PTSD
Every day is the same; they wake up in the same bed, at the same ungodly hour, to the same monotonous ringing from the alarm clock. They grumble their ‘good morning’s; whether they believe it is or not, rolling out of opposite sides of the duvet. They dance around each other in the bathroom, the heat of the shower creating a fog through which neither of them can see; causing him to stub his toe on the toilet or the counter, and steaming up the mirror so she can’t apply her make-up. They continue their ritual into the kitchen; flicking on the kettle, popping in the bread, pouring the orange juice; stirring the tea, catching the toast and spreading the butter and jam. Crunching and slurping together at the table, mumbling about what their days have in store; tapping texts on their phones, crinkling newspaper in their hands. They peck each other a kiss goodbye and mutter a ‘see you later’ before going their separate ways. But then Monday comes... Mondays are different. He knows she doesn’t like Monday mornings. It’s the very beginning of a new, long, tiring week. She never looks forward to Mondays. So he changes that. He sets the alarm on his watch a little earlier than other days; shutting it off before it can wake her. He slips silently out of bed and tiptoes quietly into the bathroom to shower; leaving her smiley faces and love messages on the steamy mirrors. He creates her favourite tea and makes her toast with raspberry jam; just the way she likes it. Picking a flower from the garden; whichever one looks the happiest and brightest, he places it all on a tray and pads back up to the bedroom to wake her. She no longer sets her alarm on Mondays. She knows he’ll not let her oversleep. He places the flower in her hair and drops delicate kisses; full of his love and affection for her, to the corner of her mouth, until she stirs gently. She smiles on Monday mornings. They eat breakfast in bed, covering the sheets in crumbs and giggling contentedly as the cat licks them up. She hums in the bathroom while he clears away crockery, and always re-emerges with the flower tucked behind her ear. It remains there ‘til night fall. They never once look at their phones or the paper, far too focused on each other to pay anything else mind. Their kiss as they part reminds them of their love for each other and of the good things in life; like strolls along the shore, strawberries dipped in dark chocolate, smiling sunflowers that open to a beautiful summer’s day, and of course, Monday mornings.

[Intoxicated by Freemasons is playing in the background] (A smokin' hot intoxicated woman walks up to me initiating a conversation in the club.) Kadija: Hey I couldn't help but notice your gorgeous self from across the room! Me: I can definitely say the same about you. Matter of fact I'm saying it right now because I'm a free spirit lol. (We both laughed) Kadija: You're so **** hot! (She grabs my face and starts making out with me very passionately.) (The kiss lingers for about a minute and a half.) (She then breaks the kiss. Both of us gasp for breath.) Me: You're pretty ******* hot too! Kadija: Can you sign my ***** Me: Sure I love signing chicks ***** It's one of the best **** party favors in America! Kadija: I know right! (She pulls her top down flashing her beautiful tan ***** and tan ******* (She briefly rubs/twists her ******* (I sign her ***** and put a smiley emoji along with a smiley with shades finishing her off with a deep kiss on each of her ***** giving a little bit of tongue swirling action across her ******* Kadija: Whoo! Hell yeah! (She shakes her ***** from side to side and briefly jumps and down. I was mesmerized by the way they were moving up and down then puts them back into her top.) Kadija: Thanks for the kiss babe! Me: No prob. You have beautiful ******* I like them. Kadija: They like you too lol. (Grinning from ear to ear I smile.) Kadija: Come on baby give them a squeeze lol. (I grab her ******* and squeeze them.) (She grips my **** through my pants and starts rubbing it.) Kadija: Mmm thanks babe. These ***** have been needing a little TLC anyway. They've been bored to death and needed a little fun and excitement. (We both laughed again.) Kadija: But if you really wanna see them in action there is a bathroom right behind us.

