Hidden Tears

Learn to cry 
with hidden tears
Be afraid 
and show no fear

Be wide awake
And pretend asleep
Scream in your head
Don't make a peep

Smile and laugh
Put on a show
Die inside
No one will know

Ode To Psycho

Your reasoning is childish and idiotic
Your behavior actually is defined as psychotic

How can you act with such a lack of understanding
This level of stupidity is hard to imagine

Believe me when I say it's true
It is not me
It's definitely you

Absence

Absence makes the heart grow fonder
Missing you for longer and longer

Deathly afraid my heart may burst
You may love me best...I love you worst

Caffeine-Free

The day is long
My attention's short
I've no energy to cavort

Business isn't done
I'm ready to quit
Time feels like a bottomless pit

I'm physically here
Mind - absentee
I shouldn't have drank the caffeine-free

Kitten Named Sue

There once was a kitten named Sue.
She found one mitten, or two.
She chewed all day long.
'Till all of it was gone.
Now she has nothing to do.

Super Snacker

I'm the best snacker there ever 
was
My hands fit chip bags like my 
hands fit my gloves
I've got Chex Mix, Cheese-It's, 
Pork-Rinds, Cheetos
Pretzels, Gardettos, dip and 
Doritos
I shovel it in morning, noon, 
and night
I don't stop to breath, oh what 
a sight
If you need snacking done, 
remember what they say
Go grab that girl who can really
pack it away!

Deceiving Rose

Destructive rose with your thorns
Elegance deserving to be forlorn
Stabbing those who hold you close
Deceiving those who love you most

Called by any other name, just as sweet?
How about betraying, beguiling, or disaster to complete

Lonely rose, receiving love
Yet only reciprocating with sharp pointed shove

Then someone reaches out
Reality piercingly clear
You're certainly lovely
But never loving, my dear

Chandelier

A chandelier hung frozen in time
Locked in a hazy Italian photograph
Memories spark and sizzle
But die out all too soon
In a grueling cycle of remembrance

Winter Wish

Dreary, freezing
Winter days
Stuck inside 
A gloomy haze

Nowhere to go 
Nothing to see
Just as bored 
As bored can be

Sitting still 
Is getting old
Would go outside
But it's too cold

Wish for summer
Spring or fall
Anything to 
Ease this lull

Origin and Meaning of Poetry

Where does my poetry come from?
Mostly my life.
Experiences as a child, a mother, a wife

If any poet tells you, their poems form from a random thought
Should you believe them?
Probably not 

The only thing that comes from nowhere, simply is nothing
All poems have a beginning, they all come from
Something 

Wherever they originate though, from them readers glean
Different life lessons 
as they discern what they do mean

And that is what's fantastic
Nothing is neater
That the meanings are different for each and every reader
