Posted: 7/29/2007 10:25:39 PM | hiya NW.... things are moving along =) writing just hasn't been there for me lately... bits n pieces and then I lose it :/ Hope all is going well for you! My apologies on a belated congrats! I wish you and yours manyyyyyyyyy happy years!
here's a newer one... more just a scrambled empty mind of thoughts...
its been almost five years
since I watched him
walk out that door
and peace washed over me
as hope flooded in...
but the years haven't been
as easy as I thought they would
filled with doubt and fear
I know I can never go back
yet I feel locked in place
between there and somewhere
I've never been....
and I haven't a clue
which way to go....

Posted: 7/29/2007 10:43:47 PM | hard to trust; hard to believe
in words that sound so much the same
spilling out of the mouths of others
unknowingly falling upon deaf ears
spoken over and over again
as the soul cringes from within
wondering what sets them apart
wondering if their all the same
or if I'm simply stuck upon one path
destined to fall into that abyss
thats always filled with nothingness.....

Posted: 7/31/2007 9:57:01 PM | I whisper my good byes
and slowly back away
then quickly turn about
and to myself I swear
I won't glance back
on a love forsaken
I walked away
from hopes and dreams
and all the tears I shed
but now my eyes are dry
tis only my heart that cries....

Posted: 10/5/2007 12:11:44 AM | tears fall like rain
screams of thunder
echo through the night
revealing the pain
of a heart asunder
blood burns white
each treasured memory
a strike of lightening
destroying from within
leaves me buried in debris
as my mind keeps thinking
of where it is we've been....

Reign of tears
Screamed...fears
Storm! Storm bright!
Lightening! Exposed night..
Rain of tears
Washes away
Sadness fears
Of yesterday.
Very pleased to see Your postings, Caly!

of sentimental flow
a clouds shadow graces me in cool blue was
a songs of life now slowing to a gentle hum
here I am lost within thought
of seasons | |

Posted: 11/22/2007 7:20:09 AM | the river of self accusation flows so much easier
then placing the blame
where it belongs
straight through the heart of he who cast out the first angry word
self blame comes so quickly to the forefront of our weary minds when
we spent so much time believing what he told us
Instead of knowing the truth
that deep within our being is the person we've always been
from the outside, they may see a wilted flower but on the inside she has been there all along
standing tall
walking with a purpose
dancing with abandonment
and loving herself first so that someday soon, someone will be able to love her for what she is...and not what he thinks she should be | |

Posted: 12/24/2007 9:57:04 PM | Christmas time is here again
And Santa forgot me once more
No-one waiting under my tree
Nothing there, just floor
Oh well, what can I do
I really did my best this year
Cleaned up my act, cut back on some things
Even took a break from my beer
Not even a lump of coal to be found
Just skipped all together
Can't find a good reason as to why
It definetly wasn't the weather
I guess I'll just have to wait it out
And see what comes by my way
But if next year holds the same result
Then I'll swear off Santa for the rest of my days.
It's not that big, what I ask
Just the love and touch from that someone right
But apparently I just don't deserve it
Merry Christmas to all, and to all a good night... | |

Posted: 12/30/2007 9:25:10 PM | So here we are, my friends
at the end of another year
I have learned so many things
all of which I hold dear
Alas I have come to realize
that there's just one thing I can't learn
And that's how to keep confident
and not afraid of again, getting burned
But in a self-defensive move
I am doing what I know
Instead of continuing my search
I thinks it's best I just go
So at this year's end, only hours from now
I write my last posting here
Take care to you all, my fellow writer's, and friends
Peace and luck be with you next year!

Long since has been to settle here
Welcomed to fires heart content
Sheltered express without fear
Wondered were the 'Keeper' went
Light of fire lit to restore comfort wit
Offerd sustenance of encouragement
Hungering for that of 'Caly's' mind writ!
Cavern void
Tho' many been
Search yearning
Caly seen. | |

Posted: 1/25/2008 10:41:35 PM | Good luck, bad luck
I've had it all
No luck, dumb luck
any luck at all
It's all been there
when I needed an excuse
Now when I want it the most
it seems to refuse
Just a little luck
that's all that I ask
Just to get me through
just to get me past
Not to get me laid
or become a chick magnet
But to show me there's still a chance
to show that I still have it
To prove to me I'm not broken
and maybe lift my spirits a little
To finally maybe be approached
or just have someone smile at me a bit
Luck...is it a waste?
A myth passed on by the hopeless?
Is it something that was created
to help me redirect my focus?
Is it even worth asking about
was it all coincidence before
Should I be hoping for a sign
or just not expect anything anymore
Good luck, bad luck
I've had it all
No luck, dumb luck
any luck at all
Any, really...at all? | |

Posted: 5/20/2008 9:46:24 PM | I lived within a house
I could never call a home
my heart was full of love
yet my soul was all alone
I lived within a house
that was nothing more
then four sheltering walls,
a roof and a floor...
I lived within a house
with you by my side
but it never was a home
just a place... where our love died...

