Jodilee Duke Poems

i can't feel me without you
inside you are, inside all of me
there is not side stepping
there is not even an excuse
...

there's this feeling in me,
one that comes up from my feet..
it always has this fast contain'd beat...
not sure of its origin,
...

all day long
under my bed
in a bowl
on vacation
...

someones banging on the door
sounds like something i've heard before
i sit here and wonder why they came
i wont go answer the door, what a shame
...

What ought to be is a happy me.
Yet l cannot seem to get that part out.
l wish l could,
therefore you would see,
...

What ever may be,
may be,
Yet
when it comes to me,
...

The chalk...may have, washed
away-
but, the memory...will
always stay.
...

I feel
so tangled
my innards
want to come up and out,
...

lonely
just plain lonely
pictures have left me
to be still
...

As I step outside the air,
I can hear the whisper of lovers.

Rolling within a hide away,
...
