Lonely Sailor (Part One)
I was stealing out into the darkness of the summer night at sixteen. My senses were still on high alert. I quietly close the basement door of my first unshared bedroom. My parents were lifeless, and when last I did dare to peek into their room, my father lay naked as did my mother on … Continue reading Lonely Sailor (Part One)

Wedding Day
Staring at an unfamiliar image in a mirror, she no longer recognized her reflection. Deep wrinkles creating a widespread and complex map of time. Once journeyed heartrending pathways creating deep etches in her skin like an unearthed and yet once known cavern, which yearned for discovery, love, and peace. Her diminishing and twisted leathered skin … Continue reading Wedding Day

Morning Love
Kissing gently one another in the morning's shimmering, damp dew, Sunrise driving out the fog and so begot the love that angels knew, Twas the singing heartbeat of their adoration that gave away the two, Oaths worth keeping, so on the back of a unicorn and away they flew. by Joni Caggiano 8/14/19
THE LIE
A thing that grows and stings the soul, Of the ears in which it lands.Pain ruptured wound now reopened, Doubt begins to wonder once again.How does it so easily slide right off, The tip of that self-righteous tongue!Once verbalized it floats about in space, You can't deny or ignore its strength, It tugs and breaks … Continue reading THE LIE

My Forgiven Mistake
Eyes that once dreamed, now clouded by my twenty-year sentence, Walls so tightened, my viscera was slowly squeezed with foulness out, My skin weakened, but still supported by my falsely displayed armor. Void of all emotion, passion, or even a hint of a jagged seam united, As expected, a lifeless form, shuffled forward as foreseen … Continue reading My Forgiven Mistake
