I know you wish you could love me right
But baby you dont know how
I lost myself in you
Forsaking God and all others
Just to be close enough to catch your scent
Sacrificed my body
For you to treat it as you please
bruised insides
raw bleeding knees
All of these things
I did because you said I was beautiful
Scorpios
Them things are dangerous
I wished you could love me right
I tried to stick around
waiting for a change
But see boys
that grow up to be dogs
Dont learn new tricks
I wasted my time

Smoke

2009-04-17T18:00:00.001-07:00

Sometimes I inhale

to escape my reality

knowing if I continue

That I will become just another faceless

casualty

But still I puff

and still I choke

loosing the feeling of faith

loosing the feeling of hope

life passing me by with the rising smoke

Dreams drift away

with each drag from the roach

Blazing...burning....choking

Herbs...cancer....smoking

I don't know how it started

but I know how this story ends

taken out by a rolled up friend

Hand in Hand

2009-04-08T16:06:00.000-07:00

Hand in Hand

Baby we stand together

Despite the world's hidden hate

If should fall so will I

We are destined to have the same fate

People are always going to talk

And there is nothing we can do

I could care less

The only trust I need is from you

Love we stand together

With all trials beneath our feet

My steps are isync with yours

For it's the same goal we seek

You have helped me put my past behind me

And eased my mind

Helped me get over things

That I thought could only heal with time

Baby we stand together

Despite my past and yours

You are the only one

That my heart adores

I'll put no one before you

And let no one come before me

My vow has to be more than words

I have to make you see, that

Love we stand together

And though we are hand and hand

You lead me

I'll let you be the man

You are my heart

You make me complete

Together we make a pair

That can't be beat

Baby we belong together

Breathing

2009-04-05T11:49:00.001-07:00

I inhale deep

taking in the reality of my life

.....of my mistakes

....of my regrets

you know the

"what i should have dones"

and the

"if onlys"

I wonder what life would be like

if i had only taken that chance

i exhale

Everything that is not of me

that has been poisoning my body for so long

not caring that i never lived up

to their image of me

I am finally comfortable in my own skin

I am learning to

Inhale

and

Exhale

I am Breathing

victim of the past PROTECTOR OF THE FUTURE

My mind knows better than
My body
that longs for your touch
Against the advice of My mind
that remembers how much
Hurt he left behind when he walked out
My body seems to have a damaged short term meomory
or a selective one
It chooses to recall only the only the sugar
the sweet, wet, warm kisses
the hot mad mess
the smiling deep dark eyes
My Mind recalls the before and the after
Remembers when the eyes stopped smiling
And truly became dark
Remembers how the heart
Ached
Remember the sweet perfume
That masked his similar scent
the morning he returned
After that prolonged night
The Mind
The Mother
The Body
The Daughter
The Mother
Protects
The Daughter

I want to be

2009-04-04T21:55:00.000-07:00

I love you blindly

without objection or reason

I'll be here long after tomorrow

far beyond the passing season

my love is strong

but my heart is delicate

I'm the most virtuous woman - proverbs 31:10

you have ever met

along side a man stands a great woman

and here I am strong and tall

to take on the world with you

to take it all

here to embrace your past

to look forward to future plans

here to simply know you

here to understand

to let you know I want to be

more than a woman to you

I want to be your last thought

when you close your eyes to rest

and the one that helps you rise in the morning

that encourages you threw out your day

to do your very best

I want to be that missing piece that makes you whole

the air you breath

the hand that feeds your hungry soul

I want to be

the reality in your dreams

the surprise in your life

that shows you the world

is not always just as it seems

I want to be

the thought that crosses your mind

that brings a smile to you face

and to be where you are

when you go to your peaceful place

I want to be yours

I just want to be

Journey of our Love: Chapter I

2009-04-04T19:25:00.000-07:00

I wrote this piece for the love life. I'll probably mention him...often lol. He is has been my best friend for a long time even before we were in a relationship. He has proven to be a good muse =)

