I am that night which is full of darkness
I am that night which is full of darkness, Neither the moon is my companion, nor the stars have any existence. Every corner cries a story inside me, But no one listens, everyone waits for the morning. I have cold sobs in my lap, Shadows of broken dreams. People say I am scary, But how do they know, how true I am. Every...

Premium Member You Are My Love
I trace the contours of your beautiful face In stillness, I dream of each memory saved As I lie by your side renewing my mind I open a door to beauty and love Lost in a dream in showering sun beams I follow you down to the shore Kneeling in praise each word I retrace As I open a door to my...

Premium Member Love at Eight
I waited and I waited just in case she’d been delayed I stood there feeling foolish, though I acted undismayed A movie and some popcorn might have won her pretty smile And I was very keen and so I waited quite a while Perhaps she didn’t like the fact I had a missing tooth I’d heard another one would...

Man in Waiting
If these aren't the walls to hold us Let me loose If charm and features aren't in my company A thought won't do It wasn't me Yet they carved out pieces of my flesh to fit into If it isn't you Please make room I have no heart to share No bated breath to bare Let him pass through Give me no angst, no grief Love what...

maybe you didn’t physically touch my skin, but the evil in your eyes when you would look in my direction was enough to make it crawl. you may not have laid your fingertips on my innocent body, but the thought of knowing i was a room away was horrifying to my young brain. maybe you didn’t breathe on my neck,...

PICKING AT SCABS
PICKING AT SCABS There’s a link between smart and dumb Like just when things start to get better As if a wound on the skin as it’s healing Picking at the scab feels quite appealing But is not following process to the letter Such choices made are worse than some It happened whilst fiddling with a knife Now just stop digging if you’re...

‘When you are not fed love on a silver spoon, you learn to lick it off knives.’ - Lauren Eden lilies and ravens dance together making mud puddles thick as salve caked on deep wounds stemming not the ooze tinctures from droppers bitter herbs labeled for survival use only as directed replenish nothing rancid birthday cakes gleeful candles form dancing shadows glassy story-telling eyes yearn desperately gleaming steel...

To eat when hungry and sleep when sleepy, at first sight sounds simple enough to do but when swamped by thoughts, fearful and creepy, we’re bemused by puzzles we need to sew, so know not that peace graced on but a few. Oh, to be a child again, free from strain, frolicking carefree in the monsoon rain!...

Why the horse dance
Do you remember, The grand horse carousel? Pirouetting upon their endless meridian, O! How they dance delightfully, with out care. I know you remember! But all this poor old man can recall, Are the coins infiltrating, Pushed by small finger, and joyous smiles. Then the lights overhead, Followed by the grand gallop chomatique! How I remember? These stallions, they dance for wealth, For life, For aspiration, For...

Ariana Grande had many teenage fans girls went to her concerts, in different lands Then a bomb went off in Manchester killed 22 Revenge, ideology, a toxic stew Girls liked to sing along with Taylor Swift But in the alienated mind there was a rift He stabbed little girls at a Swiftie themed class Three of them died, there's a question we...

No More
In ashes of betrayal, we rise up, As women of strength with fire in our eyes. No longer in mans shadow, we claim our own light, In a world where mens wrongs are finally set right. You thought you could wander and stick your Dick Into every pure heart, every...
