the deepest sleep is closer now / i don’t know when i don’t know how
A poem about desperation, heartache and hurt. Written in 2004. Don’t worry, I’m not there …... yet ;) LOL
You firstly say that I am not at fault, / And then you made your last assult.
This was written about someone who meant a great deal to me and I thought felt the same way, but instead crushed me like I never thought possible.
I believe that people shut down. I believe you can push them so far. I believe there is a time to recoil / from hurt / to retreat fr…
You look at your nails and all the things you wish to use them for.

There has been so much trouble in my life, / But i did not give up without a fight. / As i beleave there was somthings that i was right / in…
A life time of thoughts and feelings, hurt and pain that start from a young age. / Ones that are close and ones i dont even now.
No you can’t be fixed / Nothing can or will ever work / They keep trying to gather you up / Sweep you into place / Foolishly try to put …
She said she wanted to have sex with strings attached… only to her arms and wrists. She said she’d had her heart broken for too many time…
Its something i have always wanted a man to say to me. Inspired by one night when i felt insecure because of the way i look and how my past has been. Hope you like.
I walked a hundred miles to get here / And now I feel / Like I need to walk a hundred more.
being there for self
pain of the misunderstood
pain of misunderstanding
Slap me in my pride
The abusive relationship, where a woman has had enough after so many cuts and bruises…...I think this may be only part 1, it looks like it has a follow up.
I cry for the ones who will never find that child again and for the ones who are desperately trying.
I got an email from someone I care very much about… and he was berating himself for feeling something he feels he shouldn’t be. He was apologizing for feeling a normal human feeling. We have so many scars, hurts caused by others that determine how we live our lives. This person is a wonderful kind person…and it got me thinking – about all our hurts and how we berate ourselves. Even my own journey into self is showing me this. We often retreat..but we really need to reach out.
Theres no fool like an old fool…
Fool me once, shame on you / Fool me twice, shame on me
See to believe and you will believe to see!!!
If I could wrap you up in gauze / heating you from the inside / out – / sort the inconsequential lunacy / from the laughter / and sweet honey…
This is a pain about wishing to take another’s pain, if the Gods allowed it be so…and all I’d be willing to do, in exchange. A poem of giving and paying it forward. :)
no more hiding / no more pretending / no more ignoring
4 words / i want a divorce / and the whole world tilts i have a whole writing i wrote about my marriage, the good the bad and the ugly. i have read it and read it, but i finally realize that for me, it all boils down to this one issue- does obtaining my happiness give me the right to destroy another persons happiness in the process? if i need to post the whole writing i may do that later, but for now i need to put these feelings out in the open / no more hiding / no more pretending / no more ignoring posted August 4, 2009 addendum- people are asking about my kids- and rightfully so. / i want to say that my teenage boys and i have discussed this already. they say they are ok with it, they say they understand it, they say they will be relieved. But i know it is hard for them to understand the whole reality of it and i know there will be trying times if i go through with this. But my boys are my whole life and i will not sacrifice their happiness or well being for mine. They will always come first.
So from my heart I’m sorry / I didn’t mean to say… / The words that pierced / You heart,
False alarm….I thought I’d hurt my love, but it turned out OK:)))
Crawl…into me. / Let me bathe your, / every summer strain. / As the summer sheds / her gown of curry fine, / I will nurse your, / heart full …
But she is gone and accept it, I must / ..……..for her / ..……..for me
This piece is dedicated to our pink angel, Monica. My beautiful niece, gone much too soon. For years I’ve been trying to write something for her, then last night it came to me. / I woke up this morning and I realised it is her birthday. I believe she wanted me to post this especially on her birthday, today Oct. 2, 2009. / She would’ve turned 15 years old today. She passed away two months before her 11th birthday. / I miss her long, beautiful hair, her magnetic smile, her affectionate nature and her pink obsession. Everything had to be pink and today I see that the theme for art here in red bubble is pink and that made me cry. / Monica, my baby girl, our pink angel, happy birthday. We love you, always….. The painting below was created by kevin mawson after reading this piece. He was inspired by my poem and I thank him for his graciousness and generosity and for giving life to the words my family and I affectionately call our “pink angel”. Thank you, Kevin. / Featured in Inspired by Life – 4th Oct. 2009
Of spouses spewing self hatred in gathered vials / of poisonous words…
/ Through The Gate
They cum in the strangest ways from all different angels we just have to be open to them for them to be open for us XXXXX
It leaves marks, / his love. / A mask disguising my face, / veiling wounded emotion.
I really like writing poems that help people think. I think most of my poetry has some sort of backround about difficult aspects in life. This one in particular was a hard one to write. Not only in the respect that it is a terrible thing going on in society but that woman who go through this dont feel they have a way out. And sometimes the ones that do don’t get out in time. It depicts what is thought of as love. It’s about what I would think abused woman deem love as. Until they finally realize that someone who does this to you doesn’t really love you. If they did they wouldn’t be hurting you because love isn’t suppose to hurt.
Perhaps in some glint of our eye, you saw what could have been, what might have been, what you have always wanted. / So you cling to it …
Love comes … and goes … and comes again.
