I am the dark

What am I doing 
Am I out of control 
Spiralling Spiralling 
To where I don't know

I haunt haunted places
Obsessed by the pain
Waiting to feel
The darkness again 

I am the dark 
I need to be free
Never condemned 
By normality

So I'll walk down those paths
I know them so well
I'll stay in my shadows 
A comfortable hell

I Am Nobody for You

I am nobody for you.
You don't know I exist, too.
I'm a simple, shy girl
with some sixteen-year-old fantasies, too.

You don't know me, 
and I either, too -
but there's something 
I feel, too.

Wanna step up, 
getting high with you, 
scared to fall
in the images, too.

How say hi? 
How say bye? 
I'm here, 
watching you 
side of my

Premium MemberTeeter Totters

I’m tired of the teeter-totter polemics 
that pass for profundity.
I’m tired of the see-saw tug of war,
the streaming regurgitation on every channel.

Yes, I’m weary of the predictable posturing,
the vapid, barren landscapes of the oligarchy.
I am groggy in the dull fog of capitalist pretense,
the plutocratic hubris sold by carnival barkers.
 
I am worn down by the

Premium MemberI Am The Frost

I am not warmth denied.  
I am clarity revealed.

You call me cold, as if that were a curse.  
But cold is not cruelty.  
Cold is precision.  
Cold is the silence that listens longer than the noise ever could.

I was not born in comfort.  
I was forged in exile—cast out by

I AM NOW FREE

His fists were the words he knew best,
A language of rage, a constant test.
He built a throne on her broken trust,
His kingdom a wasteland of bitter dust.

She served him strength, he gave her fear,
A daily ration of every tear.
He twisted her heart with his cunning lies,
A mirror that showed him in her eyes.

He called her

Premium MemberI am alone, with silence biting deep into my bones

I am alone, with silence biting deep into my bones,
It's not pure quiet, but a sharp stir, a void that gnaws at me,
It digs a dwelling in the marrow of my being, and I wonder,
Am I condemned to walk forever on dark paths,
With darkness as my only companion, an echo in the night?
The future flickers,

Premium MemberI am inhabited by a cry that weaves its shadows in silence

I am inhabited by a cry that weaves its shadows in silence,
Night after night it takes flight from bitter corners,
It searches in endless depths, with claws of longing, for something to love,
I am terrified of this shadow that sleeps in my soul;
All day I feel it spinning gently, like a dream, within me,
It stretches its

Premium MemberRainfall Reflections

A hush of gray descends, the world outside a blur
Of weeping glass and dancing leaves, a gentle stir.
The scent of wet earth and cooled pavement climbs the air,
As warmth from a steaming cup soothes away all care.

In her hands, a porcelain hug, the tea's floral grace,
Sweet steam whispers against the skin of her face.
The book

Premium MemberI am too fragile to let people penetrate into my inner world

I am too fragile to let people penetrate into my inner world,
Too shy to complain about something, to express my dissatisfaction,
So sensitive that their words become burdens heavy to carry,
Too emotional to handle the turmoil that haunts my heart.
I am chaos, a strange one, always known as being unknown,
Silence and time spent alone are often

Premium Memberhello I am your nurse

hello I am your nurse, she said.
There will be a small pinch.
From behind her back, she brings out something enormous.
it takes two hands and a foot
because it is huge
the biggest shot dispenser I have ever seen
I begin screaming
no one comes
I am alone with this killer nurse
my second most horrible nightmare
the first one concerns a dentist

I am an Instagram Model

I dress with less for my body flouncing 

My titties jiggle and my ass is bouncing 

I prance around to ring your bell 

And call myself an Instagram “model” 

 

I make up my face and pout my lips 

I put on the music and shake my hips 

I do up my hair with lots
