Frightened Spirit

As I sit in the basement in the dark,
you come.
I see you in all the light and I look away,
but you
take me and I look into your eyes and see your mystical purpose.
I look at you in all the divine splendor and cry.
As I reach for you,
standing slowly,
you disappear and all is gone.
The darkness consumes.
Because you are nothing more than a dream.
You are not there.
As I fall to my knees weeping
I hear footsteps going up the steps.
I see you turn back,
and look at me with your twisted smile,
then leave.
And all is silent.
All is as it should be.
My eyes are open now, I see the world.



Frightened by You

Frightened in writing,
Please don't hurt me.
Frightened by life,
I am slipping.
Falling, falling down the pit.
Taking you with me.......and I cry.
You grab me and tell me your there,
but I go on falling.
I kick you off,
and I cry.
Please don't let me die.
And as I'm falling,
I look down.
I fall, fall into nothing.
I reach up and yell,"PLEASE SAVE ME", but your no longer there.



Disappearing Beauty

My mind is gone;
Your terrible act is done,
hurting me so.
Please just leave me alone!!!!!
All these people pulling for my time,
all just waiting to destroy my mind.
Make me what I'm not today,
I will come back,
I will find a way
I can't do it all for you so leave me alone!!!!
As I sit in the dark corner crying,
a shaft of light falls on me.
I light fills my emptiness,
and I see you....and I feel calm
I see your divine figure next to me,
looking on you comfort me
but a shroud of darkness fell on her...
and she was gone!!!
and I am once again left alone.
My mind and body long for you;
I'm on fire after you.
I looked up crying,
and I saw you in a vail of moonlight
and I reached out for you
take me please
take me please
but you left,
and I was left in total darkness.



Stead Fast Leap

I look into the pit of fire;
I watch the flames churn-the souls twisted in agony
Then I hear the pain of you,
As I turn all the pain comes onto me,
I see you and look back.

I see a blackened, scorched earth;
I look back to the pit in awe,
I fall on my knees crying,
you have walked away,
leaving me your pain,

I look into the firey pit,
and fall in



Frightened in Darkness

Frightened in writing
Please don't hurt me
Frighten by life
I am slipping
Falling
Falling
Into the pit of despair
You grab me and I see you there
Taking you with me I cry
Falling
Falling
Into the pit of despair
I keep on falling with you by my side
Your hand taking mine
Falling
Falling
Into the pit of despair
I look down at the hole
and I see nothing
Falling
Falling
Into the pit of despair
I feel you let go and I look up
I call to you
save me, stop this falling

make me whole once again



Deeper Cut

I look at the knife that was sticking in me;
and wouldn't you know what was expected to see
a tunnel of darkness consuming me
but I was surprised......

there was nothing.

I saw a figure standing at the door
I just watch from my spot on the floor
as you sighed and looked at my wounds
all because you know.....

I would do it again.
