Hello everyone. I always hate filling out these things. It never seems like you can explain yourself in text. I believe the only way you can truly know anything “about me” is to actually get to know me on a more personal level. The things that make a person more human and easier to relate to is to know their quirks and passions. What they love and hate. All the little things that make people uniquely.. them. So I can sit here and tell you my favorite movies and music and things that make my heart go WEE! but you’ll never truly grasp any of it until you see it all for yourself. I’m Pagan. I have a beautiful son named Nathanial, born December 2008. I’m engaged to a wonderful man so, when we do tie the knot, I’ll be a Marine wife. He’ll be …

I never thought you could be mine, you see. Just a candy coated apple dream, rolled in rainbow sprinkles. Seems those were our midnight sparks in the middle of that darkened dance floor. The burning taste of forget in that parking lot. You were my secret salvation. High octaned as my favorite Vodka and energy drink. Sweeter than a mentholated pull. You knew all the ways to tickle my heart. To pique my interest. To Tear Me Apart. And here we are. Lying still. Calm. Complete. Breathing hea...

Just hold me close and pretend that you love me. Maybe I'll believe it enough to make it through our February night. Who knows what a bird's chirp and rolling clouds will bring. Maybe this won't just be an orange dream or a damsel pink frustration. Maybe we can live on sunlight and aquamarine. Orchard lillies and the fruit of a honey bee. Maybe we can forget cold caresses and acid kisses. Pretend yesterday only mattered when the bed caught fire. Permeating. Exhilerating. Setting everything wi...

Are we still in love? Some days it seems we try too hard. Pretend too much. Everyone on the outside thinks they see it. I'm the only one on the inside trying to believe it. I think our passion has quelled. Our spark, fizzled out. Replaced with hollowed comfort. You have no doubts I'll always be here. Circumstances forbid my leave. The darkness beside you, turned into my confessional. My tears, prayers you'll never hear. Upon your wake, my sins, swept beneath the rug. Never acknowledged. Never...

I still have these scars left From that dream of you From that dream of you Looking like a bittersweet Adonys Beneath those stormy clouds Wrapped in our own Breathless infatuation Shirtless Lost inside your eyes Can we pretend our secret Doesn't just lie Under the floormat of your car But among the leaves Of those trees beside us? Can we pretend we know nothing Of each others' life on earth Because we are nothing But a dream But a dream Of raindrops And a coffeeshop And too many cigarettes On...

One day I might quit this obsession. Quite sooner than you all think. I'll be free of this box I've imprisoned myself in. And fly higher than you all could believe. I'll let go of these games we play. Left raw and melting in this sunlight. Forgive all the sins of yesterday and reach out to grasp at tomorrow. I'll get off this spinning carousel. Watch blue skies with clearer eyes. My feet will be rooted to the ground as my strength stands the test of time. My voice will be nothing but a whispe...

Well, first off, I thought it had a very nice flow, but I'm not 100% sure what it's about. The first few lines: "Born under dust with the resonance of a supernova, undefined silence now awakening your consciousness, the world welcomes you with a whispered song outlining the blueprint of the universe." kind of made me think someone was giving birth, but after that it kind of makes me think someone is finding themselves as apart of the universe and being in harmony with it. I'm not sure if the ...
I enjoyed the dark feel of this poem. I'm not too sure if it's talking about some sort of self mutilation (that's the feeling I get). My favorite lines are "Her imaginary lovers are ghosts. Her imaginary friends are gods". It's dark and it kind of brings me back to a time of my adolescence where I thought the same of myself. But I like it alot. Kudos!
I liked this poem alot. It kind of made me think that the girl jumped off the roof or she fell. I'm not too sure which but I knew she hit the ground. I liked the imagery "slide scurry slip down jagged hills of brick-red shingling yawning canals of rusted gutter to weakened ground of the valley, the field, the house, the room, the couch" I thought that was really great because I could picture all of that happening but the only thing I couldn't picture was her face and reaction to the fall. Cor...
