Lost Sea.

Suffering

for there is nothing left to lay in;

The meadows

Birds talk beyond understandings.

Freeing worlds of red fires

and oceans blue.

Eyes of the scourned,

My poetry abused.

 

 

Red.

The red wine coats and stains

my breasts-

Beyond you,

Beyond me.

Our language lost;

No known forgiveness.

Red soaks through,

with a mistaken identity

I can lie, I can say it was you

who threw this into my lap

and walked away without a care;

But I'm better, or so I think

So I sit there, take the abuse

and wait for the day you'll come around again.

You'll come around again,

Won't you?

If not, I'll live in this Red.

 

 

Recall

I don't remember failure,

just inconsistency.

I dont remember heat

But my blood boiled.

I do recall believing

that I was insane

leaving myself for dead.

I don't remember thinking I was cliche,

just another stupid woman

faced with reality as a punch into my stomach.

It left me seeking desperately for air

that my lungs could not grasp.

I don't remember my thoughts,

just actions; that I slapped into the face

of my better self.

We are not far from happiness,

Or maybe this is it.

It's impossible to believe myself for wrong

Or was it you ?

You who drove me down this frost bitten road

where redemption is forbidden;

But I don't remember,

I just recall.
