I know your way, Love
Hunt
Running the heartbeat
The song of blood
Hearts beating
One final time
Before the offering to life
Live
Fight for it
Blood spilt in desperation
Moments I hold you
Licking our wounds like wolves
Heated breath upon breath
As we again surrender to life
Forest
Sanctuary and enemy
The blaze of your eyes
The mother of the land
The father of the hunt
Lover and traitor
Sky
Our house is the greenness of spring
The pleasure of summer
Gifts of autumn
The cold dead of winter
And in me
All paths lead to you

You know those days.
Yeah, Those Days
When you stand naked before the mirror
and stare
and say:
"Who are you?"
"What did time do to you?"
"Where did I go?"
Today might just be one of those days
Today is a chocolate bar
dipped in solitude
with sprinkles of self-conscious
disgust
And
between all the men whom I love
and all the men who love me
there is no one who have time for me today
It is such a strange feeling
"I need you"
How hard is that to understand?
But then they are all
too busy,
too occupied,
too tired,
too lazy
It is such a strange feeling
"I need you!"
How can I say it clearer?
It makes me l
Should I fall behindWhen I cry tears for nothingShould I fall behind4 years ago in Free Verse More Like This
- soothe my heart
When I drag my feet
- pick me up
When I attempt to fly
When I fail, and fail again
When I sob and scream
- wipe my nose
When I am selfish and sad
- cradle me
When I cannot hold the pen
When my words fall crippled to the paper
And when I fall behind
- carry me

Do not ask me
Hammer on the anvil
forging hate
I do not remember why I never cared
Do not ask me
Needle and a thread
sewing my skin
I do not remember if I ever loved
If I ever felt warm
If I ever hungered
hungered
for more than I was
I remember my name
Do not ask me
I will not give it away

how you watch as I stumble
fighting to understand
But there are different beings in me
those who hold me from being
my uttermost
I hold my breath for the day you will be my rock,
not the storm.
A heart without a beatIt was a grubby little town, much like any other on this side of the mountains.A heart without a beat4 years ago in Fan Fiction More Like This
The young priestess sought shelter from the rain in an inn, together with several other members of the Alliance. She talked to no one, but listened.
She was good at listening, that was what she had been taught by her old and blind trainer; listening, and keeping your mouth shut until there was something worth saying. She wasn't always good at living by it.
Beatrix had always had a natural talent for magic, and her kind and gentle manner had early on marked her as a good candidate for the priest class. She was small by growth, fragile by nature and spoke wit

I want to peel you like an orange
Carefully exposing the softness beneath
to my fingers and lips
Watching as your beauty unravels
upon my breath
I will strip away
till I find that core
to hold it in my hands would be murder
by ecstasy

just across the road
and I felt the age come between us
the road come between us
this line come between us
So I stay,
in my selfishness,
scrubbing down windows
and watching the small fishes
dance
Because
at this particular moment
I cannot carry you
So I stay,
in my selfishness
locking winter into books and pages
walking with my eyes
half-closed

It doesn't need to be complex
If you say:
"I missed you"
No explaination attached
I will know
and it will make my heart beat
again
I missed you too
by the way

once and for all:
I am a witch.
Hedge witch
Forest witch
Little witch
I don't dance around in the forest
I do my magic behind closed doors
I don't advertise
I know the power of ritual,
of words,
and objects,
but have you ever tried
bringing a baby into this world
with a fancy silver knife
and laced gloves?
Two worn hands,
an old pair of scissors,
are good tools
There are no neon signs outside my tent
no crystal ball
no shiny lights
I can tell your future in the water of your eyes
Put your hand in mine
I will read the lines
the feelings
the length of your fingers
and know you
Give me your hand

all will end
It is a mask that you are hiding
on the inside of your skin
But when you lose that smile
don't give it away
don't take it away
don't let it wither
let me have it for safekeeping
into all the tomorrows
all the dawns
I face with my face hidden in my palm
