Waves

By Mac Guerreiro It hits me fast and hard,“How fucking lucky are you?”And eye am,SO SO SO,Blessed,The love in my life is the best,From all fronts,No questions asked,And it hit me again,Something new,Something eye hadn’t seen,The love is just mirroring me,And eye couldn’t stop crying,Tears of all kinds from all sides,The broken spirit of my …

N8

By Mac Guerreiro You laugh when Eye’m myself,You admit you need my help,You enjoy all that eye am,Even when eye can’t,You show me what it is to grow,You remind me that you know,Just how capable eye can be,Of keeping you beside me,A reminder eye need more often than eye’d like,You don’t judge me,You just hold …

POS

By Mac Guerreiro Trying to be kind,Trying,Trying to remind myself eye can,Trying,But it’s not working,Nothing works.

Always

By Mac Guerreiro Eye am calling,Do you hear me?Eye am calling,Through my waters,My skies,In the birds’ cries,Eye call to You,To sniff every flower,To enjoy every one of my showers,Be it warm in your home,Or standing on my ground,Eye call you to breathe in every sound,Every sight,Both mine and what’s projected in your mind’s eye,Feel every …

Still

By Mac Guerreiro Stand still and clench your jaw till it hurts,Stand still because you don’t have words,The words you have will only detonate,The words you have will only push him away,Stand still and crawl out of your skin,Stand still because you’re scared of losing,Losing it all,Losing him,He says impossible but damn don’t you wanna …

Rabbit Hole

By Mac Guerreiro Snip snip,Slip slip,Be careful now,A minor attachment to a little thought,And you’re going down,Down down,Into the rabbit hole,The one that threatens to steal your soul,One self hating thought,That’s all it takes,And you’re on your way,Down,Down,When eye finally reach the bottom,Will it make a sound?

ED

By Mac Guerreiro A dis-ease,A sneaky one too,It hides,Sometimes for so long,Till it rears again,And you’re left wondering if you ever healed at all,Funny how it’s named,When it’s not about that,Not one bit,How am eye back in the heat of it?

The Start

By Mac Guerreiro Feeling myself,Hearing myself,Being my Self,It’s about fucking time isn’t it?And yet,This journey is infinite

Searching

By Mac Guerreiro She’s searching for grace,The grace she can rarely give herself,The grace that would have helped,The grace that never came,And was replaced by shame,She searches for it,She doesn’t know it,But when she finds it she holds on,She tries to learn before it’s gone.

Yes, the exclusion leaves you feeling pain. For me that pain sits in my heart. It’s sat there from the moment eye first felt …
