My Heart

My heart sears each time

my thoughts of you

 burn into my consciousness

Becoming aware there’s a part of me missing

Time balances’ itself with desire with growth

In between the seeds of longing are planted and

Fertilized with tears of wanting completeness

Peace

Love is the beginning and the end
Peace is accomplished with acceptance of knowing our true heart
Unity happens when we embrace one another for 

our uniqueness

War Inside of Me

See there’s a war going on inside of me

With my heart and mind wanting two different things

My heart is saying it wants love

My mind is telling me you’re just fine the way you are

Which one do I listen to?

A heart that’s been broken one time to many

Probably is bias by now

A mind that has struggled to make sense of the pain

Still the battle rages and the war is going strong

Heart and mind each one trying to define love and pain

Pain and love

Two strong emotions egotistical both wanting to win

In the war inside of me

Trust not the blind emotion

Forget not the transgressions

The pendulum is swinging in violent agitation

Mind, heart, which one are you going to abide by

Mind…

Heart….

Mind…

Heart…

War inside of me continues

When Love Comes Knocking

When love comes knocking at your door

 Waiting to capture you away in its arms

Will you peek through your peep hole?

To see who it is

Or will you take a leap of faith and

Open the door so love can walk in

Tango with your soul

Having your emotions tightly held in an embrace

Body and earth spinning out of control

Has your heart been stepped on one time too many

And the knock is representing your pain with each rhythmic sound

Taunting you daring you to open the door to your heart

So it can come in and take possession

Or do you take a chance and forgive, heal the hurt

Let love saunter on in to mesmerize you with passion

How many times does it take to get it right?

How many opportunities do we get to love again?

You ask yourself what if I get hurt once more and this

Dance ends like all the rest, leaving your heart heaving

Yet still unfulfilled

Debating on opening the door as the knock becomes louder

The vibration of the pounding matching the uncertainty of

Your heart beats

Let me in to love you as you should be loved

Echoes each cannonade tempo

When love knocks will you open the door?

Embrace your future

Or ignore it and live forever wondering…

Confessions

They say confession is good for the soul

The one on the receiving end might not be so

Inclined to believe that line

Whose soul is it good for?

To lay your sins on someone’s shoulder

To bear your shame and transport

It around with them

Innocent ears have to hear betrayal

Eyes gaze deep into the face of evil

Remorse doesn’t pay the for the debt created

Now the valley walked through is more

Perfidious thorns and rotting roses

Great you with sadness and bewilderment

My how selfish you are to bare your soul

At my damn door

Anger is only now beginning to make its rest

Upon my heart that has endured way too much shit

How dare you invite me in to your turpitude?

Now I feel dirty like I was the one to cross

That threshold of iniquity

Scrub my skin till it’s raw

I can still smell the deceit and treachery

The stench lingers in my nostrils

Lies, lies, lies,

Confession for the soul is good

Just keep your damn secret take it to your

Grave and inconvenience me no more

With confessions

Heaven Sings

She closes her eyes listen to the wind

The song it sings only her heart

Can interpret

Each note is a reflection

Melodious interlude to peace

Quiet reminiscing settles a

Restless soul

Sweet air brushes against

Falling tears mingle with

The whisper of love passing by

She opens herself up

Breathing in a new tempo

Rhythm changes stanza

Inhaling the fragrance of new beginnings

Silently letting yesterday fade away

Heavens breath reaches inside a

Crumbling heart

Breathing in a new song

Giving life to hope

In her heaven sings

Heaven sings

Heaven sings…

January

  Juxtapose hearts

Answers rhythm

 Nocturnal spirits

Unearth desires

    Analytical visions

   Release emotions

   Yearning to fulfill

The Unknown

I can’t discipline the forces that

Lurk seeking to devour happiness

To stop my soul from soaring

My mind to create

My spirit from breathing

My heart from loving

If granted all that would be

Left is an empty shell

Of what use to be

The Other Woman

She knocked at the door standing there big as life

Looked into the eyes of her competition

Smiled sweetly knowing the sins she committed

Would soon be answered

Hands on her ample hips

Her lips dripping with revulsion

Singing a song of the love for this man

Tears begin to run rivers down her face

Pleading for his release

Begging so earnestly

Passionate speech came forth out of desperation

Her love for him was her poison

Held prisoner she kept him safely tucked

Away in her heart

She continued to implore, “Let him go he’s not yours”

Staring back into her eyes only emotion

To surface was sorrow

“Look lady you’re the fifth one today to stop by

Apparently he’s not yours either”

With that the door was slammed in her face

A few minutes later came another knock

Different woman same scenario

Hell Hath No Fury

You haven’t seen anything until

A woman’s heart has been f*cked with

Lightening, hail, windstorm

Are nothing compared to the

Anger in a woman who’s been

F*cked over onetime too many

Earthquakes, tsunamis, hurricanes

Are destructive f*ck with a woman’s

Emotions and get dusted

Tornadoes violently destroy what ever

Comes into its path

A woman’s heart is no match

For the devastation

She possesses more power than

The combined anger of nature

Hell hath no fury of a woman’s heart

That’s been stepped on

Watch the sky a storm is on the horizon!!!
