"fantasized" poems
You can’t have your cake and eat it too. Not for long, anyway. Cake doesn’t settle well when it’s all you’ve had to eat. It’ll churn like butter inside you, and creep up your throat to project like a cannon, barreling through a wall. Cake won’t sit right with you anymore. At the mere mention of cake, your insides will crawl with disgust and an association of icing will replace your taste buds with ***** You will never be able to enjoy cake—at parties, as a delicacy, with ice cream—because you got greedy and wanted to eat your cake first rather than save it for such an occasion. Now all the different kinds of cake you fantasized about trying—black velvet, coffee cake, buttercream pound cake—will only be a reminder of your pitfall that led you to make yourself sick with desire, for cake. You can’t get the icing off your tongue, the smell of batter baking has festered in your nostrils wired to the pungent taste of red from between your teeth. But it’s all you can think of when you’ve been wronged by your favorite dessert. What sort of chemical reaction in the bowels of your stomach caused all of this sorrow? What rejected the cake? Your body has a way of telling you things—we should listen more. Cake is not sustenance, it has no value as a nutritious food. It doesn’t help, only hurts.

The icing on the cake
Is it wrong for me to hate you? Its so hard not to love you. Everytime I try to move on with my life.. You just have to go and make things all right. Just know I don't need you. Do note how bad I want you. Because when I'm gone. Thats the end of our song. Is it wrong for me to say this? Why is it so hard to move on? If I said none of this. Would you still play along? As if we're still in love. Like we never even stopped. Maybe I should've stop. Forget what I said, its dropped. There is something that we love about us. Its a shame that we both mask it with lust. Guess we were never meant to be. That future will stay a mystery. I remember how we were. Just years ago. The world was our own. And i held you so high. Stars in your eyes. How I fantasized. Until you ****** it up for us. So now, I'm gone. Can't take this pain no more. So tonight I'll give my loving. But tomorrow I leave with yours. Is it wrong for me to say this? Why is it so hard to move on? If I had not said any of this. Would you still play along? As if we're still in love. Like we never even stopped. Maybe I should stop. Forget what I said, its dropped. There is something that we love about us. Its a shame that we both mask it with lust. Guess we were never meant to be. That future will stay a mystery.

Heartbreaker
The bright blue bottle hit me like a hint of death       on the breath of Spring. I imagined it being tossed out a truck window by underage teens fancying themselves clever       and mature and immortal as if the earth had willed upon them       that her stolen treasure, Aluminum, be returned or she’d cause their truck keys       disappear for all eternity.       I picked up the blue bottle tried to feel resurrection       in a recycling sort of way felt instead only the hollow emptiness       of mindless eternal reincarnation. Winter had been long this year and lately I fantasized resurrection more than usual at a field where I stopped to listen to meadowlark and field sparrow calling for mates or alerting everyone to the sin of the blue bottle. Several deer grazed the unseen first greens of Spring near skunk cabbage and coltsfoot. At a small stream, I cupped my hand into the icy fast water and raised it to my lips, then splashed my face, then splashed some more, more, then knelt, both knees at the streambed and submersed my face and head, in self-inflicted baptism       for my own blue bottle sins, opened my eyes, exhaled all my blue bubbles, for the longest of repentant moments, pulled out of the water gasping the holy Spring air       for dear life and thereafter walked each step in the garden of resurrection.

The Blue Bottle
I thought about you for a while today, Imagined all the things I’d like to hear you say. You said many things I wanted to be true, And when I fantasized I said, “I love you, too.” If only I could feel the things you feel, Are you just a friend, or will more be revealed? I know I’m not the perfect specimen. But I love you now, and I will love you till the end. And when you think of me, Remember me with kindness. If you go away, Please, close the door with tenderness. And all you are, Is everything you could have been to me. I know you would, If only you could love me. I sat in silence with my thoughts today. And then I practiced all these things you’ll hear me say. I never knew I had such feelings inside. I would have said before, if it weren’t for my pride. The truth is more like that I fear too much, And do women like their men to be tough? I wonder maybe if there could be a chance, If I am bolder, so I’m here to show my stance. And when you think of me, Remember me with kindness. If you go away, Please, close the door with tenderness. And all you are, Is everything you could have been to me. I know you would. If only you could love me. I knew that if I wore my feelings on my sleeve, There was a chance that things would change and you would leave. One in a million lucky few can feel like this. I want to thank-you. I love you. You’re worth the risk. My heart’s not broken, but it’s fortified. You’ve taught me lessons, you brought joy to my life. You’ve shown me kindness, and when to let go. And lots of other things, I think you should know. I have to tell you all these words I’ve said Have just been swimming loudly ‘round in my head. I didn’t mean to put you on the spot. I am in love, even though you’re probably not. And when you think of me, Remember me with kindness. If you go away, Please, close the door with tenderness. And all you are, Is everything you could have been to me. I know you would. If only you could love me. I knew that if I wore my feelings on my sleeve, There was a chance that things would change and you would leave. One in a million lucky few can feel like this. I want to thank-you. I love you. You’re worth the risk. Was writing for a musician friend, a guitarist, to see what he could do. Negotiations are on the table. Lyrics completed dec. 29, 2015. All copywrites reserved by the writer.

