FALL INTO MY BED

Lizzi wrote a beautifully wonderful poem HERE and she inspired me to pick a metaphor and write my own.  Hope you like ❤ I stretched out long For the summer sun Absorbing its heat Until I was empty Nothing left to give I remained silent Weighed down By sharp stones And left with Broken limbs…

PAPER CHAINS

I originally posted this poem on facebook. Did you know I have a facebook page?  Sometimes I will post poetry straight to the page and I love it when people comment with their own stanzas or lines in return.  Every now and then they make it here along with the comments like today!

REALITY CUTS IN

Come see me over at Sisterwives Speak today! What starts out as a sweet and friendly waltz can become a tango before you realize the tempo has changed. When two people create beautiful things together… Magic happens… Until reality cuts in and says, “May I have this dance?” BEAUTY IN THE BEAST WE ALL SHINE ON…

CAST OUT – SINGULARITY COVER REVEAL

I’m the type of person who will purposely walk down a dark hallway at night. Turning off into dark alleyways to watch the shadows dance on brick walls and craving the way an unexpected sound makes my heart race with the speed of adrenaline.

EAVESDROPPING

COLLIDED

Let me lie here Under your eyes As they wander slowly Over constellations That play upon my skin Under this starlight Let me lie here As I become A stardust breeze Chasing fires Fueled by longing Inside your gaze Let us lie here Each offering Broken hearts To create comets Inside this universe We collided…

TRUST IS AN ASSHOLE

Trust is an asshole It whispers soft Billowing clouds Of pure white lies Then grabs your Fragile little neck And squeezes The life from you As it laughs At your naivety And just before Your eyes close Just before Shadows fold He lets you Breathe again He says With his Asshole smile I’m sorry I’ll…

SATIN WHITE SHEETS

The moment shakes my breath Unsteady and uneven streams Of exhales and inhales flow As the moon throws shadows Playing hide and seek on walls Protecting me from beliefs That existed on the other side Of these satin white sheets Ideas meant to shape me Plotting to steal my identity Don’t tell me I am…
