Importance

I had something to say

I put it away

Tucked it down

Forgot it went away

 

I had something to share

If only I could bear

Do not interfere

Facing my fear

 

I have to listen

More important than to glisten

A form of Zen

Worth more than yen

 

People need to feel

More important than an ell

Do things for thrill

Can I help you heal?

Ravenous Scorpions

Pain lingers down the hall

An empty ghost, BOO!

Nasty yellow teeth

Shining on an otherwise pleasant day

Needing to hide

A vacant dark corner

Conceal me from the fear

Needs, demands, objects

A place to rest

Granite bed warm to the touch

Hard on the back

Wake up don't vomit

Oh Goblin king

You do have power over me

Your chains heavy

I am bruised from the thrashing

This episode is

Neither pleasant nor pleasurable

Clear out the cobwebs!

Poison injected from fangs

The spider bites hard

Soothing the scar

Will this burn

Ever heal?

                                                                                                    

I would hide in the desert

Only to have the scorpions

That slumber under skin

Claw their way out

Eat through my eyes

To live another day

Mirror

I look in the mirror

What do I see?
Some strange human being

Looking back at me

I look in the mirror
 And to my surprise

 This face of mine

 Is withering

 With time

I look in the mirror
 Who is this strange creature?

 Looking back at me

Same old brown eyes

A balding head

Hopes and dreams that need fed

Some personality that I dread

The sparkle of life in his eyes

His life is passing him bye

So much he wants to share

If only he could bear

The fear that shakes him

His soul is out there

Full of Fear

I am dead

Smothered with a pillow

My own person

Being destroyed

I want to shout

To the world

I want to stand

At the edge of a cliff

And just

Shout

YES!!!

To Life

I want to allow

Ecstasy and joy

To over take

My human limitations

I want to sit

 With delight

And consent to it

To over take me

But

There are too many

Buts

But

I am human

And

I am

Full of fear
