Spelunking Solo 

September 11, 2015Lotus Leoalone, confidence, love, passion, reach, real, relationship, settle 1 Comment

Emotionally unavailable 

You wrap around my mind

Flirting with disaster

Falling deeper

Falling faster

—

Falling deeper for another

For whom I am “the other”

There’s no possible way

That I can settle for this

—

So we’ve hit rock bottom

And I’ve started to dig. 

I suppose I’ll be proceeding alone.

Crimson 

March 7, 2015Lotus Leoalone, night, poetry Leave a comment

As the sky darkens 

And the day becomes night 
the Crimson sunset melts in the horizon

As evening unfolds
Occupied by thoughts
Teeming with words 
Silent 

The night has yet to begin

Just A Touch

March 4, 2015Lotus Leoalone, forgotten, heartbreak, hopeful, love, touch Leave a comment

The warmth of human touch

A contact most basic;
Arms embrace
Lips touch
Fingers interlace 

A comfort to the soul
It’s all I used to know;
Gone from here
Forgotten softness
Withheld tears

And a bitter question, begging:
Is it possible to find again?

Waiting

February 18, 2015Lotus Leoalone, care, love, relationship, time, together, waiting 1 Comment

Waiting
I just cannot help
But wait
For you
My love, my muse, my nemesis.
For you
I pause my half-hearted sprint
Hopeful in your direction
Cast out time and again.
For you
I return
And I wait

Stillness

February 12, 2015Lotus Leoalone, edge, photo, rebuilding, renew, sitting, strength, waiting Leave a comment

Waiting on shattered ground
Pursuing a fragmented future
Picking up the pieces
And moving forward

But first, a long-awaited exhale
