A Dark Dialogue Pt3 of 3pts

I. a dark awakening

Shuddering awake feeling the freezing cold fingers still around my throat, struggling to catch my breath struggling to focus.

Finding my air. Shaking myself awake, shaking fragments of dreams from my mind, imagery...

I Guess So

When we were young,
I held my long tongue
Foolishly sheepish 
Life is a sea full of fish

Good times spent with you mindlessly 
Boy, I don't feel guilty for being your minion of troublesome crime...spent so playfully...

A Winter Dream

On a cold winter’s night
We sit close together
By a fire, warm and snug
Almost sleeping, certainly dreaming

A hand-knit blanket is over us
It keeps us warm
As we watch the snow fall
On the back patio of our home

We...

King's Mountain, Part I

It was after the defeat at Camden,
in the fall of 1780,
British Major Patrick Ferguson
sought to exploit Britain’s victory.

To secure South Carolina’s countryside,
he marched his loyalist forces forward,
threatened the men beyond Appalachia,
said he would lay waste...

You left me without a reason why
You said you loved me, it was a lie
Now I sit in the dark and just cry
Folk notice my demeanor and pry
I shut them out tell the goodbye

Change

change is a challenging chore
I'm seeking for God's light to dawn upon me

What if,
my sister Suzanne had not died on that snowy winter day

Nobody Knows

Nobody knows how life will play out-
the steps of a journey marching through each scene,
for futurity is sightless, only the beginning has eyes.

Nobody knows the number of heartbeats...
no artist, craftsman, designer, seascapist,
no orchestrator or sculptor-...

Unintended Beauty

 Unintended beauty

I was not meant to be beautiful
So when I cut my hair 
To sculpt my face perfectly
I forget...
When I slip-on that satin lingerie 
Or drape yards of chiffon around me
Ensuring the fabric hugs...

A basement window I peered through covered with packed snow.
My mind wandered to the fridge where a carton of milk

Us Girls Live in a Fantasy

Waist not an outfit, Barbie with her slip-on shoes,
fairy-belts; plush hair, sometimes in ponytails.

Forget-me-not her impossible figure. Why do some
suppose that Barbie should be fat or ostracised?

So what we dream in fairytales! So what, feminity

Forever, Love!

I will love you, beloved, forever, though fish to your sea,
where my poetry’s bones may be sand on a beach (waves divine
