For So Long
For so long have I contended
And taken you for a mountain 
Only to find you a downhill..

Days of the Week
Weekdays

I like Mondays
it starts hopefully
Tuesdays 
are a setback
then it goes
downhill
all the way
to bloody Sunday...

Waiting For You In August
It’s not thirst I fear, 
but the way the sun’s course sweeps 
shadows, everything
flows downhill, and how I wait
rooted here without water....

Reincarnated
In a previous life 
I was a woman’s bicycle seat
Envied by all couch potato men
My life has gone downhill since then
Now my old friends call me Depends...

Premium Member Winter Walk
a snow-laden path
downhill sheep walk to drink-
clouds generous milk

silver waters glow
up ahead, sun beams its charms-
sheep slip-slide to quench

Why Do I Ask
Why do I have to feel like this?
Why Do I just want to cry?
I was okay hours ago,
But now,
Everything has went downhill,
All I want to ask is why,
Because I really don't have a clue....

Uphill Climb
Have a great birthday, dear Winchil, 
Uphill climb turns into glory; 
It is easy to walk downhill, 
It takes pain to gain victory.

Rolling Downhill
Tumbling down the stairs
of misfortune

Slipping on the banana peels
of time

A curtain came down
on his opening act

The Fat Lady singing

Downhill
Start fighting 
All the lying
Truth sliding
Go hiding
Relationship dying
Who is siding?
People driving
Away goes trying
Pain subsiding
Permanently underlying
No more crying
Inside sighing...
