Women

Being a woman

means battling the balance

of softness and strength.

Piracy

How do you feel safe

when your captain of safety

becomes a pirate?

The missing you

It's not the coffee

that wakes me up each morning.

It's the missing you.

I am tired and sad

and have no clue why I'm here.

I feel so useless.

Hope

Hope whispers through

shadows and beams of light;

our feet grounded,

and in flight.

Mask

The best intentions

disguise our heart's true desire

to live wickedly.

Word Spinners

They were lovers of words

in a world that had all but forgotten them.

Each line, each paragraph

puzzle pieces from their hearts.

Only those who understood,

fit in the spaces where the words were not.

Not Accepted

You say you're sorry,

but that won't work anymore.

Words are not enough.

grieving for people

you will never even know;

they left far too soon

Sleep

Away the light danced,

leaving dreamers in the dark;

losing remembrance.