A view just before sunrise Resembles like a sunset But the difference is vast As it is fills with a hope of rays A view just before sunrise Is well felt deep inside When it starts to gleam With its sun rays A view just before sunrise Is a blooming sun of rays Which fill with bright lights And make beautiful sights A view just before sunrise Is a view of hopes Excited in full of vibes With its vibrant colours A view just before sunrise Is a one more chance Given to know the worth of lives To live with full of senses A view just before sunrise Is to be grateful to God’s grace To be a part of living miracles Especially in this competitive eras A view just before sunrise Is enjoyed well when it rises And when it rise to its bests It seems as smiling at us A view just before sunrise Is a smiley face of sun As of a blooming sunflower’s With its joyful pleasures A view just before sunrise Is the waiting periods To see the rising queen Reflecting as golden eyes A view just before sunrise Is hope of new days In its blessed paces For every faces A view just before sunrise Helps to plan in advance To utilise the opportunities With its best ways A view just before sunrise May bless us to rise With its immense cheers So all can have its leisures A view just before sunrise Is the stipulated time frames To harvest the best nuts From the life’s tests A view just before sunrise Is to raise yourselves To shine as jewel stones As a sun in yourselves A view just before sunrise Is to enjoy the glory of living vibes To make best diamond from coals So that it lustre in darks A view just before sunrise In nutshell, is a glorious shine As a diamond kept in caves To brighten the path of ways

Its all just words No faces No looks, no clothes, no smell A simple connection It could have been anybody But it wasn’t It started off as a hobby Something to keep boredom at bay By now you’re junior olympics... At least It can be as flawless as beach glass Or jagged and farspread like the trees still dieing I never know what to expect Excitement Misunderstanding Seriousness Interest Laughter Understanding Awkwardness Distracted An idea ... Clearly I could continue It’s like my little escape hole A therapist that Actually understands and wants to We just click Alined by the sun Some would say But I dunno if that’s true All I know is what I feel Should I not feel what I feel? Do I feel what I feel? Is what I feel real? Or is it fake Is it a lie? Or should I make it one I don’t know what’s best How can I I’m new at this remember All I know are the words of the known Who are unknown to me in one world And an empty chair in the next I sit down and wait patiently Until it’s finally my turn, here is where I’ll sit There is no shame finding comfort in the little things the chair offers Its smooth silky surface The wine stain down the middle the dots that resemble a smile in the corner You don’t forget what you know so well You open up your palm A baby snake inside He doesn't take it He doesn't **** it on the spot He doesn't grimace with disgust He doesn't burst out in laughter He picks it up and cradles it in his hands And sets it free Back into the world where it belongs And then he gives you a dalia You take it and tuck it behind his ear as something to be admired He blushes He needs you too Maybe But its real Almost too real So you push it away It’s impossible It might not even be close to what you think it might be Forget And stay silent Hey We start again A haha here A smiley face too Climbing up the uncertain mountain that has never been climbed before The chance of falling high But you like the chase And for now It’s enough You don’t really care if you summit anyway A possible “when” always dangling Inside the clouds

I pass back and read late at night write poetry, eat yogurt, things I had sworn off and return to with ever more vigor I am caught in an orbit, the gravitation is just enough to keep me spinning and too much to let me go free, I fight it, I fight it with stolen cigarettes and late nights and tumbling over and over on a golf course I fight it with drinks by myself and the purchase of ridiculous items song lyrics composed on the spot and bold winks across the room smiley faces and pickup lines to people I should not dare a fantasy of LSD and the hope I'll see a dragon so I can finally stop dreaming of them.

The Purple People come in many sizes, from small to extra-large – some are quiet and smiley, while others are louder and chatty. What they have in common, apart from the obvious distinctive pigment, is a welcoming demeanour that makes you feel that you have perhaps met them before or that you would like to meet them again. I first met a Purple Person as I climbed the steps, looking for reassurance that I wasn’t late and that I wouldn’t stand out too much in my nervous newness. I’m not sure what it was about their purpleness, but I felt one step closer to acceptance as I walked into the warm. I saw the matching purple banners and smiled at the attention to detail and the attention given to me which, while practiced, was far from forced and held a genuine purpleness. I met other Purple People at intervals, each with the purple family likeness of a smile, even though their heritage varied in shade. The further I walked, the more I relaxed and found that some of the Purple People weren’t wearing the signature purple tee shirts, but it was clear they came from the same palette because their welcome carried the same purple weight and the same authentic purpleness. This shouldn’t have been surprising, as I soon discovered that they each bore the same purple family likeness of the Purple King who welcomes everyone.

