Mute

Mute

She bit her tongue until it bled
Leaving countless things left unsaid
Her thoughts she kept well contained
In her mind, they long remained
Her words always got stuck in her throat
Her feelings, she could not emote
She would always choke them down
Until on them, she began to drown
They weighed heavy upon her chest
The air in her lungs felt compressed
Ever time she tried to speak
Her chords trembled and grew weak
She was tired of being mute
Her voice, she no longer wanted to dilute
She wanted her own words to pass her lips
No more reading someone else's scripts
Though her voice quivered and began to crack
She spoke her truth, there was no turning back

Too Many Chances

Sorry I have to walk away 
I have to leave; I can not stay
Don't want love to turn into hate 
I don't want that to be love's fate

Between us I must put some distance 
Even though my heart gives me resistance 
I know we need to be apart 
So I can keep love in my heart 

So before love turns into disdain 
I have to go; I can not remain 
Now I must leave you behind 
For my sanity and peace of mind 

I can not be here anymore 
Have to close this open door 
I can't give you the help you need 
So I must withdraw and recede 

To my loyalty I can not be a slave
Keep getting heartbroken by how you behave 
Too many chances I've given to you 
And so this goodbye is long overdo 

             -C.A.Saputo xoxo

I Want To - With You

I want to watch the sunset with you 
Gaze at the emerging moon of blue 
Lie under the sky filled with stars 
While we contemplate life on Mars 

I want to fall asleep with you in the grass 
While wishing on shooting stars that pass 
Wake up to the bright new sunrise 
Behold the radiance of dawn with our eyes 

I want to walk with you in a spring rain shower 
Cherish the moment for more than an hour 
Jump and splash in puddles left behind 
Smiles and laughter we will find 

I want to listen to the birds with you as they sing 
Enjoy the calm and serenity they bring 
Watch them flying in the trees 
Feeling the warm summer breeze 

I want to share with you the things that bring my heart delight 
From the sunrise in the morning to the moon and stars at night 
To sit with you and hold your hand 
While this love in my heart starts to expand 

            -C.A.Saputo xoxo

Love Sees With Eyes Wide Open

It is said that Love is blind 
But Love isn't,you will find 
It sees every imperfection and flaw 
And yet it still remains in such awe 

It doesn't demand change of who one is 
Love accepts all the qualities that are his 
Yet it will help a person to flourish and grow 
To find the person that Love already knows 

Love may witness missteps and mistakes 
Yet it will not abandon,leave,or forsake 
It sees mistakes as part of the Masterpiece 
That's why Love endures, it does not cease 

Love doesn't dwell on all the faults and wrongs 
It knows that is not where it's attention belongs 
Love sees with eyes wide open 
To say Love is blind,one is misspoken

Your Wings Brushed My Face

I felt your wings brush across my face 
When you took me into your loving embrace 
I sensed your compassion when you touched my hand 
My pain and sadness you truly did understand 

I saw the light of hope in your eyes
Because with me you did empathize 
Your voice was music to my ears
It relieved all my doubts and fears 

I found contentment and peace in your smile 
I knew I wasn't alone to walk this rough mile 
My heart was healed by your laughter 
I felt I would receive the solace I was after 

In you I've witnessed genuine love 
A prayer answered by God above
The moment your wings brushed my face 
All my concerns and worries were erased 

           -C.A.Saputo xoxo

Fragile Broken Wings

Forgive me if I've been a little distant 
To your invitations I've been resistant 
Just been in need of some solitude 
Had renew and adjust my attitude 

I had to do a little soul healing 
Come to terms with this sadness I'm feeling 
Had to remind myself it won't last for long
Sooner or later this hopelessness will be gone 

I needed to sort out a few things 
Had to tend to my fragile broken wings 
I just needed a little space 
So I could get back to my happy place 

It's not that I didn't really care 
And time with you I didn't want to share 
I just needed to be alone 
So plans with you I would postpone 

I needed to heal my heartsickness
So please give me your forgiveness 
Sorry I had to be reclusive 
But to my healing it was conducive 

     -C.A.Saputo  xoxo

When All the Colors Were Bright and Bold

Can we bring back the child like imagination 
When we saw the world with such fascination 
When all the colors were bright and bold 
Every little thing to us was gold 

When we looked at everything with awe and wonder
We thought God bowling was the sound of thunder 
When we still believed in fairytales 
That good over evil always prevails 

When we couldn't get enough of mom's butterfly kisses 
Before we gave up on our dreams and wishes 
When hugs from dad meant everything 
Comfort and security they would bring 

