To set the scene
You need thunder clouds
Pouring rain
An overflowing river

Now remember
This is all in your head
No matter how real it feels
Like a little movie in your brain

No one else can see it
No one else wants to share it
Your own personal purgatory
Maybe a personal hell

You stand there
On the edge of the river
Overwhelming with sadness and tears
Rain pouring down soaking you to the bones

Thunder clapping
Lightning flashing
Covering your screams
Screams of pain and torment

None can hear you
None in your head
And none in reality
As you suffer alone

This is my depression
I would love to share it
So it would be half the pain
But chemical depressions are not so easily shared

So I stay here
But the river of sorrow and tears
My makeup running down my face
As the river and the rain over take me

I pray for salvation
I pray for sun to break through the clouds
To dry me up and bless me
With happiness and smiles

[PoeticWitch]

Sleep is fleeting
As I dream of evil bunnies
In pink and purple polka dots
They aren't there for snuggles to be sure
With their sharp little teeth
I feel them sink into my flesh
Repeatedly electric shocks to my heart
Is this to help me?
To remind me to live?
Or to slowly kill me?
In a very painful way?
Loose the dogs!
The Chihuahuas are on the run!
To hunt the evil bunnies
To make a tasty meal of them
What a frightening thought!
I am so done with this dream
Or is it a nightmare?
Please let me wake up Mr. Sandman!
Damn bunnies!
Save me my magnificent Chihuahua Warriors!
As I roll out of bed
Forcing my eyes open
To what I hope is reality

High up on a mountain
In the highest room
Of a tower so very tall
Is a woman not a princess
No flowing locks to help her escape this prison

A prison of her own making
To protect her tender and fragile heart
Waiting for the Knight in Shining Armor
To brave these mighty walls
And the dragon hidden at the top if it all

There is no Rapunzel here
No mild manner or simpering princess
But a woman who is willing to fight
To protect her tender and fragile heart
With a dear dragon friend to bite a supposed knight or two

So Knight in Shining Armor
Do you brandish a sword?
Or maybe a pen or two?
Is brute force the answer?
Or perhaps a slow seduction of the mind?

Remember there is no Rapunzel here
No simpering princess to throw herself at you
You hurt her dragon
And this trapped woman
Might run you through with a sword or two

Tread softly
Use your eyes and your heart
Not everything is as it seems
Not all Knights in Shining Armor
Have to slay the Dragon to win the Maiden in distress

[PoeticWitch]

Wicked is what they call me
I doubt any know my name
From the west I come
Looking for my sister of the east
Politics run rampant
You are good and I am bad
The wizard is miraculous
G'linda the Good Witch will protect you from my wrath
As I see you celebrate the fact
That my little sister has been squashed by a house
And her corpse robbed of her precious ruby slippers
Mine! By right of familial inheritance
Sad that you bring an outsider into your political games
To rid our little world
Of the Wicked Witch of the West
Because none of those in power
Have the courage to do it on their own
To depend on a female child
To defeat me
Alas she succeeds
And I melt into nothing but goo
But worry not
This political game is not at an end
I am sure my son will take up my cause
To free the land of OZ from the Tyranny of the Wizard
And the supposed Good Witch

I stand before a mirror
Staring deep into my very own soul
What is it that I see there?

Is my soul in the mirror?
Or is that just the reflection of it?
Can I leave it in the mirror for safe keeping?

If the reflection holds onto my soul
Does it become me?
Will it crawl out of the prison of the mirror?

To become a doppelganger
To wreck havoc on my life
Do I even care?

Maybe I should crawl into the mirror
Taking its place on the other side
The prison, the mirror

Is the grass really greener on the other side?
How does my doppelganger live?
There on the other side in the mirror

Curiosity killed the cat
But satisfaction brought it back
I so need a vacation from my life

So doppelganger
Come here and take my place
And I will take yours in the mirror realm

You have my soul
To do as you please
To be a real live girl

Me a soulless creature
I must crawl into the mirror realm
To live as your reflection forever more

[PoeticWitch]

Morning comes
The sun filtering through the windows
Last nights dreams so real
That you question your own reality

Sitting on the side of the bed
Blinking your eyes trying to accept this reality
I glance across the bed
A small smile crosses my lips as my eyes rest upon your sleeping form

Our wee bit of a dog curled up tightly next to you
You sleeping so soundly and peacefully
I could have a marching band come through the room
And I don't think you would ever wake up

I sit there and watch you sleep
Looking so happy and peaceful
Just the way I like you
I always want to share the joy your bring to my life with you

I loved you back then
I loved you more yesterday
I love you even more at this moment
Hard to imagine, but I will love you even more then that when you open your eyes and smile at me

[PoeticWitch]

Headphones on
Music jammin on in my ears
Feet moving and grooving
To the tunes that move my soul

I imagine dancing on down the street
The music blaring from my body
Sharing the joy of music
Sharing the joy of carefree dancing

Contagious the motion
Contagious the melodies
Come with me
As we dance and sing on down the road

Free your spirit
Free your soul
Free your love
For there is nothing better

[PoeticWitch]

Sitting in the window
Watching the rain come down
TIme passing by
So utterly disappointing
Do you ever wonder what is the point of it all?
I wonder how do I cope with the boredom
With the frustration.
With the major let down
Of the every day bullshit
The TV and magazines
Say they have the cure
Which in lieu so say the doctors
Oh I have a pill or two or maybe even three for you
Oh Come on take these lovely pills
You will feel so much better
Almost like wearing rose colored glasses...
Take you pills kind doctor
And shove them where the sun doesn't shine
I have had my fill
Ready to live my life to the fullest
And maybe to learn how to cope with the ups and downs of life
Without chemicals fucking with my brains...
So take these pills and shove it.
