Too many people around, tired, frustrated, sitting to think. Damn!
Someone is coming out from the building. Hopes whoever it is does not...

This is a poem written by my mother, under her, "nom de plume", 
Genevieve St. Cyr.

The mechanical bird covered with diamonds, sings only 
waltzes until the insides give way, and the sound 
of his craft...

This has been one of the hardest years of my life,
Many losses took me to a lonely empty place.
Losses within my net family and my biological family.
Left me shaken, confused and feeling hollow.

It is late...

The constant ache throbs through my being,
Pain dragging me down into despair and depression.
Knowing there is a solution but being made to wait.
Impatience at a system that doesn't care that your in pain.

While waiting could...

Been pondering a year strewn with loss and pain,
Illnesses and breakdowns seemed to have control.
But then little things looked over, thinking again,

Never knowing how long is left.
Has enough been done thats right?
Has everything tried been done to the best?

Doubts and regrets sometimes cloud the vision.
Sometimes judgments given carry there weights.

So old the pages, fragile and worn,
Delicately I turn them, looking, wondering,
What was written on these pages before.
Some ones story, or just facts treasured.

Why did the words disappear, what happened?
The book was so carefully wrapped...

In dreams I return to a former time.
To a home long left behind,
To revisit the mountains beauty.

Bluffs covered with soft moss,
Woods where we often played.
Paths remembered for long walks.

Deer, moose, and bear could be seen,
In...

BELIEVE ME, I WOULDN'T LIE TO YOU.
I love you baby and you are soo beautiful.
I am soooo in love with you, I'd never do you wrong.

Verbal roses, meant to trick,
Verbal roses that truly stink.

BUTTONS, BUTTONS
 
Buttons , buttons everywhere, I just love buttons.
What's this, please don't push, but why?
I walk in circles desperate for the reason.
Curiosity has me begging to push the button.
Oh come on it can't be...

Loyal and blind, I believed in you.
A mother, even though not of birth.
Trusting your love and caring true.
I grieve as dead, feeling no worth.

Mourning with heavy heart and soul.
The clues of truth run through my...
