Come sit with me, said the spider to the fly.Daylight's gone, moonbeams grace the sky. Glitter from the stars are captured in my web.Breaking night's darkness as sunbeams ebb. Visit for awhile, we can share a story or two.Growing our new friendship, don't...
Darkness.Embedded in the shadow.Shadow.Comes with the light.Its cold outsideEven though the sun shines.Its colder insideI'm suffocating with my plight.No one knowsHow much they can endure,Until you go Through and through the blows.Ups and downsThings keep...
Dead silence ringing in my ears Alone outside in the dark of night A coyote's howl from nowhere appears My mind not filled with any fright Then a call from an owl I hear Awaiting arrival of morning's light Nothing in the dark this old man fears Droplet fr...

When black clouds swarm around meand reach down deep inside,I push away the darknessand huddle close and hide.I tremble with the terrorthat has me in its frame,the dead tide sweeps across me asa darkness and a flame. I drown beneath those waters,I choke o...
Stop saying you love me, Because I don't think you understand how much I hurt, How much I cry, How many times I wake up in the middle of the night screaming, Because of you. I don't think you know how many times I look over my shoulder. Even though you'r...
I don’t know why I am feeling this way all I know is it isn’t good I feel like running a knife over my wrist Or mixing some medicine with alcohol Maybe even jumping out of a window I know these aren’t solutions But I did try talking and that didn’t seem t...
Once more a darkening viewrecaptures mentality's gaze. Bringing jumbled recollections,variegated images of the past. Jaded memories parade and flit, through a misty greying haze. Resolutions somehow evade, millions of questions asked. Detour after lengthy...
Tangled Breathless Torn, I lay here trapped as a fly. Still stuck in the past I formed my own web with tears and shame. Death is my spider and freedom. Wrap and warp myself with threads to keep safe. Spider web, Spider web, it’s my home and my debris. Thi...
Darkness, what a creepy mystery. It comes and goes so easily. Spun from lack, it does come back, 'less light remains, it's one true bane. For eradication is swift, and a flicker or a blink, can make it leave, go, disappear, flee. But long ago, 'fore you a...
The sun is shining, birds are chirping And there is a gentle breeze, Overall it is a beautiful day, However I am surrounded in darkness Feeling scared, unsure and very alone. Going through the motions of daily life As I plan for a future event That even t...
Drowning deep within one’s self Echos of fears and memories past Pressures of self doubt Resurfacing from time to time Eroding what’s left of one’s self confidence Seeking, searching for something Some answers that may help end the insecurity Intoxication...
The droning sound of my alarm clock shattered the peacefulness of my dreams, and I groggily hit the off button and then proceeded to stretch, stifling a yawn. The dim glow of the alarm clock read 6:00AM, and the sun had yet to rise. There was a lovely pin...
There were little fireflies in the dark sky, and that's how I knew it was nighttime. Momma called them stars, and I always loved looking up at them. There was also an enormous white will-o'-the-wisp that watched over the fireflies, but Momma called it the...
