The Bad Guy
Soon as I feel the pain I notice my avoidance I want something but I’m afraid I’m not sure what I’m doing I can’t force you off my mind but I think your better off if I make myself the bad guy Dissatisfied with my choices but I still keep going You come across my mind...

Self Sabotage
Things can suddenly take their toll, Emptiness creates an even bigger hole. Your only company is a shadow on the wall, Because you purposely avoid every text and call. Can't bear the thought of making small talk, So you return to bed dragging your feet as you walk. You throw yourself down letting out a deep groan, Pushing loved ones away just to be left alone. Hoping each...

Echos of Sabotage
Mistakes, like tire tracks on the highway, to my dismay, I am persistently navigating wrong, trying to find my way. Why am I still a student who cannot learn life’s lessons? Each test is déjà vu of my shortcomings. This is sabotage! The unsettling presence of an inner enemy. Stealthily sowing seeds of doubt, Like a whisper in...

Bad Season
How could you do that to yourself? You don't even have the slightest idea of how it felt. You are just making things up, You have no idea how hard it is to coverup. All the pain I went through, Seems meaningless after seeing myself with no clue. Tried so hard to not look at others. But kept self sabotaging one after...

Faux Pas
For those who lack conviction Aspirations stay but a mirage And for those crafting mountains from mole hills Detriment a deadly barrage Believers of strange eyes upon them Flaunt shame as a wristed corsage And without the courage to soften their hackles Lie confined in their mind's dank garage Jongleurs of fabled failures Treat their worry to massage Subjecting the rest of their dreadful days To...

Build You a Nest
Similar to how Platypi secrete Poison from their feet the heels of your lips rips my heart apart soul surrender modern art Poison guise covert convalescence from the claws of your eyes Laws of lies' essence intrude to conclude an earnest feeling dealing with the fact that I love you deeply And much like Platypi I am often confused for something that I'm not but in love with you this I'm as certain as Platypi are to amphibians which they're not...

Love Inside a Car
Let it be just a kiss: Long or short that you miss, Your car's door firmly shut I don't want to hear "But-" Yes, all glasses rolled up; You shut your questions up! Love inside a stopped car Is taking things too far, Even for a filled bar, It could one's image mar, One's career further mar, On one's nerves it might...

Headshaker
No way to explain it No need to analyze No rationale, so incredible And no meaningful prize No possible motive Except maximum self The conscious world ceases Brains put on the shelf Bad habits are just that Unhealthy routines Crossing borders, explosive Loaded, meaningless fiends And, yes, if G-d let's you You'll endure this storm too And the loathing, disgust Will fade into view Until the next time When the devil...

Birthday Sabotage
It's the 3rd of the month An excellently important day 5 decades or so ago, My parents made a little 'roll in the hay' Tonight, I'm spoiling myself Going out for dinner el solo Down to my favourite local Bistro For Salmon Wellington, Cab Sav and Gateau Made sure I phoned ahead, with 3 weeks to go Booked a delicious pescatarian meal And a table outside,...

Seditious Sabotage
He runs around Cleaning up her mess Secretly wishing her To let down her dress ...and stand She follows him to death Making him pay Holding her heart While he prays ...to god They submit to rules Acting like fools Let someone else take the wrap Comfort lines their beds On satin cases they lay their head As colored pegs line the map ...of a world Unowned Written by Trudy Schrader on 05-28-2022...

Self-Sabotage
Self-sabotage Self-sabotage; it’s all I know. There is no way I am letting anybody get close. Self-sabotage; it’s all I have got. If you want my love then I will be sure to be gone. Why try to love me? I can’t be loved. Why try to like me? I have given up. Why try to talk to me when...

Hid all the menus Windows did Then shared the links throughout it's grid And spread the way for what is thread To mock the balkers for their tread And make their lives a living led For all the time that's lost till dead...
