finding something sweet to hold onto when your whole world feels numb
more of my poetry… finding something sweet to hold onto when your whole world feels numb
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
this coma to come to be my sleep / My bed will be but horrors of broken pasts, a tomb and motionless
This is an edited version of one of the portions of the 28 section epic to the death of my parents. I’m going to post a few, for those who are strong, and yet not bereft of duty elsewhere.
I’ll place this on your pillow to find when you awake
A Pillow Poem
SLEEPING & DREAMING / Loves lost / First kiss / Ghosts remembered / Tears shed / Laughter / Loves to come / Childhood / Roses / Chocolate co…
Although, he may cute / He is crazy / To want an old daisy…
About feeling unattractive and pathetic. About feeling that anyone who would be interested in you must have a gasket loose somewhere in their head. About feeling that you really deserve love afterall the hardship you have had to face, but being afraid to take it.
I imagine he is over my bed kneeling down to give me a very soft kiss on the lips…
This is about remembering a lost love, and how it helps me through problems I have now, like illness, to remember his kiss. It is about how it makes me feel better and alive.
Endless Love I slip into your room and kneel beside you / I gently nudge the covers back slightly / I smile as I see your peaceful and …
Instinctive Memories My body remembers / It twitches, jerks / Muscles stretch, and clench This feeling begins in my very soul / The he…
Rest my love, rest with me tonight / Let out a breath and a trembling sigh / While I stroke your hair / As tears come falling from your eyes
Caught your fire / Caught your rain / Caught your sun / Caught your pain Took your love / Took your tears / Took your smiles / Took your fea…
the city sleeps / yet I cannot / I toss and turn / in the darkness of my room / counting sheep futile / the pain brutal / as I long to hold you…
in any way possible to feel
longing from far away at night
back to back / 3 a.m. / bookends of breath / breathing together / a sum of love
love, sleep, anxiety.
If I could turn my every waking moment / into fully awake, / we would finally know the answers / to every unanswered Why. As Gods, we wou…
The waking of Love…what else?
She lays there sleeping / she looks so sweet / her mind deep in a dream / her body and soul so relaxed / her heart dare not miss a beat / whil…
often when I watch my youngest daughter nikkita sleep, she smiles in her sleep, some times she laughs in her sleep, so cute, so that is how I came about writing this poem about her!
I cannot take comfort in pebbles and limes. No lake to skim them across, no gin to sink them in.
written between two continents – written between two worlds – written between two lives – written between two moods
Ground floor, going up! / Fractured frame stumbling / up the tree of life. / Stature low, you crawl, / (there’s only one way) you say one …
My dream came true; the seeds took root; the lost rose at last. / This Diminished Hexaverse is dedicated to you. / You know who you are. :)
It really does suck to be up at two
I wrote this awhile ago and was never intending to show it to anyone, but it’s been long enough for me to want to share. / Please be nice this is autobiographical.
Exhausted now, she lays her head / Upon the pillow soft and white / To close her eyes, where tears were shed / While whisp’ring soft, “My lo…
Distance is a cruel enemy of love
a shadow follows me / it won’t leave me alone / follows me through the street / and when i am home / she dances when i dance / weeps when i we…

She had never called, never let me know she was okay, or that she missed me. She had just left. Yes, I was angry with her. Yes, I hate…
