Charms
Blue
There is a part of my heart
That is an empty shell…
The one that I love I
Cannot tell…
I’ve never wanted anyone
As much as I want you, the
Thought of never seeing you
Again makes my heart so
Empty and blue…
I can only dream in silence
That maybe, just maybe one day
We can be reunited, and make
A dream come true of this
Love unrequited…

Shards
Blasted to shards by
way of friendly fire,
my heart not knows the difference
between love and desire…
Your kiss so warm and passionate
Yet your distance so cold and
Separate…This game we played
has cost me much, yet all I can
think about is your touch…
I know this was a connection
meant to be, maybe to wake
Me so I can see the road to a life
Of love and peace, or perhaps
To show me what I have been
missing, so I wouldn’t die without
understanding what love felt
like once again in the arms of
A true gentleman…I’m not quite
sure what it all was, yet blasted
To shards my heart remains…
Even though it was by friendly fire
I still feel the pain…yet through
the rubble I know I will find the
strength I need to regain what is mine.

Skin
I've got new skin
I've got it back
almost lost it while
following your track
your life your dreams,your ever
so important schemes, never did they include me
never my skin did you see,
Existing only to nourish yours, while you watched my
heart drain right through my pores.
Though weathered and lined from trying so hard, I
have no regrets, but I have accumulated many scars.
I must shed this skin that you want me to fit in and
nourish my own, this beautiful new skin which I have
finally grown.
This new skin that I have grown will be strong and
supple, open to the touch of someone who truly wants
to be a couple, it will glow with warmth and protect
my heart as I journey out to make this fresh start........
I'm truly loving this new skin I am now in.

Traded
Love is forever or so they say…
Yet you loved me only through
My pretty days…our house, we
Made a home, our children all
Successful and on their own…
Now is the time for us to enjoy
As we accomplished our mission,
We were supposed to sail Ahoy…
Instead you have traded me in,
Like always you felt the need
To win…so take your prize
That fills your eyes and set
Asail. As I wave to you my
Final goodbyes….
So traded I have been, but only
To win a life anew, one without
You…Rest assured the time will
Come when you will find that
You are the one…that has
Faded…that has been traded.

Unborn
Not knowing what is yet to come
I welcome you and all that needs
To be done…I see in your eyes
The warmth and the passion that
I so need in order to glow like
A woman and to be able to feed
Your every desire and your every
Need…
So let’s grow some more,
for together we can be, two as one
With a love so true, the kind of love
that could never come undone…
In the life that lays ahead, I want you there with me
but wait we must until we are free
So let’s grow some more before
We are born, for life has its
Way to maim and scorn. We need
To be strong, so for now, our
Love must remain unborn.
