Fairy Tales
I am no princess in the tower
I am no sleeping beauty
I don't need a rescue
I don't need a prince to be complete
But i still wouldn't mind the kiss
To awaken me from this slumber
Of being alone
but never lonely
Touch is a part of the human experience
Its been too long
I am not Cinderella
I didn't lose any glass slipper
I am tough, i am strong
Solid on my feet
quick with my tongue
I am no wilting flower
cowering from the big bad man
I don't need anyone to save me
I am happy to be me
I am no victim
And i will not be ever again
I don't need mario to come save me
I don't need prince charming
Just one real man with a kind heart
and beauty inside
Who creates with his hands and mind
Who will play me like a guitar
strumming all the write chords
To make me sing
gentle hands know all the right ways
Shares flesh
from head to toe
trust in a artistic soul
So expectations
No promises
Just us
in the moment
from moment by moment

Come find me
You want me?
come find me
You have to work for me
I don't just give myself away
I have a price above jewels
I sparkle like them tho'
So the finding should be easy
paradise awaits in my arms
Find me
and i will open up my heart
and you will see all my charms
but, you have to be good to me
treat me right
Or i am gone like vapor
In a hot summers night
I will be unexpected
I wont look like you think i would
But, look beyond that
To what you already know of me
and come, find me
I am waiting in t he garden
I have made just for us two

Big
A candle burns next to me
Candlelight is always flattering
but no one is here to look upon me
So, it really doesn't matter
I feel like breaking out of my shell
rattling my cage
Do things i am forbidden
regardless of price i might pay
I feel ready to leave this town i have called home for so long
Find bigger things
Find my destiny
find my bliss
I feel like a big big
girl in a tiny box
I have big emotions and big thoughts
bigger than those around here
What i want most
if i were to tell the truth
is someone to love me
hold, me kiss me and protect me
i dream of a big big life
with big love, big passion. big words

Girl like me
When i meet you
I hope that i am at my best
I hope i find my words
Lyrical and smooth
I hope you see something in me
The others never did
I hope that you will give me the chance
To show you what i have to give
I hope you will stick around long enough to get to know me
I hope you wont be put off by my directness
and will appreciate my honesty
I am real, oh so real
My flawed body
My flawed skin
My flawed soul
and past of sin
But i hope you will stick around a while
See i have worth
Not linger in pre-conceived notions
about what a girl like me is

Burning for you
I burn for you, you know
So much i sometimes cant take it
Afraid it will consume me
Quench the fire
give it that which satisfies
You don't have to love me
Look me in the eyes
make no promises you don't intend to keep
You are in my mind when i go to bed at night
Always there, always i burn
Something about it fits
The thoughts of me and you

Love and war
No one warned me about you
No one told me I would become addicted
I ache to breath you in
touch you, just so
taste your saltiness on my lips
spend the night looking into your eyes
hold you hand if you were to cry
I want to listen to you tell me all you believe in
Hear your thoughts on love and war
I want to know what you were like as a little boy
I want to share all that i am with you
and have you love me anyway
I want to take in all you are, flaws and all
and love you unconditionally
I don't care what you have done in the past
I don't care where you've been
I don't care who you are in life
Just who you are with me

Chemistry
Your eyes they hold me
From across the room
I see you sweetly
I think i love you
I shyly smile
you smile too
We go to dance
Your hand on the small of my back
can you feel it.
Are you getting warm
we say no words
but the feelings strong
something palpable
my heart beats fast
my breathing quickens
it doesn't pass
Your eyes so blue
Face so kind
I want to kiss you
I want you to be mine
We just met
said few words
but i feel for you
something warm and wet
I want to be alone with you
in a darkly lit room
eyes of an angel
lips of joy
body just perfect
for me anyway
i want to taste your sweetness
kiss your ear
tickle your arm
place my hand upon your knee
while you whisper sweet something
in my ear
giving me shivers
and you pull me near
i want to feel your breath on my neck
as your hand moves down my back
I want to run away with you
no looking back
who is this stranger who moves me so
i don't feel in danger
so i wont go
hands move, and lips join
feeling euphoric
feeling you

