Unopened
My grief sits unopened In a box with the rest of my childhood things And every time I pull at the yellow satin strings I'm reminded of why my grief sits unopened I cannot explain why I wash away the weights in the palms of my empty hands Or why the clear water sinks down the drain, swirling along with...

Unopened Window
~ I stood at the unopened window, watching it rain from the sky Complaining inside of a future that seems to be passing me by Regrets flooding every emotion, moments no longer appear Searching for hope in the downpour, since you are no longer here Wrapped up in clouded decisions, feeling the glass wet and cold Dreaming of reasons I love you, swallowing words now untold Hoping for...

Premium Member She Is My Unopened Book
When first I peered deep into her eyes, My heart was completely besieged, By her colour, her trance, her all in between, Her book I would happily read, So I steadied my ship, parked on a seat, And looked at all that I liked, And gazed at each little feeling of free, Yet her book stayed closed through...

The Unopened Gift
He walked upon her in the woods Lying there, with placenta and blood on her skin He didn't question where she was going But knew where she had been ~unwanted, unloved, unnoticed~ He cleaned her carefully Removed the dead weight and stains of sorrow and grief He dressed her in royal gowns Daily changing her value and belief ~desired, delightful, distinct~ When she was grown...

Unopened Fortune Cookie
Because she likes mystery and wants to imagine her own story before the world rudely interrupts And as the cookie crumbles the world rumbles its forceful future among her frail dreams So she leaves everything as is so her dreams are able to live The mind is only as strong as the cracks from time p.s. so crack the...

Unopened Doors
You made the wrong choice first Please tell me how it got worst. Where did this all go wrong? I was once so strong. One day I was up then I fell. Everything turned into a living hell. I didn't know how to be strong anymore. I'm tired of only getting a closed door. I don't need a special token To live out in...

Premium Member The Unopened Letter
The letter stays sealed within the envelope unread and faded  Bringing neither hope, nor memories blurred or jaded  The day it came I could not know Which destiny the words would hold. Out of fear I refused to break the seal In hopes that neither fate was real Thinking only of the I in me Believing not that Love could ever be  Nor...

Unopened
I would open my dress, And let you have the woman of me. I would open my chest, And let you have the heart of me. I would open my wounds, And let you see the pain in me. I would open my eyes, And let you see the soul of me. I would open my arms, And let you have the warmth of...

Unopened Tears
I can see That you have hid them with guile Placed them behind A pasted on smile Somewhere down deep inside all the while You’ve locked them away with a key Hoping some day They will set themselves free I can see Locked far deep inside Within the far corners Of both of your eyes...

Shallow Unopened Grave
Shallow unopened grave Rotten earth If opened a terrifying curse Behold I discover A shallow open grave Laid a dead man With blood Dripping from his brain He spoke A breath first Then he said You fool ‘’A Curse Curse’’ Blood just drooled I felted the same But I should be scared A dead man curse I don’t believe If this is true A flow of blood...
