An Alter Ego
Been battling feelings
Of the sinful nature
Been rolling around
In skin that’s not mine
It is so freeing
To be self-indulging
Knowing they are
Throwing me side glances
For something is peculiar
Must give up
The addiction
Of living as my alter ego
Crawl out into
my old world
Never forgetting
The feeling of sin
upon my skin.

A Heavenly Spell
Come
Help me forget
What I don’t want to remember
With a touch so soft
Lips lead me into a distant world
Turn my head into a foggy morning
With nibbles and tickles
Bury me deep in sensations
So my eyes will never yearn to open

Sleepless Thoughts
I sat talking across from the person that knows me too well.
She is the mirror that I can’t avoid.
I have been fooling myself for so long,
I don’t normally get away with it this long.
Trying to justify my inner feelings
It’s normally a breeze to put feelings on paper,
But I’m having a hard time admitting those words.
“You are not that type of person.”
How do you ignore that statement?
They are words that seep into your psyche.
None of this makes any sense.
But I suppose it shows the truth,
Of how my head is truly working.
One last thought before I go,
I want to forgive you,
But I’m no longer that person
I’m the person you made me become.
I don’t know how to change that.

Embracing Comfort
To me
You’re just a blur
In a picture
That won’t focus
Giving a migraine
Of longing pain
That digs into
My one weakness
That is always
Looking back
Giving the comfort
To know
You are close enough
For me to go
Running back
To you
So I can
keep walking
forward.

Heart Always Knows
Sometimes when I’m writing
I don’t know who or what
My words are about
Like my heart is writing for me
Until my head can catch up

The Uninvited Truth
I mean no harm when I speak the truth
I’m just trying to watch out for you
But now all I hear is silence
Knowing my words did not come invited
So I sit holding my breath
Till I hear the familiar tone
Of your message on my phone.

Euphoria
So much joy
To be expressed
On paper
Can’t find the words
to show the feeling
of my heart
skipping beats
of exuberant delight
at the thought
of my life’s blessings
as I sit
in pleasurable denial.

Fortune Cookie Poem
Sometimes the world
Has a crazy way
Of putting you in situations
So that you can be surprised
Just in time
Of what type of person
You really are

Feeling Yes
Sometimes you have to say no
To the nibbles and kisses
Before opening your eyes in the morning
Making you smile before the day even breaks
Sometimes you have to say no
To the walk in the park
Love that is ever so easy to see
In the reflection of their eyes
Sometimes you have to say no
To the life you thought you’d live
To search for the person
With eyes that don’t reflect you
But stare in a way
That makes you feel the warm glow
Of their love upon your skin
So that you can sometime say, yes.
