DAUGHTER OF A CRACKED MIND

Misty blue haze, rise above the oceans, green waves
Loves seeds, entangle seaweed, washed ashore
Salty waters flow, to carve its sandy caves
...

Soft ivory flows the ground
Leaves of white and green
Beneath the grand old oak
...

She stands waiting, cold and lone
Face painted, body half covered
Aged beyond, her tender years
...

Crystallized tears
Fallen through the years

Voices shout my fears
...

I was told to stand and hold
Two buckets of water by my side,
Arms raised, muscles ache,
When will they break?
...

Mother, you were supposed to protect
Instead you closed your eyes

Did you think if you could not see
...

Mother, did you mean it
when you called me 'brainless'?
Did you really think this to be so?
I wonder if you knew
...

Dear mother,

Now as an adult, I'll ask you this
Do you remember the torturous
...

Tell me mother, I need to know
did you think about the pain
before you chose to inflict it?
...

Who are we?
We are flesh, blood and bones
the skeleton that makes our shape
...

Love reaches with art
Taking hold
My precious heart
Careful now
...

Cool waters lap the white sands
Oceans salted taste, upon my lips
Birds circling, hesitate to land
...

Softest of little bugs, wrapped up tight
Handed to me on a cold winters night
Can someone, please turn on the light?
This precious little bug, I need to sight
...

STEEL RAZER
CUT DEEP MY FRIEND
Tears bleed from my skin
My blood red river run free
...

Pretty pink lace

Hemmed upon her skirt
...

Words of wisdom, flow to my ears
Brought to me on Angel's Wings
telling me what I already knew
I just couldn't bare the pain to hear
...

Looking back over time, the things we have done
Where we have come from, where we have been
The things we have seen, the people we have met
The pictures we have taken and kept, our memories
