“Take me with you”
I whispered to the waves.
Wondering what it would feel like
To have my clothes
Cling
To my skin,
Heavy and wet.
Yearning to feel the numbness
That would blanket my body
From the cold.
- f.m.
my poetic escape from my emotions
“Take me with you”
I whispered to the waves.
Wondering what it would feel like
To have my clothes
Cling
To my skin,
Heavy and wet.
Yearning to feel the numbness
That would blanket my body
From the cold.
- f.m.
Sometimes
All it takes
Is a quiet moment
After a night with
Good friends
To realize
That you really are
So blessed.
That all of your chaos
And emotional turmoil
Aside,
You are loved
And supported
And blessed.
It is so easy
To feel alone
And unwanted,
But all it takes
Is a moment
To remember
You’re not.
-f.m.
To all the children I’ve held
Know that I hold you still
Tenderly
In my heart
Wrapped in warm memories.
To all the children I’ve held
Know that I see you still,
Excited
By the possibility
Of crossing your path
When you are fully grown.
To all the children I’ve held
Know that I love you still
Wholly
Unconditionally
And passionately
No matter who you become.
To all the children I’ve held-
Even you
Who may not remember
Me-
Wherever you travel,
Know
That I hold you
That I see you
That I love you
And I always will.
- f.m.
I wish
That the issues
Would push me away
Far enough
To never get close
To you
Again.
But the love
Keeps me
Intertwined
And I cannot
Tear myself
Away,
The good times
Keep me bound
Tightly
To you.
-f.m.
There are so many beautiful things in this world
And yet I lay awake
Wasting my time
Thinking about you.
-f.m.
I still touch my belly
As if it were still swollen-
Holding onto you,
Sending you
My love.
-f.m.
Waiting for someone
Who will look at my need
For constant reassurance
As extra opportunities
To tell me they love me.
I
Am not
A burden.
-f.m.
What a mess,
Tangled shreds of my heart
Strewn about
My mind
Unravelling
Quicker than I can gather it up.
I reach out
To draw you closer
But my hands
Leave bruises
On your shoulders
As they push you away.
-f.m.
“Mindlessly destroying hearts In a desperate panic to save mine. Recklessly I bulldoze on Ripping hearts out as I move along. Raising havoc, chaos, madness Inside the heads of the hopeless. Pain was never an intention But simply a mere subconscious projection. I’ve built up walls and posted signs Do not go here, do not enter. But still I lure them past the gates With bait I’m sure they will not pass. But when they’ve made it past the moat When they’ve slain the dragon When they’ve made it to my tower That’s when things do turn sour. When they ask why I can not love them My one worded reply is your name.”

“I wanted to be the one To make you Happy. To be the reason you longed for Lunch break, Morning, Weekends. I was always looking for seeds I could bring to you Just to watch them blossom Out of your mouth, Anything I could give to you Just so I could Writhe Smugly, Blissfully, In your pleasure. But You tried to feed me Fish food When I am a Wolf. I wanted to make you happy But you let me starve To death.”
