Gray
The land of nowhere
Found tiptoeing
Between
Great heavy shadows
Holding hostage
Fearful what if’s
And the light
Bare naked brightness
Secrets once
Owned in terror
No more
Have power
Release
Peace
Freedom
Life

Very little
Of myself
Have I shared
With you
In fact
I’ve even kept
Myself from myself
Some days I’ve
Felt so betrayed
So overlooked
But,
My thought’s
Have been terribly misinformed
Thinking I should be seen
When I’ve barely shone
What light
Did I give
You to follow?
You can’t behold
A woman
Who’s dimmed
Her spirit
To obscure dusk
Naturally,
She’s nowhere
To be found

You will tell everyone
How you prayed
And how I answered
Love,
God

I am stepping
Into
The petticoats of my dreams
Sailing away
On winds of the fate
Towards
The lands
Where I truly belong

Every story
I’ve ever lived
Recorded by my
Beating heart
Speaks no language
Man can decode
Unless he looks
Into my eyes
Those windows
To the pages
Of my soul
It would take
His lifetime
And then some
To read
Carefully
Through them all

Got a smile on my face
A twinkle in my soul
A little swag in my stride
Faith in new beginnings
Working out
In favor
Of my destiny

Art
Is my language
Running
Through my veins
Dripping
Off my fingertips
Born
To create
By my creator
Beauty
So many forms
Beholden
I am the beholder

I’m gonna love you
Love you like never before
Straight outta my heart
Throw back my head
Kick up my heels
Laugh from the bottom of my soul
Fully love living this life
Free

I was born
With the stars
In my eyes
A million dollar baby
Even if
No one realized it
I knew it
The stars knew it
My future knows it

Pulsating through my soul
Pushing me
Driving me
Forward into
Places I never imagined

Out for a Walk
Come
I will walk
Beside you
All the way
Through
Don’t give up
Don’t give in
Discomfort is deceit
We will take
One step
Of progress
At a time

Switching things up
Making moves
Smooth & sharp
Success is the groove

Nobody thinks to ask
These old walls
What they have seen
Or what they know
Of storms weathered
And survived
Proud memories
Only history can tell
Maybe someday too soon
These bricks
Once so carefully laid
Will carelessly
Be torn down
Modern progress
Wiping away
All these walls
Have sheltered
Love & violence
Tears & laughter
Stories –
Way too many to tell
But these walls
Can’t talk anyway
And if they could
Nobody would think to ask

City lights
Each one
One soul’s story
Life
Won or lost
Illuminate
Extinguish
Destiny turns
On a dime

Creeping
Down the middle track
Ghastly floodlights
Chasing scrappy rats
Snippets
Of zombie passengers
Flicker
Between gaps in grime layered walls
Grinding
Screechy sci-fi

Hot under feet

Glimmering beads
Cascading everywhere
Droplets of hope
Shimmering
Playfully splash
Every one
Molecules of dreams