please enjoy

Journey of our love
Chapter I

He says to me
Your love is sticky and slow
I told him
His love is firm and filling
We laugh in sing song sync
Like we always do
And then I began to think
Our love is so much more than physical
His love did not dilute its potent musk
After the lapsing of seven years
Three in which there was no contact only
….pondering
My love was so patient
That I loved him
Pre present and post
His other relationship eras
Hoping and praying
He would awaken
And see me
For the eve woman I was
His love was nourishing
It nursed a woman broken into a corpse
By another man
Back into vibrant health
It navigated threw a weather and worn soul
Plucked out insecurities and massaged away open wounds
With bare god given hands
My love was so sultry
It made him forget all about her
Made him put away that playa
And fall in love with me
Had him driving across countries
Over hills threw mountains
Just to see what real
Thickness taste like
And when he arrived…
His love was so erotic
Had me blushing all in
My face like
Had my tongue tripping over me teeth
To speak like
Had me cooking dinner
Serving it
And chewing
All with in five minutes
It was so erotic
Had me forgetting o had other house guess
Had me groping over his
Clothes like
Had me undressing him
Before we hit the
Door like
Had me forgetting the bed
And bumping and scuffing the
Floor like
It was so erotic
had me calling on
My lord and savior
In soprano alto and tenor
Had me reciting happy endings
To fairy tales in multiple languages
Had my legs kicking
Trying to find footing on a pathway to
Heaven like
Had me gasping for breath
Had me gasping for air
Had me gasping for something
Anything to fill my lungs
And all I received
All I ever received was tongue
Whew!
His love was so so soo erotic
But it was so much more than physical
His love
My love
Is so much more
as our love
Our love is so able
It found us across the world
From one another
Brought us from different
Time zones
Different area codes
Different mothers
Under one heavenly father
To complete each other voids
Spiritually
Watering those places
With like thoughts
Thoughts to bare fruit
To epic tales
Epic tales of lovers
Past and present
Epic tales of
What future lovers look like
It separated us for two wrongs
Joined us together to form one truth
One right
Our love is so able
It connects us
Over oceans and seas
It travels to canyons and valleys
Just so those to parts of this world will witness
Something pure and true
As pure and true
As the first gift given to man
That god called woman
As pure and true as the child she birth called man
Our love is so much more

Poetry

To I have always wanted to write a piece that explains what poetry is in to me. I have been writing religiously for almost 15 years now and i have finally found the words.

Poetry
This is it
These words
Strung together so artistically
To create a child
Named poetry
I want to live it
I want to breath it
Get lost and then
Seek it
press its sweetness to my lips
To swallow
Bringing salvation to those places
Empty and hallow
Let it journey to my womb
And give birth to it
Caress it gently
Nurture it
Smooth my hands over it
As if it is moistened clay
To be th first light
Of brand new days
I will recite its name
Softly enough
For everyone to hear
Let the words bound swiftly threw space
To land gracefully on ears
I want to lift my hands
And hail it praise
Give into it like a lover
Succumbing to the chase
I will let it tickle me
In forbidden
Hidden Places
Wash over me like heat
Resurrecting blissful faces
I want to journey into it
When the time comes for rest
At my last moments
Let it take residence under
My heaving breasts
This is it
A purpose found in a dream
A dream with a truth found in purpose
I want to breath it in deeply
I want to live it

Brief Introduction

2009-04-04T14:28:00.000-07:00

I would Like to start my blog by introducing myself 1st and foremost. My name is Sierra. I am a poet and am currently supporting myself as a provisioning tech. Unfortunately like a lot of people, my job is being effected by today’s economy. My entire work site will be shutting down in a month. As you can imagine I was a little blind sited by this but I am being optimistic. This change in pace has made me revaluate what direction I am taking in life. Being an active blogger is a start =).Lets us see here =).....My passion in life is to be heard. I love to write. Since I was taught that words strung together formed thoughts, emotions, and opinions I have found a home. Writing is my passion and poetry is my art form. I have a strong conviction that this is my birth write. I am always trying to elevate myself and fine tune my skills. I love feed back and I am gracious to criticism. Please do not hesitate to share your thoughts, I am looking forward to them.
