STOP

By




Stop stop stop!
i heard her say, stop. 
stop the touching the poking the kissing and hugging
why can't you stop!

the ground is soft among its rocks
the sky is distant and vast

stop stop stop!
i heard her say, stop.
stop looking stop talking stop telling me. i am not here for your loving

the bare winter trees
the snow, the bitter wind and empty fields, warm and full of life

stop stop stop!
i heard her say, stop.
stop laughing, stop playing, stop you're being annoying

the days are getting longer
the night is refreshing, and my fear is real

stop stop stop!
i heard her say, stop.
stop crying, stop whining, grow up or get an army
fight your battles, fight your fears i don't need you near

dreams of grandeur never seen 
only death, confusion and sin
sleeping is not easy, not easy you see 
for when my eyes close, my fears come to me
no way to stop them not way to leave
just constant sorrow and the things i've seen

stop stop stop!
i heard her say, stop.
stop telling me, stop waking. take your meds or do you hate me?

my love for you is pure, i said. my heart is bruised, confused... 
but nothing to be heard

footsteps on the stairs, yelling and screaming
so quiet and clear
my life has changed by the only one i held dear.

A Woman

By
I Met A Woman I Met A Woman Bright, witty; a delight Her life open and nothing to hide Shared her pain, joy and time Clear to all, happy is she But happy is a shell for you to see Inside is a truth, too much to share As days passed she stored it there I met a woman Bright, witty; a delight She blinded me with jokes, redirected me with banter   In hopes I would not see inside her I met a woman Whose shell was cracked Cracked from all the weight of masked laughter The laughter was pain sifted from banter Unrestrained banter that made her wonder Wonder how long, how long until quiet and safe is all around her I met a woman Bright, witty; a delight Whose shell was cracked; exposing her light
