——————————————-

Rapturous visions -

engraved upon my heart.

Oh, to yearn,

for such an end to start.

Wishing for tomorrow

to be the final breath,

yearning for a freedom,

that I only find in death.

Days will not console me.

Weeks offer no peace.

Months are given up to years.

Years will remain empty.

That final day -

I bow my head and pr...

If you stood in a room that was flooding, would you tell your loved ones what you see,

Or would you wait till it consumed you, believing death might set you free

Maybe you think they won’t try to patch the walls that break around you

Maybe you’re convinced that there’s nothing to be done

But if you fall under the water, darkness blocks out all the love

And you think it’s gone, because you can’t se...

Wishing for peace

In a world of turmoil

Remembering the Golden Fleece

From the world of old

Time to mend,

With a whisper to please

Without and end,

Instead there had to be a moment of ease

Tessa🦋...

Every day

I look in the mirror

And frown

I’m not the girl anyone wants

I’m not skinny enough

My hair isn’t soft enough

My eyes aren’t interesting enough

My personality is too loud

To excited

To much

Every day

I tell myself that I’m not good enough

Because I’m not

For you

Because no one wants me

No one ever wants me

“I think she likes you!”

That’s a lie

I hate my body

I hate my face

I hate my ha...

Everyday breaks the same way,

All the stress and loads we must last.

This busyness cannot make us sway,

It starts even before we break fast.

We must be statues upon this baying crisis,

Steadfast in our in pursuit of our tailored peace.

All the people blur and become faceless,

Never meek just one piece

We stand ahead, but hold close those we love,

Never begging nor on our knees.

These we find whe...

Assume to be done

Prepare for lifelong peace and relaxation

Summer breezes and dancing laughter among friends

Put your feet up

Despite your hard work, its not done.

Despite the long ways from which you've desperately dragged yourself here, it is not done.

The stars shine from within you, but they will always take more.

The sun rises everyday, and so it sets everyday.

You have never "given" enough....

Wet on wet

The brush loaded caresses the damp smooth hot press block

Carmine and phthalo green explodes along the line

Into the transmission of light through a glass of day lilies

And

In that moment

I slip my dog collar

Escaping

Through a 4 by 6 opening

For a hour or so

Lashing myself together in strokes...

Without end

A moment of ease

We pass in the field

Breaking teeth

On our rotten cores

It’s been a long time since we could feel

The darkness on our skin

Swallowed up looking like we could be something

That great winter

We choose inhabited

Driving alone

Both hands on the wheel

But your hand on mine

Where did the time go

It’s been a long winter

Away from home

Away from you

The snow drifts pass

A...

Days, weeks, months on this road

Riddled with stones, dust, and holes,

I sometimes doubt this loss of control

Over the surroundings I behold

Was worthy price for the loss of my load.

What ill might this wasteland bode?

“Remember in the olden days

When hour by hour we could gaze

On wild flowers all ablaze

With beauty gathered from star-rays?

But now we stumble hot and dazed

Where beauty long ago...

Painful trials upon the burden

Life without expectancy

Open to the idea of fun without justification

Saddened by the loss to time

To what end must we live?

To what point must I suffer?

When life is terminal and life will end shortly

Take a breathe

Take a moment

Realize with what time you have left

Do what needs to be done

Impact life so you will never die

Live your life

Tomorrow needs...
