"divorced" poems
We used to swing under the big willow tree We lived 3 doors down from each other We were princesses who fought dragons We could save the kingdom and find our prince by lunch time Our moms laughed and talked about how cute we were Four years old was a cute age Fast forward a bit We went into elementary school innocent and young Boys had cooties Girls had cooties Kickball always ended with someone getting hit in the face We would always sit out field and pick grass and shape it into a little birds nest Life was good Until your parents started fighting and I mean really fighting. It scared me and I would have to go home I would make you come with me three doors down Our moms didn’t laugh anymore By Christmas break your parents were broken up and divorced Eight years old was a confusing age Junior high was mean. Girls would rip you to shreds and then hang pieces of you on everyone’s lockers Boys just wanted to make out A whirlwind of uncontrolled hormones We were the quiet ones Always flew under the radar Just trying to make it out alive We found a little spot to eat lunch under the stairs where no one would go We giggled and talked about boys who didn’t even know that we existed I remember crying in the bathroom with you because people were brutal and we weren’t good enough Our moms worried about us and how distant we were becoming Thirteen years old was a sad age Highschool is another story You were put in the hospital for a month I was left at school alone I had to find more friends I found most of them were fake So I ate my lunch in a bathroom stall Reading all the swear words that were carved in the wall You were really sick and we grew apart We were always close We will always love each other You tried to save me from myself But I didn’t let you Seventeen was an important age Now we are at different colleges I tried to **** myself while you were getting an A on your anatomy test It’s sad We don’t swing under the big willow tree or fight dragons anymore Our moms hardly talk You are a success and I am a failure We don’t really mesh I miss you every day I’m sorry I can’t be good enough for you We were princesses who lived three doors down, we saved the kingdom. I love you I’m sorry this has faded Just like everything else Nineteen years old is a dying age.

we were at this table, men and women, after dinner. somehow the conversation got around to *** one of the ladies stated firmly that the only cure for *** was old age. there were other remarks that I have forgotten, except for one which came from this German guest once married, now divorced also, I had seen him with any number of beautiful young girlfriends. anyhow, after quietly listening to our conversation for some time he asked us, "what's *** now here was one truly touched by the angels. the light was so bright we all looked away.

Last night, while I lay thinking here, some Whatifs crawled inside my ear and pranced and partied all night long and sang their same old Whatif song: Whatif I'm dumb in school? Whatif they've closed the swimming pool? Whatif I get beat up? Whatif there's poison in my cup? Whatif I start to cry? Whatif I get sick and die? Whatif I flunk that test? Whatif green hair grows on my chest? Whatif nobody likes me? Whatif a bolt of lightning strikes me? Whatif I don't grow talle? Whatif my head starts getting smaller? Whatif the fish won't bite? Whatif the wind tears up my kite? Whatif they start a war? Whatif my parents get divorced? Whatif the bus is late? Whatif my teeth don't grow in straight? Whatif I tear my pants? Whatif I never learn to dance? Everything seems well, and then the nighttime Whatifs strike again!

I see a ****** of crows parting the sky with a ********** V it hawks and blecks down as if to say good afternoon to the child wheeling across federal on her pink bicycle— a travel that rots and witches the sweet, grey air sailing into clouds of pounding tide— jewels colorless and divorced drifting across the blue-domed pearl of missing you