There are many ways to escape I have tried them all- I walked out of the door I tried to run out of the gate I passed through the fence I dreamed I fantasized Why I am still here?

My Anythin' And Everythin'
Yesterday it rained. ‘ ,  ‘,/  ‘ ,  ‘ ,\’ ,‘ , ‘ , ’ ,   ‘ ,\ , ‘ ,‘ , ‘/‘,  ‘, , ‘ ‘  ‘ ‘ /‘ , ‘ , ‘  \’  ‘, ‘ , ‘   ‘  ‘ ‘  ‘   ‘  ‘  ‘  ‘   ‘ Forcing my lights to power off. Last month we planted a seed. We fantasized about our future SUN(or)FLOWER. But lightening struck late last night. Destroying my garden, Snatching away my sunshine, Leaving me trapped under heavy rain clouds. Pouring teardrops of pain on my window. Filling the skies with thundering disappointments, As our paper plane came crashing down. Dissolving in sorrow-filled puddles before our eyes. All too soon, there was no time left between our “Hellos” & our “Goodbyes.”

moment to moment we are the sum total of our chemicals we think of ourselves we think of others as an average of our time and spacial synergy an anatomical amalgam a biological brine frankensteins with personalities, commonalities and unique agendas sprinkled with neuroses that range from microscopic to catastrophic, whether chemical reaction or hyperbolic extraction you can choose to canonize or demonize as long as you can recognize the flesh and the blood versus the fantasized

Do you remember the day when we fantasized about being in paradise.. The way I hold you tight caressing your thighs I could feel your  ice cold fingers running up my body Why do you always make me feel this naughty? You tell me Just lay down and relax. . I can feel your breath over my shoulder, & let me tell you baby.. I dont want this to be over. . I kiss your lips and bite your tongue, We touch and kiss all night long You hold me back because you can't resist I tease you with my tongue so you'll never forget this Count to three and your arms are around me. . As I lift you up and walk you to my bed I get so many imaginations in my head I can feel the warmth of your naked body covering the cold of my shivering body There I was laying on your back tracin my lips from the bottom to the top Whispering ****** thoughts with an exotic voice You turn around and tell me; "Baby you leave me with no choice"

You already know why I'm here don't you? I would tell you but you are so smart, Probably heard all this before Here comes the lies The pattern of my life I am happier now a days I can see more light than ever before Its like life really wants me Can relate with me so well When I smell the fresh air I know that there is still a world for me In the city or in the subs Someone is there I haven't fantasized in a long lime Its been months since my last urge I have never attempted, not even once You know me I smile and I laugh My eyes are dry If I need to cry, The tears will come My poems are getting happier too You can feel the sun It radiates from the words, The verbs, The nouns, And the pronouns, You really know how to help me The music is so fresh My sleep has never been better I am glad that I feel better I would tell you if anything was wrong I trust you I know you want to help I have never been happier Waking up I know is a blessing You have helped me in every way

Your voice feels like silk caressing my skin Goosebumps emerge from my pores when you say my name ...the way you say my name Fantasized scenarios of myself blossoming for you with my body becoming one with yours underneath hidden heavens I'm a damsel in distress and wanting you would be selfish of me If only I were a goddess or queen Nobody's affection would compare to mines My Hercules -k.v

My Hercules
A solitary tear trickled down her waiting cheeks. A solitary sigh escaped from within her restrained lungs. She fantasized. A solitary thought circled tirelessly her fading peace. A solitary prayer escaped from within her restless heart. She endured. A solitary wish disturbed greatly her beauty sleep. A solitary memory escaped from within her buried past. She stayed awake. ~ Moniba.

Equality will never happen because our actions and fantasized habits contradict what a perfect match is. With society's eyes high above the mindless horizon, many feel stranded between what wrong and right is. Therefore many have chose to win rather than lose the mold of plastic. Although, hope lies with the few who choose to refuse the use of closed eyelids. Few still choose what is morally, rather than religiously, righteous.

