Catch my tears
with your cheeks
As our lips
They meet.
Inhale
My breath
Into your depths
And don’t forget
The path your
heart drifts
Is no longer alone.
Memories of
the soul
Always
Return
Home.

Above The Chaos
I am standing here
I can hear
Your
Heartbeat loud and
Clear.
Above the chaos
Above the confusion in my brain
And I wonder
If you can hear mine too
Because it sounds to me
Like they are one and the same.

Unknown To You
Unknown to you,
The depths you have stirred.
The fire you have ignited in my bones.
Unknown to you,
The longing that was my company.
The emptiness I called home.
Unknown to you,
Without touch
You have aroused
A sleeping soul.

My Shadows
I will throw the shadows of me onto you.
The darkest parts.
If you are
Brave enough to
Come close.
In the haunted passages of
My heart you will find
Rusty rails and broken stairs.
With every step
You must take care.
You will have to
Feel
Your way tenderly with eyes
Blind.
Other senses necessary
To find the cracks and hidden
Retreats inside.
And
Sometimes
The silence is deafening.
Once caught in the black
You may choose to never
Come back.
Or you may endlessly roam,
Making these infinite
Mysteries of me
Your
Home.

I’ll Keep It Real
I can’t tell you where to go
I can’t tell you what to feel
But I’ll keep it real.

Breathe
You make me feel beautiful
You make me feel like I am real
Your eyes look into me
They don’t look right through me
Others see me breathing
When you know I am only holding my breath
Waiting, waiting, waiting to breathe
Your hands reach out and gently touch me
While others go by without even
Noticing
Noticing I am
Waiting, waiting, waiting to breathe

Everyone Says
Everyone says
” You’re just a tired girl.
You just need some rest”
Then they debate me over
Like they know best
When I know they
Haven’t listened
To a word I’ve said.
They talk over me
Around me
And nod their heads.
They sit back
In their fabricated
Glory and bask,
Cleverly
Answering
A question I
Never asked.

Disco Ball
When I enter
the club
I leave my worries
At the
Door
I’m here to dance
Nothing more.
I’m here to move
My hips
And my feet
To the beat.
No thinking
No words spoken
With these lips
Of mine
Just my body rocking
In time to the rhythm
No wasted breath
Explaining.
Non verbal
communication
Appreciated.
That’s all
In the light
Of the
Disco ball.

The Stars
I belong to the stars
I call them home
When I am among them
I do not feel alone
I listen to them twinkle
And play in their light
That is where I feel safe
Playing in the night.

Underwater
If you see me going under
Don’t try to save me
I’m learning how
To breath in the depths
Of the sea
The depths of me
The sounds are muffled
It’s harder to see
But the sway of
The waves,
They carry me
And somehow,
On most days
I can say
I’m doing okay.