*I'm too fixated in each moment - Each moment feels so intense, I'm lost On the dark side of the moon, And nothing here has any warmth, Worth or substance ~ Nothing here makes any sense. Even my own shadow has left me. The Monsters, still lurking In the darkness, Have stolen all of my hopes And dreams away, I can hear the wolves, They are hauntingly howling - There's nowhere safe that I can run to, On this, here, dark, dreary day. There will be no stars To light up the pitch-black night-skies, They have already fallen, Just like the Angels That I once loved and knew, Everything that I once held onto As sacred, has been molested - I've been abandoned, once again; Hell, again, I am being forced To walk through. Alone, I was born and raised, Only my pain has been consistent- It has held my hand Throughout my entire life. At some point, somehow, I stupidly gave birth To expectations, Luckily, I woke up And divorced reality, Hence becoming solitude's Dedicated and loving wife. On the dark side of the moon Compassion, loyalty and trust Are nonexistent. Evil dwells in almost every man And woman, Each with his or her own agenda, Each with his or her own selfish plan. Saviors do not exist, Superheroes all wear masks, Unconditional love is but an illusion, Here, I revert to relying solely On the harshness of reality, For, the truth, it always exposes And unmasks. The dark side of the moon Is a very lonely, isolating place, In which to dwell, There is no sunshine, No stars or Angels - The only light visible Comes from the flames Of the evildoers' Raging fiery hell! Placed here against my will, No lush green valley in sight, Taken away From the divinity of nature, I was cruelly robbed Of my radiant life-giving daylight. Doomed for being too real, Too open and too honest, Doomed for loving too much. Doomed for believing in superheroes, Doomed for allowing a human To become my crutch. Doomed for being too empathetic, Doomed for being too sincere. Doomed for being too kind And too generous, I'm doomed, abandoned here. I blame only myself For allowing my intuitive awareness And intelligence to fade away Like the stars that once adorned Every exquisite night-sky, I blame only myself For not using the blessed insight Of my third eye. I'm too fixated in each moment, Each moment feels so intense, I'm too passionate about life To give up and remain imprisoned On the dark side of the moon... But I'm too emotionally weak And disappointed to jump the fence. By Lady R.F. (C)2018*

I don’t speak for everyone, I can only speak for me. I don’t want a silly toy to Make me feel weak at the knee. I don’t want a handsome savior, Riding in on a white horse Just so years later I end up Sad, fat and divorced. I want to be myself, Open and free. No one on this earth Who should chain me. Not outside of privacy of my bedroom. Can you blame me?

Candlestick lit, predatory form divorced Daybreak take your feet Assault me with rough dissonant hands Take from me your bright request Down in the valley curtains part The thin plane light overflows Without light-seeking caresses in the clear sky Bold accommodations of the sunbursts To Save Appalachia The displeased living hear of me With Vivomantic symbols After blackened nights begin Fornicating on your birthday Off his downswing that has passed... "How the call it is unfulfilled your mind, thoroughly healed Terrestrial white feathers And tame plains lament Yet less tame after His darkness heals you". That summer day when the rain shaded shallow And as dull walls divorce the Bejeweled earth. You don the nakedness of supernatural awakendness Painted by these symbols Aiseralam spoke... Appalachia The displeased living hear of me With Vivomantic symbols After blackened nights begin Fornicating on your birthday Off his downswing that has passed... Candlestick lit, predatory form divorced Daybreak take your feet Assault me with rough dissonant hands Take from me your bright request Down in the valley curtains part The thin plane light overflows Without light-seeking caresses in the clear sky Bold accommodations of the sunbursts To Save

