TOMORROW

Confusion owns me 

like the web of a spider

Life seems to have

a sense of humor

Timing so wrong

on so many things

He owns my heart

like a vice 

too tight

I can’t breath

—-

But I long for him

I shake my head

on a regular basis

trying to get clarity

I hear people make 

sounds with their mouths

but can’t understand the words

My mind is filled with him

just him

Like the air in a helium balloon

so full of thoughts

they lift me out of the room

---

My thoughts haunt me

Did I walk away from 

the best thing in my life

or escape from 

the worst nightmare

I could imagine

—-

I write to him in invisible letters

they never get on the page

Instead I tell of common events 

of the day

Afraid to say

how I feel

He once was mine

but I ran like Julia Roberts

in “The Runaway Bride”

I want to bring him 

my shoes and nail them

to the ground 

So he sees I can stay 

some day

When I learn to trust

—-

Feels like an endless book

want to flip thru the chapters

get to the end to see what happens

but I can’t

I have to let it unfold

as it will

and try to hold 

onto my sanity

Find ways to look outside of the pain

so I don’t drown in the sea of endless sorrow

"There’s always tomorrow" claims

the famous song in the show “Annie”

Hope she’s right.

BLESSED

So a bit more up lifting. Relationships are always a mystery to me

Does true love

exist?

The kind where

a man would 

lay down his life

for his wife

A woman lets 

her man be a man

Mutual respect

outweighs

who is right 

and who is wrong

An undeniable

fire burns

with desire for both

Where divorce

is a word 

never spoken

or considered

If you can say “yes”

you are “blessed”

more than the wealthiest man

in the land.

TIME

When does my heart

stop breaking

stop aching

Love is not 

for the taking

for all

Love seems 

to come and go

Doesn’t seem 

to flow

for all

Did I get in the 

wrong line

Only time

will tell.

COLORS

OK I got a bit crazy tonight. I wanted to do a poem using colors and emotions. I came up with this silly poem lol

I am feeling blue

today

Because I didn’t get my 

way

Turned purple

with rage  

When I tried to engage

conversation 

With a yellow 

coward

That said I was not

in the pink

I told him I was going

to cause a brown out

In his town

So they would have a black day

If he did not say 

He was wrong.

INVISIBLE PEOPLE

Sitting on the bathroom floor sobbing
wondering if others
converse with people who are not there

To those that have torn their hearts
into tiny pieces
the invisible people who were vapor
when their bodies were in the room

Irina Dunn coined the phrase
"a woman needs a man like a fish needs a bicycle"
I repeat that to myself often

I wonder how many women howl in the night
missing the touch of a man.

SEXY BOY

OK I may be old but I'm not dead lol. Gotta have a bit of a sense of humor for this one...

Something happened 

to my soul 

when I laid eyes on you

The clock turned back

I was eighteen

Hips swinging

face grinning

A prance in my step

a wiggle in my walk

Naughty talk

came to my mouth

feeling things down south

Feet off the ground

listening to the sound

Of the Beach Boys

Watch out girls

The sexy boy 

is back in town

Oh Yeah Babe.
