; where this sinful act, can be justified by our godly love.

Help me conquer my reckless mind, for you have already conquered my slaved heart with your seductive soul and now my heart kneels to your ever commend.

One thousand large books
a painting never finished
a song never heard

If my heart were to speak the words I'm about to write,
If my heart were to pour the things its felt,
If my heart were to scream the pain it faces every night,
Emotions would be felt everywhere even the sun could melt.
Silence is a coldness that's felt down the back of our spines,
Its also deaths answer to an oncoming misery.
I live my life feeling love for someone whose always on my mind,
Life is a mystery, it haunts me with my history,
Overwhelming me with a fear of a fake victory.
As my tears drop on the papers I shed my feelings upon,
With bloodshot eyes back against the wall I'm leaning on,
Thoughts lingering, flowing like the rivers bleeding,
Define life for me I need to find a meaning.
Then I remember the glow of your eyes,
Suddenly a new light, and the blueness of the skies,
A new air as I take a new flight, rising from nothing to fly.
Your hearts glow keeping me warm from deaths chill,
I thought I was lost but you've strengthened my will.
Like rising from a new life after being killed,
A blank expression like fear instilled.
As i picture you in my mind, your ocean like eyes and silky hair,
Struck in awe grasping my heart as I'm thinking of you it fills me there.
I can hear the stars speak of a new light, a new plight,
Prayers answered no more lonely nights.
The moon brighter than ever as it beholds your beauty,
Am i dreaming will somebody shoot me?
Celebrities make me joyful but not the way you do,
Like my heart was running on a treadmill a good truth,
And my love for you is true too,
This is my life, and I flew too.

Only if tomorrow comes
will I be with thee,
For if tomorrow never comes
our love will never be.
Unlike the changing winds
of time the memories live
entwined,
and if
the morrow never comes
your heart will still
be mine.

All I need is one like,
all I need is one like,
that's all I need.

All I need is one pen, one page.
one mic, on stage all night.
my fans engaged, inhaling my words
is they fly off the page. one light
so bright, they see my point like the
light of day. One line that blows
their mind for days. One person to
believe, they can catch their dreams
before they leave. One life is just a game, of
truth or dares you to care and live in
fear cause life isn't fair vengeance
in the air that's what secrets do. evil
people make their love seem beautiful
smile as they look down at you
buying love with coupons that
are over due reality is pitiful
these haters despicable with envious eyes
they criticize never give the credit due
too busy trying to edit you
my ******* up to these haters
this one I put up just for you

All I need is one like,
all I need is one like,
that's all I need.