Once upon a time There stood a frigid little snowman With finger holes for eyes Which spoke no truth nor lies Two twigs made his disfigured arms And a stoll for keeping him "warm" There he stood with all his smiley charm From the dusk until the dawn! His head covered with dad's old beret And a stalky little carrot nose Oh yes,He was our brave little snowman Who grew as he further froze. Then came the mighty spring Putting our little snowman at risk! And then came the sunshine Leaving only the beret,stoll and the twigs. Months passed by Winter came again And Childern came along With the Brave little snowman!

You used to spell my name with a smiley face in the C. When I see that you still do sometimes my heart sinks like a pebble thrown in your favorite lake, skipped across the waters surface, suddenly heavy again with gravity and grief.

I've never been to Paris in the spring summer or fall Nor seen the Champs-Élysées blanketed in winters fresh snow I've never seen it, Why? As I could never go alone I seemed to miss the part where two lovers met and kissed or stood for 20 minuites in a passionate embrace Then slowley walk together hand in hand in the rain, along the banks of the river of romance, the Siene I'm not in the lovers photographs, beneath the Eiffel tower or the playful Quasimodo pose outside of Notre Dame You won't see me in any of them, for I was never there, because while my lover travelled I stayed and built a home, a place we could call our own. But bigger and better was never enough your greed for things was just to much then one day off you went as you didn't hear a word I'd said To you by now I was simply staff and just like them I was sacked But now alone I look at things and know what I can do Change the way I look at life and why I never went with you For Paris is for lovers and not just those who share the rent So one day I'll go to Paris, even if I am alone I shall walk the streets and see the sights that lovers call their own Who knows If I'm the only one who needs to make that trip Do others think of it the same in reverence and wish? One day i'll go to gay Paris and a blank post card  I shall send "From Paris" with a smiley face "I learnt to love myself"..... A picture of the tower or a snap outside the Louvre Unsigned No senders address From Paris With Love

Let's start our day with smile, honey. Because one day you can't smile again for me. When your body and soul separate. I don't want to forget about your smile. Your smile is incredibly cute and probably have dimples. And your smiley eyes when you're smiling. Ugh, that's really made my heart melting. Smile for me while we have time.

The first comment I received a **** you" with a smiley face I laughed off wouldn't you? Kind of crazy kind of creepy put it away as some one we all know. The second comment came with the usual language refrain I was a "hack" my words were "dreck". The disparaging words about my dead mother gave me pause to reflect. The third comment and more began to recall information of past faux pas secret affairs one or two personal pecadillos never mentioned beyond the dialogues in my mind. Embarrassing I know. I, of course, went to the home page to see if it was someone known to me. No identifying data but a picture I remembered vaguely from a past I didn't know. The trolling continued relentless I would say pulled the plug put up a block but wouldn't you know The comments continued to come into my dreams brutal criticism of every move I made the day finally arrived when I realized Alter personalities were shedding off of me like psychological psoriasis They were hitting the ground running I was finding poems I didn't remember writing clothes I never bought People kept hugging me I had never met before they knew me far to well called me many names none of which were mine. The silence of my nights were broken when I found myself in my car on Highway 101 returning from where I did not know with a smile on my face illegal drugs in my pocket. How did I get here? How did we get there? Where are we now? Another account opened on Hello Poetry with an anagram of my name. I find my days getting shorter and shorter it became clear I had become the dream The others had become me.

i injected caster sugar into my veins and i’m still waiting for the high to hit. i drew a smiley face on the desk at school and they called me a delinquent and i think they overreacted a bit, and they said that dreamers never go anywhere in life, but i’m writing this on the moon.

