Poet Introduction
I've been writing poetry for years. Some crap and some good but still trying to improve
Coma
What the hell is this?
Words to make me shed some tears
pictures to shock my eyes
death of kittens to hurt my heart
My chest is full, a constant dull
not a pain, but not yet free of it
water spout is broken
a leak somewhere hidden within
out of nowhere comes
a whirlwind of happiness
what the hell is this?
my chest full of giddiness and smiles
energy to keep me going
love even, I’ve been feeling
the only tears that get by the leak,
happy fucking ones is all
wanting hugs and kisses
from my...

Consolation Prize
Death did not come
and they healed her quite nicely
too good those doctor’s were she said
because now it seems as if it was only a cat
instead of her favorite knife
her only consolation prize would have been the scar
but they glued the skin
leaving hardly any notice at all
leaving her quite empty
taking her life back…

Back at the Top
I want to be loved
Sensually, softly, slowly
Undress me, fully
Lay me down upon a bed you’ve prepared
in a room tailored to my darkness
filled will just a bit of light
enough to see but hide my blush
Start from the top to work your way down
run your fingers through my hair,
down my blushed cheeks with a stop at my neck
just a little nip, or maybe a little more than a little
resuming to sliding your hands across my shoulders
down my arms, back up to my breasts
spend some time there, please
your hands gently, your mouth...

Angels and Demons
You followed me into my darkness
giving up the light
because I wasn’t strong enough
to face the battle’s fight
Leaving behind the world
starving themselves of who they are
becoming a society of skeletons
stuck in realities tar
while I’m burning with a fire
that feeds the darkness, feeds me
As you fight the angels seeking my soul
I cling to the demons I’ve let take control
While clinging to you and yours
so you’ll never leave my side
In this darkness I’ve prepared
grateful you’ve always cared

Spilled Blood (Contest entry)
I should have painted the bathroom walls
The cops will see my rage filled writing
Why'd I use permanent marker?
At least the orange flowers are pretty
but the blood on the floor will need to be washed
when my body is moved and turned to dust
"Mommy." I hear at the door
Why is it her that finds me?
Couldn't she wait until my heart stopped
and...
Apparently, I didn't cut deep enough
when my eyes are opened
to tears in their eyes

Raging Boiling Blood
I really hate being a mom sometimes. It’s like a trap. I love them to pieces, they’re a part of me forever. They can’t stop being a part of me. Sometimes I think if there were a way to cut the biological ties, I’d have those scissor’s in hand so I could do it and be done being a mother.
I’d never wanted to be a mom. My friend Alina’s children made me reconsider because they were such good kids, good people. We didn’t necessarily try for Grace, but we didn’t take precautions either. I was even excited for her. But after that I didn’t want to do it anymore. Ever. So when I was...

Anvil of Darkness
Anvil upon your shoulders
darkness in your heart, bleeding from your soul
and your future is bleak to the eye
Positive thinking only goes so far
One day at a time is too cliche
How many times must you answer the,
“How are you?”’s?
Through all of it,
the next few months of hell
keep in mind just a few thoughts
I hope they help….
Sorry isn’t good enough; but I am
I’m Okay from my lips isn’t trustworthy; but I will be
I love you seems contradictory; But I do
Never again is a lie; but I can promise I’ll try
A few...

Corporate Secrets (Collab with Tornado)
Ah yes, secrets shared of forbidden sin
making everyone else’s suspicions grow
showing only an eye brow raising grin
that's all anyone else needs to know
Winks from across the room
they ponder over what we’ve done
making their eyes turn down with gloom
jealous of our imagined secret fun
A quick glance, a concealed grin
arriving separately, both late again
forgotten panties, unlaced shoes
heated memories of another rendezvous
Coffee break, deserted stairway
panty-less for easy access
you the hunter, I the prey...

Mama Nature
Warmth had melted, cracking the ice,
Letting blossoms burst through.
Butterflies fluttering all about,
With nervous shutters
They create a hazy breeze
A Shining sun for warmth and hope
To bring dreams of rose filled love
But love never lasts,
No matter what’s given
Betrayal cuts through and instead,
Her gifts abused and damaged
Broken hearted angry tears flow
They flow with rapid speed
The ice inside her pouring out once again
Freezing in a single moment all it touched
She’s stuck in a hell frozen over
And her heart on her...
Letting blossoms burst through.

Witch's Hat
A Witch’s hat tucked upon a shelf,
I can’t help to reach out and touch its magic
Tingling, tangling goose-bumps popping up
Making mountains on my arms
Creepy masks and costumes surround me,
Creating nausea I’m fighting back down
Pushing the fear to the top,
Sizzling its fiery callousness
Penetrating my body completely
Leaving no room for pleasant thoughts
I pulled away forgetting where I was, what’d I’d felt
A Witch’s hat tucked upon a shelf,
Without a thought I walked away
Errands to run and costumes to buy
Such as a witch for my...

My darkened life brightened,
The moment I fell upon her eyes
A place deep inside me lightened
By the love my heart denies
My senses by her touch heightened
I jerked away fearing that which my heart defies
Anger spews forth and she is frightened,
Cracking my heart at the sound of her cries
Desires I’ve left un-livened,
Sneak upon me waving her as my prize,
And I longed for her to wear my diamond,
Showing her me without my disguise
But, love wasn’t enough to enlighten,
My darkened life in which I despise
I turned away from...

Tender Place
Butterflies in her stomach burst,
Fluttering around her stomach,
into her heart, flowing through her body
Electricity shot through her
and the butterflies scurried all over,
as a cry escaped her into the air

into her heart, flowing through her body
Electricity shot through her
and the butterflies scurried all over,
