Alicia Erickson Poems

I woke up to his smile and a good morning blessing

Methinks he believed I would get up and run, but I am just guessing
...

It is I, myself, that I percieve as a coward. cowardence is wat is me.I am nothing more then a lowly coward, who can't evan face her own mind let alone her feelings.
And what is it that I feel?
Anger, jealousy, longing, lust, dispair, fear and hunger.
Angry at myself for my actions in the past few days
...

I can’t breath. I am trying, but I can’t.
My breath comes in as short ragged gasps
My hands start to shake uncontrollably
I’m cold.
...

She has a victims' list but her weapon
Is Luv 'n Lies not guns or poison darts
Lies of devotion, loving its commotion
Her grace is her sin, too dangerous to be let in
...

The Stars and the Moon
Came Down Too Soon
And I dance the Dawn away
Picked a Flower
...

Thirteen years old I wanted to know love,
God saw my need and sent an angel from up above
We danced awhile along that ol' mile
And for some time i could smile
...

The stars and moon will see the dawn
Surly a Queen will be transformed from a Pawn
The night is quite beautiful, I know
And it has been my shelter in the deepest low
...

So I had a friend, I loved him to peices
We could talk for hours, mostly about feces!

I thought him quiet fine (in a non-interesting way)
...

I sit here trapped
I feel like I'm walking
The lonely pace of a Tiger
I hate this cage
...