When we were able to speak our truth 
Having the frankness and innocence of youth 
When our love and affection was given so freely 
And saying I love you came so easy

        1 Corinthians 13:11

Be the Queen

She started with a quiet whisper in my ear
Telling me some things I needed to hear 
But her whisper soon turned into a shout 
"Hey girl let me your inner ***** out"

She said "Stop all the people pleasing 
End all that giving in and appeasing 
Quit being a doormat for people to wipe their feet 
Think of yourself and cease taking a backseat 

Girl you need to listen to me your inner voice 
Keep getting walked on or stand up;make a choice 
Being the pushover has to end 
There will always be someone you offend 

You have to stop playing the supporting role 
It's time for you to take back control 
You must begin to be true to yourself 
Quit putting your needs and wants on a shelf

Become concerned with your happiness and contentment 
Or you'll end up with bitterness and resentment 
It's your life to live and yours alone 
So start being the queen and sit on your throne"

Iron Clad Gate

When it comes to love some run hot and cold 
They never give love a chance to fully unfold 
Over and over again they've been a victim of rejection 
So they become afraid and sparse with their affection 

They tie their heart with an imaginary string 
So the can reel it in before they feel loves sting 
They erect a wall when they start to get close 
A barrier goes up so their true feelings they don't expose 

They wear this armor so their heart they can protect 
Because rejection is what they ultimately expect 
They're caught in a tug of war between head and heart 
Should they take a risk or not even start 

They push people away;make them feel ignored 
When they really just want to be loved and adored 
True love is what they are virtually after 
To live a life full of love,joy and laughter 

So subconsciously they test who is going to stay 
Weed out the ones who will just walk away 
They are looking for the one who will patiently wait 
To give them the key to the iron clad gate

A merica's favorite past-time being played 
S luggers hitting those home runs 
E ating hotdogs peanuts and crackerjack

L obbing strikes over home plate 
L ove to watch the Boys of Summer play the game

I ntertwining hearts with love and compassion 
E arning each other's loyalty and trust 
N ever turning your back when the other is in need 
D evoted and bonded to each other for life

Fireflies In Glass Jars

Remember going to grandpa and grandma's house by the lake 
All the fond memories there we did make 
And I think the fondest by far 
Was catching fireflies in a jar 

We would chase their light in the tall grass 
Trying to catch them in our jars of glass 
Seeing who could capture the most 
The winner got rights to brag and boast 

We were awed by their illuminating light
To watch them gave us pure delight 
In our jars we gazed at the fireflies glow
Until mom said okay sweeties time to let them go

At grandpa and grandma's we spent many summer nights and days 
And one fond memory always sets my heart ablaze 
All those fireflies glowing like little stars 
And us chasing and catching them in glass jar

Dear Empath

Dear Empath,   
         I'm drawn to your loving heart 
The kindness and care you impart 
You give me the attention that I crave 
So your tender heart I will enslave 
I use your care and sensitivity 
I feed on your vulnerable passivity 
I keep drinking from your soul's precious cup
Your life water keeps lifting me up 
Over you I will gain control 
Giver and Taker we play the roles 
My ego is fed when I put you down 
Selfishly I want to keep you around 
So with my words you I deceive 
Because I never want you to leave 
              Selfishly,
                        Narcissist 

      -C.A.Saputo  xoxo

Dear Narcissist

Dear Narcissist, 
            You draw me into your illusion 
Your tender kiss causes such confusion 
I feel your pain and want to lift you up
I let you drink from my soul's precious cup
Depleting my cup of my life water;you keep drinking 
Your self-esteem is expanding;while mine is shrinking 
Your emotions I absorb as mine 
Where do mine begin;I've blurred the line 
I plant the seed of your disrespect 
Give you all you need;what should I expect 
I have a need to heal and you for acceptance 
Thus leads to our unhealthy dependence 
This is how our relationship will be 
Until I from you I find a way to break free 
                         Loving,
                                   Empath

Comfort Zone

Gotta step out of your comfort zone 
You'll never know if you don't try 
Take a step into the great unknown 
Can't let an opportunity pass you by 

You'll never know if you don't try 
Start to think outside the box 
Can't let an opportunity pass you by 
Do something you find unorthodox 

Start to think outside the box 
Push the limits all the way 
Do something you find unorthodox 
To try but fail is okay 

Push the limits all the way 
Take a step into the great unknown 
To try but fail is okay 
Gotta step out of your comfort zone
