"Try Sarah. Just try to be happy."
It's like trying to have red hair.
No matter how long I stare in the mirror
and try to make it red
it's still not.
WELCOME
..and here are a few things to keep in mind:
This blog contains mostly my poetry and a few thoughts from time to time. The thoughts will be entered when and wherever I feel necessary to keep things in proper order. Thoughts and things not belonging to me will be denoted with asterisks. Poems will be archived by the date which they were written, not by that which they were posted. I tend to update things a month or few after being written so as to keep current issues from wandering unattended around the web.
Enjoy...

“The difficulty of literature is not to write, but to write what you mean; not to affect your reader, but to affect him precisely as you wish.”

They are Angry
I know how it feels now
So utterly alone
(With) No one to call
I Understand
I don't trust them
They don't need to hear
They won't listen
They are angry with me
Who does this leave me to talk to
I need to take a shower & calm down.

How Can I Not
I have nothing to write
I'm confused
but I know how I feel
"Drifting between How can I
and how can I not?"

New Shopping Philosophy
I will no longer shun mainstream fashion solely on the basis of it being such.
If I do not like the item, I (obviously) will not buy it.
However, if I do like it, I will buy it, and will proceed to laugh at all the other self-declared "non-conformists" as they gawk at me in my newly purchased gauchos.

Tension
I have such a strong sexual tension in my body
I'm not horny
I don't want sex
I want to be touched & held by one I love
by Him.
I yearn for him.
I have not seen him
touched him
kissed him in one week
My body wants him
I can't think straight
I can't focus
My body is rigid and tense
One touch.
One touch is all I need and I would melt in his hands.
I would surrender myself to him
and his advances
until I regained my right mind
Then I would stop him
push away
and
turn over
Just to lay with him
next to him
Be with him.

I Think Too Fast
I may have slipped
I may have fallen
Maybe I shouldn't have said
But (I think) I love you.
