Muse Poetry

You are always enough
Consistently surprising me
With days long & gray
Mindlessly the hours creep by
Every night I come home to you
You make it all disappear
And in your warm brown eyes
I see, I feel so much
I see the beauty in me
I feel overflowing love
I see an endless future
I feel a peace inside me
Always a soft tide washes over me
Cleansing me of another day
You are more than enough

(oldie)

make no mistake
my breath is still there
but i have stepped aside
surrounding myself
caffeine nicotine
my words
wondering where it all went
truth that was shared
notice i'm alone
i asked for this
only tonight
I am this
somtimes drifting aside
but if you look right
where you always have
you might see
what never left
that still shows
the reason i came

Fear as motivation
My passion strangling me
Will I always live in wonder?
Never know where I stand?
Letting my future pass me by
I’m still staring ahead
Another train to catch
Still nodding my head
It falls through my hands
I still can barely taste it
My dreams coated in sugar
Through only an aftertaste
Stomach fiercly growling
On an island of starvation
All I want is a bite

In your eyes
I can see parts of him
When you smile
I can see him smiling too
But everywhere you look
He’s nowhere to be found
All of your needs
Everyday go unanswered
You are left alone
Holding so many questions
Someday you will understand
One day the truth will find you

Rain crashing down
Chills under my skin
Needing your warmth
Lying beside you
Your voice it soothes
Words flowing through the night
Every other sound
Fades into the chill of the air
All I see is you
All I need is you

Being with you
Knowing your with me
This big empty hole
Has finally been filled
I can really breathe
I can find my peace
No matter the space between
You are always beside me
I now know what it is
I now know just how it feels
To really love another
To truly be loved in return

Watching life pass by
Lush green grass
You smell the beauty
You can almost taste it
But it's a life you'll never know
A life you can only dream of
Dreams filling up
As you lay beside the window
Smooth breeze tingles your skin
Warm sun beats through
Nothing is quite as wonderful
As the life you cannot reach

Little girl
I don't know you from any other
But I can feel your heart breaking
You feel alone and unsure
You wish you could make things better
If I could just sit next to you
And try to give you reassurance

Little girl
Whatever happens
His love was always there
Everyday was a restless fight
Days dragged on for years
Those nights you cried so hard
Inside he was crying too

Little girl
I may never mean anything to you
But I know him inside and out
If you question whether his love is real
Listen inside to that big strong heart
Today, tomorrow and forever
Your bond will never be broken

I can't get out
Outside myself
All I can hear are my thoughts
Everything else is muffled
I'm just looking for peace
A place to feel nothing

Watching from the sidelines
Cheering on my team
When I scream it’s silent
It’s just me, I’m irrelevant

I see my team losing
Pain pours on like rain
All I want is to help
But I can’t, I’m invisible

I’m waiting for the game to end
It gets so lonely over here
Still time goes on and on
It’s too bad, I don’t matter

Maybe I should go home
Give up this game I can never win
Without me nothing changes
Oh well, I’m just the girlfriend

I heard a scream
While I was eating my ice cream
I heard a knock
When the clock struck twelve o’clock
I went to go answer the door
Should I go a little more?
So I answered the door
And there I saw for sure…

Thanks for stopping by to read my personal poetry. I am not always in love with my own writing but it feels very good to do it anyway. I've been writing since I was very young but haven't done poetry much in a long time.

I've seen all the people stopping by to read it...I like to know who my visitors are. Whether you like, irreverent or are apathetic to my poetry I'm just glad you've stopped by to read it at all.
