Weapons
CaryJean Nov 2019
Dagger smile and ice stare
Clean the blade with my tears
Never always the same
Even after all these years

Put your sheild up
Use your words as ammunition
I'd walk away glady if I could
Bleeding heart in bad condition.

Love please

Pick a card
CaryJean Nov 2019
Roladex of sins
Muddy water jump right in
Need to be desired
Come on sweetheart
Fan the fires.

Clear View
CaryJean Nov 2019
Looking back
Through shattered lenses
There's now a wall
Where once was fences
Belief system crumbles
Shards of mirror
Admit me wrong
My greatest fear.

Wild Flower
CaryJean Nov 2019
Speak your truth
Call me crazy
Simple mind
I'll be your Daisy.

Lucky Ones
CaryJean Nov 2019
Memories of fear
Slow roll of the engine
Compliments handed over
Creaks of doors

Immature excitement
Buzzed from the risk
Arrival and slow realization
A darkness lurks

Concerned smile
Tiger eyes and reflex
Swiftly save the bell
And make the journey.

Moved by resistance
Accepting of chances
Step foot into chaos
Sleep and face the future.

Tip toeing near the edge
Life lines cast
We were so close to danger
The lucky ones.

Such a Doll
CaryJean Nov 2019
Cracked porcelain
When you're a doll so fragile.
Move quick think fast
The sharp tongue is agile.

Find your way home
Using a trail of heart pieces.
Devise a plan fast
There's no map for this species.

Place your heart on a shelf,
Leave it there for safe keeping.
Life looks so bleak my dear,
Through eyes forever weeping.

Pass me the fix it kit
It's time to hide the cracks.
Exit the shelf space
Never look back

Stay for now
CaryJean Nov 2019
Frozen blades and visible exhale
Shift with the seasons
Fog lifts but turmoil sits
The wind lifts wings
The sun closes eyes
Welcome home

Take a Number
CaryJean Nov 2019
Keep the seat for calamity
Deep deceit for comedy
Smile with bitter eyes
Considered complete Insanity.

Imagine a world where it shows
Your scars and lies
Weigh it on the scales
In the end that's all that matters.

You and your eyes
Transparency manifested
Can't give into to the why me
Brain completely interrupted

Love Song
CaryJean Oct 2019
The tears have dried up
Numbness sets in
Fighting the endless battle
To divide or conquer.

Tornado emotions
Anger hell bent
Abstract distracted mind
Brain completely flooded

Without hesitation
Secret and undeniable
Manipulate me wrong
The joys of the heart song

Adrift
CaryJean Oct 2019
She used to truly believe in love
Now love is like a poison
The word itself sometimes feels like Venom surging outward from the heart.

It's not easy feeling so different.
It hurts to feel so deeply
If Tears left Scars she'd be Unrecognizable

All she really wanted was something Genuine
She desired to be herself with Honesty
She always believed the names people called her, and it defined her.

When it was kind and sweet it was unfaithful
Where there was loyalty there were curse words and anger
When It was good it was great when it was bad it was a bottomless pit

Adrift, she felt Entirely alone,
Surrounded by people.

— The End —
