The Echoes

For something so small
And so damaging
You sure go down smooth 
The sugar coating slides down my throat
Into the empty abyss of my stomach 
Where it dissolves and gets absorbed into my bloodstream 
And silences all thoughts and numbs the pain 

My personality is not multi-faceted 
It is multiple people fighting for dominance 
I sometimes forget who I am or where I am 
In my own little ship 
Sailing across the water 

If I take enough ibuprofen,
I don't feel pain 
The seas calm 
But the waves come 
Every time another mind takes over 
At this point I'm overdosing
All of my joy and pain 
Belong to another 

I'm drifting into turbulent waters 
And I can't swim back to the safety of the shore 
I am just a little girl at heart 
Trapped in a mental prison 
The original mind I once knew 
Has been gone for years


Just Love Me For One More Day

Our road has been long and has led us here
You want to leave but our affection pulls us near
There’s tension here from floor to ceiling
But we know deep down there is still that feeling

Our hearts are broken and now astray
Just love me for one more day
You ask me what can we do to repay
Just love me for one more day
I’m only asking for you to stay
Just love me for one more day
I can’t think of any other way
Just love me for one more day

We’ve had our tears and said farewell 
Will we ever meet again only time will tell
If we do there will never be any surprise
To look at each other again with the same passion in our eyes

Our hearts are broken and now astray
Just love me for one more day
You ask me what can we do to repay
Just love me for one more day
I’m only asking for you to stay
Just love me for one more day
I can’t think of any other way
Just love me for one more day

Our essence travels through each others bloodstream
No one can ever stop our life dream
Separated tomorrow but bonded tonight
We share a soul forever until the last dawns light

Our hearts are broken and now astray
Just love me for one more day
You ask me what can we do to repay
Just love me for one more day
I’m only asking for you to stay
Just love me for one more day
I can’t think of any other way
Just love me for one more day

Sigrid's Sandbags

Braced to fight tough for triumph 
         Stockpiled testosterone
         Fizzed bicarb in her bloodstream 
         Sucked bitterness alone


         Flooded home, battle surmounted 
         Safeguard marshy roost
         Maladvised maveric trudged pond
         Stacking bags of no use

        
         Swirling water swarmed by spiders
         Fear erased from register
         Starless, deserted street industrial 
         Duty lead dim endeavour 
         
     
         Depth defiantly rejected her efforts
         Scream's echoing ignorant
         Yelled "help" at selected emptiness 
         Six months pregnant Sigrid


         Fortfied ego, throat sore, exhausted 
         Dry in her fortress upstairs 
         Concede agitated bruises encumber
         Defences laid dull despairs 




          
                      31st March
          Dependence is not defeat

Premium Member Girl On the Moon

Fantasy sold on a 50’s bottle cap; 
a party-girl side-saddle sits
on a double-edged crescent moon
up high—a silver scythe in glamour-night-sky
corners of her cherry mouth tilted up
her left hand raises her glass  a toast to the stars
frothy head of champagne-beer flirts
with lips spooning the rim 

right hand holds the bottle instead of reality
look! no hands on a razor’s edge 
precarious  hilarious
a redhead with bouncy-curls and a flouncy-skirt  
boot-heels over head when she laughs and Oops! falls 
clouds catch her without friction and pillow her fiction head ~
        
but you—with wild escapade eyes—fell hard
far beyond Earth with not a soft cloud to cushion you

glam-allure  just a sexy lore  a filthy lure
but once you’ve been star-dusted and angel-dusted
it’s all the same…

vintage Miller bottle cap 
a perfect circle  like the fattened moon face
leering through broken windows
shards glitter the floor like fallen constellations

your black pearl eyes two muddy puddles
life drained through rows of tiny needle holes
slip-knot above your elbow just tight enough
your pulse beats its fist against the restraint
pounding—pounding—pounding 
impatient to be bled and fed

you and this dragon’s den a dilapidated pair
abandoned and without family
you share the blank stare of broken windows
veins collapsed like crumbled staircases
empty inside of empathy and dreams—
a junkie’s spot where shooting stars crash

embers in your bloodstream turn to dust
you cook in a rusted bottle cap by candlelight
candle’s glow your Sun in a dirty universe
you pull back on the syringe with your teeth
this house unused by the living—a cold corpse
but in the warm rush of your skin’s flush
your gaunt gray body melts like hot wax
pale horsehair walls  a slouchy silent witness 
... your soul escapes as it scrapes across the floor

flurries blow in through broken windows
whirl of wind whistles on its rounds like a jailhouse guard
rattling beam-bones  jangling ghost-bones—
user-litter scattered 
like broken-wish bones 

burnt fingertips and a "High Life" bottle cap 
   all that’s left

I Don'T Have a Heart Anymore

vessels became bridges
ending nowhere
only gap is left
creating a great blackness
where deluded bloodstream vanishes

I'm out of my heart

in this story where's no place
for dismembered soul of mine
saying I would flood over lines between your thoughts
you're carrying on to live in the world
of installed scenes

leaving me fixating pillows as  
substitute for embraces

Bring back that heart to me

you prefer lighter outputs
but no one recalls easier exits 
they are immemorable 
equalizing shades occurred in the desire to love and to be loved
somewhere along the way
we're regularly letting by that love
worth dying for

My heart needs me


Premium Member Constantly

The holoscopic image constructed 
appeared enormous and interrupted me; 
Constantly;

Traveling through the bloodstream 
it simply wanted to nourish
yet nothing positive could flourish 
save my terrified scream;

Anxious agenda always bustling,
I’m left begging for the solace of silence;
Constantly my thoughts are ransacked,
and slowly they eat away at me;

Burdened by the illusion of weight,
shoulders weary with the imaginary 
collapse;  The ironic contradiction? 
I know the power is in my hands;
Constantly;

It’s up to me, it’s always been up to me;
Hesitating and second guessing 
my own power and all .. that ..discipline;
But why? I know that it WILL work. 

