The Narcissist and the Moon
Her mind is the remains of a diseased carcass
Jealous of even her own son and daughters
She goes by the title of mother 
Yet she abuses her kids like no other

Color Blind
Red, purple, blue, yellow, black, white, green,
So many colors around can be seen.

They shout and laugh everyday,
While I'm alone in every way.

Not one here who knows my name,
It's just words, nothing's the same.

she said I won't be a pretty poet

There are some things that I would say
to help you out along the way:

but let’s hold...

They say, “Young girl, don’t cry.
It’ll be ok if you just dry your eyes.
Write it down. Just let it out.

When Moses came back down
With his tablets and inscriptions
He left some lying around
With some critical prescriptions

Not to stop the count on fingers
If you want to go to heaven
Add these extra rules and stingers

Premium Member Tongue Tattle Tales
Hold your tongue, tie it up tight,
for a loose tongue that strays in devious ways,
can slip and cut deep, too quick, right to bone.
It wags the dog, flaying in many ways failing.

Telltale tongues come in...

A hue, a shade, just where I begin.

Yet my heart beats strong, vibrant, and keen.

Perhaps to make yourself look good though such tactics were undue?
Have you ever denied a thing that truth of fact you'd done,
Perhaps for self protection...

Wanting to shrug off this shell, break loose from me
Silence that damn hermit, hiccuping under his tree
Trapped inside too long, dormancy dreams to wake 
Disgorging bubbly lava, fills in soporific landscapes 

Longing to escape soft...

Promises, Promises...boldy broken
I spite these words when hastily spoken
The act pledged is almost never the issue

Alas, We Sit In Silence
Your silence nearly deafens me
Because I am not prepared
To sit and wonder quietly,
Uncertain and quite scared.

For scared is what I surely am.
I am scared to face the fact
That instead of saying something
You choose to not...
