We Need Each Other
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ we hold on tightly you and me us and we relating anticipating a change staying the same relentlessly gripped in each others ways and open hands we expand to include our thoughts to include them in us each other we must for every “one” has a double to share in trouble in good times “two” contemplating possibilities will we combine you and me them and me you and them them and they are and will always be … are we all in this camaraderie …. with every eye we see pupils dilating looking closely defining the lines but who can read the silence in rhyme deeply seeking that certain beat to keep us steady because we can never break free of you and me of us and we even if we aren’t meant to be always in harmony there’s too much energy too much time too much space … we need to concede we need to succeed we simply need to be together endlessly ©Athena Rose  03/11/13

Let’s Play
~~~~~~~~~ Always together Is where I see us be The bond between us We cling too secretly We know a good thing When it comes into view And nothing ever deters Thoughts to me from you Through the air and water We’re magically connected And all the signs like fodder Tells us how to reflect this Getting clear of all the barriers That some choose to raise To hinder every challenge Of their 15 minutes of fame It’s obviously and only a game So let’s roll the dice and play And as we outwit our opponents Our good luck will start today Always rely on your instincts As you make your way to me So we can join our resources And pick a brand new team Out with the old, in with the new A fresh mind-set is what we need And together we’ll sing and dance To the rhythm of our very own beat ©AthenaRose  03/11/13 |

Keep Moving On
I feel the world it’s under my feet The firm foundation of its concrete I hear the sounds of music to my ear So many voices perceiving them clear In this time and space I choose to relate We all need love and can do without hate If only our hearts could learn to play along Imagine the beauty we’d see with each song Erasing the ugly we could right all the wrong Looking inside we will explore each possibility Life can be hard without the support we need And we control directions to a certain degree If we crave love we must first learn to give The more that we share the better we live When feelings sense hurt walls we erect Reality of pain we don’t easily forget Mistakes are the lessons we’ll learn Most foolish patterns we'll discern Keep moving past all negativity To see if you can know happy AR©03/12/13 |

I know that things never stay the same
and that we ought to become accustomed to change I know too that to live is to die and before we ever learned to laugh we first learned to cry. Angels hush and silken wings calm me as I listen to them sing. Looking up towards the sky I shoulder this life and know that I must continue to try. Up towards an ever saving grace step after step in even measured pace the load is heavy and I am weary beset on every side from dangers of which I am ever leery I rail against the unknown wanting only to go home wishing there was someone by my side a hand to hold to guiding me to that wide blue sky |

Thank you for sharing this, and giving me the opportunity for deeper contemplation... to see the irony... those who think they know everything, know very little instead... vs. to see the true essence of life, one need only look through the heart with an open mind, and not with the eyes of bias or pride... |

Change is Coming
********************** do you feel it too change is coming soon who knows how lives collide why strangers can see eye to eye when an old "goodbye" is a new "hi" cause and effect is karma’s true vibe be careful what you wish for I hear my subconscious warn then she nudges me to unlock my door you’ve been down this road before she whispers while trying to implore love is… and can be real and it’s what you need you really need to heal how long will you keep waiting patiently as each memory fades there’s another ready and willing to take its place life is a foot race between time and the empty space voids only deepen the longer we hesitate if we have love we should keep it if we sow love we will reap it for now I lay my old life on each line releasing my soul in music and rhyme as my future reaches back to take my hand it guides me to the new me that I am nothing and no one can change my path with each step forward I’ll refuse to look back and yesterdays story will be the remains of the past  AR©03/13/13

I'm Cursed!!!