Birthday In Appalachia
I hate love songs. It's just a sappy little tune of someone else's expectations. I expect certain things for my life But they'll never be what is written in a song Love songs are like movies. People write songs and movies about people living happily after ever. Well that's completely false. Because no one lives happily ever after. We watch these movies and listen to these songs and build up our own expectations Only to be let down when we realize that this is reality We think "Oh I want a love like that." When really, there's no such thing as true love. Right? I don't know. That's kinda how I think of it. Love songs **** Because we latch onto what that person is saying, hoping we're gonna find that someday But look at how hopeless we are I'm so hopeless I don't know what to think about love There's so many degrees of love Finding that true person who just happens to know everything about you And likes it. And you like all those things about them But why? Everybody's all like "love is such an amazing thing." Like there's no faults in it Like people don't cheat on each other And people don't break up with each other for no reason Like there's no back-stabbing Like it doesn't ever fall apart because you have the glue to hold it together But what's the point of love when there's so many faults that come with it Let's face it Everybody throws the word "love" around like it's a baseball "I love you" "I love you too" Bull. Because then it ends and it's like "Oh but I thought you were in love?" I wonder if love lasts forever. I mean nothing lasts forever I wonder if you can stay in love with the same person forever I mean how's that possible? Don't you get sick of looking at that person? Don't you ever feel like being with someone else I don't know. Maybe I'm saying this because I've never experienced love With anyone special Just meaningless relationships From my youth that I knew would never last Then what was the point of being with that person Fun? It ***** to have a hopeless crush that you know will never happen But maybe it never happens because you DON'T believe I don't know. People should find that one person Everybody has a God given right to find love They need to find it the right way People have one night stands with random strangers How can you honestly make love to someone and feel something called "love" to someone you just met? Like how? You shouldn't give yourself to someone you don't know In my opinion, you shouldn't give yourself to anyone unless you know you're gonna spend the rest of your life with that person And I'm not just saying that because I'm a Christian I wasn't planning on giving myself to anyone before I was married, before I found God Sure, that's a part of it Because *** before marriage is a sin But I didn't have an expectation of having *** with anyone before I was married And the only way to know if you'll spend, "forever", "eternity" With that person is not when you put the engagement ring on But the wedding ring Because an engagement ring means nothing It's just an announcement that you're planning on a future It's nothing set in stone People might say, "Yeah but you can always get divorced." When I get married, that's not an option. Because why would I throw something away that I know can hopefully be fixed? People might say, "How can I not have *** in this relationship?" It's easy. Don't. Love is so fake. And yet, so real. I have love songs But listen to them all the time because I build up that expectation But let's face it We don't always get the fairytale we want I hate love songs for one reason You expect so much in your future You're waiting for that prince to come save you But come on. That's fake. I hate love songs. I hate love movies. I hate love.

Modern Day Cinderella Everyone knows the fairytale a precious little girl growing up in hell with her step-sisters and step-mom of evil that want nothing more, but to trap her in her shell. As you all know their plan to hide her away and keep her from her prince failed miserably. This story can relate to a girl I once knew. Though in her story she isn't saved by a fella, this is my modern day cinderella. Coming from a broken home, so nothing normal ever known. Parents divorced before the fighting could be imprinted in her memory. Two years later her father remarried. So all the sudden she had a new family. Things were okay at the start, until she got a little older. Then it all started to rot. The stepmother turning green, full of envy, turning mean. Father always working late, her mother off on drugs wasting away. No one was around to notice the change, to see the pain on that little girls face. Her step-mom made her cry everyday. Hate was the term, used on a regular basis. The fear this women created, evil ever so jaded. Picking up after her step-sisters day after day. Who loved to use their anger to make fun of her, tease her if she didn't appease them. Spending all the time she could hiding in her room for hours upon end. They preferred her to be non-existent. There came a day where she became brave and decided to take a stand she played her hand escaped the fate she was trapped in breaking the chains. Ending this story I tell ya of modern day Cinderella.

Love and the gentle heart are one thing, just as the poet says in his verse, each from the other one as well divorced as reason from the mind’s reasoning. Nature craves love, and then creates love king, and makes the heart a palace where he’ll stay, perhaps a shorter or a longer day, breathing quietly, gently slumbering. Then beauty in a virtuous woman’s face makes the eyes yearn, and strikes the heart, so that the eyes’ desire’s reborn again, and often, rooting there with longing, stays, Till love, at last, out of its dreaming starts. Woman’s moved likewise by a virtuous man.

Stigma
*death: an abnormality— deep prints left by heavy boots filled with water and washed away by summer’s end. grief: a metal sensation denude of coldness—swelled up again and again from life’s ***** driving deeply.* I suppose you couldn’t help but steal away. you (now endangered ghost) left your trace fossils moted, gray and cold. our memories of you divorced from the mountain’s path— a wound raised higher and higher to a crystal peak where your soul was plucked cleanly out. we built cairns to mark your going and stories to signal your inevitable re-arrival. we welcomed the heavy contact of fire felt in the middle of the chest and watered arches cut beneath the eyelids. we felt the frigidness of lit feet gliding above mountain frost and set forth your eternal journey to the solar eclipse. but somehow we lost your trace fossils frozen in the rock. *where did you go? who found you? why?* these are the questions of extinction of the physical body but the soul is unmatched in its uncertainty. if it exists, it leaves upon time of death and reenters when looked at through shielded glass. *soul: a mountain view, black and polished by an unfurled moon. its brother sun not far behind.*

