What she doesn’t seem to know Is that I broke it off with you two weeks ago A letter that begins with “Dear John” Restating my intention to take action Letting go of the deep soul place I held sacred No one to blame, the commitment faded The stars were not aligned for us to … Continue reading Unwilling To Discount My Price

Being a hopeful romantic never leaves me hopeless.
Prelude to a Kiss
I glance at my phone and feel a little thrill “Hi sweetie!” I last saw him in April Ah yes, I was getting my birthday tattoo “It’d be great if we could get together" “I look forward to seeing you, too.” *** We meet at my favorite dinner spot I’m playing it cool, yet feeling … Continue reading Prelude to a Kiss
After Afore
11:11 am I step out of the shower Conscious not to slip on the tile I glance at the microwave 11:11, it blinks Make a wish If only I could go back to that grateful poem The one I wrote in January, I think I select a pink dry-fit dress Put my hair in a … Continue reading After Afore
Deceived
Those eyes so soft and kind Reflect a different set of mind Once enticing your kitten By all accounts I was smitten A hundred yard stare replaced The smiling crinkles of a happy face Among crocodiles you're swimming In a sea of love drowning Unattainable your heart's desire When integrity hangs by a wire I watch the full … Continue reading Deceived

A Sonnet of Hate and Love – 1
HATE My lying frog, you inspire me to write. How I hate the way you drum, talk and bore me, Invading my mind day and through the night, Always dreaming about the fake story. Let me compare you to a flaccid member? You are more cruel, entitled and unsatisfactory. Bold winds shake the leafage of … Continue reading A Sonnet of Hate and Love – 1
The Goddess and Her Lover
See the slithering of the lover, I think he's angry at another. He finds it hard to see the brie, Overshadowed by the wine flowing free. Who is that swimming near the shore? I think she'd like to eat s’mores. She is but a superior goddess, Admired as she sits among the novice. Her intelligent … Continue reading The Goddess and Her Lover
