Skin

I almost felt you
for a minute
Before the rush hit me full force
and your face became blurry
and all the aches in my heart decided
to quiet down

Beg the Stars a Miracle

wishes,
              suddenly quiet down ...
               love,
               fades ...
               plead inspiring dreams 
               to stars ...!

Through My Window

As the falling rain trickles on window
The sound had come back again
In this quiet down room

A canvass created through my window
Tracing heart with my finger
Slowly fades away

Premium Member Come Home

So, you are in jail,
no, I will not pay your bail.
Your mental illness 
made me the villainess 
in your life.

You ran away,
refused to stay
when I said your delusions
would follow like lumens
in your mind.

My hope is now you're confined
the voices in your mind
will quiet down,
perhaps will drown,
and allow you to come home.

Lullaby

Softly sing to me 
Soothingly I'll leave 
I'll look at your reflection 
But quiet down 
I won't return 
So don't look

I'll leave you be 
I'll leave you soon 
But softly sing to me 
A quiet sweet lullaby 

Softly speak
Don't yell 
Quiet down
I'll whisper 

Soothingly I'll leave 
But promise I won't
Promises never 
Same as you...

...Or Somebody's Gong To Get Hurt.

i worry for you.
beneath my skin.
where you cant feel 
and i cant hear.
 
your canal my ear.
speak louder
hear less.
quiet down.
 
my broken english 
means 
 
::unimportant arrangements::
 
for you..
and nothing more
i'm nothing more.
 
some sick excuse 
stuck between your teeth
with all the unracked guilt
left over from your...
 
care.

my love.

The Vampire Ix: the Fix

This cold steel
Tastes like caramel
My Saviour
Oh my saint

This bullet  
Is my caravel
For this trip  
I cannot wait

This wholly
Unholy suture
For my deepest
Darkest pain

Is a beautiful
Lack of future
To quiet down
My mental rain

Vainly I hunted
For the devil
For the man
Who ruined my life

Now accomplished, I sit
With this gun in my mouth
The hunt’s over
The devil is I

Premium Member Road Trip

R olling down the freeway, for hours and hours on end
O n our much anticipated family vacation,
A ll us kids were joking, yakking, singing songs and snacking,
D azzled by scenic routes and filled with youthful elation.

T old by Dad to quiet down, we simply couldn’t do it.
R eally, what did he expect eight rowdy kids to do?
I nside that station wagon we were squeezed in like sardines.
P aradise at last arrived: to the restrooms we all flew!

Premium Member Loud and Proud T

T almost always comes in loud and proud
One of five loud and proud boys at his house
I ask him to quiet down twice.
Then I move to his lunch table.
One of his seat mates protests….
by pointing out another boy at the next table who is loud.
I say “Louder than this child?” The mate glares and nods.
I ask T, “Do you think he is louder than you?”
T spits out his milk. He cannot quit smiling.
I get up to leave when it gets quiet.
Mr. Loud and Proud protests, begging me to stay.
