Frozen Heart

Pour your warm honey
Over my frozen heart
Open it up
Tear it apart
See the inside
The part I
Can't deny
Take your time
But hurry up
I'm all frozen up
And I need
Your sweet honey
To feel the warm thaw
I want to feel your all.

Green, Green Grass

Planting footsteps
Planting dreams
With every footstep
Toes imprinted in soil
Watching the green sprout up
Behind me
If I look back
It's to see the
Green, green grass
Where once there was
Dry soil

Soft Linen

Lay me down
On soft linen
Kiss my forehead
Tell me goodnight
That everything
Will be all right

If You Ever..

If you ever sleep
and sometimes I wonder
if you do
If you ever do
I want to be the one
To watch you

You're Worth the Wait

***************
You're worth it
You always were
***************

Promises, Promises

I read the message
I saved it
My fingers lingered
And the universe
Slyly laughed
As I stumbled on
The message you sent
A year ago
I'm sure you don't remember
But
God I hope you do
I pray you're not
As thoughtless and
Distracted
As the others
The promise
To
Take good care of me
I hold onto simple things
Like that
Surely you know that

I Wonder

You've seen me at
My worst
Do you have the
Patience
To see my best?

Stripped Down

Watch me wither
Watch me crawl
If you have the gall
I'm naked in my
Emotions
And I'm starting to
Feel alive
Heavy wet clothes
Bunched up in a corner
Staring at me
I finally feel free
Heavy corset
No longer itching and
Scratching
No longer
The fret.
