Meme - emotional description

So I normally do a small break of sorts during two months of the year from my normal posts. April and November. The reason for this is I am posting daily poetry and the other posts are just a bit much to add on. I will return to the weekly posts in May (Maybe. I am considering doing mermay this year. Which would mean an art post daily instead via instagram links.) Regardless there will be content, just not the Same posts I usually do.

Lyrics –

I shut my eyes
You call but I just cut the line
I know your style
I know that you want one more night
And I’m backsliding
Into this just one more time
Too far from over you
Beams from your M2
Are blowing through my room
And now you
Lay down in my shoes
You dyed your hair blue
Oh, so much déjà vu
And now
I can feel your love
Your temporary touch
It’s a hit and run
You go back there when you’re done
Don’t you want some more
‘Cause I can feel your love
That purple touch
Everyone who sees you falls in love
You eat us up
You live like you’re on camera
You slide on top
A moon to all the juice in us
Too far from over you
Beams from your M2
Are blowing through my room
And now you
Lay down in my shoes
You dyed your hair blue
Oh, so much déjà vu
And now
I can feel your love
Your temporary touch
It’s a hit and run
You go back there when you’re done
Don’t you want some more
‘Cause I can feel your love
Maybe in time
When we’re both better at life
Daylight can open my eyes
And you’ll still be by my side
But meanwhile
I’ve got my contact high
You’ve got your powdered lies
We’ve got these summertime nights
Night by night
I let you eat me alive
I want you to eat me alive
I want you to eat me alive
I can feel your love
Your temporary touch
It’s a hit and run
You go back there when you’re done
I can feel your love
Your temporary touch
It’s a hit and run
You go back there when you’re done
I can feel your love
Your temporary touch
It’s a hit and run
You go back there when you’re done
Don’t you want some more
‘Cause I can feel your love
I can feel your love
I can feel your love
I can feel your love
I can feel your love
I can feel your love

My 2 cents –

my son recommended this to me and it is so powerful.

Involuntary Movements

by Patricia Harris


Remaining still is easier said

than it is for me to do,
I am made of gelatin and
thoughts straight from the
ocean's waves.

Involuntary Movements
are almost expected
when you are as chaotic
as I.

Lyrics –

Another day in this carnival of souls
Another night settles in, as quickly as it goes
The memories are shadows, ink on the page
And I can’t seem to find my way home
And it’s almost like
Your heaven’s trying everything
Your heaven’s trying everything
To keep me out
All the places I’ve been and things I’ve seen
A million stories that made up a million shattered dreams
The faces of people I’ll never see again
And I can’t seem to find my way home
‘Cause it’s almost like
Your heaven’s trying everything
To break me down
‘Cause it’s almost like
Your heaven’s trying everything
To keep me out
‘Cause it’s almost like
Your heaven’s trying everything
To break me down
‘Cause it’s almost like
Your heaven’s trying everything
Your heaven’s trying everything
To break me down
To break me down
To break me down
Your heaven’s trying everything
Your heaven’s trying everything
To break me down

My 2 cents –

with chronic illness hitting hard and sensory overload setting in because of the weather changes…plus I overloaded my work load…I am feeling this song lately.

forgetting

by Patricia Harris


I am working on forgetting
the importance of my life,
for I am more than what I
can remember myself to be.

instead I want to remember
the importance of those I love
and the way I want to eventually be
instead of focusing entirely on me.

Lyrics –

When you feel that rage (When you feel that)
When you feel that rage
We’re the underdogs roaming in the dark
We’re the savages born from worlds apart
Our past has shown just how we bleed
A blind future in front of me
Lost and fractured to the point of break
So come and play with that rage (That rage)
Light a match and reignite the flames (The flames)
This ain’t the end, we’re here to stay
We rush into the unknown
Fearless and brave
So don’t throw it away (That rage)
Won’t stop until sweet victory
We’ve been working towards the goal for most our lives
Every challenge that we faced, we have survived
Our confidence is growing everyday
Finally it is our time to reign
Our past has shown just how we bleed
A blind future in front of me
Lost and fractured to the point of break
So come and play with that rage (That rage)
Light a match and reignite the flames (The flames)
This ain’t the end, we’re here to stay
We rush into the unknown
Fearless and brave
So don’t throw it away (That rage)
Won’t stop until sweet victory
We’re the underdogs roaming in the dark
We’re the savages born from worlds apart
And now I know that this is just the start
We will fight for everything we are
RAGE, that RAGE (When you feel that rage, when you feel that)
RAGE, that RAGE (When you feel that rage, when you feel that)
Rage (That rage)
Light a match and reignite the flames (The flames)
This ain’t the end, we’re here to stay
We rush into the unknown
Fearless and brave
So don’t throw it away (That rage)
Won’t stop until sweet victory
We will go down in history
So come and play with that rage (That rage)

My 2 cents –

I find myself avoiding social media and news…I am enraged at the politics and shenanigans that the government is getting up to. I am scared for those who are endangered by the stupidity that is going on and I feel helpless.

The Past

by Patricia Harris


the past is gone 

forgotten,

repeating.



it leaves so many

feeling defeated.



it is not even happening

in a different way,

the past is gone...

so we will have to

live it all over again.
