I hate the way I                              **F                                A                                  L                                    L**                                        in love With a whisper That LOOK you know the one I mean Always with the one I know will leave. Is it really love that I crave Or an excuse to wallow in my misery?

Falling......face first
*Huddled in the shower The hot spray mingling with my tears As I gaze back Through the shattered years Trembling and shaking I saw you today I ran and hid Tried to think you away I thought I was fine I thought I'd healed Thought I'd recovered from The power you used to wield You stole my sanity I was just a little girl Who'd never had a father When you entered my world For eons you used me You dragged me into hell And when I escaped I thought I'd get well Almost two decades Have came and gone But today I discovered My mind is still wrong*

You don't give a **** About us vets You pay us lip service And leave us in debt Cancel our appointments But when we call To reschedule you act Like WE dropped the ball I've been waiting 2 years For my ****** up shoulder You keep handing me pills And my will grows colder Now three of my battles Have taken their life Today one shot himself In front of his kids and wife Oh, NOW you care? **** OFF VA, SCREW YOU!!!** Just hand me my pills Like you usually do Oh, why are you angry? You must not like to hear What most of us vets Have heard from you for years **** you too, VA

*You haunt me in dreams That are tinged with the vibrant echoes Of our nighttime phone calls*

haunted dreams (haiku)
*Your soul mirrors mine I see every scratch That is reflected It's like our scars match My heart is stretched out With shimmering stands That reach out to you Across the lands But they don't have to stretch From the gulf to the Pacific For the stands of your soul Reach out for the specific Parts of me that match you At last they join together Though the distance is far It's like we're together For our souls Have always been Connected unseen Soon together again*

reaching to you
*For so many years I wandered Through the night With your sister Selene, Laughing and smiling: A grim facade So no one would question me. Her cold moonlight Allowed my charade to go unnoticed.* *Little did I know that you, My very own Helios, Were floating through my night unseen On the flat underbelly of the earth.* *Then without warning I saw your other sister Eos. She taunted me With the first of your rays, Giving me a glimpse Of what it meant to walk in your light. Snatches of the impending dawn Teased me with their muted hues.* *Suddenly, you in your golden chariot Peeked just over the horizon I tried to flee west; Afraid to believe The warming rays emanating From you could be real. I tried to uproot the gleaming tendrils From my jaded heart But I couldn't outrun the sun.* *So I gave up trying. I turned to face you. I kept my eyes closed at first, Cautiously Letting the radiance of your being Illuminate the damaged corners; The scars of my aura Layed bare before your brilliance.* And still you came. *So I opened my eyes And saw that every scar, Every damaged piece of my spirit Was made beautiful Before your smoldering gaze.* *Joyously I took your outstretched hand Now I wander with you Through the painted mesa skies From cloud to cloud In a leaping pirouette Never to allow the night To take residence in my heart again.*

Weather in Dixie (10w)
There are times I feel like my brain has shattered into a million shards of ice Reflecting the rainbows of the sun's light Each color a memory that I can't shake free And there are times I feel like the world is mine Like every millisecond is a luxury of sights and sounds Sleepless weeks alternating with weeks of sleep The handful of pills never quite evening up the scale Tortured dreams from which I wake screaming or paralyzed Unable to do anything but fear But even in the worst days I look back on my lifelong roller coaster ride and remember this: You can't enjoy the ride if the track stays flat. If your car doesn't sink it can't rise

On Being Bipolar
It don't take much to make me happy 'Cause I'm from the south I just need some good soul food To cram into my mouth Or I can sit on the creek bank With my best fishing pole Casting my line expertly Into my secret fishing hole A moonlit hike into the woods Will soothe my achin' soul Them city folks don't understand It's better than silver or gold When Sunday rolls around it's time To get myself dressed up The laying of hands and speaking in tongues Will come if the Spirit moves us There's a glamour to the south Like a work of art that's living Even the poorest of the poor Open their hearts and are giving So call me a redneck or a hick It doesn't matter to me I'm proud to be a southern girl There's no place I'd rather be

Southern Girl
explicit Let the strangers be scared again, my dear It's finally my turn to incite fear Last time I was your sweet innocent angel This time I'll be your Jezebel The underwear you ripped off me and cast beside the chair? I'll use them to bind your wrists then grab you by the hair. Then I'll pull your head to the side so I can bite And scratch and bleed you until your pain turns into delight I'll kiss you with your blood on my lips and force you roughly down My yellowish eyes filled with evil glee like a demented clown I'll bite your chin and slither down Nibbling and feeding at each place I've found Until I reach the place you want to be touched There's fear in your eyes now; you see my bloodlust Then I'll start caressing Teasing Pleasing Until you are begging Pleading Needing And you break free of your silken chain To remind me once again Why I'm a daughter of Eve And you're a child of Cain

Let the strangers be scared (again)
I'm not myself when you're around I sink back into old habits You make me giggle like a teen And I stutter and blush when I hear your name Your voice sends shivers down my spine Your hazel eyes like forest pools Tiled with the falling leaves Make my blood rush to my head Your soft full lips were made to be pressed Against mine with bruising strength Your strong arms to crush me to you In a hearted embrace And I was made to live for you My hair to curtain your face as we kiss My nails to dig into your back My yellowish eyes to hypnotize you Into not feeling quite like yourself

