The face of my nightmares hiding in the darkest shadows of my mind
With distance you have started to fade and fall in ranks
Following years of comfort, I am forced to look at my fears in the light
Veil to veil, I feel my temperature rise along with my rage
Living in silence will never be able to fully heal a laceration like this
Positioned in the flames my skin screams and my lungs sing in tune
I swam the length of oceans just to receive puddles in your trail
I cried to gods I had no faith in as a pathetic attempt for asylum
I let you mold me in your image, yet it was not enough
I made your crimes against me seem like petty theft
I acted as if your words were the law and the lies made sense
I begged for a mercy you had no intention on giving me
I manufactured a world where your actions were poetic
I watched as you picked me apart brick by brick by brick effortlessly
I allowed your calculated manipulation to be seen as misunderstandings
I lied to the embers to keep them from burning you alive
I deemed myself insane for the way my mind worked around the madness
I gave everything and still I fell short of holding even a small place in your mind
Eyes heavy and fixated on mine, your voice echoing in my ears
You may take this with a grain of salt, but you have to know I’m sorry
You consume my thoughts in every way and losing you is my biggest regret
And yet both our lips were sealed
And you had no remorse
My strength to scream was lost in midnight tears and haunted days
Crowd pushing through, two paths arise, shout or shush
Biting my tongue, I swallow my spiel and let the space grow
Replacing a bled through bandage is easier than getting new stitches
Silence might not heal cuts, but neither will salt
Unbeelievable!
Humble and Blondebee’s first date didn’t go with a bang.
He took her to the Kinema to see ‘Killer Bee’, aw man!
I can’t wait to see this film, it looks so cool!
It’s about an assassin who targets The Queen; it rules!
The two of them watched and Humble was amazed;
Blondebee unfortunately didn’t feel the same,
And as they were eating at the Nectar Queen,
Blondebee tore into the film,
And Humble couldn’t beelieve what he was hearing.
Surely you liked it? I loved it so much!
Sorry, I guess it’s a boy’s film, where is the love?
Love? It’s an action movie and Stingy did rescue the girl bee.
Oh, but wasn’t it long-winded and boring? Couldn’t you see?
I would have preferred a romantic comedy.
Humble thought ‘I’m in one…it’s called reality.’
You must have loved the car chases and flying stinger’s flying?
It wasn’t realistic. Well of course not, it’s a film…Jeez, I’m dying…
And then she asked what they were going to do tomorrow.
After tonight? That’s a hard act to follow.
I thought we would see the comedian That Bee.
Oh, he’s not that funny, if you ask me.
Just give it a try.
I gave the movie a try. When are we going to do something I like?
The day after tomorrow, we can do what you want.
Ok, I guess we’ll see That Bee then, won’t that bee fun!

A Letter You Won’t Send, Pt. 2
I thought the first letter would be the last.
But pain doesn’t end with words;
It leaks through the cracks,
forcing my hand to write again.
I said goodbye already,
Yet here I am,
Bleeding the same goodbye twice.
We broke no contact two days ago.
I poured my whole heart out to you.
It didn’t change much.
You said you came back because losing me as a lover was enough
But any more would destroy you.
And I agreed, because though I will never stop loving you,
Who am I to deny my own greed?
You said you found a new girl at another school.
That’s nice, I guess.
Funny, though
I hurt you first
But you made sure to hurt me the worst.
I’ve concluded that love only works
when it’s between me and God.
No man could ever take His place.
But I put you so high
I forgot how to let you go.
I tell my friends you’re the worst,
Then cry when you’re hurting.
Ignore you in a crowded room,
Then, I dream of you in the clouds.
Ashamed of how easy I am,
How quickly I fall for every trick.
Hurt people hurt people.
That’s true.
But worse is how much it breaks me
to fall for your random “I love you,
Your desperate cries to make me stay.
All of it was useless.
Because you never really cared.
You never really loved me.
You only loved the idea of me.
And I
I tried to save you.
But the idea of me
It is the worst thing I can offer.
Still, it sucks how I still love you.
Some sick, endless game.
How does one love another
Yet let go so quickly?
I could do it to cope.
Maybe I don’t know why.
It’s just another way to survive.
Lost in the shambles of a broken stream
Emotions failing and affections locked-in
Just in the nick of giving up
You swirled in and played the cop
It was all good at first feelings glowed
It got all bad as false feelings showed
Just like a switch married to the wall
You turned me on then turned me off
You made me believe, love can be selfless.
You made me believe, love can be selfish.
You made me believe, love can be real pure.
You made me believe, love can be so dark.
