Anxiety Attack

It’s so soft and sad, this quiet inner crumpling Shaky foundations crumbling Pent up emotion stumbling flowing upward, outward, heart thumping Breaths turn into gasps Gasps turn into sobs Eyes burn with tears Throat rasps Time stops Head pounding with dark thoughts Stomach turning itself in knots No room for logic when it’s fear calling … Continue reading Anxiety Attack →

A Self-Aware Poem

I am, as the cliche goes, a mess of contradictions. Conflicting depictions of self fighting to emerge (None with conviction.) I am, as the cliche goes, unsure of who I am, really. Never sure what thoughts are my own, never certain of what I’m feeling. These trite words are all I have. None of which … Continue reading A Self-Aware Poem →

Ira

Robert Frost wrote, “Some say the world will end in fire, Some say in ice.” Anger is both. It is all-consuming And my mouth tastes sulfur And my throat feels charred Witches would cower at my insides if they saw (And Hades would feel at home) Then, silence reigns Screams are hushed down to nothing … Continue reading Ira →

Words Are Useless

I dreamt of words that free and that bind Of words from heart and words from mind Words so cruel, words so kind Words that reveal, words that blind I dreamt of words bitter and sweet Of words that fool and words that teach Words better read, words made for speech Words of small consequence, … Continue reading Words Are Useless →

Take me with you

Taut, 
are the strings that bind us 
knit so close yet stretched so far apart; tapestry 
extending across oceans. Deserts. Merciless, this distance etched into the fabrics of our hearts and throbbing painfully Where are you going? Where are you now? I miss you. Stitch yourself closer? Or, travel if you must, but do not … Continue reading Take me with you →

Crash and Burn

Carve out my insides and leave me bare for the vultures to consume Let them claw, rip, peck and tear until there’s nothing left to exhume Crush my bones beneath your heels till I am but a pile of dust This movie’s over, end of the reel I surrender myself to the Reaper’s trust My … Continue reading Crash and Burn →

Psychotic

Watch yourself. Be careful now. The anger’s building up again...You can’t see it yet I fear,but the beast is rising from its denand this pen will become my sharp weaponBut forget writing curses, I’ll draw blood,then drag you rough across the mud,my face expressionless, eyes cold as iceIf you don’t heed my warning, pay the … Continue reading Psychotic →
