Time

Time 

 

 If time could be turned back

To have you as my love

Would we be ourselves,

Or different people?

A fickle thing time is

I found you too late

I curse the fates

why couldn’t I have my love?

How will I survive without my love?

Face the trails ahead and stay sane,

The fates have been cruel I think,

They denied me my love

How can I keep going?

How will I survive without you?

Why did I deserve to lose you?

If only time could turn back

Reeling

Reeling

Reeling from the pain

Of a hurt that runs so deep

Nothing can assuage it

Nothing can make it go away

I wish I could bury it

Force it to go away

Wanting to be free of the pain

Needing to be free of the pain

All I can do is hurt

I can’t think clearly for the pain

That has caused my heart to crack

It’s too late to mend the hurt

To forgive the hurt would be hard

Harder still is to forget it.

My dilemma is as old as time

Will my heart heal,

Can my heart heal

From the blow it received

I hope so; I need it to

So that I may be free

To be happy again.

I Need You

I Need You 

I need you I realized

I am not complete

Without you.

My heart races

When you are near.

A shiver courses

Through me

When you speak.

I need you always

I need you near.

I crave your touch

I crave your smiles

I’m a puddle at your feet

I shiver in delight

When you smile at the sight

I purr with contentment

when you are near

Stay by my side and

I’ll have no fear

My love is lasting

Of that I’m sure

I need you always

I need you near

I crave your embrace

I crave your love

A look can lift me up

As well as send me down

You have such power

You don’t even know

I need you always

I need you near.

My Heart

My Heart

Whips and chains may excite me,

But love is what is binding.

When I give my heart

I give it freely.

Have a care with the gift

For once broken

It’s hard to mend it.

Have a care with my heart,

For that binds me to you.

Sliding

Sliding

Sliding into my heart

You made me forget

Everything but you

I needed a friend

You brought me sunshine

You gave me laughter

You lifted me up

From being so down

I knew I was blue

And you were so caring

I’m glad to have you

Sliding around in my life.

The Rage

The Rage

The rage builds inside me

Needing to come out

The atrocities committed

The senseless waste

Countless lives lost

The injustice of suffering

The need to strike out

The need to hurt and maim

As I hurt for those lost

The rage has control of me

The blood lust grows stronger

The need to retaliate consumes

Crying tears for the lost ones

Heart aches for those left behind

Grounding to survive the pain

Needing to feel love to continue

A caress, an embrace & a cuddle

Helps renew my faith in our world.

A blossoming of love toward others

An elemental dislike of a foe grows

The anger subsides as we unite.

Tailspin

Tailspin

Spiraling down to the depths,

Of my darkest thoughts

Needing to come up for air,

Yet drowning in my own pain.

My anger is the poison,

My thoughts are my demons

My heart aches with sorrow

My body punished for no reason

My self-confidence shattered

My sanity questioned

In order to survive

I must look in the mirror

What will I see?

Only the truth…I think.

My mirror will not lie

I am sure of that

It may be hard to see

But I must see to grow

Now I am stronger

I saw in the mirror

What has always been there,

Yet was too afraid to come out.
