Still . . .

I watch you run
Like wolves through the forest
Fast and light
Barely touching the ground
As you rush to his side
You hold on tight
To his thin cold body
Checking his pulse and listening for a breath
You cry because you can't handle the pain
Tears stream down like curtains
Covering your once pigmented skin
You shake him and yell at him
Trying to bring back the motionless body
Refusing to accept what has happened
But nothing helps
He's gone...

I Saw You In My Dreams Last Night . . .

I saw you in my dreams last night
You stood above my headboard
You watched over me
You took me by the hand and led me into you arms
With a gentle smile on your face
You held me close and tight
Warmer than I remembered
I felt the tears fall from your face
As they joined mine
And fled to the floor
I knew this would be the last time
That I would never see you again
But still I cling to your skin
Crying with you and feeling timeless
You kissed my forehead
And as your lips left my wet pale skin
I woke up.

To A Dear Friend . . .

You will never know how much I care
How much I love every stare
How much I long to hug you
And how much I love you too

You will always be the one I look to
The one I can talk to
The one I can run to in the middle of the night
And the one I can depend on to brighten my day

But what I need you to know
Is how much you mean to me
Is how much I cherish you
And how much I need you

Because without you I can't do this
I know I tried to get rid of you
But I couldn't which is why I came back
I'm not ready to loose you

I'm not ready to say goodbye
I"m not ready to see you leave
I'm not ready to watch you walk away
And I'm not ready to see you die

Know that I am always here
Know that I am always near
Know that I will never leave you
Know that I will always need you

Know that I will always try
And know that I will always cry
Because a world without you
Just isn't fair
And a you without life
I just couldn't bare.

In Memory . . .

To all those who are silenced
I write to you
In honor of all that you have become
The respect you all have
Is moving.
The lost words are ones,
That scare others.
And to all those who are lost
Because of this silence
I write to you.
To all those who have fought
To all those who have won
And to all those who have lost
I write to you
About all that we have overcome
So to those who read this poem
To those who see these words
I am silent
For all of you.

Always Been You . . .

I've been thinkin' bout
All the days
We've been through
Wonderin' why they all look the same
I'm just lookin' back
Makin sure
That this is it
Wonderin' if we'll make it hrough
Is it right
Is it wrong
Or is it just in this song.

Pity The Super Mom . . .

Pity the super mom
Whose always doing things
Who always has friends over
Who always has needs
Whose always going here and ther
Whose never ever there
Whose always buying things for you
Whose always saying she loves you
Whose always kicking you out
Who always has to be right
I'm sorry...

Untitled . . .

The wind howls,
And you cheer,
For the undead rise again into power.
They capture our dreams,
And shatter our truths.
They make us question what we know,
And what we believe.
They surround us in their beauty,
And shine upon us like angels,
Bittersweet in their existence.