Stopping.. Constantly;
Aspects of indecision 
flaunt a twice fractionated oblivion.

Premium Member It's Not Okay, But It's Okay

To be seemingly individually targeted 
By all the wrath and perverseness 
In this world
Personified by a heartless imbecile 
I know
I know
It’s not okay
But, I plead with you
Beseech you, implore you 
To allow
My arms and heart
And dozens of familiar more 
And a plethora of friends yet to meet
To envelop you in a celestial hug
And gently press 
The hope, virtue, and integrity 
Still in this world
Through your understandably hardened skin
And into your bloodstream 
To allow you to feel 
The integrity and veracity of my words
When I whisper 
It’s okay
It’s going to be okay

Premium Member Ninety Nine Shades of Blue Red Flames

Gliding hands dancing on your spine
Playing melodies in your hair
Soft kisses delights in making discoveries
I see your soul clearly

I seize your face gently reflections shine 
within the mind softly brushing 
deeply plays a tender loving tune 
fluttering beats touching shades of sunshine

All I need is my other senses to feel you
Sensitive sensations tantalizing inside
Blood pumping passion mysteries unraveling

rose of this soul softly whispers a jewel
in this deep nile let the stars be my guide 
sparkling brightly winking delight

Ripples in turquoise waters running deep
Transformation in the subaqueous light filtering through
Indulge in a colorful spectrum of joyous release

granting loves magic in a shower of confetti 
sparking magic granting wishes rising from the dust
lips the rose petals touching kisses softly 
warm enchanting dreams in your inner beauty

Come lay here by me
Gliding hands dancing on your chest
Playing melodies on your lips
Soft kisses delights in whispering echoes

true the wonders of this world 
whispering winds blowing sweetly calling your name 
ocean waves rising unfolds kisses paradise

You are a clear vision
All I need is heart and soul to understand you
Instinctive intensity penetrating inside
Firecrackers soaring passion tales unfolding

melting in the embers of your beauty 
sparks fly behind the mirror gems 
opening in the chambers a ball begins shimmering 
lighting up walls warmly in the four chambers
igniting sparks burning red flames join
silver dancing blue hotly holding beautiful
hands joined under magic spells loving like you do

Shimmers in moon rising and sun setting
Circulation in the bloodstream honey lemon love
Lingers in the aftertaste 
smoldering embers of blue red flames

The Soul of This Unordinary Man

The more you touch the soul
of this unordinary man,
still untouched by love,
the sooner I feel confident
to meet the shining eyes
of an uncommon,trustworthy friend;
and the more you give of yourself,
the quicker I'm motived by kindness
and willing to share those intimate moments
when a rainbow promises no rain...

Live inside my bloodstream,
to reach your way to a delightful dream;
touch me with confidence,I'll be
as gentle as the spring' breeze:
to strip our sad souls of all unneeded lies,
and love each other in this earthly Paradise!

The more you touch the soul
of this unordinary man,
the sooner I see a sky without clouds;
not relying on hopes and promises,
but to have the inner courage
to be in the middle of the stage...
where many are afraid to stand
and reveal everything to the silent world!

Let's bond our destinies,
and live a life without bounderies;
we trusted fate to show us
an easier way out :
with no worries,heartbreaks or tears,
but we've finally found out 
that we must learn to please,
and be satisfied with little joys!

The more you touch the soul,
of this unordinary man,
the faster I become whole;
I sought worthless fortunes
in the mist of aloness...
what would I have gained,
if I had blindly followed
the shadow of my own sadness?

Alcohol

All the dream lamps of the world have joined their rendezvous
In this porcelain time of the evening playing in my bloodstream
I am waiting when the river of nudity will bring about the coup
Filling the molecules of my embrace with the toxic moonbeam

My companion a scarlet wine merrily churning a crimson sea
Of all the soft snow the world can collect in my pulsating room
With the river wearing moon and stars in an embracing spree
Now I am prepared darling to raise poetry even from your womb

The alcohol first invites sweet clouds from its own peace and love
The clouds start doing embroidery on the dance of pink neuron
How smoothly poetic gladioli the moon weaves just look above
Sparkling lyrics look and wait in the silk skinned horses of Babylon

Love spreads around the wonderful hills like the hugging blue mist
Silkily numbing senses feel mom has returned from silky childhood
Not even a single jasmine on my wavy skin will now remain  unkissed
Electricity exchanging moments fill poetry in the bowls of rosewood 

Come darling fill unquenched glasses time is running out with moon
Let's drain last of the love dregs along with the kisses in each spoon
