Cafe Nowhere...open mic

From the darkness, a shadowy figure draws near the mic to share their words.

We all have tears
That go away.
We all have fears
That seem to stay.
It's not enough
To love and care,
For life itself
Is never fair.
With no love left
I say, my friend
You start to die
A little then.

Shy

Graceful,
Immediate
to delay..
Elated smiles,
Forgetful.
She knew how
to say
My name.
She hid
in the palm
of My hand.
but It felt
Good.
She blushed
shades of Rose.
And she
was Beautiful
every Sunrise,
Every sunset
and She felt
Good.

kindred

she
appears and I
am smiling

with magic words,
crystal whim
she
commands angels,
speaks sunshine into
darkened corners, drizzles
hope like honey
on inflamed
thoughts, splintered
dreams, festered
memories

I am set free
and speechless
I am bruised, made
whole, bleeding new
life

she
knows, and I
kneel at this
altar of fire
and moonlight

gentle goddess
she
is trembling, eternity
dripping from
her tongue

truth takes no
prisoners, but hell could
never hold
us

I am smiling

Forget his name.
Forget his face.
Forget his kiss.
His warm embrace.
Forget the face you once stared.
Forget the love you once shared.
Forget the times you were together.
Remember now he's gone forever.
Forget the times he was so mad.
Remember you're the girl he once had.
Forget his gentle teasng way,
Forget you saw him yesterday
Forget the things you used to do.
Remember now she loves him too.
Forget the way he spoke your name,
Remember that things aren't the same.
Forget he said our loves for sure.
Remember now he's loving her.
Forget the way he held your hand.
Forget the walks along the sand.
Forget the times that went so fast,
Remember now, they're in the past.
Forget he said ,I'll leave you never,
Remember now, he's gone forever.

One

High on the hillside
Where the stallion meets the sun
Where the wind caresses the mountainside
We stood viewing all time
Stretched out invitingly before us.

Slowly reaching for you
And you for me
Our eyes met knowing
That the two of us
For all time
Would be one.

One with the universe
One with creation
One in the eternity
Of ourselves.

Lost, Desperation, and Dispare
Tiredly wondering why your not there.
Roaming around in a daze,
Otherwise I'm lost in a maze.
Hurting, crying, and otherwise dead.
Deeper and deeper into the red.
No way out, it's all in the air
Lost, Desperation, and Dispare
