-
Blustery winds blow
strip me of my leafy shroud
-
Fifteen years old
Depressed, alone
-
Gone..... The child was gone.
-
So lock the door, turn out the light lie down here, right by my side
-
I don't care where we go If we'll return, I just don't know
-
Gone..... The child was gone.
-
She wakes in the morning
pulls the covers up over her head
-
like an alcoholic in detox, the tremors begin sweat, like a snake, trickling down my back
-
Four a.m. screen door slams
-
Nearer to God, an angel on high forever disguised as bright,sparkling
-
there was a house where every night
the screams would fill the quiet
-
-
-
the genuine girl concealed
-
the distance between more than just space
-
what have you wrought and taken away?
-
Dear Me, July 2, 2003
I was sorry to hear
-
Duh-dut, duh-dut
The theme song plays in my head
-
face tilted skyward
dark eyes squinting in the sun
-
Gone.....
The child was gone.
-
Baseball bat punishment,
words cutting like knives
-
Follow me into my toxic garden
Sit and watch as my soul hardens
-
A magnified city
Unknown to many
-
One little girl
Who grew up too fast
-
Baseball bat punishment,
words cutting like knives
-
Gone.....
The child was gone.

Follow me into my toxic garden
Sit and watch as my soul hardens

The world is your easel,
on which your mark is left.

Thursday's child has far to go ,
or at least that's what I've always been told.
-
oppressive twilight
fiery orbs surround
-
Playing a game
Hiding in your drink
-
Follow me into my toxic garden
Sit and watch as my soul hardens
-
a gentle caress with warm lips
inhaling your scent
-
Lost in my thoughts
Oblivious of the world
