Calloused Fingers
A spoken word poem about a boy i used to date.
I laid there letting his hands Trace my body like I was his canvas and his fingers the paintbrush.My heart raced, like the beginning of a drum solo.He whispered sweet nothings in my ear and for once I felt at peace...
Usually, I would have a thousand things- running through my head,where I was.who was around me.what I wore.If anyone was staring at me.but at that moment...
All I could think about...Was those calloused fingers.and how I felt Every single invisible patternYou drew on my body.
Your fingers would erupt a burning path Were ever you touched My soft delicate skin...Leaving a forest of goosebumps and open mouth kisses in its wake.

A Poem About A Girl
There once was a girlwith pretty blonde hair.She had a smile that could light up the night sky.and a personality that couldkill you in an instant.Her eyes were as pretty as the ocean.She was as sweet as sugar,and as kind as a blind man's dog.She loved poetry and late night walks.She was the epitome of kindness.but she sadly did not get it in return.because if you lookedJust beneath the surface,you could see heronce shiny blonde hair is nowa tattered tangled mess.her once beautiful blue eyes are now bloodshot and consumed in sorrow and anguish.Her porcelain soft skin is tattered in scars and bruises.Her smile is as fake as the eyelashes she wears.she is broken but no one can see...

electric silence: reframed
the gasps and the gaps the aching space between thoughts electric silence * Thanks for reading! Author's Notes: Sooo...experiment time. Had an idea that although the first time I posted this it was framed romantically - helped along with the image - it had been eating at me that it could be taken a different way, with a different image - less romantic - in fact, the opposite. So here you go.

Fish Face
Is it safe? Is it safe? It must be safe. I don’t hear any fishing lures plunking into the water or boats with trolling motors plying the surface of my lake. Yes, I said my lake, even though these air-breathing humans treat it and those of us living in its water as theirs. I have been battling with one of them for almost ten years. He started this war, but he’ll never win.
