Separates Herself

She sketched a line

in the sands of time.

So neither heart nor mind

would reunite

and ignite the war

once again ...

No Passing Time

if you listen close,

you'll hear the collision

of breaking bones

collide head-on with fate

as the future doubles back.

the lines told me

to stay in my lane.

but baby, we're just lines and fragments hoping to connect; parallel lines that people forget.  

one life leads to the next.

we don't live; just die. this is death.

The night poetry came to life

A wide-eyed night

Poetry playing before our eyes

Starving for every line

We numbed our faces

And blew our minds

A Piece of You

Swaddle me

Lulled to sleep

Inside the lines

Beneath your eyes

A blue iridescence

Of crescent moons

Pooling with tears

Trip The Light

Sway with my silhouette.

Frolic along my border.

Enchant the grooves of my yesterday's moves,

Wrapping skein through the score of my spirit.

Lines

Paint on canvas

Ink on paper

Marks called numbers

Around a corner or across seas

Lines speak to a heart

Change a mind

Shape a mind

Lines enable and create.

Read Between the Lines

Doused with issues

As thick as ink

The pen -

With its problems

The paper -

A shrink

Between the lines

Of fantasy and reality

They meet

Lifelines

The lifelines

on a child's palm

never tell of the tears,

battle cries, quiet romances,

and shattered pieces of heart he clutches

until the day the lines cover his face.
