What do you think of some of my poetry?
Romancing Fear
Fear was romancing her
smiling at her
It had danced with her soul,
lingered in her heart
What was she to do but follow it.
The Great Love
Dropping all senses
completely letting go
she fell
fell so deeply
into your arms
you hold her up
you embrace her nakedness
her humanity & sin
her unknowing
that is what you do.
Home
Home is a haven
a safety net
catching me
holding me
but it doesn’t let me go
trapped inside
its tangled mess
i wallow helplessly around
cut me lose let me be
but to long that net has held me
im scard now to see
where life could take me
Butter
Worse than butter
his tone of voice saturates
deep into me
clogging my arteries
with its poison
slowly stopping my heart.
Numbness
Too long i’ve gone alone
not trying
avoiding
forgetting
excusing my way into nothingness
nothing satisfies
numbness feels absolute
then you appear and jolt me back to life.
