Desire

Their lips meet in a soft kiss 
She touches his face with tenderness 
As he draws her body near, their future from here is very clear 

Forgotten now, the world outside as you can see the passion in their eyes. 
His kisses warm, helped to escalate the firm connection they often debate. 
We have all night so don't go to fast, I want this sensually to last. 
Make love to me, ignite that burni...

Wiccan

He comes each night to to the foot of my bed, 
Weaving dreams into my head 
His chants lightly creeping across the room, 
filling dark voids, it will be over soon 
"Bide the Wiccan laws ye must, in perfect love and perfect trust" 
The wiccan Rede plays in my mind and I lose all sense of time. 
I cast the circle thrice about to keep all evil spirits out... 
Deosil go by the waxing moon- sing...

What It Takes

I'm just a girl, a lone poet.. 
We are all alone in this world, don't you know it? 
Nothing is enough, we always want more.. 
Why has everything in this life become such a chore? 
We slowly throw it all away, bigger & better is 
now the common way 
It doesn't take long before we suffer..second thoughts 
always seem to hover. 
"I wish I could take it back" it was all a mistake.. 
for us to...

Stuck Lonely Girl

Lost girl, dark, so filled with pain 
Dark girl, staring out the window pane 
Sad girl, so filled with strife 
Sad girl, sitting in the dark, wants to take her own life 
He says Please stay for awhile, dark girl, make me smile 
Lost girl shows no fear, for she knows death is very near 
I don't want to see her cry, but all dark girl wants is to die 
she may never know, how much the light can...

The Run

The pavement is hard against her sneakers as she puts one foot in front of the other..all of her worries fading in the wind as she briskly glides across the cement. She takes a deep breath in and slowly exhales as the aroma of honeysuckles plays with her senses..giving her a burst of energy. The fresh air and open road excites her as she increases her speed. There are no thoughts of what she has t...

Dissipate

I inhale as the smoke fills my lungs and my worries dissipate. This state of mind is my daily grind and it’s leaving me blind..the way I want to be..I like to feel nothing, so I inhale once more..I feel it in my core, for this I can’t ignore..it is leaving me wanting more. Slowly my mind slows down and the world seems better, for just a moment..

Escape

She sits there alone in a dark corner..a razor in one hand..a picture in the other. Alone with her thoughts, her mind is racing and she just wants to quiet the storm..such a permanent decision..never to return. She pulls the razor to her wrist and tells herself that soon the pain will cease to exist. This will all disappear for the end is very near. Thoughts of her family slowly cross her mind..wh...

I do not feel, therefore, I do not fear

I do not feel..therefore, I do not fear. 

I have lost my way 
somewhere down the 
road and I don’t 
know what to say. 

My life has lost 
it’s purpose and my 
sense of direction 
is not certain. 

I do not feel..therefore, 
I do not fear. 

Darkness soothes me.. 
I no longer run from 
the shadows lingering 
on my wall..I no longer 
fear when I think of 
death’s inevitable call...

To You

I don't know how to say this, the words walking through my mind. 

I can't put pen to paper, the sentence I cannot find. 

I love the way you touch me and the sound of your caring voice, 

the smell of your cologne in the air, loving you I have no choice. 



To this 1 person, you mean the world, you make my stomach 

do twists & twirls. I will always have a love for you, no matter

What Have You Done?

What have you done to me? 

a shadow of blackness as emotions crawl. 

Once we tasted heaven, 

innocent and untainted, 

but your thirst vanished. 

A sickening cloud of darkness - 

memories follow hate, follow pain, 

love taken away in a rush of sorrow, 

I condemn you... 



Slender beams of light enter 

this darkened chamber as I kneel, 

always lost, always alone,

Beautiful Disaster

I sit here.. 
unable to move.. 
fixated on this 
chaos that consumes 
my life. 

Memories so vivid 
they leave me bleeding 
on the floor. 

I wish I could 
escape my harsh 
existence that 
is called my life 

Is there a way 
to run from this 
monotony..day in 
day out..one sad 
day rolling into 
the next. 

I am numb to 
everything and 
everyone around me, 
that is the onl...

Why?

The sun peeks through the blinds and gently grazes my eyes..another day has risen. I lay there for a minute, going over my dreams, like a slideshow in my head. I dreamt of you again last night..why do I torture myself? The mind is a powerful thing and I am unable to control it. The night’s I do not dream of you..which is seldom.. I try to replay in my mind what I might have done differently, so ma...

Affliction

Cherry red lips shaking in fear 
a whispered longing, a silenced tear 

Deep in my soul dwells a longing, my desire surpassing logic 
Your voice dances into the depths of my soul like magic 

Consumed by desire, spreading like fire 

I gaze at you with yearning eyes. My love I can no longer hide 

Love me, even though I know you will leave 
caress my body, just stay with me 

The hard...

Rapture

Run your fingers over my skin, make me melt deep within 
Trace a path down my chest, I can fell the swelling in my breasts 
My body is aching wherever your fingers dwell 
I am weak to your touch, can you tell 
The tips of your fingers dance around my thighs as I start to feel a natural high 
Feeling your warm body next to mine, so many thoughts playing in my mind 
Your warm breath upon my br...

