Regret
One voice dancing
Through darkness
Romancing the
Part
Of heart
That would
Sooner hide.
I died inside
The day he said
He chose a bed
Not mine to share.
I was not there
You see.
For me
It was not
Half the fun.
The only one
I wished for
Had been him.
My heart was
Wronged
For I belonged
To someone else
You see.
And thus
I raped my
Self
That night
Get Out!
My bed, my head
I bled. I said
My heart would not
Be taken by
The kind of guy
Who’d wring the life
From me once more.
No more…
Get out!
Get out!
I’d scream and shout
If I thought
You could hear me
Crying ever eastward
Against a gale
Not of my
Own making.
I’m breaking…
Breaking
Now forsaking
The forever part
Of foolish heart.
I’m on the floor
No more.
Romantic crimes
Don’t blur the lines
Of my body
Under shoe.
You need to stop
Before I drop
And never rise again.
Get out!
Get out!
Get out!
Plath-ism
Lay still.
Dead center
Flat floor.
Give the
Well meaning
Dog a bone
To satisfy
inquiring mind.
Floors of
Happiness.
13 above
And 3 below.
Breathe slow.
Throw away
6 red dead
Vows.
Head bows.
Curls in
Hands over
Ears and
Unchecked
Tears.
Stove left
On.
I do not care.
Nor did she
I think.
Heading Down?
I’m broken.
Spoken
my very last
sweet word.
I’ve heard
A broken heart
Feels like
The end of
being.
And now
I know
For sure.
The cure
Is lost.
And so
Am
I.
On Layaway
You know me
Own me
Throw me down
For simple pleasures sake.
My body aches
each time you
speak my name.
For I belong
to only you.
My pleasures too.
And I have
painted tales
inside my head
inside my bed
where you instead
of my right hand,
will take
make me
break me in.
Then we shall swim
In salted rain
Without refrain
That sweetest pain
I save for you.
Of Kings and Quiet Things
The midnight keeps Amor
Beyond my sweet caress
Let fragile hope endure
The trial that distance tests.
O, chains that bind the heart
Are strong and ever good
Injurious to be apart
Fidelities withstood
Perchance to dream of such a day
When we are breast to breast
And distance will but fall away
When we are nearly pressed.
I breath to hear his voice again
My Love of loves, and King of men.
xx
Forevermore
The voice returns
With warmth that burns
The flesh from bone.
My love, my own.
Sweet refuge, light
Eternal night
Of passion making
Heart breaking
Beautiful precious
Love.
The power of One
Undoes undone
Unspoken vow
You have me now
And I implore
Forevermore.
~xx~
Half Full?
Time….
Time…..
Type the word
The hundredth time…
Stop… don’t stop
Ticking clock….
Tickles time….
Droplets like
Epidemic tearfalls
Waterfalls of downfalls
And regret yet
We forget
It did not feel
Like a mistake
Back then my friend
When all I wanted
Was your lips
Your finger tips
Our joining hips.
Perhaps not
Even now.
Bury….
Bury…
See it scurry
Away like things
That you might kill
Scampering across
the uneven floor of
an ever
unquiet mind.
There are many
ways to
forget the past:
even more
to fill
an empty glass.
The Guerilla Poetess (c) 2009
Almas Perdidas
Curse the famished hungered part
That cannot live without the heart
That I have grown to love, my Love
My soul, my warmth, mi vida.
Remove the thought of compromise
Cut out the tear ducts from my eyes
That I have grown in love, my Love
My joy, my light, mi vida.
Pluck the petals from the bloom
Open me, and that right soon
Those parts that beg to love, my Love
My flesh, my wet, mi vida.
Strike me where I weakly stand
I beg thee for a stronger hand
That I may live to love, my Love
My breath, my pulse, mi vida. [fin]
Pertenezco sólo a usted Amor ~ xx ~
Merry Christmas Daddy!
My Father
Who Art in Florida
Hollow be thy game.
Thy Pension come
Thy will be done
Always at the expense of others.
Give us this day
Our deep regret
And forgive us our values
As we forgive those
Who operate
Without them.
And lead us not into trepidation
But deliver us from expectation.
Amen.
