Dream

In a dream, you came to me

Reaching out my hand to touch you

The penetration went straight through

A figment of imagination

 But this was a dream and you were real

How then can you leave me empty?

Incomplete

Trouble thoughts awaken me

And I ask myself if I’d done something wrong

You never left me empty and alone

Even in repose

I pray comeback to me one more time

Give me that chance of fulfillment if only

In my dream

Beauty She Is

Beneath her surface no one bothered to explore

External exquisiteness catches eyes

Antagonism never touched her soul

Understanding gave her gracefulness

Truth was her strength

Years of hard work with no rewards

She still held her head high

Her greatest gift were her children

Even when they’d stumble and fall

In her was the heart of warrior

Soul of an angel she will forever be

Beauty She Is…

Sweeter Tomorrows

As I sleep and dream

Of ardent awakenings

My soul bathes in yearning

Crying out to be fulfilled

Toss and turn to the sweetness

Of quiet whispers tantalizing

My essence

Roll over reaching out to an apparition

Of longing

Silently falling deeper into slumber

Moan of pleasure

Sigh of contentment

Intake of deep breath

Curl into myself

Hugging empty air

As I sleep and dream of

Sweeter tomorrows

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

Feelings Escaping

I don’t know if I should cry

Scream, curse, get pissed or simply

Accept the fact the human psyche

Is strange to dissect

My heart feels

My soul aches

My tears are cleansing

Inside I carry them

Drowning my pain

But my pain knows how

To swim

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
