While cleaning up my documents, preparing to begin writing a new story that is called (working title) 50/50, I found some poetry from 2005 that I am pretty sure is mine. I will not edit, since I am no longer that person anymore.

Flawless
Ideal love of the heart
Perfect dreams in tact
Ultimate sacrifice of time, self, and skill
Impeccable Outcome
Not to be denied

I want to
Not be denied
I want to
Live in the light
I want to stop making the damned sacrifice
Losing self
Losing soul
So that another selling can thrive
This place to be
Day after day
Does not belong to me and mine

Sew what you can
Earn what the Earth provides
Is all apart of an honorable design
Taken to the day’s extreme
My soul divides

Achievement
Between the day and the night
I sing to my child
Put him comfortably into his bedroom
Read to him
Talk with him
Comfort him
I would always be within the tiniest of quests
Through the living room, his little feet could wonder
Finding me in my deepest slumber

Each night before I slept
A promise to myself, I forged
With pen in hand
I opened my mind, pointed to the path,
Letting it proceed onto the pages
The only fear I knew was in completion
Good enough for me was my goal of perfectionism
Peace in my heart with a good job done
It’s the best that I can and always will accomplish
To be an artist who is a good mother, is and always will be my most complete wish.


Salvation!

Raise hope beyond reason
Disregard falicies of truth
Hold your own place
In this world of your own definition
Make it a home for all to find comfort in
Today tomorrow and the next day


Within this calm
We are alive
Hope is our fuel
Art is the food of our soul
Love is our drive
In this life time i am perfect
In this place i am perfect
Seeing myself through God's eyes.


Disclosure

If i see the future and you are not with me
do you want me to tell you the truth
do you want me to see you out the door
smile and wave good bye?

i will see you again
this i know to be true
with every step that i take, in this life, i will think of you

in the next life
i will remember you then too
somehow, we are all sisters
sharing this moment
then the next, one right after another
circle of six, seven, eight, nine, ten
get up and start all over again

this dance was made in the heavens
the gods were bored and in love
when they made me and you and you and you

If i see the future and you don't like it
will you want me to tell the truth?
should I shut my mouth
when I close my eyes?
drift away and say goodbye?
A smile on my lips
is like a moment on the hips
dancing to the subtle truths of the heavens
not created by you or I
dutifully followed
in the hopes of successing a dream


this place
the next
its all the same to me
but in your eyes
i am perfect
and that will always be the place where i want to be

this chime filled heaven
called out my name
senorita kristina
vien con migo
come with me
come to me
be apart of the everything that is nothing
but exactly where you want to be
this was my dream
this is my reality

if i followed your dream and made it mine
where would i end?
would i follow the same path to heaven
or would i go there to find your heaven is in fact my desired place to be?
if i could have anything in this world
it would be for you to want
what is best and precise for me
me me me
is it all about you
trying to justly treat
other desires
of our life
means we can learn to dance the wrath of daily life
how do i do this?
how do i want for me, what other want for themselves?
how can others want for them, want i want for myself?
this is a direct conflict of realities
what i want
what i need
cannot be everything to another human being
what they want
what they need
doesn't always fit into your own reality
how can it fit into another's dreams of self?
we see the pride
the prejudice
of the sins of man before us
what can we do
learn and see our justice through
strength and honor above all
strength of self
honor of family
which one is more true?
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Family Forever sometimes means letting go when you do not want to?
How does that make any sense?
Are you saying that you would be happier not being a part of this family? The same family that put you first time and time again?
Raising children is not for the squeamish.
