About Me

My photo
I'm outgoing, accepting, funny, wise, random, creative, deep. "I am intricate simplicity" I am my own individual, and refuse to follow the mainstream of the majority. I don't like being restricted by labels.... I'm just comfortably me.... I love to write poetry because it defines who i am. I love to write about whatever life throws my way. I write about how i feel and about how other's feel, most of the time when i'm writing it has no relevance until sometime later..... I guess u can call it writing ahead of my time

The City of Rome (2007)

She’s lost in the city of Rome ……
Wondering the streets without a heart to call home

I sit in the shadows and watch her….
And I wonder if she feels my presence…
I wonder if she knows that she is not alone….

She’s lost in the city of Rome….
Wondering the streets without a heart to call home

She cries in the rain so her tears can blend….
Drenched with tears of agony she keeps her pain suppressed deep within…
And yet she wanders….

And still I sit…
In the shadows and long to touch her soul…
And I wonder if she knows…
I wonder if she knows that I’m here

She’s lost in the city of Rome…
Without a heart to call her own…

She exposes open cuts and bruises to her heart
as she thinks she’s walking alone in the dark…..

In this city of Rome she roams and wonders how much longer she can take being alone…
As she glances at the ruins to her left and right…
I quickly slip out of site as she continues to struggle with her emotional life hidden deep within…
The life to her that isn’t quite right

She’s lost in the city of Rome…
Such a beautiful city created from destruction…
So fragile and frail
But yet it still stands…

She whispers
“How come no one bothered to fix this?
How can someone possibly fix this?”

And I whispered with the wind…
“Because this way you’re beautiful”

She’s lost in the city of Rome
And doesn’t know that she has my heart to call home…

In the shadows I sit and wait…
And I wait until the day she wanders my way….
My biggest flaw is that forever isn’t promised….
But my best eminence is that happiness is guaranteed…
In the shadows I wait and hope that I am what she needs…

She’s lost in the city of Rome….
And I wonder if she knows that she has my heart to call home….

She whispers to herself again
“ How come people continue to destruct and never fix?”

and I whispered with the wind
“Because this way you’re beautiful… This way you’re perfect…
There’s no reason to fix this…. Just reason for me to preserve it with a kiss”
