Long Buffering Poems

Just breath
Don't think about being judged, mad, angry or sad
The feeling of words and fear stuck in your throat
About to choke
Don't think about it
The pit in your stomach
Twisting and knotting
Sensitive and rotting
I can barely breath

It can give, but it too takes,
For every heart it lifts, it breaks!
If you feel it, then...

A still that's ever daunting

It's been tough and humbling
Just the truth, not a dark picture that I'm coloring
People coming up to me
With a look that is puzzling
Telling me how my words have been troubling

of blissfully naked self-revelation 
entirely safe. Fear and doubt have no meaning

My kissing with her
Had been put with a cease.

Walk, walk, walk
Each step taking its toll
I'm weary of hope
Setting a new image
To press me toward a goal

What is it all about

.....WHAT...my lord???

Isn't it enough
That I gave my...
