Writing From This Heart

Writing from This Heart:

My heart is always on my sleeve. May the words from my heart touch your soul and shine a light to help you out of your own darkness, just as experiencing and feeling them have done for me.

Equal Footing

Maybe you’re right,as these days pass through,into another cold rainy night. It’s not that I am angry, or that I’ve lost my sight, what I can see and what is unseen, is that none of us seem to be living our dreams. When those who came to help me, what those kind, caring, and helpful…

Take it for what it’s worth

What we could have done from here. All those moments we could have shared.An epic, an era, a whole new story to be written. Instead, off the rails we continue to go. I never stopped loving you I never stopped praying to all the sacred things.Every time you swore that this would be the moment.…

Forgive, Regret, Miss Life.

I regret that I did not know enough about the differences in language to understand how a lack of clarity, an inability to communicate, and a failure to see each other as deeply human and beautifully flawed people would be so detrimental to my present and our future. I regret that it was impossible for…

Vacancy

Thank you, for showing me what empty feels like.Thank you, for showing me the depths of how much love can hurt.Thank you, for destroying that which took a lifetime to build.Thank you, for showing me how having hopes and dreams was worthless when standing face to face. Thank you, for disrobing me of my well…

Super-Calloused-Fragile-Okiedokieness.

Why do I keep writing about this pain?I cannot stop feeling it. Why do I not eschew puppies, unicorns, and roses?I am not that disingenuous. I know I was not alone. A small army tried to find me. A small army saved my life,after I tried to take myself away. I feel it, that I…

This Queen Remains

Every day is a new way to see the game. Your Dungeons and your Dragons are out there,So trapped in this mind is where I stay. The demonic hordes, the howl from beyond. A hell of my own creation. Stuck deep within the wardrobe locked away by a lunatic basement dweller. All the emotions, all…

All Being, All Seeing, and All Knowing

I used to believe in miracles.I used to believe in fairy tales.I used to believe in the universe.I used to believe all things would be revealed in a due course.I used to believe in obtaining direction from my own true north.I used to believe that hard work would beget the greatest successes.I used to believe…

When Did You Know?

When did you knowyou were the one?For me, it was from that very first moment.When I first looked in your eyes,I had this sudden and deep feeling of love.That deep inside me I knew I would never be the same.This love could have stood the test of time. I knew from that very moment that…

Silently Moaning

dreams and poses, midnight roses, those words of repose, somehow this flow I keep composing, everyday the pain of the gangrene limbs decomposing, up shit creek with no paddles we keep on rowing, the sharpness of one’s mind never growing, the cup of life overflowing, all seeing, all being, and all knowing, unsure of a…
