A Tear
A Tear
Sad water raining
down
A deep, stained path
it travels...
Down my cheek it falls
burning...
Etching it's trail into
my skin...
A Tear.

I found this poem as I was looking through some of her things.

Crystal Box
Locked inside a crystal box,
I hide my dreams and fears.
It's filled with pictures,
crumpled notes,
Sealed closed with blood and tears.
Locked inside a crystal box
hidden, cobwebbed in deceit.
A tangled web of lies and pain,
Daydreams of my defeat.
Locked inside my crystal box,
My heart is melted wax.
I'll bolt its lock and hide the key,
My crystal box of past.

Winter
I asked the winter
why it was so cold
so ancient so white
so bitter and old--
In whispering winds
it sent an answer to me
a vision of presents
under a Christmas tree --
Children playing
in a blanket of snow
snowmen and igloos
cups of warm cocoa --
I asked the winter
why it was so cold
so ancient and white
so bitter and old --
In whispering winds
it answered me
"That's what winter
is supposed to be."

Untitled
Back to the place of my birth
My whole self reinvented.
A metamorphosis into something
dark, yet beautiful.
A place that haunts my every thought.
A torture chamber for my already worn out soul.
Eyes filled to the brink,
are too proud to let go,
and as I emerge, a new and
changed individual,
I realize how far I've come.
They can't take me back
without a fight.

Untitled
A hidden secret
beneath my wings
a satin song
the wind seems to sing
And I just met
myself today
free and selfless
in every way
