Her Eyes Are Closed

hope, pain, Poetry

She closes her eyes
Waiting
For the pain
To go away

But it never does
And so
She just keeps
Absorbing

Filling her up
Until pain
Is all she
Remembers having

She feels
So alone
Living in a world
Just her and her pain

But I take her hand
Gently in mine
And whisper
Into her ear

You’re not alone
Open your eyes
And let me share
Your ache

My shoulders
Are strong
Let’s walk
Through this dark
Until it’s passed

Poetry, romantic

Let me explore
Your light
And your dark
Let me find
Those secrets
That you hide
From the world
And even
From yourself
Let me explore
The deepest parts
Of your soul
Of your mind
And when I’ve
Explored them both
Then I’ll explore
Your body

Dreams and Nightmares

Dreams, Nightmares, Poetry

Dreams
That aren’t dreams
Instead
Nightmares

The way
They pull me open
Tear me apart
And flip me inside out

Each night
A visit to the past
A reminder of horrors
Done to me
Done by me

Doors
I cannot close
Windows
I cannot look away from

Each bitter
Midnightmare
Eating a bit more
Of who I am

Carve Me

Poetry

Carve me up
Empty me out
Then fill me
With pieces of you

I have nothing inside
I want to keep
But you
I can’t seem to get
Enough of you

I need something
To remind me of you
For when you leave
And I’m left alone
Once again

Need

Love, Poetry

I see in your eyes
A light
That cuts through my dark

I feel in your touch
A warmth
That breaks through my cold

I taste in your lips
A love
That silences my hate

Please don’t look away
I need your light

Please don’t pull away
I need your warmth

Please don’t stop
Kissing me
I need
I ache
For your love

I’m lost

Lost, Poetry

I’m lost
But that’s a lie
Isn’t it

The truth is
I know where I am
I just wish
This wasn’t it

Lost
Is where I wish I was
Away from here
Away from anywhere

For as long
As I can remember
I’ve always been
Where I shouldn’t

Some
By my own hands
Some
By hands not my own

Maybe it isn’t
That I’m lost
Maybe it’s that
I’m looking for you

I Keep Falling

dark, Poetry

I feel like I’m falling
Down
~and further away

I keep reaching out
Gripping
~but nothing to hold

I try to scream out
Silence
~nothing left to say

I don’t feel anymore
Nothing
~but waves of cold

I have no idea what’s
Below
~maybe just darkness

I think it will be forever
Midnight
~ no moon and starless

 

This Path Leads Nowhere

Love, Poetry, Sorrow

I keep walking
This same path
Knowing it leads me
To nowhere
But misery

I need to find
The strength
To turn right
Instead of left

But I know
That if I do
I’m closing
The only door
To you

I guess I’ve known
That door
Was never open
But still
I kept trying
To walk that path
That lead to nowhere

The Unfinished Sketch of Us

Love, Poetry, Sorrow

You and I
We were like
A half finished sketch
Never quite complete
Maybe because
We were scared
That the reality of us
Could never be as beautiful
As the idea of us

And so eventually
We put the drawing away
Only to be pulled out
Now and then
To imagine how beautiful
It might have been

Some nights

dark, Poetry

Some nights
It rains
A little harder

Some nights
The wind blows
A little stronger

Some nights
The thunder roars
Just a little louder

Those nights
Are the only nights
That I remember
I am still alive

When the storm rages
And the skies collapse
And the world
Threatens to crumble

Those night
I feel my pulse
And remember
How to breathe

Some nights
I am still alive
