Back in Time

There was a time when the wind blew through the trees You could chase it down like a child grasping at a balloon. When the sun would warm your face Send shivers down your skin in warm delight. Remembering the past didn't make you feel afraid Of what the future might bring to you.  ...

You Don’t Have Him

He may smile at you Even want to get you undressed And into his bed. He may touch you Look deeply into your eyes Tell you he wants you. He may say a thousand things A thousand different ways But tonight it will be different.   Tonight he'll get on the phone with me When...

Found

He peeled away layers of me, In seconds. Told me he would reach for the stars If I wanted one. Swore to me he would never leave And I believed him. This isn't sorcery Not a trick of the mind Or a slight of hand. He promised fields of ivory Seas blue as the sky...

Once stood upon the top of her demons Pronouncing them gone Rewarded for the lost souls Though none of them were, really. Took torment to a whole new level As nothing happening around her Caused her concern, or dismay. The origin was...

Breathe Again
