The Other Woman



I am she
The reason for your tears
The cause of your headaches
I am she
I keep him warm-in
Your absence
Is my presence

Age Steps




The steps of growth
Line up before me.
I am not far from the bottom.
Neither am I afraid of  heights 
But these steps make me dizzy.
I just scaled through some fears
And I am still breathless.
The climb stretches further than my eyes
Or mind can see.

Hopelessly Hopeful



I am hopelessly hopeful

A hapless daydreamer
A believer of things that may not be
Christians call this faith
I am one and I know I am too fearful to have it.

Opposites Attract




We are polar opposites
You are brave as a lion
I am timid as a sheep.
You can devour me in one look
And in your gaze I melt like chocolate.
