I wish that you would speak to me
I miss you every day
I want to listen to your words
no matter what you say

I'd stand by you
no matter what you do
or how you live

your silence is the only thing
that I cannot forgive
I feel like
the sky
one moment before
the lightning strikes

knowing it will go through me

that I will be
electrified

only not knowing
what it will hit
or from which side

I Am

I am free!
I am happy,
I am enough.
I am beautiful,
I am me,
No apologies.
This poem is for anyone out there that might think that they are not enough... you are!  In the past couple of weeks I have been doubting myself... last night these few words came to me.  This is the only way I want to see now.

Some day you’ll be
Staring
At piercing globes
Lost for words
Mesmerized
And entranced
Until you near
The peak
Of what
You thought
Was unreachable
Of what one can see
In the immenseness  
That is
The universe
Of you.
we are just beautiful
people walking around
thinking of other things
saw an episode
of my life
and was not impressed
i can not see
never been able to
i just pretend
not real
i know there was  time
i loved all the world
i think i was eight
if fired upon defend
yourselves with intent
death goes on and absorbs all
cigarette smell room
the scent of *** pounds the air
essence of journey