Posted: 5/21/2008 11:44:42 PM | 'Lighthouse'
Summoned to drawn with a breath of fresh air
Misted fragrant ocean salted wind swept there
Gulls calling in flight about their duty bound
Crashing waves blended soothing heart sound.
Sailors rash perceived but in comradeship
Lighthouse harbour safe mind's eye never slip
Whith duty away at sea vessel safe duty bound
Sanity of sanctity is remembered treasure found.
'Tho waves may crash upon the bow
Cold salt sting sea winds bestow
Little photos rekindle focus heart
Anchored strong with emotion impart.
Lighthouse stalwart of those at sea in thought
Favoured dreams of sweet loved ones brought
Anchor in the storms of cruel journeys at sea
Cherished memories while employed at duty.

Posted: 5/22/2008 9:27:26 AM | a frightened little girl
In the corner of my mind
didn't think she was smart
tho' knew she was kind
but that didn't matter
she would always feel dumb
didn't understand the rules
grew up and became numb
numb to the world
and the horrific pain it holds
couldn't bare to feel it
couldn't conform to the molds
They didn't seem to understand
she danced to a different beat
sometimes she would lose it
but always landed on her feet.
No longer the frightened little girl
who's forgiving and kind
to the people who've been cruel
who messed with her mind
Through deceit and innuendo
they slandered and smeared
contempt prior to investigation
wonder what it was they feared
she's taking back her power
not smart but oh so wise
beautiful outside and in
no longer hurt by the lies
as the numbness subsides
and the pain seeps in
she smiles to herself
it's not about who wins
Love and compassion
is one thing she learned
a life of joy and happiness
is one thing she earned
let the self righteous
hold on to their spite
She will love them anyway
she knows what is right.
If I knew then
everything is in it's place
I would do it all again
again, just in case... | |

Posted: 5/22/2008 9:38:36 PM | Hiya TBK! thnx for dropping by and sharing your poem it's much appreciated!! also 'tis nice to see you passing by on your travels once again... the cavern surely has been rather barren....
hiya StarrSpirit welcome to the cavern... thnx for sharing your poem I really enjoyed it! Hope you'll stop back by again soon =)
I'm just a woman
your an angry man
I'll forgive your errors
I'll forgive your ways
as we await
your judgment day
for as surely as I know
who it is I am
your children too
will someday see
the real you
so years from now
when your sitting down
feeling all alone
embrace your anger
call it your home
befriend your demons
your greatest fans
for on judgment day
they're all you'll have
but if by chance
sorry you should feel
cry yourself a river
a million times over
and then perhaps
you might begin to see
the anguish you caused
your children and me...

To leave all thats true
Know what it is...
Leave it ~
know !
Children know...
wifes know too!
Never somethin'
to write!
It is written ...~
One day ...
will come.
You will
open...
and burn
for the life,
that you yearn for!
The one you
wished for
all your life!
You may cry...
many times!
It is done! | |

Posted: 5/22/2008 10:31:59 PM | Leave all that's true
Something I can not do
In spite of presentations:
Brutal Honesty
Holy wars
Honest government
Satan's Claws at Christmas
Eastern Bunnies..
Or perhaps because of that presented...
Anger unseen in the pretense of 'status quo'
Children unguided scared to day care go
Monstors seen and somehow cherished
For fear of self centred paycheque perished.
Tears will cry many many times to repeat
Untill strong Ones stand to fight to defeat!
Poetic verse to subtle expression expose eh
Warriors summoned to battle depth foray!
Analogies of sailors gone at sea in duty bound
Expressions of heart missed family profound
Ball games missed and little story books to read
Duty bound thought honoured for, so it's said.
What hypochrytic crocks of refuse stinking
Religious control of emotions sinking
Perpetuatated false ideals battled against
In dreams of home with white picked fence. | |

Mercy Killing
He loved her completely but she'd been burned
His love could not console her for the way she was spurned
He saw only her beauty and tenderness of soul
And told her how he loved her so
But all his entreaty was consumed as by a black hole
And so she watched his suffering of soul
As she knew that he would love her and she couldn't love him in return
She became evasive and her demeanor cold and stern
She plunged the knife into his heart by her cutting words
Then in the air an eerie silence the only thing to be heard
She truly did love him but she could plainly see
that the one way she could love him best was to set him free
In her secret agony she cried in bitterness of heart
Her only consolation that she gave him a fresh new start | |
