Never Walk Alone
We are broken and empty,
Shackled and frightened,
Overtaken by ugly events,
Life seems to lose it's meaning,
Happiness is stolen,
Smile is the mask we wear so we can keep going on,
But deep down is a concealed pain,
A lump of bitterness and agony,
No where to turn to,
And no one to run to,
We feel forsaken and betrayed,
We feel lost...
And everyday poses a different challenge,
No one stands for too long without falling,
Even when you rise,you fall again,
It's like we are given too much to bear,
And there is so much to fear,...

No where to turn to,

And everyday poses a different challenge,
No one stands for too long without falling,

Dad c:
My dad is my hero , the man who saved me from hurt , who cast away an evil women who left me scared and in fear.
He isn't just a father figure , but a friend , and a mother figure all in one, he's been there since i was born , and fought a long battle against evil and finally won !
My dad brought me into this world and gave me happiness and life , i will forever be thankful and will always love him, no one can ever break us , what tries to defeat us makes us stronger and we have a special bond that no one can ever take away.
I apologise to him for all the time i drove him...

Him
Nineteen years
Ups and downs
Built a life
Smiles and tears
Feel butterflies
Romantic gestures
Doing my make up
Little black dress
He's sexy still
Now a little grey
I'm so in love
Our lives unreal!

Freezing Over
The air is cold,
your body is warm.
I reluctantly rest in your arms
and try to sleep quietly 'til the morning.
But the thoughts keep me up
and you notice I'm awake,
you hold me a little closer
realizing my health is at stake.
I'm shaking uncontrollably, unable to stay still.
Just a few hours ago I was okay,
I didn't even feel ill.
This fever is high,
and there's no more medicine to take.
It's going to be at least an hour or so
until this fever finally breaks.
So, for now, just hold me.
Tell me it'll all be okay....
your body is warm.
I reluctantly rest in your arms
and try to sleep quietly 'til the morning.
But the thoughts keep me up
and you notice I'm awake,
you hold me a little closer
realizing my health is at stake.
I'm shaking uncontrollably, unable to stay still.
Just a few hours ago I was okay,
I didn't even feel ill.
This fever is high,
and there's no more medicine to take.
It's going to be at least an hour or so
until this fever finally breaks.
So, for now, just hold me.
Tell me it'll all be okay....

Simplest things
Bliss can be found in the simplest things
You sent me a text today
Told me you were standing in a long line at the DMV
Loving me...

At the Root of Me 0821
I know I can be a little senseless, but there’s one thing that’s on my mind…
Darling, I crave you like my lungs need air, with a hunger too much to bear,
That quenching my thirst simply will lead to more and more constant longing,
That this yearning goes beyond both the physical and the spiritual and maybe
You’re right, I’m obsessed…
But my heart knows full well the distinction between love and fascination,
And what we found in our lives in the spec of all time is something special,
That the sole purpose in my life is to live this...

Post Heart to Heart
You’re a real one
You’re so honest and down to earth
And I think
You actually changed something in my today
Like I see things differently
Because of you
You’re so honest and down to earth
And I think
You actually changed something in my today
Like I see things differently
Because of you

August Forenoon
There is a sale on in the dress shop bathing trunks reduced up
to 40%. It has been a good summer and few local people have
died but the price of coffins stay the same....
So beautiful a forenoon, I drove on my moped to visit a carob tree
I used to sit under when lonely
Its thick branched protected me from the world. Under it now
two elderly women -on their knees- picking sweet, black beans.
The small farmers around here have aged with me, the women
looked up and smiled at this elderly, permanent tourist on his
round; he is like...

Pain In The Ass
Three word Inspiration Challenge.
2012 on Dup Door, plank, collar
He said his ass hurts,
lmao! 23 years in prison,
for shame for shame.
His lungs looked as black as a freshly paved highway
from all the tobacco he smoked over the years.
The door to freedom never did open for him again.
Always with a sore ass he remains state property.
He sighs as he mops over a loose plank
in the gymnasium floor thinking back
on a life long since gone,
as he now and forever remains
clad in a prison collar. ...

I Will Love You Forever (Yesenia Diaz)
I will love you forever from here on out our lifes can only get better. I couldn't get you out of my fucking head because our love will last till the day were both dead. Your the only girl that I love in this whole fucking world. I know we had our ups and downs but your the only girl that I ever wanna be around. With out you I was always sad and frowned. With out you I would rather be six feet deep buried underground. This is how much I love you and I know you feel the same way too.
