Hope and the Blues
Sat alone in the quiet tickling the ivory until something that sounded like the blues filled the air Cigar smoke reached for the sky as bourbon and too much time kept me company Note after note sweet as the dram in my glass and as sorrowful as the emptiness of my glass capture winter like a song cold cold cold memories of you and I Can't escape this rhythm the night right now sings to me like a thrill that's gone and I keep holding on and hoping I keep playing on and hoping for tomorrow's sunlight |

Live and Love to Tomorrow
I was thinking about tomorrow how we embraced the moment as if it and we were meant to be It seems so long before we reach what dreams could be tomorrow as we live and love right now in this rare moment called today Where memories feel as if time is moving forward taking us to every shade of sunshine and midnight Destiny finding solace in the rhythm of life where we live love and make new memories tomorrow |

Fragments
Moments float like bits and pieces of possibilities told on different tomorrows complicating every new yesterday Yet like a dark sunrise we are the same me the same you the same things we do only bits and pieces of the same story with no new memories to changed today Living as an incomplete puzzle fragments of joy and pain strewn about like bits and pieces of every conversation we stopped having the border was set long ago yet there is still no picture of a better tomorrow |

The Emptiness Between Dark and Light
Darkness whispered "I love you I love you I love you" so many times that you wanted to believe it was true Soft and gentle like a devoted lover yet as silent as loneliness because his devotion is to her his love is for her and his lies are yours for forever leaving you drowning in a thirst for more and try as you may you cannot escape through the open door his words sees your beauty yet the mirror tells you that you are only worth the love within his whispers "One day baby I just can't leave her now but we'll be together soon" It feels as if you exist as a prisoner of passionless desire where your weakest moment is your only moment of clarity strangled by a love that won't let you breathe inhaling the nothingness of reality exhaling until your lungs are as empty as your bed and you wonder silently will he leave her as you fall asleep hoping to dream that he is holding you until the morning light |

A Moment of Clarity

Green jaded filters do not color my vision, in this moment. I see you as you are, and the magnificent beauty of your imperfections wells my eyes with joyful tears. Billowing red flags do not enshroud me, in this moment. My unbound arms, are opened to accept, and embrace you, exactly as you are. No cotton string attaches a price tag to my heart, in this moment. It would be an honor, and soul-soaring reunion, to freely share, loving energy with you. I must apologize for I used this poem as inspiration for one of mine. I simply find your work to be great and well, thank you for inspiring me. Love this poem |

Hate
I hate you because I love you and I know you don't love me anymore I hate you because the only thing I ever wanted was tomorrow with you and now tomorrow is simply another moment without you This hurts so much love and everything it's supposed to be and what it is right now for me alone So yes I hate you |

Open My Hand
I reach out grasping for the wind in hopes of capturing just an inkling of hope to hold as tightly as I possibly can so that I could believe the impossible That I could breathe again that the nothingness of the air could be held as tightly as the love that was no longer there I want to be foolish but I know that should I open my hand it will be as empty as my arms that once held her it's just that I need an inkling of hope |

Deep Waters
Rippling waves flow like thoughts in and out of my soul without rhyme or reason words in need of a shore to rest upon It feels as if I'm drowning in silence not sure if it's the ocean stretching from day to day or simply my tears without an outlet to scream So I write poetry introverted compositions that serve as my life preserver |

She is a garden I treasure, With fresh white roses as her presence, Holding the fragrance of kind words even at times of my anger or stress, A bliss she is, her smiling dew drops glitter like diamonds on her roses of trust on me! She holds the softest grass in her garden when she accepts me as I am, Making me realise myself in the most secure place for the trust I have on her while I reap the blessings of her affection consistently! π€ Green trees of her nature gives me the shade of wisdom in realising the gifts I am blessed even while facing the worst of problems! My life, she makes each day, So calm through her selfless nature, β€ In making me realise the value of myself! Each day brings joy for me, π₯° Today is more special as I celebrate my precious garden's birthday, β€ As a sister or a reliable friend, With her alone, I never need to prove each day on the responsibility I have for her, For she gives me the space to be myself, π¨ While understanding me through my efforts! β A precious garden of mine is SHE! My dearest Nicole, my lovely sister, my best friend, β€ (( Happy Birthday to you π₯°)) - Aatheera {Lovely Nicole - May you have the best of days with good health and peace forever, Love you my precious Sister β€} Refreshingly beautiful |

Medicinal Lie
My veins cry from the burning torment of the medicinal lie that ravages the emptiness of my soul I pretend itβs an elixir healing me as I escape gravity while still grounded within the nothingness that led me down this road Lost within a lost journey begging for someone to help me walk the twelve steps back to where I first started so that I have the courage to say no |

Artistic Possibilities
If only an artist could paint the future every color of curiosity blending colors ideas and desires so that the abstract world becomes life's masterpiece Or maybe an author could use the empty pages of expectations to write a story about a dream for a new day being as beautiful as we want our reality Imagine a musician inspired by the sound of the morning sun burning tiny droplets of dew used each glistening blade of grass to write a song about love abut life about the artistic possibilities of what tomorrow could be |

Never Real
It is a relentless mist falling like a subtle reminder that the storm has yet to pass Its whispers reveal the sound of the thunder that tears me apart as if my soul's thirst needed to be quenched by a never ending pain Love unfair are the secrets that fall like raindrops from the heavens muddying trust with the confusion that exposes the roots of forever It is a relentless mist that reveals the darkness once painted so beautiful by the light of not knowing it was never real |
