"A Re-Creation of the Re-Created"

       For my Mother and Father

This is the household of the loverly couple
who chose to start again.
With this came the trouble
the children had to tend.

Dishes sunk deep in the murky sink;
clear views were hard to find.
Yet, there were those new-found items 
which seemed to save a bit of sweat.

However, phase two was worse.
Murky being clearly seen,
neighbors getting the full view,
without the shade-they'd be through.

Darkened moments of frustration-
cleared the minds after conversation.
No matter the pay for the cultures about,
the service was doing a willing part.

phase three hadn't even begun,
when the mother went into a panic!
What a joy, what a horror,
she was becoming the guide to the tour.

wood stacked, paint glistening,
glass broken, but beautiful,
this creation was nearly through,
as more was needed to finish.

More and more. 
Time and more time. 
unbelieving and doubtful,
this mess would soon become functional

again...in time...
hopefully.
please.
soon.

"Without a Literary Title"

No one to notice 
No one to stare
No one to compromise with
No one to care

"May 27, 2013"

   It will hold you away
the moments won't be able to stop
memories run, run away.
  It will hold all the pieces together
for only a silence of passion
this flight of reason will ruin the fading light, completely.
 It will hold not one 
but the both of us to loving,
loving to a point of contradicting daisies.
 Your loss of existence holds me,
holds me in diverse ways of accepting
truths that cannot take me on forever.
 It will hold a continual sorrow
this saddening growth of pain
just for you. just for us. 
 It will hold onto the rest of my hopes
my desires
my lovers
my delirious spirals of stemming studious styles for love. 

"Discreet Loss"

Land Stretches between us.

There’s true confusement with your care.

Memories remembered.

I can only dream to be there.

She is always on your mind-

You say i am too,

but proof lingers and i know

it isn’t all that true.

I long for you

and imagine your smile

so close and sweet

I knew it was worthwhile…

Seeing her touch you;

i can feel

searing agony-

And Keep Still!

it kills.

my heart may stop-

for him,

i let life drop.

imagine-

him.

Continue-

grim.

down

alright.

his

tonight. 

-Isabel Aanya Leigh

"Experience"

So  close,

As the falling rain in surety.

It occurs,

and only i, i believe, can see.

Straightened and Secured,

i know.

Complete and Complicated,

we knew.

-Isabel Aanya Leigh

"Don't Stay"

fortunately she noticed

before it began

he never quite said he did,

he wasn’t really a man.

Her love had to be stopped now

Or she would land hard.

emotions looked too blasé;

he had to stand guard.

happiness can last so long

with the true intent;

never let him overtake

that sweetened resent.

the overpowering grip has,

but two open hearts.

both focused on near future;

only one knows the parts.

outlasting one another

visualizes truth.

Picking over destroys-

and shows this is youth.

understanding doesn’t count

time can only lie..

the sweet fall only allows

an unassured “goodbye.”

-Isabel Aanya Leigh

"The Box"

Restrained

Held close

shut inside

gave most

She never said

She stopped right

She always left

She gave insight

he smiled forever

he left her there

he never stayed by her, but

he never cared

They dreamed up a perfect world

They kissed by a marvelous power

They cried till the last day

They thought they could overpower

Once he was restrained.

Once she was held close.

Once they were shut inside.

Once, only one gave most. 

-Isabel Aanya Leigh

"Emotional Hell"

Standing Straight in his view

prose of so-thought divine love

reacted the confined

and brought him below, from above.

Released, was he soon

into a fast blackness untold.

Revealed, was he then

the scene always doubted and old.

Shrieking to the Devil,

He whimpers out a bloody cry.

Insides burst unto her-

finally, his heart would not try.

-Isabel Aanya Leigh

"The Conclusion"

Stand down my lovers heart;

a victory has torn through

the first of that ending

to begin something so new.

Once upon each other

Concluding on that dark night.

the sweet constricted air

she solemnly found the might.

Silently remembered

and distantly forgotten,

their memories lied down

forever in completion.

-Isabel Aanya Leigh

Taken Aback

I’m starting to see it burn.

I’m beginning to watch the fall.

from one mistake to the next,

i can’t believe we did it all.

incredible dreams never lie

to those who do not know;

i can’t be sorry it’s been done,

i’m just amazed we went so low.

i’m not sorry it happened

i just feel like i was used…

Unbelievable dreams awaken me;

My dearest, i’m so confused.

Unstoppable nightmares haunt me.

I’m never alone…

We are always in His eyes,

my thoughts aren’t even Unknown

All the choices have the endings

We hoped would never come true

Now I’ve been torn apart again,

the rest of my life i should pursue.

The shadow couldn’t reach beyond

The reality of my lovers.

My thoughts, my actions never stopped

Reaching the one who so dearly suffers.

Come again by the secret way you do

to hold that beauty inside

but you, my dearest, only found a fiend

Which had hurt them all & lied…

Such a terrible fate for one so loved,

by only the dear summer games.

the Stars couldn’t be seen eventually;

that hill wouldn’t even whisper the names.
