I felt in my bones
accepted and seen
I felt picked up
Cherished
Loved
"You are mine."
Not a question
Not a comand
A statement of fact
A release of such pent up fear and frustration
My body shook with it
And I was one with the Earth
One with Him
And all was
Finally
Finally
Right

I have to be strong for other people.*

This is all that I know.

I cannot, must not, break down
in front of another human.  
My pain takes a backseat to theirs.
Cast aside, on my own comand.

I still feel the pain, however.
And when I'm alone...
Sometimes, when alone,
I remember.
I break.
I hurt.

Then I walk out.
Ready to take on another person's burdens.

The bigger person.
That's what is expected.
Don't be childish.
Show some disipline.
Stop whining.
You're to old to be a child.
When was i young enough?
When?
I don't remember.
Just the comand,
Be the bigger person.
Don't cry.
Don't be angry.
Don't whine.
Don't feel.
Be a rock.
Let them hit you.
Don't  retaliate.
I raised you better.
No.
You didn't.
You weren't there.
She took the job.
She tried.
But i was a rock.
Like you want now.
When did you turn back into a child?
Back?
BACK?
I was never a child.
Never.
Not once.
You ruined that experience.
I try.
I try to do what you wish.
But I need memories.
Sad.
Angry.
Happy.
But no.
I'm not allowed to feel.
That's what your words say.
Don't feel Tori.
You don't need feelings.
They make worthless consequences.
Like you.
You break my heart.
When I need to cry.
Scream.
Celebrate.
Now.
All I have are words.
On a page noone will read.
If they do.
They wont care.
Wont know the truth.
I do.
Always will.
Be the bigger person.
Ya, I know long again.....

The loud thumping from high places
From the stalking in small places
Erie eyes around the corner
And suffocation without warning
He stalks me from room to room
Eyeing me down in displeasured doom
From early mornings and late at night
Hes overly attached and still uptight
How he rules from his furred throne
If you didnt know by now than consider yourself told!
His baleful glance can stun grown men.
He promptly plops down and states demand
King Doodle rules ons comand!
But how sweet his face is in delight that you can not help but give to his plight.
No matter how many times you trip being mad just doesnt stick
Not to this ball of sweetened demand
King Doodle we are yours to comand.
A cat poem for my demanding companion. King doodle of the fluff kingdom.

my bare feet kiss the grass
feel it tingle between my toes

my arms burn on the sun
feel it cook all the way up

my hair dances with the wind
feel it mess around in waves

my eyes close in sync with my heart
feel the life of you

and i climb to the sky
grab the sun with my hands
let the love burn
it is supposed to hurt
i would give it to you
the sun and the other stars
accept my humble gifts
accept the love i give

for the rain can come suddenly
and god can comand a flood
and the pretty flowers
don’t need that much water
and the little animals
don’t know how to swim
so accept my heart
take my sun
let it all be okay
let god not interupt
the beautiful circle of life
nature is always inspiring

Note to self
P@ul I don't worry about you
for your not the revolution kind.

So why are you playing Startrek Fleet Comand
with such passion at night
score now 76.000.

Will I be ever a millionaire
will I sleep at night
tomorrow is another day.

How about that!
Merry Christmas from Me
LOVE and KISSSSSSSES P@ul.
