The main thing I would do differently would be to not spend years being worried about what other people thought of me. Not any more! I'm free at last! I sometimes wonder why, as a child, . . . more

It's sunday
i am writing from the internet cafe
feeling unfulfilled,
an empty coffee cup
badly needs a refill
a strong tonic
some substance
that might shatter the porceline
floral pattern of . . . more

[This is one of several poems I wrote for a special person. I find myself needing to expunge them from my computer and if possible, from my mind. There is just too much pain in them. . . . more

when can I contain
my mind confused by passion
until souls dare dream
your gentle voice cries
until tears cascade sweetly
down my rounded cheek
my soul yearns for peace
as I know that your embrace

I could have loved you
if we had only met
but fate was unkind
and left me with regrets
of a love that could have been
or at least the best of friends
now that you've gone
no one to carry on
I could . . . more

I wish I were still a dumb young girl
who never realized what beauty was
the tender lies of sweet romance
should never have become my cross
stupidity vanished when I heard
my first intelligent word

apart and alone
too far from my home
I would hope for just a spark
from you here in the dark
it feels as if you're near
your voice comes through so clear
as if our minds could speak
through time's . . . more

our minds they meet in outer space
and share a telepath's embrace
although I know we've never met
I only have this one regret
no matter where our paths may be
you'll never be a part of . . . more

I feel electricity
through my nerves
when you talk to me
I get what I deserve
I feel incredible
somewhat indelible
as if our fates were sealed
and to each other we'd reveal
our true ideals of love . . . more

I'm on fire
burning out of control
with desire
now that you've captured my soul
I'd feel complete
if we could walk down the street
and so I'm yearning for you
thinking that we're in . . . more

can I admire you from afar
without surrendering
your voice
your heart
your eyes
don't know what I'm feeling
even so
my words could never let you know
how much my heart desires you

I've got to break my childish obsession
cause it will bring me down to my knees
for love can never be a possesion
the minute I confess your heart will freeze
I'm lying to myself saying I need . . . more

forgive my impetuous nature
I am not worth time or space
at least
not from you
compassion turns to cynicism
love to apathy
truth to lies
tears to desert
I don’t have even the energy
for hate
numbness . . . more

that were never meant for me
oh, how I break down and cry
I've been waiting for far too long
for true love filled with ecstasy

don't rescue me
I don't want you to save me
from my mistakes
it would make us unequal
pain would be the sequel
once it didn't work out
there is no doubt
in my mind
so don't try to be too . . . more

rhymes escape me
my poetry is dull
my song is off-key
my muse is in a lull
now that you have gone
I'm debating
how I turned my fate
concentrating
on how I loved too late
now that you have gone

I wish I never met you
cause now I can’t forget you
your very presence chills me to the bone
there’s no way I can bear
the way you stand and stare
at me like you were very much alone . . . more
