I always tend to be an optimist

But these days I’m not quite sure

Every day it gets harder and harder

I don’t know how much I can endure

I try not to get overwhelmed

By the daily routine of my life

But I’m stuck in a rut, an abyss

One that’s filled with unbearable strife

Pessimism was never my forte

Though the times have changed, you see

I’m beginning to think I’ve forgotten

How beautiful this life can be

Bewildered ~ #poetry

Baffled by that which surrounds her

Embarrassed by what she’d become

Wondered why this had happened

Insanity hit her, until she was numb

Lost in her own world, she lingered

Dazed and confused, overwrought

Ever perplexed, and befuddled

Reality was what she had sought

Everything mixed up, and muddled

Disconcerted, by her own thoughts

The full moon, a mere speck in the sky

A wolf, this powerful creature, was I

Transformed, I found my perfect place

No longer human, I have a new face

Whitened, my hair, like the snow, was my fur

Now a she wolf, I was no longer her

This was my destiny, ne’er to stray

Knowing I’d forever, stay this way

Drawn within, against my will, as my body trembles still

How your words stop me cold, how your body makes me bold

Longing for your hot embraces, finding those forbidden places

How your glances make me shy, how your whispers make me sigh

Wrapped around your little finger, sensual touches ever linger

How your domineering stance, sends me soaring at a glance

Drawn within, against my will, captured by your body’s skill

Far Away ~ #poetry #TheDailyPost

Let me sail, into the bliss

Where the setting sun and horizon kiss

Journey far, into the night

Let the stars be my guiding light

Watch, as the moon shows his face

I can’t think of being in a better place

I’ll throw my troubles, over the side

I never want to go back inside

Here, is where I long to stay

Upon the ocean, drifting, far away