Equality
I saw an old man crying at the precipice of his sanity, ten stories above the sea, and the world at his feet, a helo-deck: a principality that had the worn out lay of home. So trivialized. So fantasized. So immobilized. Transmitting pirate-radio-waves eternally. Seized the tower. Hoisted the flag. Crowned the queen. "I've no blood right, only a passport," he said. "But do have the right mindset: I can't leave, we're so dangerous. Don't be a stranger now, we'll never be this dangerous again..."

I fell in love with a boy at a coffee shop who always ordered vanilla chai. I knew it was love because I could never get up the courage to speak to him. I fell in love with a bony fingered, anorexic boy in my math class. I think it was the way he did the problems in his head, so he could use the paper for listing everything he wanted to eat that day, but wouldn’t. I fell in love with a girl who had dreadlocks and burn marks on her neck. I always fantasized about touching them, asking if they still warmed up her skin. I fell in love with the older man at the tutoring center. I failed Spanish so that I could spend the next semester eye ******* him from across the study table. I've always had a thing for married men. I fell in love with girl who pushed up her ***** and pouted for football players. It may have been unrequited, but at least I didn’t catch anything. I fell in love with the person who left death threats in my locker. I’d never known someone who felt the same way about me as I did.

I fell in love once.
Lady from deepest dirt, deeper than the ocean, denser than Marianas Trench, speaks so proper, in a sweet subtle voice: “I do.” Gentleman from highest sky, higher than the clouds, brighter than the morning star, speaks so assertive in a firm and quiet whisper: “I do.” No hesitation in either of their voices, as always they give off the radiant atmospheric glow of love. In their lives, long lasting is his proposal, long lasting is her gaze. The greatest of events is this wedding, greater than time itself. He is a ‘gift from God’ to her, and he forever ‘excels’ to stay by with her. He dreamt of her before, but never like this, she fantasized her wedding but never dreamt of him. Can there be anything more right than the love of husband and wife? Can there be anything more right than the pact they have formed? Can there be any place more special than the familial bond? If there is than by the magnitude of heaven, it should be destroyed. Hope is so well-founded, faith is so assured, joy is so abundant, but love creates them all. He never lost trust in her, she always felt rested in his arms. Kisses always tenderly embraced, a long ogle at all times; every coming together. He stands always ***** never bended to one knee, she understood as the love they share together was and is always never traditional. They understand each other with little but a gaze, they care for so little else but their love. No necessary dreams of the future anymore; fantasies are now their reality. Dreams exist outside of the head: the nightmares will be fought together. The dragon is far from slain, but together they ward it off as one. One flesh, One soul, One mind, One heart, all fighting together. The battle will be forever, but Love never fails.

A faith we fancy is that freedom is fabricated and forged for us by our forefathers who fought and forced their foes to forfeit their feud. They fended fiercely and defended fearlessly a fictionalized fact, freedom, filtered with fire and flame. A few fell to be famed fellows of the future while a fraction of the fraternity are farewelled faceless. All those frigid flashback brought-forth what we framed and fantasized as freewill and forbade freaks to falsify our fascination. It all falters as we fathom that freedom didn't fade ,but w/o a fons-et-ergo, a foolish fairytale foretold for us to falsely follow a formula for the foremen to fortify the fake façade of freedom while we flounder and they float. And if we flush and fracture their folderol, we are flagged as flagitious, frauds and fellons. For the feasibility of freedom is a mere ****** Fuckery to **** us.

freedom of a Fool
When I was little, I stuck scissors into the electrical outlet something I never would have had the urge to do if my parents hadn't told me it was dangerous I was a rocket pop, always standing too close to the edge, always carrying a matchbook in my pocket I'm not the only one who flirts with death Death is the quarterback, death is the prettiest girl on the cheerleading team Death is popular at parties And when someone seems so out of my reach like that, I tend to romanticize them So I fantasized about pills that shone like pearls I envisioned ribs sticking out from my skeletal frame, finally frail enough to ****** the object of my desires I thought about razor blades scattered like flower petals on the bathroom floor Etching memento moris into my skin I dreamed of fenders and pavement rushing up to meet my lips for one last kiss God, I had the biggest crush on death But so did everyone else And I saw them falling further in love as if they were tumbling from a skyscraper This is not a love poem, this is a goodbye Because I have instead become infatuated with beautiful things I am a creator, so I must stop destroying myself Dear death I don't want to be just another girl who doesn't look when she crosses the street, hoping to meet you on the other side I will be okay on my own, and I'll keep the scissors locked up in the craft cabinet

