A life unlived

Have you ever dreamed of a soul that answered your heart's call?
Or have you lived resigned that it does not exist at all?
A soul approached, saw deep within me, and came closer yet.
One who made me remember, one I could not forget.
Is it not worth it to risk everything to turn fear into trust?
The alchemy that could eradicate loneliness
Is the balm to soothe my broken heart
I never thought it could be strictly positive
The love and admiration of another
I never knew such mutuality
A connection of increasing fervor with every encounter
Do you believe there is someone out there who can
clearly see, just what you need, and respond in the most perfect way?
How comforting to find intimacy, after so much distance
What a thrill to finally feel passion
What a delight to find another to play with, to create
And the romance that shone a light over a dull horizon
Has now turned into anticipation
A dance of peace and calm and balance that brings only satisfaction
How tender and soft the vulnerable moments could be
How true the friendship
How difficult the parting
Unforgettable and everlasting.

The boy who was (never) good enough

I may be off-base But I think I recognize it This desire to give As a way to provide Yourself with a pleasing identity.

Did you face the pain of choosing a path That took you away or made you unkindly? Was your brother the asshole And you didn’t mind it Because it meant you could be the one To fix feelings all around you. And when you were older Did you pick girls that reminded You of the woman who was always demanding? And did you feel good  When you provided  All of the joy that wasn’t inside her? But when you messed up Were you the same disappointment? The boy who was (never) good enough But couldn’t stop striving. I hope one day you see That you’re worthy of love Without needing to give Or be perfect. Above all I hope you reme...

The angry woman

I am the angry woman I'm bleeding white-hot rage My fury of tears will drown you You should all feel afraid.  My tongue is poised for lashing My feet are here to crush My lungs are filled with fire I cannot stop the rush. My skin is scalding ashes  Of a burning, ember heart My words beat down like hail My screams are lightning darts. Watch me drink the poison And wait for you to die I am the angry woman But you all think I lie.
