Secret Dream
The night is bright under the silvery beams of the moon.
The forest ablaze with the music of the night.
The stars twinkle in perfect beat with nature.
The grass like velvet under her feet.
She stands, her posture perfect.
Her costume a pale mixture of gold and silver shafon.
Small stones of amethus, peridot, and garnet glimmer.
The material flows majestically in the nights living breath.
Her arms extended in an perfect arch, she began to move.
Her movements flowing together in an angelic fashion.
Around she twirls and she reaches for the sky
Her body strong and yet fragile.
Her dance, it tells a story only she can know.
Her f
If Only
I was not there when you were taken away.
I could not say good-bye.
I didn't get one last hug.
Neither did I get to kiss your cheek on last time.
I didn't get to tell you how much I love you and what you meant to me.
My heart breaking with every beat.
Tears falling like rain.
Sorrow chills me to the bone.
Life with out you seems so bleak.
But, I know I must go on.
Just to see you one more time.
Just to touch you one more time.
Just to hug you one more time.
Just to say I love you one more time.
Just to hear you voice one more time.
If only I could I would.

Words
life
death
the known
the unknown
burning of fire
coldness of ice
tears
laughter
bitterness
sweetness
numbness
feeling
swirling
twisting
churning
inside
outside
Just words to some, but reality to me.
Choking, strangling, and torture me they do.
Which way to turn....
Lost within them I am.
family
friends
love
comfort
support
peace
hope
Just words to some, but lifelines to me.
Open arms, shoulders to lean on, and someone to listen.
Run to them I must.
Without them I would be lost.

Fight
broken
twisted
cold
angry
helpless
empty
alone
Fight!
Fight!
Fight!
I look into my heart.
See what I want to live.
See what I want to be.
Hear what I want to say.
But still cannot move past what I feel.
Fight!
Fight!
Fight!
May GOD help me to break free of this tortured way.
I want to be the person of yesterday.

Memories
A smile plays across my face.
A giggle escapes my lips.
A joke spoken sounds in my ears.
A touch of your gentle hand I still feel.
Warmth fills the void of my soul.
A firm hold placed around my waist, steady it was.
I did not stumble or fall.
Words of wisdom and support whispered into my ears.
My heart filled joy and tears.
Here we are, just you, me and memories.
In my heart you will always be.
