Pretty In Pink

Pretty in Pink

Far more pretty than anything
i have ever seen before nor since

Read or wrote about or underscored

You are the flaming grass of winter

Blowing across my neighbors lane

That never feels the same

To either you nor i

When looking up at cloud formation

Wishing we we're dreaming

Of nothing and eveything forgotten

That brought us to this point

Because far to scared to face our future

We we're far more scared to confront our past

For fear of colliding on the marmalade sawdust underneath
the Circus Master's Organ

Scared to death of Mother scowling

And whether she would tell Dad
if in fact you had been good or bad

These are the bygone day's 

Of a pretty young girl dressed in pink

Dreaming of a white wedding


Bullet To The Head

What if I told you a true story, back when I was but a child,
oh how my dreams, were terrifying and wild,
 When I was five, monsters attacked me in my sleep,
with my pillow as my weapon, my soul to keep.
 I never knew, who won, or lost,
but I was the one, to pay the cost.
 I’d knock the coffee pot over, water spill out,
all over the counter, without a doubt.
 I’d knock dishes down, into the sink,
someone would hear, wouldn’t you think.
 I, in the middle of it, did not hear,
the only thing I knew, was my fear.
 On with the battle, as it did rage,
I was scared to death, at my age.
 I took beatings from my step dad, you see,
a few times, he even tried to kill me.
 Twice with a gun, through a wall, separate times,
by the Grace of God, do I write my rhymes.
 I was seven came home from school,
ask my mom if I change room will it be cool.
 I moved my bunk down just a bit,
just enough to make the dresser fit.
 That night through the wall, a bullet found it’s way,
had I not moved my bunk, I’d be dead today.
 Where the bullet came through was at my head,
I had moved my bunk instead.
 The way God moves us, to protect us you see,
ain’t that what a Father’s is supposed to be!

One More Love Try

Shaky hands, trembling heart
Since the day that cupid shot
An arrow in my direction
Making me catch your attention
Walking over cautiously
Not knowing where this will leAD
I've been burned and hurt before
Slowly shutting my hearts door
To protect it from the pain
That might leak in once again
If I'm falling way to fast
With a love that doesn't last
As I am holding my breath
I am very scared to death
To start something really new
I can't stop thinking of you
A chance I'm willing to take
Praying that my heart wont break
If I give it one more try
There is a look in your eyes
Shining with sincerity
Maybe I can finally be
With someone who will not run
Maybe loneliness is done

A Secret Hell

a little girl should never know 
the pain and sorrow that would grow 
inside her fragile heart and mind 
but it happens all the time 
when shes put in a situation 
by her brothers molestation 
at first she doesn't realize 
this kind of love is only lies 
that can hurt her easily 
both physically and mentally 
so she doesn't say a word 
and lets him do his very worst 
praying that tonight it's over 
ending her nightmare and torture 
the hellish nights are now much longer 
as her brothers getting stronger 
and she's only getting weaker 
with every minute that he keeps her 
scared to death never to tell 
about this secret life of hell

First Time Jitters

It's so quiet all around
There is not one single sound
In this room that we're both in
Scared to death how to begin
This new chapter as they grow
Finding a way they can show
How much they mean to each other
As they take it one step further
Slowly they start to undress
As they both feel the stress
Of the actions to occur
He gently lays a hand on her
Helping her lean on the bed
Many thoughts fill up their head
Soon they are nude and so frightened
But somehow are so enlightened
By the feeling from within
As they touch each others skin
Warm and soft and close together
This is something they will never
Forget as they gently make
Love that is going to take
Them on a journey to descend
Them into lovers, not just friends
They fall asleep so close and tight
Two hot bodies in the night
Wake up in each others arms
No longer scared but very calm
Realizing they just grew
An experience helped take them to
Adulthood through this miracle occurrence
Both their eyes show an assurance
It was the right time and place
As a smile lights their face

Try Again

 There at first and almost lost forever
Months go by in our quiet endeavor

Generally independent, insignificant, and alone
Until you walked into my life and a star shone

Deep thoughts and conversations we spoke
Now feelings arising impatient to invoke

Act now before you lose her forever!
I couldn't ever forgive myself --- never!

