If I Could Take You Into Me

**If I Could Take You Into Me

I wrote this poem and many others during a time when I was involved with a man who had some commitment problems. He lived with me for a year and then decided to move out while continuing a relationship with me. I went through a lot of emotional turmoil and found solace in writing these poems and performing in open mic poetry readings around town. Oddly enough, that is where I met my husband a couple of years later. The poem is somewhat s*xual, but the underlying meaning is that I wanted that man to understand me. I wanted him to "be inside" of me to understand how I felt.

I Am

**I Am

Like closing my eyes and taking in surroundings Falling into lacey arms Disarmed in the TV shadows Blue lights and monotonous drones of DVD Tasting tomatoes on razor beard hairs Cutting out red tinged blush on my face In this place I am locked

You enjoy torture and inflicting pain.You make it look like im going insane.Some how you manage to remain out of sight.You hide yourself well. Sometimes you can be creepier than anything that could come out from Hell. You give me an evil laugh and a

Rising Moon

Rising Moon

My mood is dark, I’m full of gloom, just like the night, before new moon. Pitch, black darkness, with shards of light, not much joy, but lots of fright. I feel bitter and twisted, like I won’t be missed, if I were to leave, there won’t

The Almond Tree

The Almond Tree.

This is a rather dark piece of verse...the world was becoming evermore nihilistic and decadent or so I imagined in my own perceptions. I used the symbol of an almond tree because it is one of the first trees to flower in the spring and is thus the symbol of re-birth. At first the tree wrestles with fall and winter beneath the watchful eye of the moon...as we are in darkness and decadence...however, eventually all things whether good or evil will come to an end...eventually the sun will rise and even death is cyclical and can be defeated. Only to return to decadence and sh*t. Basically we create our own wasteland...and will continue to do so. But that was only a momentary thought and inspired only these ridiculous verses.
