Poetry

Untitled

Irrational

Incompatible

Baggage

Words

From the unaccepting

Unloving

Incapable

Under developed

Heart

Beautifully complex

Full of life

Wise

Words

From the devoted

Understanding

Living

Beating

Heart

Winsome

I feel alone

Though I am not

I watch them

Living their jubilant lives

With complete abandon

My inner child

Beckons me to

Let her out

The winsome girl

I used to be

I want to be.

Slide

Do not try to persuade

I will not abide

To your charade

So take a ride

Slide down below

Away, go, farewell

There will be no more woe

When you’re in hell

Hiccups

Feeling low

Let it blow

Over. This nastiness

Drained of happiness

Absence of mind

No way to rewind

Nothing but a hiccup

Some may say

Hiccup after hiccup

And it never goes away

Rainbow

A world torn apart by

Those with no color

Color is beauty

Life its canvas

A rainbow of people

Live

Love

Exist

In a world

Afraid of color

Poetry

Live for You

It’s too broad

Reign it in

Slow it down

Use your head

Stop daydreaming

Grow up

They tear you down

Narrow your dreams

Force conformity

Push back

Keep your head in the clouds

Feel everything

Experience it all

Never stop dreaming

Prisoner of the Mind #2

Quick sand

The mind

Past pulling me down

No escaping

No living in the now

Only dreams

No breath

No life

Prisoner of the Mind #1

Chained by the ankle

Will run when beast is sleeping

No escape for now

The Bond

Heartbeats synchronized

Bodies intertwined

She senses love

From the twins within

Her belly their home

Together they grow

Heartbeats synchronized…

Character

A mask for today

One for tomorrow

For you I’ll wear this

For him I’ll wear that

I’ll play the character

For each occasion

No one will know me

Not even myself
