Secret Yellow Rock Chick Poems

Shut my eyes tight
in a blind world now.
Fingers in my ears
in a deaf world now.
...

I am forever falling
in this dark, bottomless chasm.
All hope of those who would help me
peer over the top.
...

Be the tall mountains on land
Be the crashing waves in the sea.
I know you are my lover
Come out and say it to me.
...

Stars are
Heaven's streetlights
Campfires of the past
fireflies stuck in a black net
...

You kissed me one morning
and I pulled away
How was I supposed to know
that you'd be gone the next day?
...

I look all around me
standing on the moon.
I leap into the sky
Hoping I'll land soon.
...
