My Heart

I look in your eyes

And they are deep blue

Your gaze has me wondering

Do you want me to?

I've given you my heart

Which you hold in your hand

You toss it and twist it

Where will it land?

Beginning to wonder

What can I do

To keep my heart safe

Should I save it from you?

You used to deserve it

Now you dont

It's broken and hurting

Just set it afloat.

Give it back to me,for me to regive

To someone who will love it

With all that they have

Someone who will hold it with strong,gentle hands.

 

Poem By Tammy C.

Where Pain Used To Be

I wake up bent like a willow

after having surrendered to you

thoughts that once I didn't have

grew into thoughts I pushed away

but later became thoughts I spoke to you

and you devoured them

We were tangled so tightly

I didn't know where I ended and you began.

I was the drop of rain running down your neck

across your shoulder and down your back

and your skin responded with a quiver.

And now,

no breath remains

my love stripped bare

and everything I am rests within your hands.

The sky opened last night and drenched us

with everything we knew lay behind the wall of fear.

We discovered that our souls  were made for each other.

We forgot in those moments everything we were afraid of

and where pain used to be

now there are butterflies.


Poem By Tammy C. 

Plastic People

One by one 
they step out of their mold  
looking all perfect and cute 
the hair  
the clothes  
the body that makes you count  
the rest  just sit 
and watch them  
parading past  
in their new designer suits  
like life sized robots  
taking over the scene  
who's who? 
what's the difference?  
I can't tell 
they're just plastic people  
living in their own plastic worlds  
synthetic faces
synthetic bodies    
synthetic love  
and they all fall in line  
one by one  
here and there  
they call us the posers  
the popular wanabes  
they laugh  
because we're different  
we laugh 
because they're all the same.

Poem By Tammy C.

Locked Away

Who knows what
Might have happened
If you loved yourself enough,
No to need to keep proving
You still possess
This mysterious "it".
Your ego brush-stroked
Again and again
"You are handsome"
"You are passionate"
You are the tormented
Darkness that is scared
Of being broken.
So you keep yourself locked alone in fear.

 Poem By Tammy C.

Yearning for Simplicity

My heart is like a child most of the time,
tired and hungry with an orphan's cry.
Reason pleads to numb the past,
Yet time and time again I've mended breaks,
So a cuddled dream in my soul quakes,
"Oh to be free of complicated sorrow,
And not wish for a saviour for the morrow.
Oh to wake with a simple smile,
And gaze at the sky an endless while".
Poem By Tammy C.

Last Sigh of Evening

Oh send me out sailing
Or to capture a thought
Rowboats are rowing,
In a circular spot
The spirit’s not quelled,
Or even distraught.
After noons and good evenings
of imagined farewells,
such is nary a thing that was never for naught.
Because life is a rondo, structured and sweet.
Tormenting passion comes ‘round, takes a seat.
Sun, moon and stars cause predictable scars
on heavenly bodies, full and complete.

A superior night is in sight,
the moon remembers its place.
The last sigh of evening fades off into space
and I no longer know you in the dark on repeat
while the stars wink and freckle and speak.
Poem By Tammy C.

Classic tragic scene

She rides her bike down country lanes.
The sun shines down upon her pain,
Clouds go sailing in the sky,
Under the bridge, a train goes by,

She thinks 'bout ending it all there and then,
But something makes her think again,
Of all the summer days gone by,
And of these things that make her cry.

And she is falling, falling,
Tumbling through her days,
Her life at an end,
Wasting away,
Her powers of reason in desertion,
Cast adrift in some great ocean.

So with the sun behind her back,
She looks down, far along the tracks,
Her shadow falling from the sky,
And her empty hopes they fill her eyes,

Her lips garnished with the salty taste,
Of all the tears upon her face,
Her heart wishing he was there again,
His arms and smile to stop the pain.

And she is falling, falling,
Tumbling through her days,
Her life at an end,
Wasting away,
All powers of reason in desertion,
Adrift and tossed on some great ocean.
Poem By Tammy C.

Fall of Fall


I mourn you,
crushed beneath my foot
in a hundred fragments,
an undignified demise.

I did not want to be the one
responsible for your final minutes,
could not help but pause
and wish for a quick fix
to return you to your former glory.

The best I can do
is remember you fondly,
waving to me
like a wink in the breeze.
Poem By Tammy C.

Live vs Death

September heart
But warming starts

If Woman's Life
Her love a knife

Warm earth is she
Beneath the tree

With tender starts
September hearts

 

 

Without the summer’s foolishness
And green pervades a blessedness

Man sometimes finds his half a whole
That carves his heart another role

And fecund ground lies waiting there
Sweet fruit in autumn waits to share

And timid touch does not drawback
Find kindred eyes when looking back

 

Now autumn calls
To earth he falls

And lives to die
And heals thereby

For seed and rain
By thorns and pain

When flames ablaze
Into her gaze

Poem By Tammy C.

Standing in the rain.

Wondering why I’m here again,
If I will be here forever.
I’ve lifted myself back up a million times.
My life is a long story.
I should know. I wrote it.
So, here in the rain again.
I’m wondering where, how, or when It’ll change.