Taking the ride
has love lost left you so jaded
that you fear taking a risk
fear a real woman
fear she could give you what you need most in your heart
and body
have you been burned beyond recognition by love
have you lost the will to love again
Wholly and fully
not just half way not just pretend
Does wisdom make you fear
What could come
is avoiding pain worth not taking the ride
No risk, but no experience
I feel that too
My skin still burns from the last
My first and last
Three years gone, and it still stings sometimes
There is more to a woman than body, more than a face
Those things are fleeting. Youth is only temporary
But, in my heart, beats a strong woman
Someone who loves wholly and deeply
I would never be the one to leave
I would not be the one to say goodbye
I want a man to protect me, take care of me
Love me as i am, even my faults
One that will hold me when i cry, and who can make me laugh
One that burns with passion and emotion
One with kind hands and honest words
A man that lives in his own art
Who takes nothing for granted
Who can respect me
Who i can respect
and whom i can love unconditionally
despite his flaws
Someone who burns as much as i do
A man who is ok with letting me to my thing
and i wont mind if he does his.
So long as we come back together at the end of the night
A man who wont call names when we fight
Anger i don't mind. I have a temper myself
A man who doesn't balk at my stubbornness and opinions
I wouldn't mind his either
I don't need a big love, i don't need a soul mate
Not right now.
What i do need is faithfulness, love, comfort, care and kindness
And i need passion. oh, do i need passion
You don't have to be a perfect man
Just be good to me.
I will always be good to you, love.
Just love me in the way you do
be truthful, be kind
I ca accept any odd thing you throw at me
As long as you remember i am an odd creature too
I can promise you that i will love you with no condition,
be faithful, submit to your guidance,
So please don't steer me wrong
let you take care of me burn up the bed with abandon
endless passion, and emotion
A soft touch, kisses like wine A lot of respect, and always the truth
My body and my heart i pledge to thee
Come
My love, come.

Cold Comfort
The comfort i get from you is cold.
It has no flesh, no blood, no bone.
No words meant just for me.
No hand holding mine
No arm around my waist
No shared tears
or little joke to make me smile
My comfort comes from the knowledge of you
And the knowledge of who am
And the things between those two,
that come from the same places
I do not know you
You do not know me
We are thousands of miles a apart
But knowing, someone is out there
Knowing there is someone who has felt what i have
Who has experienced those same scars
Comforts me.
You are my cold comfort when things get bad
When the memories make me sad and blue
Because, those things are things a proper girl doesn't talk about
Those dirty things that are unspoken.
They need to be given breath
I hide them beneath my breast
Because, no one understands them
The secrets.
The pain
The secret aching in my heart i feel in the night
And the ache below
My secret desire i give no word to
not for anyone's ears
You expose yourself in so many ways
Just put it out there for the world to see, and judge
naked and unafraid
Bare
In my hours of memory an silence
I yearn for my cold comfort
and i put on a record and i go there
and i am alone and i am fine

The Loss
I am weary of this world
With its traps and snares
Its liars and thieves
Psychological vampires roaming these halls
Seeking to suck me dry
Of intellect, and wisdom, and emotion
Until i am a dry dusty shell
Repulsed by my body
Because i am not perfect
I am flawed. I have scars
My body is soft and lumpy
From years of self abuse
A slow suicide with food
Seeking my escape
But i woke up from that slumber
I made the change
Got me a new outlook
Getting me a new body
But it takes time.
Time i wonder if i have
Will i be loved when i am done?
Will i know passion for the first time?
Will a beautiful man take me in his arms
Will i show him all my hidden charms
Will i be beautiful
Will my outside finally match my insides
So many questions in my mind
rattle around like marbles in a jar
The not knowing, is torture for me
Wanting love is perfect misery
Not having it is like bleeding
Blood pours onto the rocks below
The water crashes
I look into the waves and i contemplate
my existence, my value as a woman
No man wants me right now
I wish they did
A beautiful man, with his own art
His own emotion and passion in life
With a kind heart and a quick wit
loving hands and lusty lips
A man who looks inside and sees something
Something pretty and wise and serene
Will it come later
Or will i be alone
I had a love once
but he was lying to me
Said he loved me when he didn't
all those years wasted
believing the lie
Making myself sick
he wanted me to die
But in the now
IN the now i am strong
I am regaining health
wisdom came long ago
wise and wicked i am
still, the thing that eludes me is the love of a good man

