Aria Siren Poems

Delicate
I fancy myself strong
But I am
Tired
...

You are the color grey
Sometimes cold slate
Sometimes almost blue
But always in an in between state
...

Sometimes
I feel like my mind is
M
e
...

The way that you just
Let yourself
In and out
Whenever you please
...

Dear One, smile
And re-enter my atmosphere
Words haven't been exchanged in a while
I never knew how much love was in fear
...

I suppose I should be greatful
A lesson you have taught
In a manner hateful
Not the way I would have sought
...

Another missed opportunity
Another stolen chance
A page ripped out of the finale
The music lifted from a dance
...

Would it be so unfair
So unjust
To ask you to stay frozen
In your own fiery lust?
...

You chain me
My heartbeat's knock
Ticking
A clock
...

caught in the fog
that separates the distance between us
drowning under waves
waves that stir up trouble
...
