Unsaid

the anticipation of acceptance
the ache for a pounding heart
the comfort in the presence
healing before you start

the parting of full lips
the panting of exhausted lungs
the unspoken feelings expressed every trip
that could never leave my tongue

the peace in the middle of pain
the eye of a hurricane
the edge of going insane
it's like trying to drown rain

the steady thrum of life
the discovery of beauty within
the tugs of pleasure and strife
a fine layer of moisture on skin

the intoxication
the desire
the dread

the pulse in my ears
the ache in my head

a beauty that cannot fully be said

-SaraKate

Some old stuff, Some new stuff, Some broken stuff, Some true stuff!

This is the stuff.. that comes from broken hearts and broken dreams...

People always ask me why I'm so happy, how I can be so cheerful.. this doesn't seem like a post about joy or happiness at first.. so make sure you read the whole thing ;)

"For without pain there can be no pleasure, without sadness there can be no happiness. Without misery there can be no beauty. And without these, life is endless, hopeless, doomed and damned.”
― Harlan Ellison



~Walls~

walls in place
firmly laced
with lies, regrets and wishes

there to deflect
didn't want you to connect
just trying to protect
my heart

with a slow, taunting seep
stealthy emotions ran deep
I never intended to let you in

in my silly little daze
love was all I craved
had myself believing that you might actually need me
conceited, I know
someday I'll muster the strength to let you go

with these ever changing conditions
and your ever changing mind
frequently inquiring
the truth is hard to find

patience is not my state
can't persuade the hands of fate
maybe for love
it is too late

walls in place
firmly laced
with lies, regrets and wishes

-SaraKate

~Ambivalence~

I sit and ponder

the contradictions of my mind

perplexed, truly quite puzzled

was it truth that you shared with me?

was everything riddled with lies?

memories quickly flicker

like an old movie reel

can't even begin to express the way it feels

some images are welcome

others get shoved aside

forgot to buckle my seat belt

on this roller coaster ride

sweet, little memories

drift slowly by

the comforting warmth of your fingers

laced through mine

new memories come

not so sweet

reminding of times

I never wish to repeat

hot, salty tears

quickly streaming down

pail, fragile cheeks

times when your silence

was with me for weeks

some memories

harder to classify

thick tangle of emotions

I resist the urge to sigh

across the room connection

your crystal blue eyes

almost impossible to despise

my heart falters

skipping beats

some days I miss you

some days not at all

guess it doesn't matter

I should just forget about it all

no reason to live in the past

this I definitely know

for some reason or another

my heart refuses to let you go

are you Prince Charming?

is there someone else?

my excitement is building

for whoever you shall be

the moment you sweep me off my feet

I will conquer this ambivalence in me

-SaraKate

~Broken & Beautiful~

they told me

they warned me

they judged me

they scorned me

 

I heard

I denied

I loved

I cried

 

he knew

he played

he wooed

he lied

 

I'm broken

I'm bruised

I'm damaged

I'm used

 

HE's forgiving

HE's redeeming

HE's loving

HE's healing

He saves those crushed in spirit.

Rain On The World With Me

Rain on the World With Me

Resounding Crunch

Pretzels I Munch

Chin Resting Upon My Left Knee

Train Wants To "Marry Me"

Theory Of A Deadman

It's "Not Meant To Be"

Skullcandy And Eardrum Kiss

Music Means The World To Me

Lightning Bolt

Bright And Fierce

Electricity Snatched From Me

Darkness Surrounds

Thunder Growls

Bass That Shakes And Rattles

Ear Buds Removed

Attention Glued

My Gaze Tickling The Window

Drip

Drop

Drip Drip

Drop

A Melodie Softly Ringing

Quite Entranced

I Sit In Awe

Of Nature Hypnotically Singing

How Did I Barely Notice Before

This Free Display Of Beauty ?

Twirling And Singing

Laughter Ringing

Rejoicing With Unknown Praise

Some Appear Weary

Sad, Almost Dreary

And Yet Still

They Are Dancing Along

Drip

Drop

Drip Drip

Drop

A Melodie Softly Ringing

Quite Entranced

I Sit In Awe

Of Nature Hypnotically Singing

Shouldn't We All Be

Like The Rain Drops I See

Quenching The Thirst Of The Undeserved ?

When The World Is Dry

Cracked With Need

Eventually

Rain Always Relieves

Drip

Drop

Drip Drip

Drop

Trickle

Splash

Sooth

Some Are Large

Some Are Tiny

Drip

Splat

Ting

All A Purpose They Serve

Every Single One

Gorgeous And Worthy

Of The Task They Have Received

Come With Me

To Twirl And Sing

For The Same Task

We Have Been Given

I Must At Least Try

To Quench The Thirst

Of This World I Live In

Drip

Drop

Drip Drip

Drop

Trickle

Splash

Sooth

So Many Broken Hearts

Faces That Despise Their Own Reflection

Scars And Bruises

Inside And Out

Many Shapes And Sizes

They Are Precious

All Are Loved

Just Need Someone To Show It

Drip

Drop

Drip Drip

Drop

Trickle

Splash

Sooth

Love And Compassion

Mercy And Healing

Would You Please,

Come Rain On The World With Me ?

Colossians 3:12-15(HCSB)

¹² Therefore, God’s chosen ones, holy and loved, put on heartfelt compassion, kindness, humility, gentleness, and patience, ¹³ accepting one another and forgiving one another if anyone has a complaint against another. Just as the Lord has forgiven you, so you must also forgive. ¹⁴ Above all, put on love—the perfect bond of unity. ¹⁵ And let the peace of the Messiah, to which you were also called in one body, control your hearts. Be thankful.