I wake up in a cold sweat in the midst of the night So terrified to figure out whats real What's fake. I looked for you ,  Searched for the comfort of your arms Because you always scared the bad guys away. You always said, "Don't worry, babe. It's nothing but a dream." So why does it seem, When I went to find you, All I found were empty promises. Do you remember when I was just a child? When you used to hold me tight, To make all the scary thoughts disappear. Because you used to say that it's only a dream So when did the dreams start to realize themselves? When did dreams surface into the reality of things? Its not like wishing upon useless stars Asking for all of your dreams to come true, Because sometimes  Just sometimes those dreams are horrid nightmares, Nightmares that mask themselves and hide in human form. Dear mother, Where are you? Im searching for the empty promises of you, Hoping to find that you're still here, Still here to hold me tight and make all of those creatures disappear  Dear mother, Where are you? Do you still love me and are you even here? Staring at your cold eyes every time you fake a smile or a laugh. Where did our mother-child relationship go? Dear mother, Have I disappointed you? Have I forsaken this unbreakable bond because I am not the child you wanted, Or raised? Have I strayed too far away from the path you set for me? Or did you delute yourself to the fantasized images you had of me? Carrying it far into the grave. I'm sorry for the child I turned out to be. But I thought mothers were supposed to carry unconditional love for the child So when did it start to become a condition? When did the love turn sour and whisk away into the wind Dear mother, Do you love me? Dear mother, Why aren't you here? Dear mother, Where have you gone? The beasts were supposed to disappear but you went away with them Dear mother,  Where are you? I miss you, Where have you gone? And do you still love me? Dear mother, I woke up in a cold sweet in the midst of the night I cried out for your name I wanted to be held tight by your open arms And wanted to be told all those creatures would disappear. So Why did you turn into one of them? Why did I come to find The empty promises and your nurtured lies?

I’ll take you on a journey, Holding you by your hand, I’m the first girl to hold it, right? I’ll grasp your trembling fingers tight And lead you into the unknown, Whispering in your ear words That you’d only fantasized about. You’ll whisper back, that without Me you can’t imagine living anymore, And I’ll carefully twist my words, So you won’t notice that I didn’t assure You with the promise of being by your side forever. Together we’ll walk towards that black hole, Whose door I’ll have decorated with color, And you, unsuspecting, will lean on me, Will smile at me, will thank God you found me. A minute more of contentment I’ll give you, But that’ll be it. And before you’ll even realize, I’ll push you in. You’ll turn around. You’ll be all alone. Surrounded by pitch dark silence. Trapped in the emptiness of betrayal. Caged in your thoughts and second thoughts. Entangled in the web of self-doubt. Tossing and turning and hitting invisible walls. No one to answer your cries and calls. Kneeling on the abyss, filled only with anger For the girl who pushed you into black infinity, You’ll lie in there, helpless, still unsure Whether you hate me, or you love me. (Or do both). While I’ll be gone, **** And my world is soundproof. So, oblivious to your travails, I’ll sit comfortably, And will flip through the pages of my diary, That records names of all those who had before you, Fallen in the very same manner, for me. And I’ll pen your name down, another one in the list. Then I’ll think of that girl in my school bus who’d once mocked me- “No one will ever say I Love You to you”. I’ll scoff at that decade-old memory, Setting out on the search for a new casualty.

Kneeling on the abyss, filled only with anger For the girl who pushed you into black infinity, You’ll lie in there, helpless, still unsure Whether you hate me, or you love me. (Or do both). While I’ll be gone, **** And my world is soundproof. So, oblivious to your travails, I’ll sit comfortably, And will flip through the pages of my diary, That records names of all those who had before you, Fallen in the very same manner, for me.

I am a writer who hates whiskey. I feel that I should love it like a writer's only friend, Like I should sip it from a glass while I scribe with broken pens, Like I should clink the ice against the sides and swirl it, deep in thought, And take it neat and raw, in admiration of its steely course. It should lubricate the mind and guide the flow of words to page, And since a nervous age I've yearned to say I love the way it burns and maims, And maybe on a certain day, I'll glug it without choking, breathless, But for now it hurts my brain to even think about its... smokey wetness. I've idolized an archetype, a writer with a harmful life, Sit alone in bars at night, lament the fact that art is strife, But recently I'm thinking more, and honestly, this can't be right, I love the pen and paper, and I love the fact it's hard to write. It's the way that I've romanticized it, fantasized and glamorized it, Like I could just forget about a novel, let Jack Daniel's write it, While I sat and focused on my magnum opus, penning parts of it in prose, I viewed my present like it's hindsight, through glasses tinted rose.
