Melissa Joy Chesky Poems

Dear God,
I tried to talk to you in a different way.
But I think the Christian Prayer Messaging
Isn't working for me.
...

“Okay, you’ll only
feel a slight
sting as it
moves through.”
...

I knew she wasn't well,
That forgettable 6 years ago.
She would forget dates,
And other minor things of that sort.
...

The fire pulses
Like the many young hearts
Across the universe of tragedy.
And the wind sighs and moans
...

It's just too risky.
Should I tell you my past?
The odds of you leaving
are too great from me to conceive.
...

I want to drink you all away,
All of your words and implications,
The intoxication of asphyxiation
Is too delicious.
...

My last strand of straw has been laid,
My last piece of thread has been frayed,
And everything falls, like glass pricks
As I sink low and defeat sticks.
...

Oh my
It broke.
I look at it on the floor
Its pathetic little pulse
...

In light, I see you at your best
Your bright eyes and your broadened chest.
Your voice is sensual, so craved.
And my heart is so bold, so saved.
...

It’s hard to realize
that you’re the only thing I look forward to.
It’s hard to know
that you’re in complete control
...
