SHE SEES YOU

She sees you 
As you burn secrets into her skin
Searing her with your sins and
Sorrows
The scars will never fade.

She sees you 
As you rip the flesh from her 
Bones 
Destroying the very essence
That keeps you alive.

She sees you
As you tear down the memories
Of her most ancient 
Children
She has suffered so much 
And it is your fault.

She sees you 
Through her tears
She sees the 
Wounds
You inflict upon her body 
And her soul.

She sees you 
She counts the hours 
Until she can 
Destroy you
Her patience is unending 
But she has waited too long
She is weary of your greed 
And your ignorance.

She sees you 
She looks past the pain 
Broken promises
Crimes
Bloodshed
Heartbreak
She sees you.
Mother Earth sees all.

    you are not you. 

    you are what i think
    alas i refuse to admit i am wrong.
    what can i say?
    i love this version of you 
    he is kind and sweet and loving 
    so very beautiful.
  • Slippery slope

    The way is harsh
    The light is dim
    And we forget to celebrate love
    Instead condemning faultless faults and forged sins
    We sit in silence
    Festering in our lack of empathy 
    Or we stand and scream because still we are not heard
