I’m not ready…

On days when the threat to my peace, the thing I call the enemy, seems to be larger than anything I can deal with on my own – I choose silence out of fear that a flood gate will open either from my mouth or my eyes and I won’t be able to stop it.ContinueContinue reading “I’m not ready…”

The Internalization and Overthought of a Gemini…yeah, she cray cray

Yesterday was the start of Gemini Season.  I know right? Quarantine happened and we’re all just quietly thinking about all the things we’d do if social distancing weren’t a thing, all the fun to be had, all the boyfriends and girlfriends we’d steal, all the bodies we’d bury for our friends, all the gambling (ContinueContinue reading “The Internalization and Overthought of a Gemini…yeah, she cray cray”

A Drawn Conclusion / Wednesday Humpings … or not

The first thing I did was to make an outline you, the perfect silhouette of your perfect frame  – and after I did that I practiced writing in cursive with my and your name. I thought that fine art such as you should have a special place to hang and be seen. So I choseContinueContinue reading “A Drawn Conclusion / Wednesday Humpings … or not”

Healing Old Feelings

Strange feelings today that overflowed from last night. I feel like I lost me somewhere. I went to bed feeling confused about some things and feelings. And woke up with those very same feelings but stronger. So I’m going to attempt to understand these things here tonight. For the last few days I’ve been goingContinueContinue reading “Healing Old Feelings”

I feel… / A rainy Sunday

like antiquity. An object forgotten by time, that somehow washed up on the shore of existence, battered and weathered by the elements. Given little value or physical relevance to the present …and I was once a gift. Maybe it’s just me…but there seems to be a number of us having the same dream, waking upContinueContinue reading “I feel… / A rainy Sunday”

A Lil Bit Of You / A Lil bit of Friday

I can only take you in small doses, for fear you might be too much and it’s with this that I shy away from your generous loving touch We do more than most and it reflects on us, the way we shine and I always want to bring you with me, to never leave youContinueContinue reading “A Lil Bit Of You / A Lil bit of Friday”

Taken (dark poem) / After the rain…

You take my time like it’s all yours and not mine you mind my business and write my wrongs then get mad because I say that’s fine.   I show you where to take issue with me and you complain I’m not listening to you, I talk and talk and talk to let you knowContinueContinue reading “Taken (dark poem) / After the rain…”

Feeling Loved

I think in one way or another, we all crave human contact and by extension, Love. Love is a drug more satisfying and deadly than anything a dope dealer could peddle. First off, it’s free…and at the same time, limited. Some of us settle for quick fixes like affection or endearing words. Second, even thoughContinueContinue reading “Feeling Loved”

Cue the music… (music and time)

What did Rihanna mean by “we found love in a hopeless place”? Did she get a glimpse of the future? Did she see now? 2020 being the hopeless place that it is. Was this a warning in our past present that we would somehow succumb to this? Yesteryears wouldn’t even know what we have comeContinueContinue reading “Cue the music… (music and time)”
