Hi my name is Candace. I am 36 y/o, a deep thinker, love alternative, blues, bluegrass & 80's music, reading, collecting books and candles, watching movies and some TV, sweet red wine, the ocean, poetry, good conversation, laughter, rain, lots of coffee, and random moments with special people. I am divorced with no children. I grew up in Ohio (closer to Pittsburgh PA) and now live in Florida because snow sucks (sorry lol) and I can't stand weather that cold! I've lived in Florida for a dozen years. I also lived in San Diego for 3 years. I have 4 tattoos and one special piercing hehe. I have been a member of Ezboard/Yuku since October 26, 2000. I am ecclectic and kind of eccentric.

Cut Me Crazy


You never cared just how much you meant to me.
Thoughtless words strangled a love that could have been.
Take your scissors and cut me, cut me crazy,
Just destroy me, don't contact my next of kin.

You convinced yourself we were not meant to be -
Never mind our souls answered to the same name.
Take your scissors and cut me, cut me crazy;
Have you done enough to make me feel the shame?

You insisted that you had to be set free
To find yourself, your passion, the girl next door.
Take your scissors and cut me, cut me crazy.
I had to hear "I don't love you anymore"…

I wonder why that would make me sad, selfish me!
You made fun of my tears, and you called me names.
Take your scissors and cut me, cut me crazy.
I was facing my worst fears, not playing games!

Just how intrinsically worth it was she
That she got all her chances and then mine too.
Take your scissors and cut me, cut me crazy.
That girl stole you from me before I met you!

I was never worth a poem, only she.
I'm not worth anything to you anymore.
Take your scissors and cut me, cut me crazy,
Kick me in the heart just a little bit more.

I was never worth a flower, only she.
You could barely stand to hold me in your arms.
Take your scissors and cut me, cut me crazy.
I sadly don't possess those exotic charms.

Deny it, deny it, put the blame on me,
Whatever will make it easier on you.
Take your scissors and cut me, cut me crazy.
I was the one hanging on and staying true.

Your friends, they hate me, call me toxic, mock me -
Put them in my place, see how long they would last.
Take your scissors and cut me, cut me crazy.
My part was cancelled, killed off from your life's cast.

On one thing I guess that we can all agree -
I must deserve to be ripped apart for good.
Take your scissors and cut me, cut me crazy.
When you said you loved me, I misunderstood --

A stranger floats by, suddenly there's no "weE?
Rapidly it's poems and dreams of someone new.
Take your scissors and cut me, cut me crazy.
Yes, that really is the way it is for you.

When your next love turns away, sips her coffee,
Oh, how you'll lament about her hair, her smile.
Take your scissors and cut me, cut me crazy.
I guess she'll keep you distracted Efor awhile.

I hope you never fail, I hope you're happy
With the decision that you so firmly made.
Take your scissors and cut me, cut me crazy
As I ask myself why all that time I stayed??

You win, I lose, there is nothing left to be.
I was never good enough to fill your void.
Take your scissors and cut me, cut me crazy.
Please, just finish off the life that you destroyed.

Morning Coffee

If I ever wake from this nightmare,
If I wake to find that you still care...
The first thing I will do
Is tell you how I love you;
Even before the morning coffee.

If I ever wake from this nightmare,
If I wake to find that you are still there...
The next thing I will say
Is please don't ever go away;
Even before the morning coffee.

If I ever wake from this nightmare,
If I wake to find love that we still share,
I'd forever be the best that I can be
And maybe you would never leave me.
Even before the morning coffee.

You mean the world to me,
Even more than the morning coffee.

"Soulmate"

Surrounded by utter darkness
We stood in illumination,
The sparks of our souls I confess
Bonding in deep rumination.
The sunken sun was incited
To rise with splendor in the night
When our twin souls were united,
Strong enough, all fears we could fight.
We could calm the thunderous storms
That bred inexorable ghosts,
The ones who assumed shapeless forms
And to our terrors played the hosts.
I saw an eerie reflection of myself painted in his eyes
For we shared the same collection
Of laughter, tears, and weary sighs.
He was wise beyond earthly years,
Knew the power a touch could hold;
Our souls might well have been mirrors,
Both fought the torture of the cold.
My weighty wraith was then revived,
Its eager heart quickly beating;
These lonely years it had survived
To know this one precious meeting.
I wrapped my arms around his own
Set to bask in his desire;
Instead I found myself alone
Burning in rejection's fire.
His gaze rested over my head,
His soul passed swiftly right through me;
I tried to trail but fell instead,
Tripping on what refused to be.
I saw that my heart was misplaced
And knew my soulmate would not stay;
From the skies the raindrops then raced,
Slowly chasing the sun away.
When finally he disappeared,
My world again was dark and cold,
And as I had always most feared,
No soul remained for mine to hold.
