Another Couch
--------------------
How do I find myself here again
On a couch one more time
Another call that I should make
An irony sublime

We split a few weeks ago
A party I've been having
But She just called me so I'd know
What...

Delivered by eyes impassive to his existence

While no strength held him high.
The yearning in his eyes hollowed with...

Goodbye To You
I'm standing here; still; but the world I feel is spinning
For every action there is a reaction so when I lose you're winning
What's my purpose? I'm hurt by this; not knowing the reason I exist
Unsurpassable...

and stealing from the cookie jar was the biggest crime?

It took many years for me to understand,
Realize that, yes…

The girl who was always giving, from a heart
Who lived to hand out her brand of hope…

But, I found… no, not...

it's something that gets worse over time
affecting the body's, eyes, ears, soul, and mind

Knowledge gained liberates or mutilates.
Ramifications of reality’s realm reached
make your insides want to abandon the body ship.
Rocking back and forth as you hurl dry acidic pain
expelled by the force of shell shocked lucidity:
You’re not good...

Helen is hysterical, so witty you laugh until you cry,
She’s a little spit-fire, 4 foot 11 -- a bit of a short fry,
Now I can say that because she knows it’s said in jest,
There is...

What I'd give to be that cigarette between your lips.
I moved your way I caught your eye. 
What I'd do to be that glass from which you sip.

Premium Member Oblivion The Addicts Point Of View
The need to escape is truly vast
Usually from memories of the past
Or a hungry need to get away
From harsh happenings of today

When heart pain smothers your silent voice

What are all these tales we’re supposed to romanticize?
Through all that indifference and hatred,
Soon the length of our armor will make us drown
Can’t you see we can’t support our own weight?

with no strange sounds to induce its mystery;
lingering with sadness is the loneliest heart
opening the pages of an unfinished diary...
as I sit alone drinking my bitter wine,
but it should...

But what about the love that leaves bruises behind
The love that whispers sweet nothings by day
But turns into thunder when you disobey
The love that says "I didn't mean...

I am paid not work
but what am I to do
the festive trimmings are not attached
so the perk is an useless quirk and

While finding you
I was losing a part of mine
Nobody helped me for once
But the faith to get you was there in tones

There was something that always stopped me
But I always dreamt of you loving me
