True story
 Aug 2012 Catie
Me
A sick feeling
reaches up
and crawls out of my throat
its feet still dangling in the middle of me

Pull it out I cant
for it is still tied to my skin

Forget about it
does not work either
for I do feel it with every step.

Time swirls above me
in the dead of coldest night,
when the witching hour brings you
in copper cloud's delight,

So I can feel you moving,
touch the quivers of my skin,
bursting through the cascades
of the naked storm within

Rushing you inside me
pushing deeper,
deeper in,
tasting salt in tongues
when the droplets cleave the wind

And the boundaries
cease between us:
dissolve where sweat begins.
Torrents sweep in waves
coursing through the joining Syn

Face to face we rise
from the pipes of Pan
within
breathing mist together
as the bird songs wreathe
a ring
of foliage and of flowers
around ancient stones
and altars,

Where all the others leave us
their carrion
in the garbage,
we take Raven with us
and soar
above the bloodlines,
the glisten of the kin

Raising new horizons,
we feel the morning spin,
hatching suns beneath us
in the shadow of our wings,
un-folding life together,
ten-folding on forever ...
and ever ...

Within.

how soft the clouds
that touch my feet
as I search for Ignis

Ignis
in the rotting leaves

how cold the soil
against the walls of my lungs
as I dig for Ignis

Ignis
and the Sun

how tight the girdle
around my waist
of roots and earthworm ribbons
as I dig for Ignis

Ignis
displaced

how heavy the dirt
that clings and crushes
skeletal ribs, fingers
clawing clumps and crusts
as I dig for Ignis

Ignis
in the rust

how fine the bone meal
that dissolves in droplets
of sweat in aquifer
as I seep to Ignis

Ignis
and breathing

Hooves, bones, serpent's kiss
pine in the leaves
of Oak:

Scales moss around you,
wood to the thicket of your trunk.

The scar shows in rust,
spirals all along the torque
of my spine.

I wrap myself around you
until blood rushes to trickles
of sound.

I heard a knocking in my mind
Against the cedar door,
Beating, beating as if to find
Something worth looking for.

And as the rhythm proceeded,
The sounds faded into the wind.
It was gone before I believed it,
Yet it stole something within.

I heard the footsteps tread away,
A soft and steady pace,
The shadows cast a murky grey
Upon the would-be face.

Dragging a prisoner's remains
Though no one left the room
For the bounty came from within the brain
And all it's splendid gloom.

As we wait upon the shore,
Looking out at an endless sea.
I stare deeply in your eyes
and all I can see is me.

Across the oceans we will roam,
As we let time pass us by.
For you are all the company
I will ever need until I die.

I embrace the future we have,
As we continue on in stride.
For you are the one I love,
And I am happy to be your guide.

My heart glows at the thought of you,
And it pounds when you are near.
My dearest love, please come with me
On a voyage, far and clear.

With my hand held in youras
And a glimpse of what's beyond.
My truest feelings will always last
Even after these words are gone.
An old love poem I found, it's corny as hell, but I'm still proud that I managed to keep the theme of a voyage throughout without wandering off into abstraction.

117 reasons I’m going insane
117 square feet to my name.
Trapped in an enclosed room;
haven’t been this claustrophobic since I left my mother’s womb.
A wallflower to bloom soon.
It’s never been my aim to be this lame,
but reality and aims aren’t always the same…
