Where are you? As I lay here, my insides pouring out My heart aching with regret My mind, suffocated with doubt Where are you? As I cry out, “I’m lost and alone!” I don’t feel your presence as I lay here and moan Where are you? As I worry, for those I hold dear where is the comfort that replaces the fear Where are you? As I listen for your still quiet voice Why are you silent? Is it yours, or my choice? Where are you? As I plead, and beg for you to come Why don’t you answer? I’m slowly going...
A Certain Kind of Loneliness: A Poem...
posted by Beki
There’s a certain kind of loneliness that settles inside it hides behind shining blue eyes There’s a certain kind of loneliness that no one can see you pretend you appear to be happy There’s a certain kind of loneliness that goes unobserved Insecurities grow attention feels undeserved There’s a certain kind of loneliness that makes a soul ache your grip tightens but you bend until you break I know a certain kind of...
I Want To Live: A Poem...
posted by Beki
I want to be filled with laughter have it spill out, uncontrolled like when I was a child before I began to withhold I want to do something amazing something I feel in my core like walk a thousand miles until I am broken, bruised and sore I want to be filled with wonder see things I can’t comprehend Like when you gaze across the ocean and question if there’s an end I want to live each and every moment not wasting a single one I want to try, and do, everything and finish all that I’ve begun I want to...
Broken: A Poem

Let Me Take Your Pain: A Poem...
posted by Beki
I wish I could take your pain as my own I’d bury it deep inside me For I am stronger, I can carry your load What breaks you, won’t break me I wish I could take your pain as my own It feels like it’s mine anyway Your cuts are my cuts, we both bleed the same blood If I try, I can’t wipe it away I wish I could take your pain as my own And see you happy once more Free from these burdens that shackle you down Released from all you...
Alive: A Poem
posted by Beki
Windows down, music up I feel my thoughts drifting Who cares where this old road leads I feel my spirits lifting nothing but the big blue sky Stretched out ahead of me Nothing but an open road as far as I can see So I drive My spirit comes alive when I drive Wind in my hair makes me feel alive So I drive Legs grip tight, hands in mane I feel the mare shifting A signal from me will set her free and we’ll be off, racing nothing but the big blue sky Stretched out ahead of me Nothing but an open field as far as I can see So I ride My spirit comes alive when I ride Wind in my hair makes me feel alive So I ride I need the sun on my face I need a wide open space I need the smell of the trees Floating in on the breeze I need the wind in my hair Nothing will compare To when I drive To when I...
