He had great disdain for her
Enough to eliminate
The soft parts of her
He never associated the bones
To the pale girl
Feeling so unwell,
Almost as if in a Hell.
Almost like I am
Under some sort of a spell.
Hoping soon I will be well.
In a land of make belive,
a place whare I can hide,
where reality seems so far away.
just like these tears i've cried.

Anger
Breaking
Chills
Deepening
What they did to the child slowly eats me alive.
Please don't promise me forever
I've had promises before
Just give me a new dream every night
And I won't ask for more
I'm a man so much in love
but nobody cares enough,
they laugh at me behind my back,
I'm everybody's fool, oh so alone.
Work; worry;
Everyday!
Action ~ reaction!
Kindness? Never!
Needs not met.
Eventual eruption!
Somebody WILL
suffer!
My hands,
Eroded by life’s troubles,
Quake in fear,
I see it approaching,
Intense and meaningful,
Is a subtle death.
Fell on my cheek today hiding my tear. Thankyou raindrop for falling in the right place to
hide the sadness on my face.

I try to run, I try to fight no way around the pain tonight.

still have a hook
that got me book
it time
to leave this behind
am glad you were mind
the hurts a hard blow
LET GO LET GO
Sharing loneliness
On a boat in a stale pond
We keep throwing rocks
To imitate the great seas
Too cowardly to explore
Tossed high up in air
Cradled in valiant fort
Oust Archimedes
Vastness being inside the dot
White dreams ignobly sold
a home without impassioned fire in the hearth ~
leaves one with a cold heart

I walk
Hand in hand
With myself
Hoping one day
I can let the
Pain from the past
Disappear
And let myself
Be whole
It’s not our world anymore, there's more than just you and me
But there wasn’t when we carved our names into that tree.
Are you sad?
Nothing but fake news
Slow and steady
Drags me down
Kids will be kids

Took a bite of me.
Chewed a while and spit me out.
Left me in a mess.

This world is tragi-comedic in strict proportion
~ to the pathways we tread of utter distortion
Crushed faces
Shattered hearts
Lifeless inside
Now apart
Joy became hatred
Love destroyed
He's gone
And left a void
Form:
Cry
wet, silent
falling, showing, telling
boys, girls, pillow, tissue
smiling, enjoying, rejoicing
happy, glad
smile
Evil rushes in
Annihilating my soul
Whaling my hurt heart
Destroying my torn being
Evil crushes down within

Rainy day
Wet dog on pavement
Looking in
Seeing me
Sit by the cosy fireside
Ignoring its plight.
intermittant storms
rage in the sky and my heart
my unshed tears burn
in spite of my grief
the sun shines and life goes on
