Every year my employer offers free flu shots. I work for a large health insurance company. I believe that they want to keep us well, so we will not miss work. They hire . . .

I feel like
crying tonight
just to let go.
Been holding on
for too long now.
Time to release.
Time to forgive.
I feel like
hiding tonight
just to be alone.
Been playing . . .

Most of us promise ourselves that we will never make the same mistakes as our parents, yet we grow up and almost by osmosis, we start becoming them. We end up transmitting to our children the same . . .

Wrapped
inside your arms
and I'm
Flying
in a dream
Envisioning
misty blue clouds
Encapsulating us
taking me away
Encompassing me
with warmth
Opening my
eyes to old possibilites . . .

Walls of armor
fortressing your heart.
Afraid of letting go
of that shield of protection.
Cold and alone
in your dark
lonely refuge.
Safe,
So you think.
It's trapped you.
Isolated you from . . .

No space
in my mind
is void
of you.
You permeate
every pore
taint memories
with terror.
What if
I could
wish you
away?
Can I take
an eraser
and rub you
away? . . .

This is not the traditional tribute to fathers, but you see, my father was far from traditional. My father was abusive verbally, emotionally and sexually. He was diagnosed bipolar, . . .

My son has been doing really well, and has not been in any trouble since he got home. (Woo hoo!!) He is a seventeen year old just medicated bipolar, so life is not perfect. . . .

You had the power
to crush me
bring me to my knees.
You used to have
a grip on me
No one would believe
You used to stomp
on my spirit
never let it soar.
You . . .

Turn it off
it makes too much noise
the tape plays
over
and over
and over again.
I can hear it
all the time
everywhere I go
Even in my sleep
I hear your voice
telling me
I'm stupid . . .

He came
like a theif
in the night
and stole
pieces of me.
leaving a mask
to wear
in return.
Veiled in silence
I search for him
only to find
imposters donning
his disguise

I am waiting.
resisting the urge
to peer through
the window
of your day,
while I wait for you.
You unlock the door,
peel off your mask,
nestle into your pj's . . .

I feel you hiding
despite the distance
guarded connection
the pain so intense.
open for just a moment
a vice grips my heart
sent as a warning
for some time apart.

changing form

adapting to
unseen forces

sometimes violently
thrashing with electricity

I knew
the moment
we met
our spirits
would intertwine
a connection
beyond the physical
an understanding
of souls.
I knew
the moment
you spoke
that we
did not need words
