Ocean waves push up and back
lay down back and cut some slack
for you are free like a windy breeze
to swim in raw fishy pee.
Be like me and fly like bees
for you are free like me.
Heart a Home
For thou are as pretty as a tulip
but as dangerous as the thorn of a rose.
Thy blossoms when tended to
but withers when alone.
Who art thou whose heart I call
a home.
Nay, for no one shall love me.
Forever alone.
Her
Time passes as grey hairs prevail,
her long eyelashes
flicker as trees wave
in wind. Still she lay
for memories are the only thing
left of her.
F to D
Trees ablaze come down
Crash!
Forest to desert
all on one flash.
Sometimes, all of what you have
is to breath.
Inhale...
Exhale...
Inhale...
as you catch your thoughts
that fly around as if
they were shiny butterflies.
Exhale...
release the little insects
and watch them fly
beautifully and peacefully.
Inhale...
imagine the dark skies
lighted by stars
how unique and strong they are.
Exhale...
let the dark night
sleep
and watch the birth of a new morning.
Inhale...
look at the clouds
how big, how small
same but different somehow.
Exhale...
let your eyes wander
to the land
look at the soil, feel the grass.
Inhale...
be the roots
strong
holding the weights of the world.
Exhale...
let go
slowly
while hearing the melody the sea sings.
Inhale...
climb mountains
each step
you know you're getting stronger.
Exhale...
thank God
for the ability to breath
and remember that sometimes, all of what you have is to breath.
I look up at the sky;
wishing I could be with this guy.
For a whole year,
I was torn apart by him.
His words and description about me
Always wants me to wish I could be someone else.
He is everywhere
But not next to me.
It's sad to love someone
Who breaks your heart twice.
I felt complete when I met him,
Going on without him seems absurd.
The person who was giving me good memory
Is now slipping to be a memory.
This night I'm not sad
This night I'm not lonely.
This night I plan on running
Racing away my love.
Tonight my pillow won't be
Watered with my tears.
Tonight is time to say
My goodbyes.
To someone I loved
For a year.
To that special guy
Who agreed to enter a contest I was hosting.
I'm saying goodbye
To the boy I shared my first poem with.
I'm saying goodbye
because waiting hurts. A LOT!
