Saturday's Expressions: June 1, 2013


“Roller Coaster” April Morone

Frustration
Elation
And everything in between
Happiness
Motivation

And at points, the want to scream
Are the emotions that I’ve felt this week,
From trials
And the tribulations.
I just want some peace-

A break
From a life that seems surreal-
And calmness,
THAT’S what I currently seek
And is what I need to feel

To be off this roller coaster week
From this roller coaster life
By roller coaster people
Who are dramatic
And who cause strife.

So, spend some time with me
And play with me
To have and give some fun
And talk and joke with me.
To help set me free.

Your lips are moist and inviting 
Your kisses so warm and sweet
My heart pounds hard within my chest
You sweep me off my feet

It’s been so long since I’ve touched you
I miss your electricity
You still give me butterflies
Come back to me

Every day apart seems like forever
It’s already been over a year
Being without your touch is hell
I hold you very dear

You said you’ll be here soon
I’m so excited I could scream
I hope we never let go again
You are my perfect dream

LOST


what do i feel?
how would i know. 
watching the daze
come and then go. 

rivers of change 
things stay the same.
no one at fault,
no one to blame.

i feel
old, tired
thread-bare
uninspired.
i don’t care.

do i feel
too much or
not enough?
i cant seem
to sort thru stuff.

like broken dreams
with me awake 
my silent screams 
so hollow, fake...

...it
'til you make it.
that's what i heard.
from here i don’t
believe a word.
i wont. 

i never stopped.
i never quit.
when no one else
gave a shit

i Was a parent. 
now empty nest.
i gave them all. 
my very best.

they, six, now grown.
i, all alone.
they are perfect
i'm a crone.

I feel 
old, tired.
unrequired, 
had the best job, 
i've been fired
by time
and change,
the process of 
growth.
joy and loss,
I feel them 
both.

thru acceptance
i can see
my pain and anguish. 
i can't be
happy caged
or
happy free.
What is to
become of ME...

i feel Lost.
