Juno

I am my mother’s cheers

I embody my father’s fears

I go further and further past

the painful sears

that ended mom and dad-

that end to their careers…

I am guardian

of my mother’s ghost

I am protector

of my father’s post

I am gatekeeper

to that lone fated coast…

I am master

of my mother

of my father,

their fates

The master

of all fates-

yet master

of none…

I’m their warrior

their savior

their angel-

I am Juno

I am

and I am

their soul

their love-

reborn

The lie

Daddy-

did you know

that you lied?

 

Did you know-

what they know-

is a lie?

 

Did you know

that you died that day-

That day mom lied,

And you cried,

when she lied-

and she died.

 

Daddy,

did you know-

that they lied?

 

The lie they lied,

when they bit your pride

and made you decide

that life was now denied

because your soulmate died?

 

But let ‘they’ ride

to that negative upside

because you should know-

 

You should know, daddy-

 

That they lied that day

Giving up that day,

Lying down that day

That day; I cried-

When you died-

And you lied…
