You Ask

You ask
Why you haven't
heard from me today?
I answered:
I was listening
to your
Silence
So I could clearly
Hear
Your words....
You said
I love you
You said
I WILL
call you back...
I'm listening
To your silence....
Hear my words
I love you
Your Silence is
deafening
In my words....

Storm Brews

Oh the  thunder rumbles on the distant horizon...like a spurned lover she summons her inner strength. ....the air quickend with anticipation of what is to come ...the shrill call of the owl softens as it awaits, only to be magnified by the heady scent of the tea olives early arrival ...sweet...pungent. ..strong...a storm brews...let it descend..

Change

Empty
When I should be
Full

Sad
When I should be
Happy

Lost
When I should be
Found

Scared
When I should be
Secure

Desperate
When I should be
Content

All these things tell me....
I must change
All these things about me....


Beautiful

She was beautiful, but not like those girls in the magazines.
She was beautiful, for the way she thought.
She was beautiful, for the sparkle in her eyes when she talked about something she loved.
She was beautiful, for her ability to make other people smile, even if she was sad.
No, she wasn't beautiful for something as temporary as her looks.
She was beautiful, deep down to her soul.
She is beautiful.

Done

I'm done
Over and over
I've pleaded for respect
Over and over
You've done nothing but neglect.

My feelings for you
Have always been so true
How the fuck
Are you doing the things you do?

Some days you call
So often I can't keep up
Other days you ignore me
Like you don't give a fuck!!!!

How do you expect me
To continue and be true
When this entire relationship
Is all about YOU?

You need to learn
I have feelings too
Not just when
They are fucking convenient to you!

I could go on and on and on
I could even write a number one song....
About the way my love is so true
And how in your mind it's all about YOU!!!!

So take these words
I so boldly state
And learn from this
How to treat your mate.

She Is Me

She is sad
She is hurt
She is dying
She is alone
She is lonely
She is a mess
She is judged
She is ignored
She is suicidal
She is stressed
She is confused
She is depressed
She is misunderstood
She is tired but still living
She is hurt but won't show it
She is screaming but is silent
She is in pain but still smiling
She is ME.....

Fool Inside Her

Such a fool
Setup by herself
Knowing in advance
She didn't stand a chance.

Day after day
Hope is all she had
Knowing deep inside
Even that hope was bad.

When will she put
An end to her pain
By facing the truths
She has nothing to gain.

Her lonely heart
And desperate soul
Blinded her sight
From the truth she was told.

Her inner self
Told her
Over and over again
With this man
You will never win.

She tells herself
After every
Broken promise
Next time he calls
She will not answer.

Somehow the sounds
Of his ring tone triggers
The fool inside her
Who doesn't stand a chance.