Ties that bind
What reason do i have to stay here?
I have no ties that bind
If i was a rich girl
I'd be in Paris or London right now
Looking at something beautiful
Something bigger than myself
Maybe i would find a nice man
With a charming accent
Who could kiss me so good
I feel it down to my toes.
who could make me laugh
And who my secrets i could disclose
I could see the worlds great artists
Mingle with the locals and play
Eat nice food That's bad for me
Sleep until noon
wear a smile, and nothing else in my hotel room
There would be no reason to come back
not to stay
I know it is harsh, but i feel that way
I have no ties that bind me
And i like it that way.
Since i am a poor girl
I am stuck here for now
But i am gonna take my art
and make it somehow
I am gonna find a new life
a new man too
One who really loved me, and makes me burn
I have never had a true love
Or a burning passion
I want both some day
I want it to last
Something more than words and release
Something new.

Roam the world
I'm so tired
So worn down
From always thinking
My brain wont stop
It just needs a little rest
My body too
looking at me
You never would have guessed
And i wish i was free
To roam the world
Just living to be me
experience something new
So many times
I've seen them walking out that door
No kiss goodbye
Left me broken on the floor
But, i know that i am at my best
without them to disturb my rest
And i wish i was free
to roam the world
just living to be me
experience something new
And when i'm done and seen all i want
I would come home and find someone who
would give me rest and a little of his love
and settle down
in peace and endless passion
But i first want to roam the world
free to be
no one but me
no wife, girlfriend, no ones daughter
Just Heather alone in her bliss
Maybe find someone to kiss
When i fancy to
I want to be free to roam
I am so tired of just living here at home
My mind needs some release
My heart just needs a little peace.

Happy Fool
I am a happy fool sitting in the rain
Oblivious to any peril
I hear no thunder
I see no lightening
I just smile
Because it is beautiful here
And i am beautiful too
And being wet isn't so bad
Being wet feels real nice
When all you feel is dry
When you skin feels cracked from no use
Weathered and dusty
Water pours down on me
Like so many tears
From the weight of hard lived years
So, paint me a happy fool.
I will still be happier than you

Runny
Ink on paper
Running in the rain
Words i wrote you
fell on deaf eyes
deaf, dumb, and blind
That's me
deaf of heart, dumb of heart, blind of heart
I give it away
It comes back smashed and used
I open it up and it gets spit into
I hide it away and i burn
ink runny
heart bleeding
soul fractured
not fully dead, nor fully alive
waiting for something, someone, to arrive
Make a change
Change of scenery
Change of vocation
Change of a life
Change......Change......
Can ya spare a dime....
I need change

Deep
I cant touch your face, like i once touched his
Him who i should never have touched
You are not mine to have
Not mine to share with you
Not that i want you
Not in any kind of intense way
Any kind of deep way
I offered him love, he offered me pain
I gave him my innocence
He made me corrupt
But you would corrupt me too
With your wicked wicked ways
I am the sinner, you are the sin
yet, sometimes i fall deep
Deep inside where no one knows i hide
No one knows who the girl is who dwells in the deep
Deep well of something....
I can not define
As anything other than me, as emotion, as passion, as love, as need

Three long years
Am i flesh to you yet?
And flesh...... what is flesh
What makes us flesh and bone and blood?
breath, flesh, breathe on me
I am not sure i am flesh anymore
NO one has touched me for three long years
Have i stopped being flesh?
Touch keeps flesh nimble, wet, smooth
In truth you are just a concept
You are not flesh
Sometimes when i am feeling the alone creeping up on me
When it gets close and i can feel its breath on my neck
I think of you
I think of showing you my small world
In its plain and simple waves
I wonder if it would bore you
or if you would see beauty in it
The way i do.
And i do not think of flesh in those times
I think beyond flesh
I am beyond being flesh bound in those moments
I would love to show myself to you in ways i never showed him
I held back parts of me, because he did not deserve them
His hands bruised me and his words made me bleed for so many years
He did not deserve my deepest jewels
He did not deserve me
Not that i am better than anyone else
Because i am not, i am flawed
I am human
Being human means being flesh
flesh is fallible
What's a word flesh
Its just a word
It doesn't make me real
Touch makes me real
Makes me whole
Love, makes me whole
Not that i am invalid alone
I am valid
I just need. i want
You or someone like you
Some facsimile of what i perceive you to be
Some kind of something that i can connect to on a deeper level than i had with him
With him i was just biding my time
Waiting for something better to happen to me
Now i am making things happen
But alone.
Three long years alone
Its is not what God intended
he left me alone
That i am thankful for
I was in prison then
I was more alone with him than i am with no one
Years of disappointment, of pain, of loneliness
In a house made for two that was no home
At night i pray for you, what i want you to be like, how i want you to look
The passion i want you to have
The flesh i desire in you
Most importantly i pray you are nothing like him
Not one particle, not one cell of resemblance
I sometimes wonder if i pray hard enough, if God will form you from the earth
Like Adam in the garden
And place your rib within me, making me your Eve
If i can pray you, dream you into existence
if i just try hard enough, if i just believe

