To my face you are kindness itself:
cheerful, always upbeat,

but in your anonymous blog
you rip me apart.

You press your thumb and forefinger on each side,
hold, pull and rend,
and rupture my very innards.

You focus on me,
my life, my words, my actions and my body
like you are a Celestron Telescope
searching for every single crater and irregularity.

With

Awe So You Say part 3

Awe, So You Say 
Part 3 
Too many years have past 
Where have you been? 
Across the river 
Water current flows silver 
Harmony beyond the horizon 
Together as one 
No more loneliness 
Serene through a drift 
Feather sky delicate 
Morning coffee surrender devotion 
Awe, so you say  
The one you love 
Your eyes sink

Bipolar Love

She says I’m so fun,
then claims that we’re done,
she says she hates me,
then wants my babies.
first she wants her man,
then says, “Go use your hand.”
She stares at my eves,
then says I’m full of lies.

The aggravation…
the resignation…
I think I’ve had enough
of her bipolar love.
Bipolar love.

She dreams of houses,
then only grouses,
wants to show me off,
then snaps, “Just

breathing not with gulls but air,
I gasp when I wake from nightmares,
I wish my heart gave up as sleeping
the wraiths will snatch my death.
There's ground dust to bare,
and the memories won't dare,
not with my living memories
and cancellation of the fleet.
What talents snatch as the flair
sleeps on one side of the despair
and angels flew away
and you

Black Narcissus

Staring at her reflection in
ocular mirrors, learning my
last blessings, creeping past
poltergeists during marauder
inspections while I transcribe
her flesh on caesura, pleading
with the Pleiades for soprano
notes to stay on his alto clefs,
hanging gardens in her image

Obambulate mistress, with
Black Narcissus as my witness
Extravagant solivagant born
from river spirits, lascivious
nymphs want to hear their
voice echo in mountain cliffs
carried by arid

I Promise

I promise I'll love you 
Till the end of my life 
Not just like anybody 
But like my wife 

I promise I'll be there 
Always by your side 
Holding your hand in mine 
Forever in my heart you reside

I promise I'll accept you 
The way you are 
No matter your flaws
Just be as you are

The Love That Once Filled Our Hearts

Thinking of how love once filled our hearts,
From the first day we met, we were never far apart.
More love than I ever believed I could feel—
I never imagined that kind of love could be real.
But then I felt it, and it was phenomenal.
I look back on the joy that bloomed in my chest,
And remember the

Theirs No Time For Us

Theirs No Time For Us 
Time is fading away 
So many burdens to carry 
The hour-glass is draining 
Our relationship is dying 
Our bodies are decaying 
Our minds are forgetting 
Our youthful days are gone 
There's no time for us 
We took each other for granted 
We can’t live forever 
So many smiles left behind

To forgive is human too

Of what use again is my tear to you?
I plead, I cry, I try to soothe with care,
Yet you ignore me, and call me a fraud.
I know I betrayed your wholehearted love—
But if to err is human, then to forgive is human too.

Alta

When I walked in the room,
I saw no sign of you,
your shoes or your jacket new,
even your car was gone.
Called up all of our friends,
knew nothing on their ends,
no message did you send,
or note that said ‘so long.’
Called police panicking,
three days ’till your missing,
they got you on the first ring,
but would not speak to me.
Now

How can I tell if you really care?
How can I know you'll always be there?
There've been so many times in the past
I've had relationships that didn't last.
I don't know if I can go through this again,
I'm not sure that it's worth all that pain.
I managed to keep all the others at bay.
I even found that

Back Home, My Own

Some said, ”Stay 'way from her,
that girl never brings no good.”
Some said, ”She’s just a prude,
don’t know a good time like she should.”
Some said, ”She’s much too loose,
she’d gonna leave you with a disease.”
Some said, ”She’s an ice-queen,
won’t commit, nothin’ but a tease.”

I find myself intrigued,
this girl that can’t fit in,
those walking contradictions
always make me

Committed

Potential is not a promise-
and that's all I've seen in you.

I've given every opportunity-
but you've never followed through.

(You once) treated me with kindness-
but I deserve much more.

I deserve a kind of love-
I've not experienced before.

I deserve consistency-
and I deserve the truth.

And I deserve my wishes-
(and all of) my dreams to come true.

I've come to learn

You call me by my name, too intentional
I gather all the courage to think more rational
You always held me when I’m available
But truly who am I, for you negotiable?

Your time is priceless, I cannot bargain
Mine is typical, but I can always sustain
I never asked for more than everything
Just be part of yourself, I can
