My insecurities haunt me.

Ice cream sliced like pie.
Dark fudge floats in the center.
Crumbled oreo crust
Floating in hot fudge.
Ambrosia

Trying to normalize 
My differences
They took my spine
And crumbled it
As a stale bread

Now they’re enveloping 
Their parts
With my pieces

So they can taste better...

rose to the sun,
burned and swallowed
in a crimson smoke gust;
every meek whisper
melted to one,
and a lullaby lingered
while streets crumbled 
to dust....

Increase his dosage.

Couldn't believe what I'd seen.
Planes hit the towers
as they crumbled in horror.
We will always remember.

You can't change your past,
but your past can change you.
NO matter what you do,
NO matter where you are
Some things just wont change,
Your world can currupt,
just by ones fault......

is what is left crumbled 
over on the other side
it sits waiting for a song
a dance as it holds up the wall
love will bring them together 
as long as i have hope...

My Agape all surrendered,
As Philia was knocked down.

Ludus and Eros were tightly handcuffed,
I was nurtured by the plur,
Crumbled for etcetera....

Here lies the grave of innocence

Where despair tainted charity

Where hope broke in crumbled pretense

Betrayed by darkened clarity.

lay crumbled on floor
her face alabaster white
red lips as though they had bled
     no life anymore
     beautiful blue eyes shut tight
     puppeteer had cut the thread.

We are boxes of matches,
Some crammed with chances,
Some rattle th last few,
Some too chafed to spark a new flame,
Some crumbled with th rain,

My last matchstick,
I want to strike it for you....

Saddled with this task
burden
beast
of razor colour scheme
years of crumbled paint
the dust in lungs
a poisoned dream
still clinging
holding breath
to clear the air
between the stitches of a seam...

Cobbler fresh from the oven
A piping hot peach
Crumbled topping crisp to eat
Sprinkled with sugar
Such a tasty treat
Top with cream
Sweet!





Inspired by Laura McKenzie's "Sweet Treat" contest....

An intention so false.
An excuse, nothing more.
You've washed away truth,
And dried up on the shore.
I saw something in you.
But that crumbled away.
So, to save me,
I can no longer stay....
