ABOUT
THE AUTHOR
Haven't written in awhile, using this to express feelings and emotions on... hold. And for spur of the moments thoughts too. Note: Most of my writing is metaphorical! [November 2004]
AUTHOR'S OTHER TITLES (27) Anguish (Poetry) Found this poem recently. Wrote it in high school. My, was I a sad, sad girl. I remember those depressed days of blasting NIN while I contemplated death. Glad I'm over it. [93 words] Betrayed (Poetry) Friendship- some people don't know the meaning. Anyway- this one probably needs more work too, but ah well~ I'm mad and had to write it out... suggestions welcome. [101 words] Contemplating (Poetry) Wrote this after I wrote Illumination when the Damn Devil was still hunting me... not sure if it's done, but ah, well... [81 words] Craving (Poetry) I wrote this in about 5 minutes and it probably shows- but I was craving and had to write it out of my system. [34 words] [Erotic] Detroit Begging (Poetry) Ok - I was pretty annoyed this morning that I was asked for some change by this panhandler who would not give up. When I said no, he asked me to check my coat, or maybe go back to my car to see if the... [269 words] Exhausted (Poetry) Rainy days... are sometimes downright depressing. Where is the sunshine?!?! This is what came out of one of those sucky days... I think it needs work, suggestions are welcomed. [45 words] For The Devil (Poetry) - [118 words] Furious (Poetry) Still so angry at an ex-boyfriend that turned psycho stalker on me. He put me through hell, caused me to have to move, and made me guarded and distrustful of all men. I saw him this weekend and sparke... [151 words] Hangover (Poetry) This is for Andrea... (And maybe Wade too, since he supplied most of our drinks!) For our night of craziness at 5th Avenue and Sevin involving kissing girls (not by me!), getting kicked off of the sta... [139 words] [Humor] Haunted (Poetry) And still he whispers... as I try to hang on. Temptation... can sometimes get the best of you... but I'm trying not to give in. [118 words] He Whispers (Poetry) I couldn't get this Devil (a poet, no less!) out of my thoughts any other way but to write him out... I'm wondering if the repetitive whispering works in this poem? Let me know. It sounds good without... [87 words] [Mind] His Shirt (Poetry) Funny how a piece of clothing can stir up moments in time... [102 words] Illumination (Poetry) Hmmm... Salvation was already taken... Ah, well... [119 words] Into The Darkness (Poetry) For The Devil. Thank you for corrupting my soul in the sweetest, slowest, and most gentle way possible. Damn you. =P [229 words] Jaded Eyes (Poetry) - [54 words] [Relationships] My Addiction (Poetry) I find myself addicted... [169 words] Prayer (Poetry) Trying to save myself... [195 words] Run Away (Poetry) I'm restless and have this insane need to get away from everyone and everything... maybe I just need a vacation? Anyway, I was just trying to write it out of my system. [87 words] Spoon (Poetry) This poem is for Jonathan- as requested (demanded?! J/K). My promise has been kept. This came out of a conversation on cuddling and how great cuddling is... and then I guess the Devil got in my head a... [45 words] [Erotic] Stolen Kiss (Poetry) Thinking about this and reliving a nice, stolen moment... [214 words] Submerge (Poetry) Started in October 2003 and decided to work on it again. Not much of a free verser... Changed the name from Drawn to Drown (not available, so changed to Submerge), makes more sense with the new lines.... [37 words] Suffocated (Poetry) Writing things out as usual... [72 words] [Relationships] Tease (Poetry) I was recently told that I'm a tease- I guess I kind of am because I've stayed single and abstinent for over a year now. But, isn't teasing the funnest part? ;) This was just something I had fun with.... [216 words] Unbound (Poetry) This is pretty short, but I don't know, it seems to say everything for me. This is for Jon. [16 words] Waste (Poetry) Saw a picture and got mad again. Hate having him in my thoughts, so, I tried to write him out. Shall I replace "goodness" with kindness, integrity or decency? Lemme' know, I'll change it according to ... [20 words] Welcome (Poetry) (Reposted) My muse endeavored to inspire... Jonathan, this is for you. Don't forget to leave your door unlocked. Welcome because you always say I am. Welcome because you won't accept my thanks.

I watched my first true love sit in his car and cry a... [140 words]
Exorcism Tessa
The Devil- I drive you from me,
Unclean spirit, infernal fiend
Most cunning serpent,
You shall no more poison me
I banish The Devil
Away from my resistant soul
I値l never return to the darkness
Nor the flames of your hell hole
I値l no longer fall
For your demonic charms
For I知 saving myself
From any further harm
Harsher consequences were avoided
And a valuable lesson I have learned
I知 escaping from The Devil
And the damnation of eternally being burned
I知 returning to the Light
And the world of the good and the pure
I知 saved from The Devil,
From your charms and spells I知 cured

"It sounds like you finally found your angel, hold on tight. This will probably make The Devil try that much harder. Good luck to you." -- JM.
"It's OK. It's your loss and you know it. Have a nice time trying to find someone who is as much fun. " -- The Devil.
"JM- Thanks for all the encouragement you've given! The Devil- Hmmmm... My loss, huh? Nah, I think it's yours. And yeah, you were oh-so-fun, but the game has been played and it's over. All of the intrigue and temptation has been satiated. Time for me to move on. Now- shoo! =P" -- Tessa.
"After reading The Devil's postings under Unbound- I don't think this poem did the job. Ignore him. It's the best way to rid yourself of him. The poems that you write that have nothing to do with The Devil are your best, my suggestion: focus on non-Devil subjects." -- Ben.
"Tessa, I'm sure you realize by now, that you were just one of many to fall victim to this devil's demonic charms. I know because I was one of them. Believe me, there are men out there who are much more fun and not at all evil. Hopefully, you have already discovered that." -- Robin.
"Ben- Thanks for the review and the advice. The poems for the Devil were part of a... game, but if I choose to post anymore poems here, they won't be about him. Robin- Hmmmm... Are we talking about the very same Devil? LOL! He is a charming one, huh? I think if you read this poem, I exorcised him in March. ;) " -- Tessa.
"I know this is long after the fact, but yes, Tessa we are most definitely talking about the same Devil. We all return to the light eventually, except for the one who was stupid enough to marry him. I'm glad you're cured. So am I and it feels great!" -- Robin.