Art
I love the way paint feel on my hands
The pencil draws without thought
But, in my deepest self Its my words that are my art
Words inside me swell
They come bursting out
I want to stuff your words inside my ears
I am a junkie, and words are my heroin
I am an artist I didn't say i was good
I paint pictures with my words
I pour my heart, my soul my blood into each phrase
They are all little pieces of me
Some say i talk to much
But, that's just me being me
Words have power, have charm
Words can ignite, disarm
Words can hurt or sooth
Emotion in the form of words is what i give to you
My gift My love to you

I cant sleep
I lay in bed at night
Just staring in the dark
beneath the covers
Hearing nothing but the sound of my beating heart
It seems like i cant sleep without you here with me
Though, you and i never were and never will be
You are my cold comfort in the night
A memory of something that feels so right
Haunted by you like a ghost
You are always there, not visible but close
Close to my heart
To my soul, to my mind
I lie here naked and alone
I live ina house, that is no home
Its just shelter above my head
This i lie in is just a bed
With no love, no passion to fill it up
No sweet whispers or tender touch
I feel divided in two
Both sides alone
pitted against each other
In one flesh
Seeking love from another
Flesh that burns Flesh that yearns Flesh that bleeds
Flesh that needs
I am human ya know
I have these scars that don't show
But, inside of me
Is a woman longing to be free
She is locked inside a cage hands and feet bound in chains
Only you hold the key

have you
Have you heard the words i have spoken to you
Have you felt how deep they run
Have you seen me somewhere in your mind
Have you stopped to think about me
You can see that i am no beauty
But i am pretty all the same
if you heard me laugh
if you saw me cry
You would see what i mean
do you feel me there with you
Have you seen what i do when no one is looking
Do you understand what i given to you
Have you any idea what you have given to me
Have you ever wanted to just give up the fight
Stop the charade you live
I see through you
I know just what to do
I give myself to you
Don't break me
I am fragile
Like a china doll
My skin is thin Like porcelain
I bruise easily
But i am a good woman
My heart is faithful and true
It beats for you alone once i give it to you

love/like
I love all your ridiculous ways
I like all the words that you say
When you whisper in my ear
Trying to calm my fears
And i don't know why but i see you in my dreams at night
And i don't know how to feel like this, i try to resist
You
I like how you are sweet and salty
I like the way you move when you are nervous
I like the way you smile at me
and You make me laugh and you make me smile an you make me feel alive
And i see so much in you that others cant see and that's pretty to me
I love the way you shine
I love the way you feel like your all mine
I ache when you cry
and i want to take you in my arms and hold you and show you all my charms
And i want to wipe your tears away take away your tears and tell you its all ok
I want to be for you what you have been for me
Just let me be

Small
This town is so small
And these people have small minds
ad i am so big
big thoughts, big heart, big soul
i want to break out
Be free from this place
I have never belonged here
I see nothing familiar within any face
I belong somewhere else
I belong to something bigger than me
I have some dreams
To write, to love, to be free
I am dying here
Choking on all the nothingness
All the shallowness
Of them all
of this city
of these people
Its always been the same here
All my years here
I never fit in
What am i doing here
I don't belong here

Sweet Summer Rain
I stood in the rain today
Alone
Just to feel the way the water felt on my skin
pours across my breast
drenching me
I stared at the sky
Let the water roll down
Sweet summer rain
It was quiet no other sounds
But the drops hitting the leaves
dripping wet
My hair ruined
My shirt clings to my back
Like desperation
The rain was so beautiful
Like Gods tears raining down on me
Washing away the things that hurt me
Washing away my shame and tragedy
Standing in the rain
I feel its emotion
In motion
dripping down over me
