As I walked back past my curfew of imagination
thoughts hold on to me
I'm confused right from the start, gasping for air
finally I reach ecstasy. . . . more

Sometimes I glance at the infinite stars
rehearsing walk through meaningful escapes
as my hand is reaching to the skies.
Illusions of a portrait shattered by remembrance

On a long day
intentionally I drift to
another Universe,
where meaningful thoughts
randomly feel oppressed by
an unpredictable image.
Holding to a glimpse of . . . more

On a cloudy day
still remember
painful memories
of desolation.
Suddenly...
The Phone ring...
My sister sounds stressed
I hear tears falling
as she is getting

Expressions of solitude
occupied by a silver lining
astonish as clouds imagine your face
reflecting a side of a bright moon.
Silence was part of the . . . more

A knock...
On my door
is closed to midnight
a candle light,
dinner still sitting there.
On a cold,
winter night tears
ask for permission
to dream,
often, guilty . . . more

Hungry eyes,
aching heart;
Please go away;
You're tearing me apart.
You laugh,
you smile
with the innocence
of a child,
never knowing
I'm dying inside.

Why do I love?
I have no reason.
It brought me nothing.
It brought me everything.
It hurts
It pains
So if I laugh
Do I hide
That I’m the one
That caused the pain?

Walls close in,
and there is no escape
from this self-induced hell.
Wish I was spry
like the gingerbread man...
Oh, God...I would run away
as fast as I can
and escape . . . more

There is poetry experimentation in the air. I'm not in the depths of despair. No no but
I do want to depart from my usual happy go lucky spiritual poetry and see if I can write something really dark . . . more

Your kindness is killing me;
Why don't you just let me go?
Why must you sugarcoat the bitterness,
make promises you have no intention
of keeping? . . . more

This heart beats,
waiting for love's coffin
which will surely come,
for how can anything so beautiful
linger on?
This world cannot contain it
amidst the ugly darkened doors
which slam shut on . . . more

I'm so tired.
Tired of being strong,
tired of holding on,
tired of smiling
to cover up my pain.
I'm so tired.
Tired of holding things together
through any kind of . . . more

Soft as a whisper
you come to me,
amidst the ashes
amidst the tears;
Arms wide open,
my heart is closed,
not quite ready
to face its fears;
I give what I can,
afraid to . . . more

a lunar eclipse
on your face

Our hands full
of grace waiting

She walks crowded pathways
searching for shelter, or
at the very least...someone
just as ravenous as she.
Darkness hides
the open sores,
the bleeding eyes,
the worms that seek

So here it is,
my christening,
my undoing;
No more
wantan dances
in darkness
or screams of release
from unknown
demons who assail;
Flesh and soul purified
once again,

Silenced by your madness,
I reach out through my gaping wounded heart
to capture any love that comes my way,
whether it be real or imagined;
I let it soak in,
and I cry tears of joy
knowing that . . . more

Than break my heart,” said she,
“For broken limbs heal quicker
Than shattered heart’s can mend.
Feel here, this thumping drum of flesh,
