Creative Expressions
Poetry by Bonny has been a lifelong endeavour of mine since I was a young girl. From the moment I learned to form sentences and rhyme words, I have communicated my thoughts and feelings through written expression. Having grown up with a lot of emotional and psychological struggles gave me much in-depth experience to draw from that helped to guide me in my writing. As I’ve grown older, I’ve found less of a need to express myself in poetry and have turned to other artistic expressions like Web & Graphic Design and sometimes even Photography.
Poetry is always at the heart of every expression and every emotion as life is like poetry in motion. I find the beauty in the most unusual places, embrace that beauty and draw life from each experience, allowing it to feed my creative energies. Growing older has also allowed me to outgrow many of the emotions that once drew me to the darker depths of artistic expression, providing me with the ability to experience life in a different and more uplifting way but within me is always the artistic energy that propels me to express myself through words and design.

Dec 29 2013 Watching You Watching Me
Oblivious to the eyes upon you
As you sift through my thoughts at will
Betrayal still inside your mind
Or you wouldn’t be so curious stillHidden eyes in secret places
Sitting quietly in the dark
Watching you watching me
As you unwittingly make your markI ponder… Continue reading

Dec 29 2013 Alternate Reality
Take the mesh from my eyes
And let me see the world
My reality is not your own
In your mind, I’m just a whoreFalling pieces come undone
Watch me struggle in need
You see a mask; you don’t see me
Just pretend I’m having funGone… Continue reading

Dec 29 2013 You and I
You say that I can be cruel
I think you could be right
You blame me for my anger
My bark is weaker than my bite
You sometimes do not trust me
I have only told you the truth
You love me when I’m unfaithful
I yearn… Continue reading -
Dec 29 2013 My Birthright
Teardrops misting gently upon my cheek
As I often wonder why I wander away
From what I know and all that I trust
And find solace in this game of wordplaySlowly diverging from who I once was
Some part of my old self surely… Continue reading -
Dec 29 2013 Do You?
Do you remember how it felt to touch me
Or how my kisses would stir you deep within
Can you feel the heat building when you recall
How my lips softly brushed against your skin?Do you still awaken so late at night and
Are… Continue reading -
Dec 29 2013 Little Wonders
Little feet and little hands
Curious fingers and ticklish toes
Dimpled cheeks with a smile so big
Perfected sweetly with a pudgy noseHappy baby with twinkling eyes
Giggling, laughing, so innocent
Cuddly, playful, smart as can be
An angel like this must be heaven sentA mother’s… Continue reading

Dec 29 2013 Faces
A face is a mask that all people wear
Some are worn guardedly and some without careA face depicts moods and emotions we feel
And sometimes what we see isn’t always realA face is like armor if we wear it the right… Continue reading

Dec 29 2013 The Forgetting
Dancing in the moment
Forgetting to remember
What should be priority
In this chilly month of decemberAny mind would mind
These secrets that I hide
But I am without worry
I still have dignity and prideWandering within
This tantalizing array
Of feelings and emotions
My wicked mind will playPretending… Continue reading

Dec 29 2013 Then and Now
I pour my heart upon this page
As I reminisce of memories come and gone
Knowing now what I knew not then
And having reached beyond the beyondThe passion and pleasures we must forget
Not one stolen moment, maybe two
Maybe more, but I’m not… Continue reading -
Dec 29 2013 Vengeance
The deck’s all laid out
As always, the Ace is never on top
Poor baby; you sure can’t win for lose
Because noone ever taught you when to stopIt boils in your blood
As it races through your veins
No, it’s no ordinary addiction
For your… Continue reading