Me & You

Me & you have a lot of fun when we are together, 
I will never forget but always remember. 
The laughs that we have had through good times and bad. 
I should say my last goodbye & I want you to know 
that I am trying my best to let you go. 
This isn't healthy for me, I need it to end so I can finally start to mend. 
I break down every night, cry myself to sleep and with all my might.. 
I kn...

Your Eyes Won't Let Me Sleep

The days I spend with you are like a tape I play, rewind, play, rewind, and play. Could I but have you for my love, I would take you for my own...When you're away I miss you so..My heart is full of sand. Yet when you're here my stupid fear Won't let me touch your hand... 

I cannot sleep, I cannot eat, I'm so wrapped up in you. My thoughts drift up, away from words, And fade into the blue. But t...

Sweet Heart

I lay awake the beats of my heart pulsating through my fingertips.. 
An empty feeling once flooded my soul and controlled my mind yet that 
emptiness has vanished and is now replaced with true love. 
I didn't think it possible to feel like this..sure, there were others 
that captured my heart for a short moment in time..but, none quite like this. 
My heart beats for you, my mind is wrapped ar...

Forbidden Love

How do I describe this feeling 
but to say that my forbidden love is wrong 
crazy feelings coming to strong 

My knees start shaking, 
My heart begins to race. 
Why do I emotionally sink whenever I think about your face? 

That smile of yours dancing on your lips 
Those eyes so piercing and alluring 
You have this grip on me 
that will not release 
You have these eyes 
and this smile ...

Fate

The years of hardship are written on her face 
Who is this woman and how did she get to this place? 
She was not always begging for change, 
She once had a life that was not filled with so much pain. 
Everyday people pass her and nobody stops to help 
We just walk right past her and ignore what she has felt. 
I wish that I could help her and others in her place, 
Why can't we all be there f...

Who Knew

Haven't you heard? My life is disturbed, 
I'm coming at you with a blurb, 
Because I want to be heard. 

It is wise to prioritize, 
I was living a lie, I did not decide 
I made the wrong decision, as I often do, 
It stuck like glue and who knew?! 
it would have such a affect, you really should not fret. 

Don't get it twisted, I think that you missed it.. 
what I was trying to say, got ...

Essence

I must fly away to a distant land 
and try to produce a promising future 
for me and my lil man. I can do this, yes, I will 
..life is a thrill and I don’t want to rely on a pill. 

Life ain’t always what it seems, 
it is hard to live the dream, life coming apart at the seams 
I just want to be free from society and change what my priorities are, 
not fit in with the crowd, because I am bo...

Changed

I changed my hair, my look, my smile, 
I changed the way I was for a while. 
I changed the way I think and do, 
I changed the way I feel about you. 
I changed the things I say and mean, 
I changed the way I view myself as a being. 
Through all of this self-doubt and change, 
My whole life, I have rearranged. 
I did it for you and also for me, I want us to work and be very happy. 
Lately I...

When I Was Young

I grew up in the south, where the smell of honeysuckles would water your mouth. 

Barefoot and suntanned, I ran wild and free, building forts in the woods and playing in the trees. 

Life was so easy, care free and fun, I loved lying on the trampoline under the sun. 

There I would dream of running wild like a horse, I never imagined my life on this course. 

Bon fires & picnics filled up ...

Catch My Breath

Intense eyes, I love your disguise 
I hate to hide.. my feelings, so I lie. 
Every time I see you, it takes my breath away.. 
I want you to stay, but you always leave, so far away. 

When our eyes lock for a moment, my heart skips a beat 
My pulse starts racing and I can feel the heat. 
Why do you do this to me? I cannot explain, 
these feelings I attained. 

My head feels so clouded and...

Far too long

I get weak in the knees, I can hardly breathe. I just want to be free from these thoughts. Mind racing, feelings taking control..not easy to hold it together. I don't know whether or not I can take anymore of this. Daydreams fill my head with a kiss so sweet and tender on this emotional mind bender. I know this could never exist, your on the other side of the list. Forbidden fruit, but I want you....

My blood

I feel like you are lost in darkness, standing there in front of me, skin hanging from your bones. Your eyes have lost their sparkle, the life has left your face, your soul flashes in and out of your eyes and I do not know you. You are fighting a uphill battle, how did you end up here? Losing before winning, we need to try harder because you have lost your will to try, eyes sunken hungry spreading...

Convoluted

I want to talk to you but I am running out of things to say.. 
This is driving me crazy, the thoughts are everyday. 
Get out of my head and leave me be, why am I acting so crazy? 
I try to find reasons to talk to you and I can't bring myself to stop .. 
No matter what I do, you always come out on top. 
I normally have control over my mind, body and soul but with you.. 
I feel like my life is...

Beloved

Your eyes are hauntingly enchanting, your lips so soft upon your face. My desired fate was set that one moment we locked eyes. I can't seem to shake you from me. Just the thought of you makes me tremble. Seeing you is so hard. 
At night I dream of you, deeply in my sleep. This is the only way we can secretly meet. 
Knowing this is forbidden love and the truth remains inside, I know not where to ...
