Damaged Love
[Stanza 1] Suddenly, the clouds above become gray, Like a sudden sharp knife, the words you say. My heart used to beat so strong, pure, and true, Now lies destroyed under the sky so blue; [Stanza 2] My spirit just bleeds from a wound so deep, This silent loss makes my soul read and weep; I look for hints of reason I can...

Storm clouds
I wonder if I search for storm clouds in peoples eyes or if I put them there. Shocked when the rain starts and the thunder roars. Lightning flashes. I wonder if the rain stops. I wonder at rain drops. Falling, stalling, halting. I wonder at anger. Where it comes from and when it will pass. The smell of...

Electric Summer Mist
In summer's heat, where vibrant blossoms sway, A storm awakens, darkened clouds align, The thunder whispers secrets of the day, While lightning's flash reveals the past's design. Beneath the tempest's wrath, my heart takes flight, To memories concealed in shadow's veil, Each droplet falls, a tear of lost delight,...

THE OTHERSIDE
There's always the otherside of something so beautiful Dunno why it finds me Crashing like a storm Drencing me with sorrow Slamming me back to the place I hardly belong Pull me out Bring me peace It's too much chaos here I cannot breathe... ...

The strength we embody
They told us our skin meant exile That our joy would be put on trial Because it brings rain But how can they hate the rain when it nourishes the ground we walk on The same ground that grows the food we need to survive They want us to cower in the face of their Whiteness To bow down to their...

Premium Member My Friend Is the Ocean
My friend is the ocean, waters that glide, Rustling my footsteps and tousling my hair; Many the times that we walked side by side, A spark and forever, joined as a pair. Always a cloud there lay over its play, Dappled the sunlight that fell on my face; Heaving, its waters had something to say; Twilight with meteors it took for the...

Premium Member The Storm Water Pipe
The storm water pipe gaped into open air from an embankment where it surfaced from underground. The opening was a little smaller than my childhood height and they said it stretched a mile or more but nobody knew for sure. A danger sign warned against entry saying the pipe was subject to sudden flooding - a protective grate had a hole big enough to crawl through. I would...

The sound of breaking
The sound of breaking is late. Thunder shatters gray clouds after lightning strikes the damp soil. When pieces of sky pierce flesh, the scream is slow to rise— The sound of breaking follows pain’s echo. The sound of breaking is gentle. Raindrops tiptoe on my eyelids— each sting a secret pressed down. Earth's unbridled tears fall for my...

Not Her Fault
"It was your dress," they replied Was it? The ripped fabric cried The 5-year-old's laughter silenced that day Couldn't even scream, "I'm just a child," and ran away "It was your shorts," they claimed Was it? The torn seams proclaimed The 10-year-old's dreams shattered, flamed Couldn't even cry, "I'm just a girl," with shame "It was your clothes," they blamed Was it? The cloth...

Why The Grey Sky Grew
Why the grey sky grew Could it be because of you? Or because my heart's feeling blue The sun only shines when I'm with you When we're far apart The world grows dark It thunders and rains Blowing wind that chills my veins Occasionally striking the garden we grew A garden of love built by me and you The anger of fire will destroy the...

Premium Member Lacking an Anchor
A drift in a sea of longing, rudderless and without direction. Trying to stay afloat amidst the relentless winds and currents whipping the crests into a frenzy. At the mercy of the nautical tempest, in a fruitless battle to maintain control, I’m losing sight of the sheltered harbor that was my refuge from this upheaval brought on by the forced solitude when you left...

The Silent Storm
A silent storm is brewing within my chest A benumbing chill sets my soul aflame A warm welcome sets alarm bell ringing, In the realm of hush at the dawn of dusk do you hear the swooshing of the waves on the sandy shore? Do you hear the shush...
