Kris' poetry

I want to move my poetry over here. I don't want to lose it.

I was just sitting here, at the pc, feeling a plethra of emotions, and this poured out from my soul... thought that I would share it here.


My Heart

my heart aches
much at stake
love so intense
life without sense

in a daze
looking through haze
which for me
shall it be

roads split apart
inside the heart
is love strong
is it wrong

needing to be
with her... me
feel those arms
kept from harm

filling my mind
one of a kind
destiny it seems
awaken in dreams

needing her touch
wanting so much
feeling her whole
inside of my soul

together as one
or do we run
near or far
she's my bright star

life takes hold
shaping... im it's mold
twisting and turning
leaving me churning

inside and out
without a doubt
leave me to be
everything but free

come to me, please
dont be a tease
quench my insatiable thirst
pulled me from the first

only with you
can i seem to get through
this life of hell
with you, my shell

A SOULS REDEMPTION

Spectacular and sensational
Filled with an amazing grace
Pardoning my heart from this burden
The beauty of your angelic face

Save my decrepid soul
From the pitfalls of despair
Reaching inside of my deadend heart
A gentle touch... reviving care

My life lays within your loving hands
The balance of my destiny and fate
I've been forever captured by you
There's no turning back... it's too late.

Rippling effect through my mind
Filled with fears
Dripping down my face
Acid... in the form of these wreched tears

Wipe them away as they fall
Careful though so you don't burn your hand
The hatred forms
And now I must make a stand

You were a deadly toxin to my brain
And into my blood stream
Running in my body
Living inside a horrible dream.

K. Rucker ~ 10 May 2005

Lies and deceit
All part of your game
Playing someone's mind
It's such a crying shame

You hurt and destroy
What someone took as gold
How dare you... how can you
Have to be so cold

Twisting and turning
The knife in my heart
Slowly, you were killing me
Your plan from the start.

K. Rucker ~ 10 May 2005

DECEPTION

Out of control
Don't know what to believe
My heart or my head
Could I have been deceived

Were they lies or truth
How can I tell them apart
As doubt rips through me
Blazing and burning straight to my heart

Was I a fool not to see
What was laid out in front of my eyes
As you gave me more and more
Nothing but a pack full of lies

K. Rucker ~ 10 May 2005

Rain falls... dripping from the sky above...
bringing memories back... of our once shared love.

Hearts race... skin burns with desire...
our passion ignites... we are both on fire.

Touch... sensual in every way....
freedom... together each and every day.

Completion of souls... a marriage of hearts...
through this we do give... and never shall part.

K. Rucker ~ 25 Jan 2005

Love me forever
Life my heart
Hold me closely
Never part.

Feel my embrace
Close to your skin
Touching you lightly
Same blood... we are now kin.

K. Rucker ~ 25 Jan 2005

my rain
my passion
my love
my obsession
my life
my breath
my happiness
my depth
my reason
my power
my giver
my warrior
my heart
my keeper
my soul
my dreamer
my sunshine
my flame
my everything
my rain

K. Rucker ~ 26 Jan 2005

The blood drips from within my hands
The stake embedded in my heart
Crimson stains across my body
My soul being ripped apart

A razors edge to walk
The jagged truth hard to swallow
Trying not to fall off the deep end
The inside is hallow

Web of deceit being spun
Around the body of life
Weaved with dark tales
Lit of fire and cut with knife


K. Rucker ~ 10 May 2005

SLUMBER

A careless whisper
and a stolen glance
Anything to have you near
and to have that chance

You've awoken me
from a slumber of years
Your love brings such light
and chases away my fears


Kris Rucker ~ 10 May 2005

SPARK

Crying
Dying
Flying
Trying

Don't leave me here alone
The darkness wants to claim
Burning from the inside out
Rage... and uncontrollable flame

Come to me... setting me free
But, without your love, it's empty and dark
I need your guiding hand
My life brought alive by your eternal spark.



Kris Rucker ~ 10 May 2005

Falling
Drifting
Useless
Lost

Fine me locked deep inside
Aware of nothing near
Surrounded, smothered
Trapped inside of my fear

I can't feel myself anymore
I've become numb to all
Not feeling, seeing, hearing
Don't know how to stop this fall

Reaching out... grasping
Can't find my way
So maybe I'll just close up
Here insde my darkness and stay.



Kris Rucker ~ 11 May 2005

Cover up your face
Hide your disgrace
You're outta place
And I need space

Stuck in this hell
That I know so well
For you I fell
But I couldn't tell

Can't you see
I need to be
Free
And find me


Kris Rucker ~ 11 May 2005

Which road will you choose
Which path will you walk
Standing at the crossroads of life
And all you can do is talk

Seeking to find some answers
Which way does your heart lead
The road to the left or the right
One leads to happiness, the other...
your heart will bleed

Take your time, pick with care
For once you pick the path to take
You life will forever change
So choose wisely of face regret... mistake

TOO MUCH

I think I know whats wrong
Within myself, I wasn't strong
Letting you inside.... controlling
Acting like you owned me... patrolling

Watching my every move
Trying to find that groove
But, it was too much to take
Too late, realizing my mistake

Didn't think about it fully
And you tugged me like a pulley
Pulling strings... guiding my feet
But this life, for me, was too steep

I was drowning inside of you
And lost myself... feeling blue
Now I've got to find the real me
And set my spirit soaring... free



Kris Rucker ~ 11 May 2005

My pride is broken
Pieces of my life on the floor
My mind is shattered
And you've gone out the door

How do I move forward now
When my life is tattered
What do I do with all of these memories
Toss them to the wind to be scattered

I'm scared... can't see past me
These walls are closing me in
Locked inside the pain and fear
Where do I look... where do I begin



Kris Rucker ~ 11 May 2005

Slipping deeper in to despair
For me there is no more air

Her soul calls to me
mine hears
beckons to be brought forth
and have no fears

She settles my soul
helps me to rest
touches me deeply
stamp me with her crest

She claims me....
She owns me....
She loves me...
She lifts me...

The gentle breeze
that she does bring
gives me peace
and it makes me sing

Eternally
my heart is hers
becoming one
together
forever
her
me
us
we

My soul sings
My heart cries
My body aches
My mind flies


Kris Rucker ~ date not recorded

I am yours
You are mine
Touch me now
Let love awaken
And flow with abandon
From you



Kris Rucker ~ date not recorded

I bleed as I scream
Torn apart at the seam
Burnt, shattered, empty, scared
Wondering why we ever cared
A soul left in peace
A heart that will cease
Stop the cycle, end this for me
Please, set me free
Release my soul, plunged into hell
A place I've lived and know so well
Disaster churns
My soul... it burns
Is someone there
Do they care

UNKNOWN

It is unknown
What lies ahead
Which path to walk
This one, or that instead

Where does the answer lie
Alone, together, seperate, forever

Find the truth, seeking justice
Painted signs giving light
Points you in the direction
To a place that is right

Settle within my soul
Bring forth your heavenly calm
Your touch... it's healing
My soul caressed by your soothing balm.

Lifes Path


Which way to choose
Which road to take
Don't look back
See no mistake

Walk forward to grow
Find yourself where you are
The answers are there
Not written in a star

Inside yourself
Set free
Become so new
Happy and free

Seek with your heart
Lead with your head
Love with your life
Don't walk around dead

Insecure
Wounded
Alone
Broken

Save me from myself
Before I fall to the side
Withering away
With the oceans tide

Solitude is my only friend
With her, I am safe
Her quietness will never hurt
And she always welcomes me in.
