Danusha Marie

A lie is bitter
Stain on the soul
Muddies the waters
To what end or goal
...

The melody of love
Is a vibrant track
With highs and lows
The lyrics pull you back
...

I came into this world
A mixed blessing
Cast in stone
Emotions all a swirl
...

I found myself
After many years
Trials and tribulations
Too many tears
...

A broken heart is tender
A bruise upon the soul
Wounded by a lover
Who failed his only role
...

I had a plan
I chose a path
Made a commitment
Settled in
...

I woke up at the edge
Of life today
I could see my path
And where I strayed
...

The heart and mind
Play funny games
Battle for billing
Fear or logic
...

I’ve left the past in its place
Transferred disappointments to lessons learned
Sweet memories close, not to chase
Cashing in pain for happiness earned
...

Lightening does strike twice
Perhaps for me it shall strike thrice
For the unknown is vast and wide
And my heart, for only so long can hide
...

Trust is a gift
Vulnerability
Naked and raw
From soul to soul
...

Wistful whims and joyful dalliances
Were childlike ways
A carefree indulgence
Skipping stones
...

A heart once broken
In time can mend
To love oneself
To have faith again
...

When the heart skips a beat
Is it love or fear it feels
Both, perhaps at once it seems
It calls for something, in fact it screams
...

My heart was guarded
Behind this thick wall
Built brick by brick
With each of life's fall
...

Time falls
Like silk to the floor
Crumpled yet beautiful
Shaped by what was before
...

He looks so deep into my eyes
So deep into my soul
Walls begin to crumble
Exposing heart’s role
...

His lips are sweet
Like drips of honey
Tender passion
Stirring emotion
...

She moved across the stage
Toes pointed
Arms gracefully extended
Each movement telling her story
...

To write is to exhale
The words take shape
I'm vulnerable to exposing
Truths hidden behind my veil
...
