myself
Center of Me
Lay me down
strip bare
outside facades
dig deep
to the center
of who I am
uncover the soul
who reveals
to no one
except those
who appreciate
the poetry
of me

See Me
My Offering
My offering
me to you
purify my darkness
sanctify my soul
deliver me from myself
make me whole

Me
Somewhere Girl
I am
a somewhere girl…
*
in-between everyday thoughts
behind dreams’ shadows
atop soul’s hushed yearnings
under sentimental heartbeats
*
I am
a somewhere girl
and it is in the somewhere
I come to life.

(Written in response to the Tuesday Prompt on Go Dog Go Cafe to use “somewhere” at least twice in a poem. You can still join in!) #
Unhinged
I come unhinged
with every breath
I take
inhaling an ecstasy
leaving me weightless
in a heavy world
a high
I didn’t buy
an unknown flight
into anywhere
except former existence
and now
freedom caresses my wings
and I am flying
into the me
I never saw

I Am Me
I am
the STORY
only some wish to read
I am
the PASSION
only some choose to feel
I am
the WOMAN
only some choose to love
I am
the POETRY
of what was hidden
for so long
ME
renewed
revived
reborn
and I care not
who reads, feels, or loves
because
I DO

(#OctPoWriMo loosely based on Day 14 theme If I Were Me. I am catching up! I do write poems every single day, but I don’t always feel they are worthy enough for WordPress. Thus, why I am playing catchup here. And yes, that is me in the picture 😊)
Follow My Roads
I am a journey
unending roads
of things you don’t know
but want to
continuous wonder
winding through worlds
you always dreamed of
yet never dared follow
a walk along sensuality
where no one
ever took your hand
endless surprises
of honest, real woman
found only
in those with pure heart
limitless moments
of depth
you’ve never fallen to
and infinitely
simple, bare truth and love
only few
chase and capture

Between No One and Everyone
There’s a place I lie
between
no one and everyone
eyes don’t see me
hearts hear my thunder
hands can’t feel me
minds crave my thoughts
souls wander
in and out
searching the grace of affection
I
remain still
knowing
no one can have me
