Freedom

I wriggled out of my skin And danced under the sunlight I let the world fall away To embrace the woman I’ve worked so hard to become The floodgates opened And washed away all my worries In that moment I was free ♡Saschia

Scared

My field of vision shrinks and grows The distance changes shape as I go Colors blend and blur into grays It’s much scarier to live this way I’m not sure what’s gunna happen ♡Saschia

Spider Woman

Running toward the chaos With my mouth wide open Hoping to catch a rain drop in this madness They call me crazy I call me honest My tongue is illuminated My heart has so much to say So I capture it all in my web Just to dull the pain from all the knives inContinue reading “Spider Woman”

Lower

He slapped it to my bones My freedom a loose skin Crumpled on the floor These crevices are soothed by words There’s no way around it Babble incoherence dum dum dums Drummed on my tattered soul Divine notes stuck to my bones Causing a chatter A dance an opening I slow, releasing a slice ofContinue reading “Lower”
