Cleansing

Heavy lids blink away the tears.A lonely tear escapes .
She can feel it's coolness trickle it's way down.
This lone tear brings her back to a place
20 years ago, abandoned and lost.
Her heart aches. The pain is numbing.
Tears flow over her bottom lid as one
pushes another down her face.
Her heart cries out.
It would be easy to brush away the tears
She doesn't.
Her breath becomes even and slow.
Her heart, quiet.
Her face feels cleansed
like a dewy morning glowing with sunlight after a storm.

Miss You Already

I review every inch of your body.

Your smile, your hands, your eyes.

My heart aches for you already.

My pain silently cries.

Always there, always haunting,

Spinning out of control.

The solemn sound of my wanting

Saturating my soul.

My thoughts of you never lost

Twisted, knotted, confined

Despair, confusion, and chaos

Intermingle, invading my shrine.

Riding the waves, scared and numb,

Holding fast and steady.

Knowing the worse is yet to come,

Because I miss you already.

Dreams

When the phone rings, I hope its you
but I tell my self its not true
but when I hear you breathing
my heart stops beating...
and I smile.

I can't think of any thing but you
I long for your touch and dream of your kiss...
when we are not together you're the only thing I miss
How happy you make me feel
It seems too real

but the reality is just a moment in our lives
that will mean nothing more than lies
sometime down the road as our hearts cry out for more
only nothing is there ...not like before.
Our reality is not what it seems
What we feel is only real in our dreams.

Truth

You see the truth
That others can't see
But I'm afraid of the truth
And what it will mean.

Fear of what's unknown
An end to my dreams
my plans shredded to pieces
For all to see.

Fear of hurting those
I love the most
And revealing to all
My beliefs are mere ghosts.

To you, the truth,
I cannot deny
But to hold on by a thread
To myself, I must lie.

Sadness

The sadness overwhelms
As her body shakes
She wishes she could erase
All the past mistakes.

And clear her mind
Of memories gone bad
Remember the good ones
As the only ones they had.

Where did it all go wrong?
How did all fade away?
The life and love they shared
Was always meant to stay.

She wishes it were different
They could go back in time
To a time when hearts were pure
To a place where love is blind.
