you dream of a tree on your back, a crow
on your shoulder, whispering to you,
feathers floating free,
the wind covering your body like a
wild animal, you have no more rules
for this body.
you write a love poem
for the uninterested--
tuck it under the mattress for a
younger generation to find
or the man who comes to take your bed
after you move away into the hills,
never to be seen again.
there comes a time for phone calls to home
for phone service to extend into the universe
where you've hidden among the exploded supernovas
in an attempt to fix things that you didn't break.
mother's spasming hands that drop dishes to the cold tile,
reading has become a special occasion
only to be done while researching something unnamed.
you cannot name the forces at work
behind your eyes or learn how your bones hold together
without reading it over & over, reciting it in your head
until all you can think of is how pointless it is to be held together
when it's so easy to be taken apart.
adam's rib so easily undone.
you pull out the old anatomy book you bought
naming the names of what holds you together -
the necessary and unnecessary.
your arm spasming relentlessly and you wish your
body was written out in red and blue,
not turning black.

My Promises To You
I promise to always love you
Today and every day that follows
I am handing you my heart
May it go wherever yours goes
I promise to never leave you
I will stand forever by your side
There's nothing that can break us
When our hearts are intertwined
I promise that in our dying days
When nothing is as it was before
Not only will I still love you
I will love you even more

Love?
I cannot imagine why Love,
my love,
my anger,
my guilt
at this moment,
consumes the remainder
of my pleasure.
It seems that
despite the silence,
my wounds
are not healing.
It doesn’t matter…
I weep in agony
and my heart
is nothing but a shackle
to bind my pulse;
my existence in this…
comfortable destruction.
Emotional walls do talk;
much like a silent smile
can break across a face,
and tears can betray.
Perfectly good emotions
fester in the soul,
and what were once traces
of complete and tender
caresses of passion while
resting in comforting arms…
are now scars;
numb,
deep,
and cold

I look deep in his eyes.
His personality,
the way he makes me feel
and his intoxicating smile.
It makes me feel...
Madness
with him I lose my mind,
to the desire and lustful nights.
The love
and passion that we share,
when we become one.
He is my better half
and has the key to my heart.
It makes me feel...
Courageous
I can take on the world,
with him by my side.
My rock and motivation
he drives me to succeed.
To makes something for ourselves,
proving everyone wrong
who brought us down.
To become get married
and have a family; to gain an...