Holding you close in the warm rain
Emotions exploding like a turbo freight train

Hands gripped around your waist I stand proud
Body beautifully shaped and chest very well-endowed 

Want to try everything intimate with you
But wonder if you believe that it is true?

Kissing your sweet full lips against mine
Wondering when we'll find the time

Wondering if you feel just as true?
And wondering if you want to start anew?

Yearning for the first day you'll be naked by my side
And within your heart, body, and soul I will confide

Sharing the thoughts and saying those words
Flooded emotion washing through my nerves

I want to be with you and try again
But scared to death that I will not win...

Demon Spawn

You heard about the son of God
Here's a story about the Devil's lot
He spawned three males too
Dont judge before you hear the truth
These lads were innocent as a new born
So Lucifer was not happy with his spawn 
He called them gargoyles and banished them from hell
I found them sat by the wishing well
They all looked cold and scared to death
So i took them home and nursed them to health
They were funny looking creatures with wings
Short, plump with horns, cute and scary looking
The first was named Friluce, he was blind
The second was a deaf little swine
Goes by the name of Reficul, a funny little one
The third poor little devil Ecrulif was speachless dumb
They dedicated their life to protecting my famiy
From evil forces we cannot see
Witch made old Lucifer more crazy
To see his spawn as innocent and free
So thats the story of the devil's three lads
See no evil, hear no evil, speak no evil conquers the bad

Premium Member Night Creatures

My husband and I are well-loved and visited by night creatures. There were once seventeen raccoons on our deck, fighting over six boxes of stale crackers I had poured out to see what would come out. It was fun for me watching them slap and screech at each other when they thought someone was eating more than their share. 

A white-faced opossum used to come to our porch every night to eat hard crunchy cat food.  We saw one dead in the street on a bleak autumn day, and both of us expressed worry that it might be our opossum. I think it was.  

We have a new smaller grayish opossum now, that creeps up to our porch every night around seven o’clock.  It is an ugly mutt, much smaller than the pretty one, with that ugly gnarly pink rat tail, but she waddles up, next to the cat, who welcomes her. I hide in the house, watching her, pleased.  Sometimes the dog gets hysterical and barks madly about it, but she stays inside next to me, safe, scared to death of night creatures that fascinate me.

Premium Member Winter Is

Winter is like a refrigerator gone haywire
Which arrives on the heels
of an Abominable Snowman 
The display blinking as ice crystals
Showing off her freezing prowess
Scaring the timid into calling in sick
Terrified of black ice or their insurance rates rising
When they slide into a semi on their way to work.

Winter is softened a bit by Kwanza, Hanukah and Christmas
But only a tiny bit, for we are still leery 
of getting frostbitten toes 
if we get locked out 
and we are scared to death there might not be a Santa Claus
or that we were bad enough to get only coal this year.
Winter makes me smile 
as her ice cubes drop with loud angry cracking sounds
as we scrape off our windshields.

Opposite Love From a Friend

I always see the desperation
And all lose of concentration
Whenever she is around
You can't speak or make a sound
She takes away your heart and breath
You get numb and scared to death
Wishing you were strong to tell
This devil she if full of hell
Making your life a hot mess
Leaving you in such distress
There is no way you could see
Past all the pain and misery
That I want to rescue you
From the hold she's got on you
Pulling you into a world
Everyday this loving girl
Will erase the bad love scenes
Replacing them with more serene
Memories you can enjoy
I will not be shy or coy
Making you sure and aware
There's no need to fret or fear
My love will never be cruel
Leaving you a battered fool
Like she made you long ago
Taking away your inner glow
That I want to resurrect
Assuring this love is perfect
For your heart to beat once more
As each minute I restore
Your faith that happiness exists
Giving your world what's been missed
