Liar

When I cannot stop
Thinking
Breathing
Moving
To the sound of
Your voice
I try
Not
To
Fall.

Yet time stands
So
Still –
And I present you
With the look
I give when you
Walk into
The room.

I still give you
The smile I
Feel when you
Softly touch
My hand…

How are you
You ask
As I breathe in
Slowly…

I'm doing great
The world is mine,
I wake up to the sound
Of deep…awesome

I was never a
Liar until your
Kiss and now –

I'm lost, forgotten,
Wishing, hoping
Hallucinating –
Taken hostage.

I wish I could say
What is real
When you are here, when you
Ask.

I wish I could
Just say
I'm
In love
Fallen
With
For you.

Confused words I
Keep with me
Caring, needing,
Feelings
Never sleeping.

Yet as you walk away
With a simple step
In the other
Direction –

I breathe again
And hope
This fantasy
Will walk out the door
With
You.

About this blog

Well, I've decided to start blogging my poetry. I don't think the blog on My Space really fits my writing well - and I figure this way, I'll be much more on top of things.

I've been writing since I was 8 years old. I've taken many creative writing classes - but my biggest inspiration comes from real life events, real life people - each thing you read hits home emotionally for me. I only write descriptions of how I feel or have felt - I don't necessarily imagine what it might feel like - because then I don't feel I'd be truthful with my poetry.

Enjoy - and please always leave comments. I love them.