Once, your smile beams on me with luck
Once, your voice rendered my heart unlocked
Once, your giggles expel everywhere my sadness lurks
Once, there was light now darkness lurks
Though I be concerned with what you feel
What you really want is not even real
Once upon a time there was a you
Once upon a time, I'm glad I got to love you
I was your rebound girl, you just used me to get over her
My feelings never mattered; I was just there for your pleasure.
Now you are over her I am out the door.
My love never mattered?
I fell in love with your family, your mom and dad… were they in on the plan?
I just didn't matter, I was just there for your pleasure
I can't believe no one cared about my heart. I didn't matter?
I was just there for your comfort so now that you don't hurt , I am toss to the ground
I am broken and wrecked now that you are on to your new lover, the love of your life. You got your pleasure and I never mattered. I was your rebound girl
Sonnet 21, Old Hiking Shoes
(Spenserian Format)
Don't grieve for me here on the attic shelf;
we're joined infinitely as one, you said.
In an old moldy box now, by myself;
my place was there tucked well under your bed.
Don't grieve for me here within the dark dread;
the days and nights meld together as one.
Reflect on happy times, with stronger tread;
sweet dreams now reign as dead leaves in the sun.
Memories fade away after you're done;
the old just crumble away into dust.
Remember all the mountain trails we'd run?
Fear, you showed none, only honor and trust.
Don't grieve I'm here above your clarinet;
on the top shelf, right beside your train set.
Stardust fading into the moonlight on an autumnal evening,
One lonely night and all the bad memories cling,
I fell in love and we weren't even something,
Whilst I was nothing, you became my everything.
A curse to be a dreamer, being everything and nothing,
Love for a lost cause is poison and that's the thing,
The day I let you go, I realised I took a rose for a ring,
Oh it dawned upon me that we weren't even a thing.
Your eyes tied me to your chest,
Where my broken heart could rest,
Us dancing a tango around the mooncrest,
I only ever loved once, goodbye, my best.
I will never let you go from my heart, for you are the heart,
Rejuvenation from flaming endings will make mess of every start,
Pieces of you I try to find in every piece of art,
From my silly love feelings you will never be apart.
I hear the squelch of sorrow nearing me once again,
pummelling with the purple pulsation in the frail vein.
Sadness encloses the mind-soul-body trinity,
the sound of its footfall trails the echo of eternity.
In the dwindling day at the edge of tarnished twilight,
the halcyon horizon sighs in air of demolished delight.
As the sunset colors spin the astral strands thin,
the formless fleet of cloud in breeze turns to violin.
After the sky-scan it’s time for my bird to return
to the nest, and ride the radiant rays it fails to yearn.
It glides my heart on the outspread worn out wings
over the cadenced clouds of the sonorous strings.
At the edge of tinged dusk after the flight of the day,
the crimson sun sips the sea before slipping away,
and dissolves its colors in the water tossing weary,
gloom from horizon to the wet shore tides of tears carry.
With sparkling streaks the waves rise and fall sadly,
after they break the pearls from moist eyes roll calmly.
Quiet empathy arms of still embrace they fling,
the violin tune of sunset melody in the air I hear ring.
Our locked lips interweave with the calypso of night,
when the seductive song of silence the stars write.
Oscillating yearning serenades the barcarole of heart,
transforms the tenor of music for the requiem to start.
When beyond the broken sky the nightingale flies away,
from the whispering debris arises the aria of dismay,
as the shards of my shattered heart get strewn
in the torrent of tears on violin strings resonating sad tune.
Silence whispers beside my empty bed,
Even loneliness whimpers to flee my side.
The darkness deepens the starkness of my fear,
Yet my mind is made — I won’t beg heartache back.
Of what use is a marriage in which love exists
Only in my mind, never in my home?
Whines and nags were the only music~
the winds played when my soul begged for rest.
Today I met your footsteps that went outdoors
And begged never to be allowed back in —
Even if your knocks dent my door with persistence.
My mind finds peace where you have hidden it.
So long as life befriends my soul and mind,
So loneliness finds peace within its depth,
So I can sleep and close my eyes without~
the fear that a knife might pierce a hole in my heart,
So emptiness can bring back my sanity.
Please—never reply to the plea of my loneliness,
To fill it with the trouble twelve years taught it to love.
And never mind emptiness begging you
to stock it with your figure filled with hatred, not love.
I know you left me,
But you're still around,
How can it be,
When you're in the ground.
I loved you more than anyone,
And you I really miss,
The time we had is done,
It ended without a kiss.
Once I thought I felt you touch,
Your cold hand on my face,
The warmth is what I miss so much,
I wish you weren't in that place.
I couldn't feel you anymore,
Since that first night,
You were standing in the door,
But something wasn't right.
I already knew I lost you,
Though you were right in front of me,
There was nothing I could do,
What happened was meant to be.
You will always be in my heart,
Your memory will always remain,
They can never tear that apart,
One day we will be together again.
