So here we are, just us two,
miles apart,
and I keep thinking of you;
I want to reach out,
for I feel your pain;
I feel your longing,
for mine is just the same
Remembering your voice,
your sweet . . . more

Hungry eyes,
aching heart;
Please go away;
You're tearing me apart.
You laugh,
you smile
with the innocence
of a child,
never knowing
I'm dying inside.

We are all one, we who call ourselves mothers
I was unprepared for the pain as women
No different from myself suffer, and cry
At senseless loss, the deepest grief
The beautiful blonde . . . more

It's so hard to let go
of this wheel that is spinning;
So afraid of the fall;
So afraid of the sinning;
So afraid of the pain
and the look in your eye;
So afraid of the heartache
when I . . . more

Soft as a whisper
you come to me,
amidst the ashes
amidst the tears;
Arms wide open,
my heart is closed,
not quite ready
to face its fears;
I give what I can,
afraid to . . . more

She opens her eyes
to the sun streaming in
and she groans;
Just another day

Bending steel
Unbearable pain
Life goes on
But never the same

Walls close in,
and there is no escape
from this self-induced hell.
Wish I was spry
like the gingerbread man...
Oh, God...I would run away
as fast as I can
and escape . . . more

I wrote this as an aid for little ones that have been molested to feel free to admit the truth. (I had a child in mind at the time.) I tried to speak to some of their doubts . . . more

I toss and turn, but
sleep won't come
to one who is tormented
by the past, by the
demons that won't let go;
I want to rise up,
make coffee, clean something,
wash away the stains of . . . more

I hug my pillow tight
and close my eyes,
remembering
your smile, your touch,
your gentle voice in the night;
I'm so afraid of forgetting
what you sound like when
you laugh,
or the way

The night is long without you
and my pillow is no solace
to the pain I feel inside,
soaking up these tears
that fall from my eyes;
I think of my head
against your shirt, your skin,

Your kindness is killing me;
Why don't you just let me go?
Why must you sugarcoat the bitterness,
make promises you have no intention
of keeping? . . . more

This heart beats,
waiting for love's coffin
which will surely come,
for how can anything so beautiful
linger on?
This world cannot contain it
amidst the ugly darkened doors
which slam shut on . . . more

Who are you?
Haven't we met?
Loved once?
Laughed?
Actually liked one another?
Where did we go?
Was it the ballgames,
Cubscouts, homework?
Your work?
Was it when I
Went back to school?
Was . . . more

When trouble falls soft,
Like summer rain,
There is almost a pleasure
In the strength . . .
The shelter of loving arms;
But when the storm becomes icy, cruel,
The protecter weeps, breaks,
When . . . more

I'm so tired.
Tired of being strong,
tired of holding on,
tired of smiling
to cover up my pain.
I'm so tired.
Tired of holding things together
through any kind of . . . more

I feel so tired,
and these teardrops
won't stop falling;
Nothing is the same
since you're gone.
I look in the mirror,
and its me...just me
standing there,
loneliness my
only companion. . . . more

Night out with the girls, the smile on your face
Hides the pain in your heart, but, I know it is there
One lost soul in a group of eight, whose life is falling apart
A secret shared . . . more
