<title>It wasn&#39;t long</title>
<description>It wasn&#38;#39;t long,
Before you came,
And sang your song to me.

It wasn&#38;#39;t long,
Before you came,
And took a part of me.

No, it wasn&#38;#39;t long at all 2x

It wasn&#38;#39;t long,
Before you came,
And took my pain away.

It wasn&#38;#39;t long,
Before you came,
And ripped it all away.

No, it wasn&#38;#39;t long at all 2x

<title>Feather</title>
<description>
She handed me her poetry,
Handwritten on lined papers,
And as I took them from her,
A feather floated out,
Drifted out from between,
The cool sheets of her soul.

And maybe she didn&#38;#39;t see it,
For she surely didn&#38;#39;t react,
And the feather lifted high,
Carried by the breeze,
Lifted by the air conditioner,
Kept in my line of sight.

<title>Being with You...</title>
<description>Being with You is like strolling along a tree-lined country road,
Calm and serene.

Being with You is like sailing upon a storm-tossed sea,
Chaotic and unpredictable.

Being with You is like dancing in my husbands arms,
Safe and cherished.

Being with You is like falling from great heights,
Intense and unstoppable.

Being with You is like fal...[Read Full Post]</description>

<title>Rain</title>
<description>Rain,
It beats down,
Upon the ground,
Upon me.
Tears,
Blending softly,
With pounding rain,
Upon my face.

Surely,
I can&#38;#39;t save you,
I can&#38;#39;t bring you,
To this place.
Alone,
I watch you there,
Standing alone,
You don&#38;#39;t see me.

Maybe,
If you looked,
You could see,
We love you.
Maybe,
If you tried,
You could be,
Complet...[Read Full Post]</description>

<title>Wondering May</title>
<description>She stares out the window,
And studies the leaves.
She watches the rain fall,
And feels the weeping inside.

May wonders when he&#38;#39;ll come,
When her true love will arrive.
May wonders how long she&#38;#39;ll wait,
Before he&#38;#39;ll kiss her lips.

She hasn&#38;#39;t been alone long,
Though she&#38;#39;s always been alone.
She doesn&#38;#39;t dare believe in...[Read Full Post]</description>

<title>Broken</title>
<description>My heart shatters,
And I stare at it,
As tears run down,
I can&#38;#39;t fix it.
Good-bye.

I can&#38;#39;t imagine,
That you miss me,
That you think of me,
As you live your life.
Good-bye.

From a distance,
I watch you dying,
And I can&#38;#39;t do it,
I can&#38;#39;t see you lose.
Good-bye.

Amidst the chaos,
Wrapped in the sin,
I watch the decay,...[Read Full Post]</description>

<description>It amazes me, what you don&#38;#39;t say,
It&#38;#39;s almost like a silent movie.
Sometimes, I read your motives wrong,
Sometimes, I read them correctly,
But every time I feel your distance.
It amazes me, what you don&#38;#39;t say.

It frightens me, what you don&#38;#39;t say,
It&#38;#39;s almost like abusive hands,
Pounding my flesh into submission.

<title>One Day...</title>
<description>You told me not to expect too much.
I didn&#38;#39;t understand.
How could I not expect too much,
When I loved you like I did?

You told me that you had to wait,
There were things to work out.
I could stand there forever and wait,
But I never saw you again.

The shadows were twisting around,
They wove themselves into my heart.
I couldn&#38;#39;t cry ...[Read Full Post]</description>

<description>I want to rise,
from this place,
where I have fallen,
but you hold me down.

I want to stand,
for all that&#38;#39;s forgotten,
and live a pure life again,
but you continue to remind me.

I want to live,
in the sunlight,
with warmth on my skin,
but you continue to shadow me.

I want to fly,
to soar above it all,
to leave the valley below,

<description>Slave!
Bend your back beneath the weight,
The more you carry the better,
Slave!
Take this hand across your face,
Choose forever to remain,
Slave!
Beaten, bloodied, held, forced,
But you choose your own coarse,
Slave!
How easy it is to blame others,
Your misery apparent and self-inflicted,
Slave!
Your master does only what he is,

Have You ever failed this way?
How could You possibly understand my pain?
I sit here and weep,
As I remember all You took from me,
There shouldn&#38;#39;t be anymore to take,
But You pull at my heart again and again,
And You take it all upon Yourself.

<title>Reflective Photograph 8-12-08</title>
<description>I see you in that photograph,
Smiling and I can hear you laugh.
I see you in that photograph,
A vivid image captured in the past.

You&#38;#39;re holding my hand in yours,
Memory of your touch stirs.
You&#38;#39;re holding my hand in yours,
Love and loyalty your touch assures.

It seems like yesterday we were,
Standing in the sunlight together.

<title>Beholder&#39;s Eyes</title>
<description>In the eyes of the beholder lies the beauty

Beauty of what?
My life is a flower still closed
Anxious to be open
Anxious to be beautiful

In the whispers
In the night
I hear the sounds of life
The sounds of beauty
Realized

Beholder&#38;#39;s eyes
Behold me
See the beauty
Hidden
Beholder&#38;#39;s eyes
Devour me
Remove the lies
Unbidden

<description>I&#38;#8217;m writing you this letter, I hope you hear my words,
To feel this way after so many years makes me feel absurd,
Maybe it&#38;#8217;s time to let you go, maybe it&#38;#8217;s time to cry,
I only know that life without you makes me want to die.

If I make my words seem cold and hollow, filled with fear,
It&#38;#8217;s only because I don&#38;#8217;t want to s...[Read Full Post]</description>

<title>J.B.J. Poem  06-25-06</title>
<description>The emotions rip and tear,
Dancing through shadow,
Turning in light,
And I move with them,
To a beat so familiar.
I sing as the melody wraps,
Itself around my very soul,
And reminds me of love,
That didn&#38;#8217;t return to me.
So sad some songs are,
And so joyful are others,
They can bring one feeling,
Today,
And tomorrow bring something,

<title>My SHOE Poem  06-25-06</title>
<description>SHOES in darkness,
SHOES in light,
SHOES in every color,
SHOES that don&#38;#8217;t fit right.
SHOES are not my favorite thing,
SHOES are just my favorite word.
SHOES I&#38;#8217;d say all the time,
SHOES would be all you heard.
SHOES and monkey&#38;#8217;s I dare say.
SHOES go well with just about anything,
SHOES and dreams and money and life,
SHOES just...[Read Full Post]</description>

<title>Tired  02-25-03</title>
<description>The water washes me,
Pours upon my naked flesh,
It burns as it cools,
It is my enemy.

The sand covers me,
Descending upon a nightmare,
It courses through my veins,
My lover and my friend.

The dark comforts me,
Draining the light away,
Emptying my soul of purity,
My ultimate embrace.

The sun hinders me,
Brings me to my knees,
Burning m...[Read Full Post]</description>

I can not say,
I know not the way.

How far?

How long are you staying?
I am only delaying.

Not truly new.

Almost time to see,
I will show thee.

And say something.

Anything showing through?
Anything left to do?

Say goodnight to me.

Being alive today,
I don&#38;#8217;t know what to say.

Say goodbye to me.

I don&#38;#8217;t remember.