Clever you Sadistic me You think you've won But you don't see The sinister plot I've laid for thee Clever you Sadistic me Terrified you Elated me I've gagged and bound You to a tree You eyes are pleading SET ME FREE Terrified you Elated me No more you There's only me That's what happens Without loyalty I loved you You cheated on me No more you There's only me

The Real Reason Dolphins Like Humans (25w)
My dear son I pray you'll never know How cruel this world can be I pray your charm and dimpled smile Will be your shield I see these sweet kids just like you On YouTube Thinking the world is their friend Being lured with kind words Then beat down Being invited to do the ice bucket challenge Then doused with **** and **** All they want is to belong All they want is to be loved To be on the inside for once Instead of outside looking in Sweet boy, I hope you'll never understand What the other kids mean When they call you ******** I hope you never cease to believe They're laughing with you Not at you But more than that I pray You'll be like the other kids someday Able to communicate Able to drive a car Get a job Go to college Get married But for now I'm grateful for each advance And I pray that one day I'll be worthy of you

To my son, though he may never be able to read it
She says that she's sorry, But don't believe She is nothing But a thief Not sorry she stole And whose only thought Is that she's sorry She got caught

I'm sorry, I'm not sorry
I want to be where the night hags scream As they feed off the fears of man I want to live where the nightmares are dreamed And survey the scorched desert lands I want to hide in the goblin's lair Slipping out for a taste from the *** Where he cooks the men who journey there And feasts on them while they're hot I want to fly through the midnight sky With the vampires who feed On unknowing victims from throats and thighs I want to see them bleed I want to live like it's All Hallow's Eve Titillated all year by every scare But since I can not I do things unseen So, my dear friends, BEWARE

Halloween All Year
A double handful of children you raised Way back in the olden days You made their clothes from flour sacks Did work that'd break a strong man's back Your husband kept a drink in hand And gave away food to the band Of children living down the street When you could barely make ends meet You were so talented musically For any instrument you'd see You only had to sit a while And soon your music would cause smiles You loved to dance the jitterbug In the parade in the back of a truck Though some said you were too old You simply smiled and told them no I always loved it when we'd fish And it is my finest wish To tell you great-grandmother dear Though you are gone you are still here

A Short Ode To Virginia Cardwell
When I first saw you And you saw me too Sparks of passion ignited my veins. I looked in your eyes And tried to disguise The fact that my heart was riddled with pain. For you had a girl Who was your whole world And all of my love was all in vain. So I bided my time And sipped on my wine And silently prayed that one day That you'd call it quits And after the split You would come to me and say Well I like you baby Do you think that maybe We could spend a few lazy Days alone? Or maybe talk on the phone? Cause girl you know You drive me crazy. You make my mind go Fuzzy and hazy. So tell me baby Do you think maybe?

Do You Think Maybe
When I feel the thunder crashing   I imagine it's the thrashing Of my sweet sadistic lover Snatching me out of the covers When I hear the storm winds howling I imagine it's the growling Of my lover in the night His eyes filled with evil light When I feel the rain drops falling It makes my mind start recalling Tears my lover brought to me From pleasure and pain mixed expertly When my lover leaves me bleeding Fully sated but still needing Another ***** romp with him But next time I'm S and he's M

The Storm
The autumn winds are blowing fierce They gust across my face As I tiptoe through the woods Beneath the leaves that fall In a gentle rain The cinnamon smell of loamy earth Greets me with each step I take As I tiptoe through the woods Beneath the branches shaking loose Leaves that have seen better days The pop of mushrooms underfoot Their fleshy insides I now see As I tiptoe through the woods Beneath the kamikaze leaves That give themselves to the autumn breeze

Autumn Breeze
There is a very secret place That exists between day and night If you're patient then some day You may see the land of Twilight. The gates to enter are so slight If you see them it may seem A trick of the sunset's light A fairy's passing dream So pay heed to the change of time For lilac hues of coming night Truly love to pantomime The secret land of Twilight You'll know when you've timed it right For the spangled fairy wings Will lend a softly shimmering light To a host of other things Pregnant dew drops standing by Patiently awaiting night Stars twinkling a lullaby Before they take their dazzling flight The creatures of the dark that bite Are sharpening their pointy teeth On the last of sunset's shards of light Surveying what's beneath Should the Moon, empress of this land See you taking in these sights She will take you by the hand And lead you gently into night And you'll wonder all your life Was it real or just a dream For in the secret land of Twilight Things aren't ever as they seem.

I'm Amused (20w)
I am Long hair and swinging hips With natural pouty lips A smile that hides my intellect A piercing gaze you can't forget I am Long legs with large soft thighs With yellow flecked eyes The sweetest of your dreams The nightmares that evoke screams I am The girl with the skull tattoo Who wants more too The bringer of your pain Who only wants the same. I am She who died inside Until you made me rise
