Nobody new
Is there words to describe you?
All this time I’ve known you and yet we hardly talk. There is much of you that one would see and love.
yet the charm you hold is all I seek. No matter what once was. The only thought I can have is you.
You were all that ever was and all

As I Slam Arthritic Hands Into A Broken Keyboard, Nobody Can Hear Me Screaming
In a rather egotistical
and pathetic attempt
to immortalize myself,
in something I lost,
everything.
And now that I’ve burned
all of my bridges and I’m drowning,
the only thing I have left
to do is work.
And it's not working.
And the only ones
praising my work
are little kids,
the same age I was
when I broke everything.
Lucky me.
I watch them do
the same foolish things,
reaching for

There Was Nobody
There was nobody who could come and weep at his graveside.
So we invited the misty mountain, the gusting moorland
And meandering little river where he had sat down and fished;
But, they were all previously engaged. still, we went anyway.
Someone had to lower the coffin...and songs refuse to sing
If there is nobody to listen.

TIME WAITS FOR NOBODY
On a sunny day
Right in my parlour
Laying on the couch
I was going through my phone
Then I paused for a moment
Because of the sound of our wall clock.
The time keeps ticking
Every second
You see how busy nature is
Why sitting without labouring?
Don't choose comfort
At the age of labour
Then you

The One That Nobody Wants
Nobody reaches out to me,
Few people ever call,
Every boy is repelled by me,
And no one catches me when I fall.
People tell me they hate when I join their conversation,
But there’s more they don’t see,
I have to insert myself,
Because nobody talks to me.
My artwork is criticized,
“You aren’t even good at art” they say,
They do anything to

Nobody
My poems do not have
a face and voice --
I sign them, Nobody, by choice.
As Emily suggested -- no difference
in blue and red? They are both
colors, and all are God – so,
Nobody, is my humble pod…
Content being, Nobody~ in the greater
fold of God.

Don't Worry, Nobody Will Look
I can traverse the sand in nudity.
This way nature wants us to be.
Legally, I can soak in the sun.
I can have so much fun.
Everybody else is just like me.

Nobody Knows - I'm Not Telling Why
I sit here smug, my secret in place,
With a quiet cheesy grin upon my face.
They ask me, beg me, play I-spy, and pry —
But nope! Not me folks! I'm not telling why!
They try to read signs stuck on my lips
Unzip all my social internet blips and syncs.
To see the steely poker-face stare lurking
behind the smoke-screen

Nobody
“Who is it about?”
You. It’s always been you. For months. Worth more than gold, weighing less than mud are my thoughts. Months of downplaying, cast aside, thrown to the pigs. You. It always came back to you. With your silky hair, long and dark. Soft to the touch, like one would imagine a cloud's. Your

Know Me, No Me
You don’t know me
You don’t know me
You believe you do
You don’t know me
You say that’s not true
You don’t know me
I hardly know myself
You don’t know me
I barely hold myself together
You don’t know me
I don’t know whether
You don’t know me
I walk the night
Can you even see me
I scream through the fright
Do you even hear me
Or I

Nobody Can Resist A Charmer
Attractive lady with long shining hair,
nobody can resist such a charmer;
I bet you turn guys on to have fun,
and when danger comes, you run!
The one that promises the joys of Heaven
and make him walk slowly on rainless clouds
is a true deceiver who counts just to seven,
he's ready to give a handful of fake outs!
No

Oh, Why nobody knows
My life at stake and I didn’t realize
Where there’s truth there are lies,
That good could come from bad
Sorrow from what makes you glad,
Life sets us in many varying guises
deceit in her smile, malice in her eyes.
Life is one long stretch of compromise
Hard to break free before one’s demise,
Heaven, hell, sin, salvation, all hearsay
Life and death

The Addiction Nobody Sees- Part 02
Don’t talk to me about self-control
If you’ve never cried in your bed
After trying to quit for the 50th time.
Don’t tell me “it’s just a phase”
If you’ve never looked at yourself in the mirror
And hated what you became.
And don’t you dare say, “Everybody watches ****.”
Because that’s the problem.
This generation is overdosing on pleasure
And starving for purpose.
Sex
