The Morning After

*A collection of poetic thoughts*

Micro Poetry ~

Starving for affection. Gives a new meaning to eat your heart out.
~
Using my stanzas to heal what time never could.
~
When my heart has run out of excuses ~ you'll find me under crumbling walls ~ more alive than I have ever been
~
My fractured heart speaks in tongues ~ He seeps through my cracks.


Haiku ~

Self preservation ~ hides quiet in hazel eyes ~ Miss me when I'm gone

Haiku

I wake up screaming
he is painted in my dreams
Van Gogh would be proud

Sometimes..

The most freeing thing you can do is to admit you have no control.

I Never Knew When To Say When

Can your mind really control what your heart wants to feel if your emotions are a product of your thinking? How can you tell your heart not to feel something? Is protecting your heart really worth losing the experience of giving yourself completely to someone, no matter the outcome? Maybe I'm more ready to crack my head open after diving in than most. Maybe I'm a fool. But I'm in love. & ironically enough "love is a pain I would rather feel than nothing at all". Being heartbroken is devastating, but being apathetic is scarier.

How Well Do You Know Your Food?

Do you know the names of some of the worst food additives
the FDA is allowing you to put in your body? On the list is most
soy products processed with hexane, a neurotoxin that's also a petroleum
by-product of gasoline refining. As well as soy protein isolate. This stuff is in EVERYTHING. Most organic soy products are safe but some companies like CLIFF BARS still use these harmful ingredients while claiming to be organic. Educate yourself by taking time to read the link below.

Other additives to stay away from include High Fructose Corn Syrup, MSG or Mono Sodium Glutamate,Sodium Nitrate as well as artificial colors, preservatives or flavors. These products cause neurological diseases as well as wreck havoc on your entire system. Many additives put into processed foods & used to process them can be found in household cleaning products, nail polish remover & even gasoline. Did you know the FDA has approved the use of ammonia in beef for big chain fast food chains because it kills E. Coli? They're feeding us window cleaner! Am I the only one that's outraged by this?! Do your research! Know what's in your food! Say no to all these harmful chemicals the FDA is allowing us to consume by buying organic products. It's not only good for you, it helps to sustain our earth as well.

I Am A Cobbled Inamorata

Hidden in the invisible cities of you
my heart was immortal

I felt you long before you were ever there
like your old soul's hand was always on my shoulder
& my heart was too young to know a thing
about fractured innocence

Ancient scripture spoke of your eyes
& the gods were always smiling
in the rapture of my love

I always saw things a little more left of centered than most

Unbidden

Seeded in broken lights of hope

Watercolored in the blackest eyes

Love treads in shallow waters

Refraction Of The Tides

Woven into transcendental realms
my lazily made halo breathing ether into broken vessels

He smiles like the summer winds that swept me

Heart singed, & curved to the silence of the night
that's where you'll find me
etched in the burning breath echoing cross my lips

Etched In An Exhale

In the alchemy of my swallowed tongue
I force an elegiac breath
the silent lament of "I miss you" running down my cheeks.