the trace fossils of you
“Grades are getting low, the teens are getting high. That 12 year old is pregnant and her parents wonder why. A 1st grader is swearing, a 3rd grader has been ***** Just take a look around you, isn’t the system great? Who isn’t faded these days, teens are sending nudes, kids are getting beaten, the teachers see the bruises. No calls for help are spoken, teens are smoking **** young girls are cutting, this isn’t what we need. The marks of taunt and yelling, parents are divorced. That 14 year old is drinking beer, this can’t get any worse. A little girl has killed herself, nobody seems to care. Another kid has been expelled for a stupid dare. But it needs to change. Our world is officially broken. It’s time to take a stand; your thoughts need to be spoken.” Thoughts are running wild As the tears stream down my face. Depressed and suicidal, But I should just stay in my place. I’m feeling kinda broken, Feeling kinda lost. I wanna make my pain Just go away at any cost. Don’t get me wrong, I grew up In a nice enough neighborhood. And I did everything that Anybody said I should. But it wasn’t enough. It wasn’t me. I thought that I could help the world With the things I’ve seen. My cousin lost herself In drinking hard and smoking *** My good friend tried to run away And lose her past a lot. I, myself, have struggled With thoughts of losing it all. The pro and cons of jumping off That cliff into the free fall. I mean if there's something that can save me Then it'll show up, right? It's worth the wait to take a blade to my wrist And **** it up, right? The truth is, I don't know How to do this and win the fight. I need someone to show me There's still a ray of light. I fell into a pit of despair And it consumed me. I guess the only way to help the world Was to lose me. Finding myself is gonna take a while. Don't know if I can make it. Keep giving out my heart Hoping someone will take it. Drinking, smoking, Doing everything to make me numb. Doing stupid things. Making people call me dumb. Popping pills like candy Just to get me through the day. Trying to end it all; To make the pain just go away. It wasn't perfect. Never. It wasn't good enough for anyone. So I always sat alone And wished my life was done. ~Ashton Grayson Everly

A 1st grader is swearing, a 3rd grader has been ***** Just take a look around you, isn’t the system great? Who isn’t faded these days, teens are sending nudes, kids are getting beaten, the teachers see the bruises. No calls for help are spoken, teens are smoking **** young girls are cutting, this isn’t what we need. The marks of taunt and yelling, parents are divorced. That 14 year old is drinking beer, this can’t get any worse. A little girl has killed herself, nobody seems to care. Another kid has been expelled for a stupid dare. But it needs to change. Our world is officially broken. It’s time to take a stand; your thoughts need to be spoken.” Thoughts are running wild As the tears stream down my face. Depressed and suicidal, But I should just stay in my place. I’m feeling kinda broken, Feeling kinda lost. I wanna make my pain Just go away at any cost. Don’t get me wrong, I grew up In a nice enough neighborhood. And I did everything that Anybody said I should. But it wasn’t enough. It wasn’t me. I thought that I could help the world With the things I’ve seen. My cousin lost herself In drinking hard and smoking *** My good friend tried to run away And lose her past a lot. I, myself, have struggled With thoughts of losing it all. The pro and cons of jumping off That cliff into the free fall. I mean if there's something that can save me Then it'll show up, right? It's worth the wait to take a blade to my wrist And **** it up, right? The truth is, I don't know How to do this and win the fight. I need someone to show me There's still a ray of light. I fell into a pit of despair And it consumed me. I guess the only way to help the world Was to lose me. Finding myself is gonna take a while. Don't know if I can make it. Keep giving out my heart Hoping someone will take it. Drinking, smoking, Doing everything to make me numb. Doing stupid things. Making people call me dumb. Popping pills like candy Just to get me through the day. Trying to end it all; To make the pain just go away. It wasn't perfect. Never. It wasn't good enough for anyone. So I always sat alone And wished my life was done. ~Ashton Grayson Everly

