Pieces

My heart is bleeding off its safest place,

And conceding the past to a future

That was harmed by a dagger in fate’s space.

As when a fool and fantasy suture,

Mine eyes thought hollow beauty were a suitor,

So failed the test to trust the just Est knight.

My soul believed the solemn silence butcher:

This beast did feast with undivided right.

A hallowed demon took my sight and might,

His hand possessed the blade of shining love;

Which bright as a candle in the noon daylight,

It cut loose the wisdom of love from above.

Now arise thou in treason and bleed him,

To claim again the pieces of my freedom.

All I Can Do Is Write





i'm trembling ,

 my safest place... right there in my chest.....is bleeding ....


.but.. all i can do is write .

i swallowed a dagger today....i know what it is doing to my insides ....

but all i can do is write........

 i see colors...

 but none of them bright , i see a future that makes me sad to think of the past....

but all i can do is write..........

 i failed the test of the right one to trust, now a spot on my back is cut deep....

but ..all i can do is write......

 everytime i belived,

every time i calmed down. . .i cut away a piece of my freedom and wisdom. . .

but all i can do is write. . . 

THE DAY I RISE,

 STRONGER THAN FOREVER ,STRONGER THAN YOUR THOUGHTS! ! ! !

 ALL YOU WILL BE ABLE TO DO IS NOTHING!

Kingdom In My Heart

who lived like me? who fought with me? who reached the darkness before i did? i lay them down, my walls and fears if you would tell me which stone not to turn. . . but so selflessly i rode into a storm . . . . . . . .IN MY HEART A LITTLE KINGDOM FALLS, and i live 4 that day, like a prophesy foretold.. that one will come and we will build it once again...

Hold On

I have worked hard to get here,
to a place where i can be valuable,
to have an experience that puts every piece of me together,
to make myself beautiful on the outside as I am on the inside;
To come so far I started with nothing,
no self-esteem, no hope , no strength, no breath, no faith or light to spare....

 and here I am today,
 reeling from a battle that cracked, broke and killed parts of me...
 
and yet today,
I still can't hold on to a dream.
