Michele Walker Poem
Cover my heart in rapid vines,
Safety pin it to my skin, and blot down the lines
The thorns don’t have edge like the needles and pins
I’ll be fine, at least for tonight
Shield out deceit, re-occurring lies
The truth bleeds out through the love we demise, sullen eyes
The lights aren’t so bright, yet the stars won’t lose its shine
I’ll be fine, at least for tonight
Protect which that is left, in my soul
Keep me blind, hold my hands back towards an open sky
Protect the barrier that keeps us aside
I’ll be fine, at least for tonight
Bury a voice that left unspoken
Face the fears embedded in visions unbroken
Carry tides of promises you won’t abide
You’ll be fine, at least for tonight
Stretch open the seal that binds our tide
The red will not fade no matter how hard you grind
Into the earth you unturned, crystals divine
You’ll be fine, at least for tonight
Lips red deep, yet the smile has grown a shade darker
Sitting so still, our minds couldn’t be much farther
I’ll walk away and be able to say I’m fine
We will be fine, at least for tonight.

Michele Walker Poem
Why do we all affect ourselves with this tainted feeling…of love?
How can a feeling for one person, tear us apart inside…our soul?
We talk about how love gives us wings, and we soar…up above
Or if we hurt, we fall, we die, our life is meaningless no… control
We write, we sing, an outlet love may bring good… or bad
It seems to affect us everywhere we go…or stay
And those who’ve never experienced it get lonely…or mad
Couples everywhere sometimes we’d wish they’d just go… away
We see it all around us, tv, movies, the radio, in front…of us
I get sick every time I think about it…or don’t
I read horoscopes in what the year…may bring
Then I say to myself, don’t let it bother me…I won’t
Sometimes it just seems so real I can’t help but…daydream
We wish upon stars, we pray every night…God please
Let me love someone and they just love me…right back
I don’t think it’s too much to ask why can’t it…be me?
We think is there something wrong here, something I …may lack?
All I know for sure, is that it impacts us all…around
And those who have it and those that don’t…we’ll see
It just seems so cruel sometimes, we can’t…break down
That this feeling inside of us will never…set free
It’s almost a haunting feeling that won’t ever go… away
This tainted feeling that surrounds us…called love

Michele Walker Poem
She waits for the time when she can say that this could the right one
Each star that shines it burns her eyes but she continues to wish upon
The only means, of what she dreams is so that one day she won’t pretend
She let fears fly, as time collides with what she hopes will be right
What makes it that we fear things that we just don’t know
If something kills us inside how can we stop our selves from that terror mode
Have faith and trust and that the ones you love will have love for you no matter what
They are the wings that lift us up-a powerful hold that won’t let us give up-give up on anything…

Michele Walker Poem
If love could succumb all that is lost
Sometimes I forget to breathe
My eyes sting because I’m staring too hard to see
I forget to blink
My hands tremble and yet I’m not focused on one thing I just stare
Why am I so nervous for today? Life happens right? Nothing new in my schedule of what to do
And then far in the distance as my mind can go it brings me back to you
You’re just an image in my mind but it calms me down and nothing is in my way of view
My heart’s running in a marathon and just the slightest touch
Breaks all the thrill
Just stand there in no movement because alone looks can kill
Forget what you know and what you’ve heard from them outside
Some of them have touched and felt all but the deepest of my insides

Michele Walker Poem
When it’s too hot to keep the covers on, that’s when it’s going to be a good day
I roll over to see if you’re awake, and then realized you were holding me in my dreams
Damn for me
Your touch felt so real, I can remember the scent and what you tasted like
It’s been so long since I’ve been touched by someone else, I almost feel ashamed
We were floating in a lagoon, somewhere in a jungle, it was serene and secluded
You with the paddles, I had no idea where we were going, but I knew I was safe
Suddenly we’re in an airport, you were pulling me on a luggage cart
It was fun and it felt so free, no one in the world was able to bother me
You hugged my side and we walked together, down an open road where the door held light
I didn’t even know who you were but for some reason it just felt right
A mysterious face and mysterious places, I know I’m just longing for a love