FUTURISTIC CHRISTMAS
Oh, on earth I swore, never to get married again After getting divorced, glad to relinquish the pain Trapped in a filthy cage Filled with painful rage Great depression Little Self-obsession And Hurtful emotions Clearly feels Like oppression Harsh aggression Without confession Wanted to mention Tell a suggestion For all I know, my beauty is not of such a great exception

Women's oppression
i watched blankets of people rip themselves off of you one by one by one you were no longer beautiful to them, the wrong things became important to you and so they left and you turned cold. i still find you beautiful but i have divorced my heart from you there's not much to say when i see you, not enough space to feel when i'm around you, not enough affection to resuscitate all of the moments you let me drown. i don't want to hate you anymore, but i don't want to love you either. both of them are painful, so i get caught in between. i wish i could wish you a happy mother's day and feed into your belief that you are a good mother, the belief you use to cover up your deep seated self hatred but i can't. i will always find you beautiful but i won't be around anymore to tell you that.

motherless day
*She was feeling sorry for herself After two years divorced and passing forty it seemed hopeless. A string of encounters that were empty and sad. She had given up on ever Finding someone to love. At least he left her the house And the kids she would focus on them. The new neighbor seemed nice He had a twelvish daughter. She broke some china plates In the garden by accident. He just held her and comforted Her don’t worry he said There are worse things happen at sea. Her ex would have yelled so loud. She sat by her pool it was midnight She had finished her swim Looking up she saw her neighbor He had a bottle of Chablis and two glasses. May I join you he said. He had kind eyes Only if you don’t get the wrong idea She smiled. He took his clothes off and dived naked into the pool. He was lean and tanned And cut through the bluewater Like a fish. He stopped and rested by her chair Looking into her eyes He said softly You have beautiful breast. She blushed and pulled her robe together. He said don’t you ever get lonely I do. She nodded quietly. Are you lonely now Yes she whispered. Three years later Their new baby Was getting used to the pool water. Their older kids were swimming And having a good time. He brings the baby to her and they all kiss. I love you so much honey he said. . She never remembered being so happy. And he was hers only hers Well and the kids also. A tear of joy fell down her face. As she said Not as much as I love you my love*

when you think you are past love..is when you meet your last love.
Man and men everywhere; Silver-fox, gay, several-times re-married & divorced. But not one without baggage to be seen — Pimped up with **** Waged weary by work or Isolated through layered losses, The modern man: a peculiar specimen. It seduces the obvious why we turn to women to fill the void; Upside-down desires? Or love that truly inspires?

Men everywhere...
Once there was an extrovert who dreamed of keeping her cool But when the guests arrived and the room bubbled with possible stories to tell and comments to make her wall-flower capabilities shed like snake skin and her voice stirred the crowd and they all swore that the weather was controlled by her breath pushing out words. Once there was an extrovert who dreamed of being cool, okay, maybe not really. Maybe just a little. The type of cool that says they aren't but are but she was too loud and extrovert-ed and her cool divorced her body a really long time ago. Once there was an extrovert who wanted to be the reflection of everything introvert totally wasn't, so she spoke up and her petals fell from her neck onto the ground and were trampled on, and the wall-paper started to tear off her shoulders, and in fact it wasn't sticking at all. It felt kind of nice.

Here's to you, extrovert
Princess Diana was born in England and died in France. When she was in a car crash, she didn't have a chance. She divorced Prince Charles of Wales just one year before she died. Diana was only 36 years old and her death was mourned worldwide. When somebody dies that young, it's always hard to understand. She did charity work and was trying to have landmines banned. Harry and William are Diana's sons. If she hadn't died, she would be 61. For many, Diana's death was a devastating blow. She was a princess who died a quarter of a century ago.

To die, To fall, To lose, In an act of, Life-giving, Spirit lifting, Victory, Is simply, Nonsensical, And yet, Perfect, Completely, Irrational, And yet, Thought out, And so, Incomprehensible, With human mind, But absolutely, And definitely, The right thing to do, Because God loved the world so much, He would let his own creation, Take his only son from him, To save his creation, From the hands of evil. And the best thing? The most amazing and inconceivable thing of all, Is that he did it for all mankind.
