Water and Ocean

Sadness with no thought
as to how it came,
dream of just the other day
when it wasn't this way.

Crying with no tears
heart loving
without fear.

One two three
the seconds tick by
as I picture 
you by my side.

I smile
sad and sweet
at the same time
it must be.

The thought of you
makes me happy
but the reality
makes me blue.

Even as my head
is up in the clouds
another day ticks by.

You're still there
and I'm still here
forever that way
I think it will stay.

His Room My Prison

I saw the house,
bare bereft
only THAT room left.
Gone are my books
gone is my bed
but the rape stays the same.

All of the cruel games
I, unknowingly, played.
Younger siblings' and
friend's pleading eyes,
make him stop!

I'm so sorry
I can't help,
or else
it will only be me
instead of you.

Pink walls
where I drew in pencil
but the crimes cannot be erased.

Standing naked on display
no hair yet upon
my trembling body.
He's pointing out my personal anatomy
as if he's some teacher.
Please, just let them go!

After learning of Hitler
and the Jews, I drew their star
hoping he'd be tortured too.

Sixteen years later,
and still in my mind
that accursed room is always the same.

Tears of a Jem

Alone in the world
he makes his way
no one to show him
right from wrong.

Beaten and abused
he rises above
the ashes of the past
covered in bruises and blood.

Sobbing and heartbroke
he screams his pain
out to a god
his baby in hold

Wishing to change the past
praying for a new life
his little girl there remains
dead and cold

He vented his anger
and killed his little jewel
the gem of his eye

his pain 
now forever immortalized
in those diamond tears.

Dragon Boy

My world goes around
butterflies in my belly
thinking of you
smile upon my face

Head in the sky
heart in your hands
soul soaring high

Dreaming so big
wishing so much
smiling just because
I know you

Laughing for no more
reason than
I love talking to you

Blushing and giggling
because you make me
feel so young 
and shy again

smiling
thinking of you
laughing 
head in clouds
never wanting
it to end

Awaiting Completion

Communicating silence
louder than any word
more painful that any wound

Dreaming fantasies
never to become real
another scar that won't heal

Needing love
looking in all the wrong places
still my heart races

Seeing life
quickly passing me by
no matter how I try

Feeling him
wrapping arms tight
finally everything's alright

Experiencing life
without him here
remains still incomplete

To Contradict

Across land
across sea,
my heart seems to be.

Ignoring lies
ignoring truth,
thoughts turn to you.

Racing time
racing heart,
hoping to be a part.

Lights on
lights off,
thinking of you, not enough.

Heart open
heart closed,
him I want the most.

Residing Anger

Fury of the mind
happiness left behind
anger consuming.

Violence in mind,
smiles I can not find
hate resuming.

Thoughts racing
hopes erasing
hands still.

Sharp blade tracing
wrists, hesitating
living with no thrill.

Broken and tattered,
my heart is shattered
I cry and heave.

You always mattered
feelings scattered
please, don't leave.

Rocking back and forth,
my worth 
you didn't see,
this is the end of me.

Dream Lover

Beating drum resounding,
common thoughts confounding.
Emotions striped bare
confusion is there.

Feeling for him
whilst knowing,
this love may
not be worth showing.

Chances slim
yet hope begins.
Ignoring past,
heart beating fast.

Woefully smitten
by love
I was bitten.

Dreams of fantasy
hopes for ecstasy,
just wanting 
you next to me.

Night fades to day
and again
he vanishes away.

More Than Child's Play

Eyes of envy
jealous of my life
blind to tears I hide

Eyes seeing happiness
as I cuddle with him
camouflaging pain within

Eyes reading words
that I've typed
How I wished them right

Eyes un-believing
this you can't be seeing
my wrists still bleeding

Sitting in black
silence at a funeral
everyone looking back

Hard for you to imagine
the smiles, joy, and laughter
was my faked ever-after

No one's to blame
pretending
isn't just a child's game.

To Love Stupidly

Silent screams
stupid dreams
I knew not to 
fall for you.

I'm a wishful girl
in an unfair world,
in my fantasy
I wish to be.

For in reality
never will there be,
any true you and me.

Even though I know,
tears still flow,
down my cheeks 
to the floor.

I should dream
of you no more,
and yet I know
this feeling 
will not go.

Loving you
I knew better 
than to do.

It is to late
to turn back fate
I'm just a stupid girl
in a too big world.