There are so many colors in a crayon box. Everyone has their favorite. Mine just happens to be you. You're the pink to my hearts that overfill the page with your name written inside. You're the blue to the tear on my stick figures that I draw every time we say goodbye. You're the red to the fire I doodle when ever I remember our last kiss. You're the yellow I shade in the smiley faces as you make me grin. Your're the green to the color of nature, that has a beauty so very close to yours. You're the orange that shows our warm hugs like the suns light reflects the sea shores. You're the purple when we're apart, there's loyalty there that I trust with all my heart. You're the black to my night sky, surrounded by the twinkling stars of our outrageous memories. You're the white to heaven's clouds, and its not as far as it seems, i'm there whenever you're with me But most of all, You are my personal color. A color no one could use or borrow I'll use you yesterday, today, and tomorrow And never get old. In a sixty-four pack box, You are my crayon.

The literati are moaning about the crowning of a comical smiley-face with tears of joy springing from its eyes as Oxford Dictionaries 2015 "Word of the Year" it's historic indicative of a generation raised on media shorthand though some people think the distillation of thought to acronyms, symbols, emoji is a bad thing too but in these icons heavy black heart face throwing a kiss reversed hand with middle finger extended even the simple : ) I see emotion stripped bare the whole gorgeous heart-rending, horrible hateful range of it illustrating the dark and light of who we are as a human race So I say hail and welcome to the "tears of joy" emoji may his vivid counterpoint shine around the world eclipsing all the words we've learned this year for hate.

Tears of Joy
he wasn't exactly what I expected him to be   he kept his hair short and messy, wore funny clothes and enjoyed comic books, Daft Punk and ginger-lemon-tea-brewing of all things and bless, he thought his earrings made him seem tough In the end, it was his confidence that won me over his smiley eyes so seamlessly dissolved my doubts and skepticism and took with them, unexpectedly, my heart the kisses he'd plant on my forehead would drag me into his silly world where wonderfully weird hats were worn seriously   and music played on our candy-coloured 2000s cd player while we read together on the couch he offered to massage my feet and I blushed and thought that I was falling for him and he laughed and pulled me close into his chest while I wept with joy for I'd found   happiness

Ideal Lover
I wish I could give you much more- Than my mouth's every empty sound; Words; Like long abandoned shell homes. More than the mere reality of being around. I wish I could give you more- Than my body; physical presence. Than my touch and warm embrace- Heated in the lust of every past instance. I wish I could give you more- Than gifts; my time and attention. My voice, support, smiles and laughter. Wish I'd give you my heart's pure affection. I wish you knew me way before- The loss of every ounce of love I sought. Before the space between spaces filled me, Before the scent of love was eternally forgot. See, every failed fairy tale- Robbed my love of its mass; Left my heart cold, unloving. Empty, like a sand less hourglass. Every shattered future- Taught me how not to love; To cherish only what's left over, Fading innocence; everything I have. Every end of a new beginning- Curved a beast out of my soul; A sweet, charming, beautiful beast. Opposite of what you think you know. I wish you knew me before- I could smile and say I love you- As I whisper praises to the next girl; Of last night, in bed, how she was beautiful. I wish you knew me before- I could hug and hold you tight- With the very warm arms that will- Passionately caress your friend at night. I wish you knew me before- I knew a forever that comes and goes; Before the bits of hurt and nurtured lusts; Before I my pain was of a like nobody knows. I wish you knew me before- The pieces of my broken heart- Spread through my thick, vast past. So I could love you, whole and not in part. I really wish you knew me before- My tears massed into this smiley mask- That stuck to my visage. Before being nice- Was merely my poker face, and not a willful task. But most importantly… I wish you will teach me- To love you with the void space where my heart was; To say I love you in silence; with every beat of our heart; To be one with you; to love with my rights and my flaws. Keep Smiling
