Alive and Dying

As I look around
My anger rages on
As People fight over
Answers not yet found

Overlooked are
Simple things which
Provide the lives
We lead:
Trees, schools,
People and
Feathers fallen from
Birds wings

Broken Glass

The pieces of glass
that lay by the tracks
are unique in every way
from they spot that each
was found to the
way that each one was made
and how each and every one
came to be the way they are today.

Sugar

A cherry blossom fallen
Lives disintegrating
from sitting in Salivating
mouths Too long, sugar.
Swallow it as the small
red fruit Grows
from the branches
of a tree in spring.

Dreaming Minds

Peaceful children fast asleep
I wonder what they dream of...
they must dream of wonderful things.

So valiant and strong,
curious, and confident,
one day they will be heroes;
blessing the world with their
virtues and voices.

These children of mine
still so small, they love to cuddle
and play, and have no worries
at all. If only we all could be
that way, it would make things
so much nicer in this world today.

Directions

There are many
Things that have
Occurred to me
This past week
Like how I
Would like to have
Someone to hold
And be held by
Who isn't holding
Someone else.
I heard a friend
Today
Say things I
Listened to
And now it
All makes sense
And I know where
To go
From here.

Losing

Whatever it is that girl would do
it never seemed correct. And if
she tried to fix it, she would only do right less.
She failed at quitting cigarettes,
and as a stay at home mom, and then just
yesterday she really took the cake, she lost
two hundred dollars, and it's completely out of sight.

The poor girl looked everywhere for
the money she had lost
and she failed in finding it and now will
pay the cost. There will be no family
at x-mas time this year.
She lost two hundred dollars and her self-respect
I fear.

Restar

Re-
star the planet
with another
shin-
ing face.
Push that
star out
from within
you, and up,
up
into the sk-
y.

You

What is it about the way you tease,
that makes me laugh, and love you more?
How do you make me so
angry and happy at the same time?
I don't understand what you did
to make me love you...No wait
I do, you were just being you.

When you held my hand in the
ICU, when you cut the umbilical cord.
I'll never forget the day that we saw
the couple we dream of being...They
looked so happy, had been loving for ages.
Maybe all this is just one of the stages
you go through when you are in love,
before you realize that you won't live forever.
I can't wait to go visit the places
where we grew up so close and yet never
met faces...We will bring back the dog that
you love soo much, and the cat that
you bought me while we were still
feeling young.

The Embraced

Bless me with your sacred touch
Warm my heart with your smile
The skyis fiercely purple
Crickets sing a song
We all know will never end

Caress my body with your fingers
Love me everywhere
The Sweet loving of your teeth
Upon my breast so tender

Sink them in to your desire
Me me your immortal love
Embrace me
Please embrace me

For thine is the life of the dead
A wonderful trail to walk
The two of us may never die
As long as we are together

Sleepy One

The child which will not let me type
is heavy and tired in my arms.
sleep will not return to his body
so he rests in the comfort of my arms.
stuffy nose, and curious hands
he wanders off only to return
with a weak whine, and
desperate eyes, searching for the comfort
only his mother can provide him with.

GRAVITY

Gravity holds my

Body to this place

Not my soul,

Not my soul.

Searching left and

Searching right only

For questions,

Answers, and life.

Hubby Lovin'

I love him with all my heart, and know he loves me too...It's such a loss that I can't show him just how much he means to me.
Why is it so hard to feel the things I know as true? What is causing this great emptiness inside me?
Stress could be the culprit, that's very plain to see. Especially with all the debts accumulating around me.
Maybe it is jealousy, or an urge to prove my independence. He takes care of the money making and I want to prove that I could do it too.
Don't get me wrong I love my life, and the kids are great the only thing that keeps me down is this unknown sadness that has enveloped me...
