[My familiar face]


His face is so familiar. I never forget he's where?  Chi-see him everyday, when I sit at home and stare . . . Stare down the living table - to the other side. I picture him just barely, giving  'too cool for school' in vibe. /He knows me very well. And I think I know him to. We've known each other a while . . . like most 'couples' do.  But still there's so much more that we really do not know - I ask, he answers back, shakes his head - sighs very low.  

I like to bother him, from time to time to time - he doesn't respond back; He gives me a heart attack! by the way he seldom reacts. /I never know what he's thinking - nor if he understands, I'm stumbling when I'm speaking. /Sometimes, I hide from him because I don't know who I am. He listens, covers his face, should I? nope! don't tAtch his hand?

All the random thoughts that creep inside my head, I wish I said them all, especially before bed. I open up - same page... making moonlight into smiles, days go sunny thoughts, I feel just like a little child. 

/I'm not as patient as he-  I act, then follow through. I never take time to wait, like there's ticking, time, BOOM! He takes his time with ease, he's sneaky with his friends. He handles quite a lot, I question? . . . get under his skin. Without staring in my face, I sense, but know he's there. He keeps me in his back pocket, bandana! - shows me he cares. 

/Gives me a  'talking to,' like modern Mamas Listen' by telephone - I seem to get more 'out of line' - he fixes my moody groans. I care about him deeply, more deeply than he knows. I just wish he showed me the same, as our relationship has grown. 

I learn a lot from him - he keeps me on my toes. I act as if we're the same, but little does he know . . . there's this mutual agreement we share without explaining - I like to think of him. . . Wake Up!  eyes red, nose runny, complaining~

Our relationship is so silly, like two, battling in the ring - but once we dance it out, boy! I feel the way I cling . . . I cling to him sometimes, like he's my only friend. He, who understands me...the tough, the bold, my bends. 

I excite to talk to him: Boy! do I have some News!!! He burst berries when I bob down, its just an inside joke - in the room. I enjoy being around him and laughing through and through: The old, the new, the 'what bothers us' - the why? and the who? I'm smiling now because he means more to me, more than he even knows . . . he's quiet with his care, but slow, yet calm, a cool soul. 

I follow in his words, like footprints in the sand, take quotations like bookmarks - my mental note at hand. Phone conversations don't work- I can't reach him when he's dead . . . dead tired to the world from all his crafty ways, Get Bread! He works long on that island, at times, it makes me choke. I cheat myself a friend, when I can't take a silly joke. There is a crack of love, in the hardest, my LA Times - I trust him with my life - does he trust his with mine?

That MISSconception

underneath that mask - there's a person there
behind that clever wall - that person stands in fear

without asking . . . she has a thought
without smiling . . . she has a heart
without words . . . she has an ear
without  looking . . . she knows you're near

I think if you ask her a question, she will be quick to answer
and just like you, as clear as night, she even sheds a tear

this person is not a monster. this person is not a star.
this person is not anyone you've considered friend
. . . from a far

But please check yourself, when you decide to judge
Make sure to look in the mirror, before you hold that grudge
A person feels supported when someone shows they care
and misunderstood at times by those who aren't aware
open up your mind to things you do not know
don't follow by the crowd and only exist by show

i'll only give as much, as you would allow me to give
I will not step back and let YOU decide . . . how I'm supposed to live

FAMished!

I don't need you anymore. You chose to not need me. 
I don't know you anymore. You chose to not know me.
We don't talk anymore. You chose not to talk to me.
We don't laugh anymore. You chose not to laugh with me.

I wish you gave me more. You chose not to give to me.
I hoped you'd cry some more. You chose not to cry for me.
We never connect anymore. You chose not to connect with me.
We used to do much more. You chose less to use of me.

I hate a little more. You choose to not love me.
I'm bothered a lot more. You choose not to bother me.
We ignore a little more. You choose not to speak with me. 
We live our lives some more. You chose not to 'live' with me.

I'm furious some more. You choose to infuriate me.
I'm sad a lot more. You choose how to sadden me.
We understand less more. You choose not to stand with me.
We see each other no more. You choose, far away from me.

I create a lot, lot more. You choose not to inspire me.
I worry about much more. You choose to worry less of me.
I crave for you some more. You choose not to hunger for me.
I think of you much more. You choose not to think of me. 

We sigh a little more. You choose not to sigh for me. 
Your words hurt more and more. You chose not to listen to me.
We argue a lot more. You choose not to side with me.

You've never knocked on my door. You chose to let me be. 

the message, the music

my life is composed of songs i cannot write. words i wish i danced. thoughts i hold through time. thoughts from pen to paper - heart to help - lips to lever. i never thought of my self as much until "i looked into your eyes" - "you say, I'll be alright - I'm gonna trust you babe . . . " 

'light' is given to me in lost perspective. my being is completely captivated. sometimes i sit there in trance hoping for someone to come save me...that movie where nothing else in the world matters. if only they were fairytales i would make no mistakes. my company would stay and this lonely place would be in memory.

vicariously. in hope. one wish. a wish. blank. state and still. breathing deeply again.

that warm deep sinking feeling- instruments as clear as the day. heart rumbling with the drums. yearning and yearning and yearning. as confident as you are in sound. i want - in motive. in every two brilliance is made. will the storm ever cease?

soothing melodies wilt my eyes. they were once in seek. over and over, repeat and find. replays my packaged connective tissues as moments intensify. loud vs. soft, then truth intensifies.

some muster up the worst. heartache, love, no longer in existence. reasons represent full forms - those strings, those strings "gather your strength and rise up"

'go' in undertone.

one last piano cord. 

the ending of the song.

From chair to chair

Blue goes black.
Straight to sluggish.

In the corner is that chair, that space where u can hide. 
One time, the covers stretched out long- 
...the cold swept in like a bug buzzing in my ear.

Layer up! and be resourceful - so u barely feel it
I thought I was the only one.
Since time deepened,
3 is the number of inquires to this site
I forgot my long socks tonight.

Safer than roaming, 
lit at best
Though time is creeping by as a caterpillar in transition.

Transition. 
that's what it is - This is
Yawn number 87
I sleep when I feel safe
(frantic eye baiting)

2 more hours of insomnia,
induced insomnia though
Fear sets in- in the wee hours 
...when u sense the shadows changing

--------------
Its like a rotation schedule of chairs
scheduled at this time is . .. 
"not everyone has the chance to be safe"
TIME -  still not on my side

From chair to chair like a missing musical chair.