*************** This is just too creepy I can’t write When you’re watching me Self consciousness defeats my inner spirit If there’s a voice I just can’t hear it Well… I do But there are too many Not all are friendly And each wants to be first To quench my tongue’s parched thirst Selecting one Makes my head and heart hurt Choosing wrong Makes me feel even worse So I stumble along Falling over each verse Closing an opening Beginning at the ending I understand now, I’m cursed! It’s only your face In front of me It’s only your voice From my fingertips heard Obsession Once again Is my reveling As my focus becomes blurred All I can think now Is to keep breathing Inhaling and exhaling our spirits igniting The fire that burns our scarred minds Keeping us blind To the void we deny Opening our eyes to the new love We find In each others life Where we’ll always be Because I’m the one for you And you’re the one for me  AR©03/13/13

I Don't Play Head Games
****************************** all I want is someone who wants what I want from the other one too I’m not being arrogant thinking first about me because I look at love and life philosophically what’s good for me is gonna be good for you when I give my heart you get the rest of me too I cherish and nurture what and who is mine but I refuse to be used that’s where I draw the line therefore whatever you dish out is what you’re gonna get so make sure you can swim before getting your feet wet I love a good challenge but I don’t play head games when it comes to real life we both pay the same and we’re not going to gamble what we don’t want to lose so before we commit let’s test the waters we’re diving into by being completely aware of our personal limitations it allows us to envision the future without unreasonable expectations we won’t live in the past either where memory ghosts dwell any baggage still left there will have to be expelled and we don’t need a lecture on minding our P’s and Q’s because we’ll acknowledge in advance that we’ve already paid our dues so let’s move forward with interest piqued this way and we’ll have our happy tomorrow by leaving behind us yesterday Athena Rose © 03/13/13 |

We Learn and Grow
************************ from within she unfolds the simplicity to behold even foretold with elegant perfection… as she embraces her dissection even her correction with her presence seemingly undisturbed she bandies nary a word in anger or remorse reflecting instead on the absurd… scandals evolve… resolve hearts assume… resume each in its own melody caressing and sweet or… in melancholy from it’s own memory irked… yet replete with love voices sing, ring sharing everything… and… when emotions tide rises high we question why ride each side then decide who… or what is right truth… we can’t deny before our eyes we pry we lie we cry we try we die when we’re alive… we experience everything eager to thrive wanting to survive we rely on chemistry on honesty on what we see this we believe for security… basking in the purity of our convictions obsessed in our addictions and the ramifications of our actions that meet with satisfaction… in all things big or small short or tall when our backs against the wall we come out fighting igniting wronging rights righting wrongs… together we measure with pleasure the strength of our weakness so we can learn and grow… Athena Rose © 03/13/13 |

re stranger danger exc. point too many actors in this world hiding behind pretty words Yes... powerful words, like love and marriage... people just tell us what they think we want to hear, or whatever will get them what they really want from us.. or maybe we don't really know what love is, but it sounds good and feels right to say it to certain people at opportune times... I don't know anymore... thank you for taking the time to read my work... and for giving me your thoughts on it... I do appreciate your interest...

****************** YOU……. are my first… my virgin ingenuity YOU take… I can’t fake excitement… I give it away eagerly freely and YOU take ME… marry my soul YOU…….. protect and respect never neglect… I am so happy YOU are YOU and I am ME alive on the precipice ……… on the very edge I CAN’T GET YOU OUT OF MY HEAD! day after day entranced calling your name… then suddenly a whisper on the wind catches my ear and this is what I hear… “we’re playing a game”… “and you’re it”… ARE WE? AM I?............ just a pawn on this board of your life to use, abuse and amuse…. YOU! or am I the queen with free reign and skill moving in closer until… you’re king backs into a corner GAME OVER! …………………………….! Unwilling to accept defeat unchallenged… YOU come back for more this time… with your influence to control my fate YOU urge ME to play with your superior intellect hunting ME down following ME around YOU capture ME! isolate my knight in shining armor doing to me all manner of unspeakable things indiscreet… taking everything from ME until in the silence I feel such hate slapping ME in the face... opening my eyes I have to cry for only a moment though because now my part is over so………… it’s the end of the show… “Closed Caption” Copyright© Athena Rose 12/08/12 |

I don't know anymore... thank you for taking the time to read my work... and for giving me your thoughts on it... I do appreciate your interest... i wish i had extra time to read all your work i wish i had some of your gentle tact to modify my blunt sarcasm.i hold a deep unabiding hatred for those who abuse thier authority and/or others rights.as i have a personality that could very easily fit in that catagory without a constant guard i readily see through the nice packaging many people use to hide the product.i very like the work you do that helps remind me of my imperfections..thank you for sharing your wisdom |
