I woke, startled, from the sound of someone tapping on my window.

At least, that's what I thought it was, before it came from the mirror again.

P. S. Happy Halloween Prose, everyone! Enjoy a spooky evening devoid of clowns and filled with candy!

White lies burning

Over tarnished lips

This agony...

Unmakes me

Beyond what can be fixed

Wounds... never to heal

Pain

Time cannot erode

Yet

How do I live

Bent

Broken

Photographs behind my eyes

What will find

When

You see inside... my mind

The fault is my own

Carrying the past inside

Am I too late this time?

One step from the edge

And this...

Just a worthless rant

A cry for help

Left unanswered

Unheard

Screaming silence

To You !

Dr. Seuss!!

Oh, Say Can You Seed?

I think u r great, straight out of the gate!

So kind,

I've always kept u in my mind &

by my side ...

U r such super fun,

especially with

Thing 1 & Thing 2,

how we would make the

ABC stew & wonder

what Horton Hears A Who?

U r amazing at teaching &

reaching all the impressionable minds ...

With One Fish, Two Fish

Red Fish, Blue Fish, The Foot book full of opposites, &

Do You Know How Lucky You Are?

U were never far,

morning or night,

to show me how not to be afraid of

Green Eggs & Ham or

The Grinch Who Stole Christmas ...

U helped me fall asleep to so many more ...

Hop on Pop, Fox in Socks, If I Ran A Zoo,

& What Pet Should I Get?

This list goes on

Oh, how it goes on & on ...

This 2 U

my Dearest Dr.Seuss!

Loved someone and heartbroken.

Heart broke into million pieces.

Now,

Each piece loves someone.

Breaking a million hearts.

Now,

Each of those heart broke.

Each piece of each heart loves someone.

Now,

Each heart starts from the top.

Breaking a heart into million pieces.

beyond immensity, speechless awestruck words will not define,

thoughts cannot contain infinity

earths by millions cross the scope of width;

the vast wide peninsula of gas where stars are born

quasars in the far beginning of the past, 

they wear and shed marks of creation's hand of divinity for eye of man to see, 

energy acceleration's power emittance at the speed of light

pulsation star sings its song and dances light's vibrations

like mozart's angels of the choir in the chamber hall

for his queen like majesty; it lights the heavens' neon clouds of nebula

palmolive blue, divine lit hue in the deepness of space's oblique uniqueness

interstellar time and distance's dimensions, warp and woof, galactic's paradise

mortal heart's mind struggles to full behold, 

achieve to hold in feeble grasp of thought eternity, forever wonder

it hurts to ponder the avenues of unanswered contemplation, begs sedation

mind over matters so pristine, close to the Sistine aura of reverence

like eyes of God shining through the maw of space and time

sublime in its prime of creations mark, 

expand from pin prick's point of origin 

infinitesimal unimaginably small to burst of universe, 

in the beginning was the word and the word was with God

and the word became flesh and spoke

let there be light; let it burn, 

light man's way in eternal dark to life

there's a portal leads to everywhere; 

close your eyes and take a few steps to the edge

of your universe, 

over the moss and lichen, along the granite stones and boulders

don't look over your shoulder; 

don't look back; 

you'll suffer a heart attack

the green twigs of shrubs contain the whispers of your past; leave it there

no return, gain the ground while it's there for the taking, running wild in the wild

cut the cord, rip the cloth, tear yourself a new one

up the scree through the glacier path ravine that becomes the mother canyon of your dreams

follow up the purple slope, the golden cliffside calls its bluff up the steep sheer sides

into the mountain pass escape, through the void of blue astronomy's hues, 

sky's thin air,

take the leap; 

let it go; 

gravity will catch you and take you to the bottom, then the rise above

soar with wings, the free air thin, breathe from the mountain height 

in the stillness, feel your singleness and your spirit freed

build a fire, make a spire with fiery tongues of flame up high

send the sparks in the night, elevation three miles high into the pitch of night

black blue sky of sparkling, shining white hot stars

watch the smoke rise in the dark, in the cold reach up towards heavens high

now escape into your self; 

ascend to God's own throne

sing his song and his praise; 

talk with Him; 

share your love and concerns

drift off to sleep, 

your soul and heart to keep on this mountain high

She dreamed great dreams.

To soar high in the sky, 

letting the wind blow away all those traumatizing moments in her life.

To kiss the children she always wanted to have, a kiss goodnight.

To save the innocent from the evildoers in the world.

But she could not. 

She was trapped.

At her desk, everyday she wrote.

Because that's all they believed she was capable of doing.

Nobody ever gave her a chance.

No chance to fly, no chance to love, no chance to save.

She was just to write.

He loved my ideas,

but claimed them his own.

He was polite in public,

but I always did the chores.

He said we were partners,

but he never said the word "we."

He loved my body,

but now I realize,

he never loved me.

Horses.

Wild flowing manes,

Tails  dragging the ground,

drafters,

sleek,

riders,

warm-bloods,

connection,

truth,

healing,

emotions,

free,

spirit,

love,

horses.
