Emotional Bruise

Emotionally pinched
bruises the mind
blinds the eye from seeing
internal scars still bleeding
denial of the worst kind
feelings left behind
alone and distraught
in shadows of black and gray
surrounded by emptiness
.
Heart in shreds
gloom and dread
torn apart thoughts
doors of communication closed
beyond reach in saving
numb in soul
crying inside for help
prisoner of pain and hurt
trapped in confinement
of misery.

Seasons Change

Whispers in the wind
travels a great distance
to be heard and understood
without rhyme or reason
throughout every season
changes appear growing
in many directions
with new voices speaking the way
through stormy weather
the planet shifts in evolution
on sacred ground
deep freezes cracking the surface
shattering beneath reflected light
heating bright forming crystals
through the night
snowballing affects earth and sun
whispering in the wind of misunderstood.

Internal Connection

Peace
Quiet reflection
Internal connection
External reaction
Time for visual extraction
Wisdom from the pearl
Of harmonious being
Searching and seeking
For the truth of life's meaning

Bright colors of the aura
Shine through the soul
Rainbows on the heart
Beaming spirit
Senses are awakened
Lost souls foresaken
Looking for past loves
To release the pain from before
Deep memories to explore
Internal calm
Path to harmony and joy
For now and tomorrow
Peace quietly reflects
The spiritual storm
Inner Connection
No longer torn

Melting Away

Walking through life with chipped shoulders
weighing you down to the ground,
burdening the mind with stress and woe
numbing thought crippling the body,
with aching pain in soul releasing suffocation
from feeling trapped under cold ice,
buried alive with indecision.

Struggling to move forward from years of baggage,
stored in worry and doubt surrendering 
to light energy flow
liberating spirit with fluid motion
envisioning solutions in the end,
catching glimpses of the sun smiling upon you
warming your frozen heart,
thawing out the sadness from your long journey home
contemplating gratitude visualizing well being,
healing sorrows melting them away.

Losing You

Liquid tears
fallen rain
down my face
emotional droplets
caressing skin
bittersweet hearts
cracked in half
drowning passions
in a sea of blue
floating away
stranded feelings
oceans streaming
soaking sand
dissolving dreams
crushing hope
into pieces
of losing you.

Toxic Waste

Toxic waste
verbal hate
put down artists
blank slate
hurting people
quick judgments
without any proof
prey on the weak
pushing buttons
emotional destruction
gutted reactions
spewing in anger
utter disgrace in your face
with great distaste of soured grapes
sharpened tongues
sarcastic wit
snide remarks cutting through
sensitive skin scarring insides
bitterness consumed without remorse
aggressive force to feel superior
collecting victims along the way
without humiliation.

Toxic waste
dumping garbage
smelling vile speaking bile
rotting away from the inside
empty cores of spite lacking emotion
killing spirits to settle scores
without any winners internal sores.

Leukemia

Feeding
Operations
Spinal taps
Bone marrows
Saving lives
Parents crying
Children dying
Clinging to life
On a hope
Wishful thinking
Prolonged results
Death is eminent
Praying in pause
Attached to machines
To stay alive
Battling for time
Gasping for breath
Inhaling oxygen
Keeping you stable
With positive thinking
To ease the pain
Only for so long
Until it strikes back again
Fighting to survive
Through another day
Never giving up
To the last moment
Exhausting all possibilities
Before letting go
Of a sad fate
Illness in remission
Or way to late

Psychotic Episode

I talk to myself in many voices
Having conversations with myself
Answering my own questions
Thinking it is something else
The mind can play tricks
If you let it

It can convince you of anything
The conscious and subconscious mind
At times feels separate
From each other
Not connecting as well as it could be
A detachment from the brain
Lost in translations
Of many conversations
To feel safe and calm
Within oneself

The fear of losing yourself
When no one hears or believes you
Feelings and thoughts
Put on a dusty shelf
Not everything is clear
But I am totally aware
Of what is going on
Many layers of words
Coming out of nowhere
Can scare the mind into submission

Eating pieces away of your soul
Losing control
Feeling all alone
In your psychotic turmoil
Who will be there in the end
If I go numb and cannot see
Love me as I am
Or set me free to be me

Authentic Self

Mirrored intentions
reflected projection
generators of energy
manifests creativity
true faces shown
beyond masked pretension
hidden behind walls
of self protection
honest communication
brings inner elation
freedom to be
who you are naturally
stripped naked to the core
exposed for all to see
strength and vulnerability
emotional bonds connected
relationships affected
personal truths rejected
expressing true interests
in depth exchanges
love and respect
for family and friends
remembering yourself
without neglect
inner light shines through
drawing positive people to you
listening to what is being said
with an open heart and mind
responding with feeling
reflected in meaning
energy currents of mutual flow
from one another authentic in soul.

Positive Thoughts

Positive thoughts
Mind over matter
Energy no longer scattered
Laws of attraction
Vibrational satisfaction
In every direction
Life destination
Preserves self expression
On the path of inspiration
Uplifts spiritual enlightenment
With magnetic reflection
Mirrored in joy
