YOU TOLD ME
You told me you could never leave You told me you would never say goodbye You told me you never wanted to be free But you told me a lie—just another goodbye Your words were empty, your promises all broken You had me believing, but now I just cry Your ‘I love yous’ were just lies you told” Trying to forget but...

Empty instructions
Twisting and turning words as if I'm unsure, Because your experiencing your own internal hurt, immediately relating others stories to your own without knowing, Everything that happened within the story, Bits n pieces without compassion of any kind, How can you speak love without that fruit on your vine, Who will listen or take heed to words without compassion, If it's...

Premium Member Always the Empty Room
"An empty room that defies explanation is a timeless mystery only to those that don't remember the reason" Quote by the Poet Maybe someone had memories of the room. Maybe they were all long forgotten by gloom. There was eeriness, as if inaudible whispers remained, Bouncing echoes off the walls, neglected and stained. A chill was imagined even on sunny...

Premium Member In His Empty Room
“In my empty heart – only memories” by poet Today our mother had his bed removed and took posters down – even things he’d drawn depicting stuff of which she’d disapproved. Those posters that revealed his heart – all gone! She took his dresser out, and all his clothes she folded up to donate to Good Will. His nice suits in the...

Echo Enduring Empty Voice
Is Echo anything beyond a voice? Narcissus is a very handsome man. Is love an obligation, or a choice? It hasn’t varied since the world began. Narcissus is a very handsome man. He sees his own reflexion, and he knows: it hasn’t varied since the world began. To love an egotist engenders woes. He sees his own reflexion, and he knows he is his...

Rooms are Always Empty
Your shoes are still by the door. I stepped around them this morning like stepping around a memory that doesn’t want to go. The hallway light flickers now. It didn’t used to. I thought maybe your voice would echo if I left the door open long enough, but the house only hums, like it’s trying to forget you ever lived here. I found your notebook. The pages were still warm, some...

"In life we learn from love, hurts, mistakes and from the ones we have trusted." By Poet My heart once held love overflowing, joy was bursting at the seams and glowing. That was before you came along, you did me so very wrong. Filling my loving heart with pain, I will never do this again. Now I will guard my hurt and...

You Left Me Empty
You Left me, Empty. You Left with my heart, That’s why I’m empty. You took all my laughter, And you replaced it with tears. You used up the love in my heart, And you take up all the space in my mind....
