Naked

I stood here
stripped of everything
once
holy to my soul
wild and vulnerable
free and growing
never knowing
how quickly time passed
when life is naked
as it was born
unweighted
by threads of fear
and i fell in love
for the first time

Finding the Road

I was a dear
Blinded by your light
Confused
Just
Trying to cross
Over
Into something
Safe and natural
Those three words
Almost destroyed me
Almost
Splattered my heart
Across a stream
Of tears
I did not shed
Aloud
For lovely creatures
Only scream in agony
And lucky me
Our final kiss
Snuffed your light
And released me

2009

The year was 2009
in and out of love
3 times
I cried
Once
For fantastic promises
Broken by reality
Once
For mistakenly gifting
My lucky charm
And once
For the loss
Of great possibility
But
Do not fret
For the year was 2009
And I
was
in and out of love
3 times
