Flyishness *poem*
Category: Writing and Poetry

stress cascades throughout my system

thick clouds of electric tinged fur

suffocating me and stopping my words

shoulders bowing beneath the weight

i ache, flutter and pull

against the sticky fronds entrapping me

all the while searching squinteyed

for the glimmer of eyeballs in the gloom

certain i can hear the snick-snack of mandibles

signalling my final moments

Conquistador *poem*
Category: Writing and Poetry

your words are heavy dew

touching with blessed weight

upon my parched tongue.

my arms ache to hold you

even as they are memorising your shape...

my heart is open to you as never before

and though its exposure scares me,

the warmth of your hands

calms my shivers.

everything that i am is laid before you,

spread out like market wares

awaiting your browsing fingers.

my unplumbed depths

ache for your touch -

so send over your ships,

let them unfurl their sails

and conquer my hidden oceans.

Yes *poem*
Current mood: indescribable
Category: Writing and Poetry

my savage lover

sweet nectar dripping from your lips

i long to eat of you

to spread your love upon my skin

a salty sweet security blanket

saturating me in love's reward

fingers giving shared bliss

mouths rending while soothing the ache

to delve into deepest secrets

whispered midnight confessions of need

Writer *poem*
Current mood: indescribable
Category: Writing and Poetry

i think in ink

and dream in colour

traveling my path with ready pen

recording the tiny moments

to give them the import they deserve

words like bursting peonies abloom

filling my grey tones with the pigments

i lust for and crave in low moments

Awkward Poem *poem*
Current mood: indescribable
Category: Writing and Poetry

my phone doesn't ring anymore

my mailbox is empty

though my heart still feels full

how is it i'll never hear

your delighted chuckle ever again?

i regret those unkind moments

when i was annoyed in secret.

i would love to believe

you are still here

but for right now

the physical proof of your absence

is too much to bear

Imperfect *poem*
Current mood: indescribable
Category: Writing and Poetry

i know i am a broken thing

my edges no longer smooth,

the pieces i've glued together

more obvious with each passing moment.

i know all my imperfections

show never sharper

than when held against

the glare of those who came before.

my shell is weathered,

my soul tattered by many skirmishes,

but here i stand -

my hope intact,

my love vibrant and lush,

needing only yours for nourishment

Well..
Category: Life

So today is yet another milestone for me. I haven't wanted to blog about what's been going on in my head lately cos it makes for pretty dreary reading, not to mention repetitive. I know you must all be as sick of reading about this as i am about thinkin about it. So.. Pardon my extreme self indulgence here. It's mothers day today. I'm not sure how to feel about it. Is it disrespectful to try to completely ignore its existence as i have been all day? I've thought about her in small snatches, then quickly removing the finger from the wound before it can hit me too hard. Is it stupid that i honestly tried to text her a happy mothers day? Is it even more ridiculous that i was heartbroken last sunday when i didn't get a happy birthday from her? I feel like i'm still kinda lost, but haven't allowed myself to hurt because i'm tired of being the needy sadsack.. So i keep up my sunny outward appearance as much as poss, hoping that if i can keep it up just long enough, i can trick my mind into just being it..

They Call This Healing In Progress? *poem*
Category: Writing and Poetry

the resoluteness of you,

gone,

holds me in stunned disbelief.

i call you with wrenching heart cries

but can sense no response from you

for the first time ever.

the void you filled,

a ragged hole i poke

to remind myself of where you

used to be...

now relying on sepia toned

shutter-click memories

to sustain me.

Loss *poem*
Current mood: hmm well?
Category: hmm well? Writing and Poetry

sun warms my skin

and i feel your smile,

a trace of laughter in my ear.

the sore tooth ache of you

fills my mind;

the memories

not strong enough

to hold you

as tears follow

the well worn path

to my chin.
