O gossamer, thy needles.
They shine like suns at play.
Bands of fate in full? She pulls!
Faster grow, O hay!
Erosion, art thou harbinger?
Kingdom gone? Returned?
Battlefield, thy prey! O cur!
How my heart has burned!
Tremendous time, thy measure.
Each minute to work out.
Poisoner, thy pleasure!
Dismay, decay, doubt!
Fine flickering in free fall?
Plight of a far-flung hope?
Funeral, thy darkest pall!
Invincible rope!
Creek trickling down the cliff?
Cold the water gets.
Faster, peasant! Pole that skiff!
He who shirks regrets!
Thistle in an empty field?
Spartan on the shield.
Wound in side that never healed.
Heart-blood a-congealed.
O xylophone, thy plaintive note.
Balloons love to float.
O ye travelers, pack thy tote!
Red the riddle rote...
Life is often fleeting. You hold it in your hand.
It slips right through your fingers just like so much sand.
And the harder that you grasp it the quicker that it goes
And what it all amounts to no one really knows.
I once saw a picture of a child in the sun.
Laughter there upon the lips, eyes so filled with fun.
I once saw a picture of a mother’s painful tears.
Live your life in moments, don’t worry about the years.
I once heard a story. A lesson to be learned.
Someone set a fire and everything was burned.
And there, beneath the ashes was a diamond wrapped in gold.
Though everything must perish, love will not grow old.
I remember when I knew you as a friend.
And now it all is gone but not forgotten.
When I see u i feel something right inside of my heart,
I try to act different like I don't care,but I really hate being apart,
I know I've changed and you have too but is it for the good,
Cuz one thing that will never change i loveu dont even know if it could,
All I'm saying is like brenton wood is take another chance on me,
Cuz my love is way to strong for me to leave things the way that they be,
It's really frustrating and makes me mad but I know I am to blame,
I treated us and I was wrong and acted like it was a game,
If people know that they hate to lose then games they shouldn't play,
There is a saying that u don't know what you have until it is taken away,
And after all this happens to u and then you are all alone wondering if you can get it back or is it 4 ever gone.
Kicked in for crying,
Now there's a hole.
Put up a curtain,
To cover my soul.
Why can't I leave here ?
My love is all gone,
I never imagined
I would let this go on.
20 years been chipping
At my hearts home,
I barely noticed
Until I was gone.
Where did I go ?
Where is the Me?
Open the cracks,
For everyone to see.

Today I felt the weight again -
at least I'm feeling now.
For months I floated, distant,
watching myself from somewhere else.
Now I write, I climb, I sweat,
learning who I am beneath the numbness.
I saw you after all this time,
traveled far just to confirm
what my heart already knew.
You walked toward me, familiar
but changed, and every word
I'd planned dissolved like sugar cubes
into black coffee.
Your eyes told me the truth
the spark had died, the door
was closed. I broke apart,
apologized for all the ways
I loved you poorly, hurt you,
became someone I despise.
We talked like strangers after,
polite and careful, building walls
where bridges used to be.
Now I ride the late bus home,
crying into empty streets,
carrying love that has nowhere to go.
-
I love you both with all my heart,
But Mum, you tore that love apart.
You made me choose, you made me cry,
While Dad was left to wonder why.
You spoke of him with poisoned tongue,
Bad words for ears still far too young.
You painted him in shades of wrong,
And made me feel I don’t belong.
He wasn’t perfect, neither are you,
But love should never be cut in two.
You didn’t let me have my say,
You slowly pushed him far away.
I grieved a man who didn’t die,
He lived, he waited, I wondered why.
You shut him out without a trace,
And left a space I couldn’t replace.
I missed his voice, his laugh, his face,
I missed the way he held me safe.
And though he lived, it felt the same
As if he’d gone and I was to blame.
Let children love, don’t make them choose,
It’s not a game, it’s hearts you lose.

I wore my sins like velvet lace,
Then set your garden all ablaze.
I never once said I was kind--
I only promised not to mind.
The chandelier you loved? It fell.
I laughed and called it “doing well.”
Your rules were quaint, but far too tight--
I loosened them with fire and bite.
Abandon all grace here, my dear--
The wine is sharp, the end is near.
The guests are ghosts, the cake’s a knife--
Let’s toast to your once-perfect life.
I dance in boots of shattered glass,
My lipstick’s poison, bold as brass.
The night is young, the mess is mine--
Now smile, love. You’re doing fine.
remember when we
slept ><

When i’m gone
They’ll all have moved on
I'm already a ghost
Haunting over the life id already lost
They’ve never saw me turn into a adult
I moved too fast
When i lost so young when i was gone i my tears taste like salt
I knew id never last
I sat waiting for god wondering why he’s running late
I stood waiting for love
When it came it was a shock now i understand my wait
He was always there watching from above
I may not be alive
but i have my family so i'm happy as i know how to be
watch my ghost thrive
Sacrifice, Strength, silence, and safety is what my closest taught me
For my mother who is caring, for my mother who is strong
For my sister who taught me everything for my cousins who beat me till i was strong, i missed them when i moved on
For my brother who taught me how to take love for the one who taught me me how to let go when their gone
For my father, who may one day choose me over his bong
Not sure how to carry on
Everything I love is now gone
Did not see the end in sight
Took you like a thief in the night
I know it was God's will
Doesn't make it easy still
On my knees I have knelt
While my heart starts to melt
Thought together we would grow old
Now your body is lifeless and cold
Not real sure how to act
Still trying to wrap my head around the facts
Nothing more I can really do
100% lost with out you
So many ways that this could end
Yet no idea where to begin
Bodies drained I have nothing more
Just laid out on the floor
Hoping this is the end for us both
I thank the Father, Son, and Holly Ghost.

Five years have passed, we’re a little older
This spring gets warmer every day
It’s in the eye of the beholder
The summer starts with rains of May
You took advantage of this year
You’ve got no more of age to gain
No more of struggling with fear
No more of worries and the pain
Now all these things are left for me
Compounded with the young green leaves
Your garden’s peaceful harmony
I have to live up to all this
Our google albums help a lot
Your marigolds are kept in bloom
Your roses and forget-me-nots
They blossom brightly in my room.
“Tomorrow Already Gone"
Tomorrow
already gone
these stories are for you
you will follow me
before too long

"She's mad, but she's magic. There's no lie in her fire."
Tell me you hate me
Tell me you love me
Tell me life is better without me.
You tell me you want me
Then tell me you don't.
You ask me to stay, so I won't.
You say that I'm beautiful
Then you look away
Tomorrow will be a much different day.
I felt you in my soul
And I gave you my heart.
You toyed with me from the start.
When you realize you want me
I'll already be gone.
Afterall, you asked me to move on.
Gone two flowers
Thrown to the wind
Never came back.
Two white flowers
Hide in the sun
Put in a vase.
Pick two lilies
By white lady
Bought by old mom.
Two lovers care
A white puppy
Pose for selfie.
God below us now
With each as all there is
And miracle, a sudden word,
Flooding thoughts
We cannot faster spill,
Until a fear of drowning
In the merging all could be;
Til we become as one;
One and done and free.
While none can say the name
Of two or twenty, not of fame
The greatest gift is love bestowed
To those whose candle bears no flame.
Only life is immortal,
Dancing once with each of us
Then moving on;
Leaving us to grieve
For all that’s gone.
