UNREST

Posted on by Jixi Fox

I woke up today,
Woke,
Hardly any words,
Needed to be spoken,
The world was active,
The work is being done,
Strangely,
My mind was not at ease,
For I am smart enough to know,
Reality is not always what it seems,
We must fight,
Change must happen,
I can’t wait for tomorrow,
For today is right in our face,
So why wait?
Protest,
Looting,
Shooting,
Recruiting,
I am not in the mood,
I need to see documents,
I need to see new laws,
Now,
I am not with the shits,
I need something legit,
Pain been on my mind,
I need to get something off my chest,
Your knee is on my neck,
I kneel to make things correct,
Are you here now,
For the clout,
Are you here now,
To open your mouth,
Until them,
I don’t believe everything,
I am seeing,
I am unrested.

I TEAR #Unfinishstories

Posted on by Jixi Fox

I tear,
I cry,
Inside,
From missing you,
Can’t help the emotion,
Losing sanity,
Wanting to fight my way,
Back into your arms,
Even if it is to be hurt again,
I pen my love,
Certain,
Future and past tense,
I cry for you,
I miss you,
I can’t forget,
I don’t want to,
It is everything,
Not just the good,
But everything,
And how I felt,
Being with you,
….

Tear: pull or rip (something) apart or to pieces with force.

CLOSE #UnfinishedStories

Posted on by Jixi Fox

The last time,
The last time I felt,
Your warm embrace,
It put a smile,
On my face,
As it does,
Everyday,
Being so close to you,
After all these years knowing you,
Learning consistently,
Agreeing and not agreeing,
Spending endless nights,
Talking,
Walking on cloud 9,
Never caring about the time,
Knowing you are mine,
And I am yours,
Our closeness,
Developed,
Blossomed,
Widen,
Deepened,
…..

Close: a short distance away or apart in space or time.

Writing ✍️ From The Heart ❤️

Posted on by Jixi Fox

How do I start this off,
Always thinking,
Wonder what’s next to do,
Always winking,
Glancing at my dreams,
But reality,
Seems to have other plans for me,
Outside is baron,
Inside is captivity,
How the hell,
Can I expand my creativity,
I lay in the cut,
On the far side of the bed,
Body twist left,
Phone in hand,
On Instagram,
Wasting time,
Can’t move,
Want to try,
Telling myself I can’t loose,
But what if I died,
And never given,
Much less taken the chance,
I just don’t effin know,
Almost feeling,
Like it’s one of those days,
When things are just off,
But you want so hard for them to correct.

Written in ink,

On pages,
Exhausted,
All my words,

Solid,
They don't move.

MAY I PLEASE HAVE CAKE?

Posted on by Jixi Fox

The taste I can’t address,
When eating the best,
Dressed,
Licking my lips,
Moist delights,
On my tongue,
I want it go,
I want it so much more,
To stay in my mouth,
Flavors bursting out,
I have waited for far to long,
C’mon,
I must have my cake,
And eat it too.

This poem is for all the sweets lover out there. Especially people throw in down in the kitchen, baking, cooking, mixing, and remixing ideas and making them special. Big Yum Yum To You. 🙂

IN THE WORLD OF FEAR

Posted on by Jixi Fox

In the world of fear,
Listen for the voice,
That cares,
The one who hears,
Before,
Fallen were your tears,
The voice that cheers you on,
The voice that cheers you up,
A joke,
A tidbit,
A taste of mint,
Delight,
Something you may,
Not know,
You needed,
A expression,
Or something,
That hits you just right.

Today we are in trying times. Just a dash of a smile can go a long way. I had to write this as I know and feel for the people going through a dark time or even light. Our mind sometimes race wondering who is still there with you. Are your friends or family thinking about you, or sending a call or text, or are they trapped too behind a fence? Too tense as the volume of the world cries are too dense, will there voice ever reach you?

Okay I know, I wrote that quite poetically, but it has all the essence of what I what to say and describe. 🙂

Leave a comment below, mention a name of a friend that you care for or cares about you that is there for you in these times… that one person that create a dash of sunlight to your day hearing from them.
