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

Theme of the Day: Alone

How do you go from being lonely to just alone? The secret is in your own self comfort.

you decide

The lines on your skin
betray innocence
the sharp white traces
of my fingertips
followed by red flesh
heard no pain muttered
and that's when I knew
you've been here before
and my joy was gone.
i was not unique.

Broken Promises

Filling my lungs
with promises
I know I will not keep
burns my tongue
and dries my eyes
free of tears
but I could not bare
the sadness on your face
when I spoke the truth
Your little soul
betrayed
by my maliciousness
will be
my secret.
alone.

losing my mid

I'm terrified of letting go because, if I do, I may lose my mind. Being lost is only fun when you have the comfort of knowing you're really not. Otherwise, it's dangerous, scary, and alone.
