A Part of Me

You were a part of me, alive in me Though you held no breath, I held you in my memory I have visions of you, your eyes staring up at me Holding my hand, tightly, hoping I make our dreams come true Gripped onto me, just long enough to make me miss you Wishing you were here so I could kiss you Tell you I love you, cuddle you, and make you smile Share all my stories of things that make life worth wild Would carry you in my arms to where you slept Watch you rest, knowing my pain was worth it My body a symbol of maturity, but not yours You are as still and stagnant as a photograph I wish I could feel you, feed you in ways you needed Nurturing your mind and body to keep you strong spirited Speaking life into your existence, to make it all relevant Giving you a home not within me, but here with me Building up your confidence , braiding down your hair Reminding you that your skin is perfect That everything you have within is magic Teaching you how people should treat you That your family loves you more than her or him But to love yourself more than all of them When times are tough, know you're tougher The sting of betrayal only lasts a little while When you feel it coming to an end, the world is worth staying in It’s up to you to build when things break, then rebuild again Although I can imagine having you, it's not true Remaining in my past was always destiny So far gone, but you'll always be a part of me.

Brujita

Sunrise baths while sipping la canella Sunsets sitting in the corner of la cantina Until the agave turns my blood cold Open fire, shoot me down, kill me with my favorite song Now I’m dancing under the moon with the rest of the brujas Moves like a gypsy dressed like a hippie with a heart made of gold Beware of this smile for it will be the first and last thing your memory will dial Think twice before looking into these brown eyes They see right through you as clear as bright stars in a dark sky My ritual is pure, I do not hex, I do not curse Give me light and I’ll keep an eternal flame Show me kindness and I'll keep you safe But even good witches turn bad, given the circumstance I'll disappear into the woods and prey on evil The things I do are not the things I thought to What once fell dead can return to life Since my mouth holds the sharpest knife I’ll bite my tongue and pray in solitude, instead

Ghost

I so love/hate my ghost Hes's pester, yet consistent With eyes online Unparticipative participant When he watches, I feel connected.

Horns

LIKE THORNS ON A DYING ROSE THEY CUT DEEP CRISP LIKE WINTER'S APPROACH THEY STAND FIRM LIKE DAGGERS IN A BACK THEY SEEK BETRAYAL SHARP LIKE SCORPION STINGERS THEY PIERCE HOPE LIKE CROWNS ON THE ROYAL THEY MOCK ALL VILE LIKE FALLEN ANGELS THEY COAX SIN

Dear Mr. President

do you see your people high off saddness expecting to fail shrinking themselves addicted to sorrow aroused by let downs married to a slow death something has been taken away stolen, hopeless and now they're selling it connected to the source of pain feathing for hurt filling up on empty dreams transmitting gloom into their blood streams indulging in misery woe is the soul that sleeps on your land wanting more.

Said Nothing. Meant Everything.

He said your like Adele, you're the best. Guess he wanted Rihanna's or baby mamas. He said no it was not you, there's nothing you can do. Guess second best was just right for you. He said he's happy, he's having a family. Guess she gave you things, things that I didn't give to you. He said does she have a boyfriend, just asking. Guess the rock you gave her, was a glass ring. I saw you the other day. yeah, I saw you look away, but this time, not having a damn thing to say.

Dear Dreamcatcher, Please allow me to sleep restless, without the thought of a lingering spirit, telling me that there is nothing I can do. Protect my heart and guide my mind, it seems to be beating the drum of old feelings, it hasn't rested with ease since the last goodbye. Driven by a faulted love of the past, the third eye watches the rear-view mirror, my hands grasp the wheel with every intention to stay grounded, but my body floats in between time. Where does my heart go when I am sleeping? ..my darling dreamcatcher take me into a future time where I no longer hold onto things that aren't mine. To a time where I sleep dreaming of peaceful meadows instead unanswered questions. Deliver me from a contract of a broken heart and onto a bed of divine intervention.

Seedless.

You see me. Seamless. Undone. Caught me. Took me high. Looking deep in your eyes. You smile back. Dropped me at my highest. Breatheless. Sunken. Spirl down. Further than you found me. Landed in good soil. planted. sprouting out. I'm better than before.
