Untitled 4

The snow is falling
from a clear blue sky;
The sun is shining
through the clouds;
Making a ladder
to the heavens;
Where the Gods play
with the Godesses;
So leave us alone
for the day.

Caterpillar

I crawl on the nasturtium leaves,
day after day after day,
the same fucking thing,
until I hide away and
could easily die.
Watch me grow butterfly wings.

BPD

See me from a distance
I won't seem any
difference from you.
You wonder, is it true
am I faking it.
Come close up,
you might feel it,
you might hear it.
But still you will not
see it.
If I don't let you.

A Picture of Me

So many of me;
Yet none at all;
Confusing the self.
The mirror shows
Nothing but colours;
Randomly put
Together.

puzzle

I'm disappointed,
but it was your choice to take.
The puzzle allows,
what do they know,
the memory will come,
grass tickling feet.

Borderline Personality Disorder

If you want to see what it's like, and have it explained to you better than I ever can, I suggest you go into my profile and watch the audio clip.

Ode to Lorazepam

I choose life
as long as the
Lorazepam works
as a substitute for
not being around.
It let's me float away,
and see the sky,
as blue as can be.

No Wings to Carry Me Away

There are no wings to carry me away.
The Gods do not seem to want me,
yet they will not reveal my purpose.
As I wander aimlessly about the earth.
Trying to make my own way,
with paints and words, as though they
are my only constant companions.
I see beauty fleetingly, in the sun,
peeking through the crack in my blinds.

I keep the blinds down and the shadow in,
maybe I'll melt in the sunshine if
there is too much warmth and light.
So I'm stuck here living hour by hour,
wondering seriously why.
There must be a reason, some purpose,
I have done my duty to humanity
saved lives, given birth, comforted.
Yet there are no wings to carry me away.
