The flowers of my youth,
may have long since given up,
their struggle to bloom.
But there is still beauty
hidden behind these
battle scars of age…

Which stepped out view
A window's, to contain
Given up on
Freshly aired lured
All of him cured
Of sea breadths, which, a-glow
Spark religion....

Having given up the world as unreachable
Now took hold the yellow disc
and wrested what was left
into some sort of plan....

But I won’t have them

On tears of a faulty choice;
“I have a mom, it's not you”

a stone is set deep in the heart, and it grieves me deeply
to watch as she walks with burden, please lighten her soul...

Pretty smiles
Deceitful laughs
Unanswered cries
Lonely days

Fairytales don’t come true
Liars prey on soft hearts
And they seek to devour you....

No Cure
"You Need Help!" they say to me constantly,
and so I agree to begin attending therapy,
but I never go. I have given up.
I know that there's no cure or treatment
for my kind of "messed up"....

i can make a difference
hope in the midst of despair
the world may seem at its darkest
but i've not given up on life
you and i can make it beautiful again
one dream at a time

I got the idea of being there
I constructed myself at your being
I gave myself in your image
I was given up
far from happy psychoanalysts
faithful to your beauty...

New Year's Resolution Devolution
Sue’s given up picking her nose
And wiping the slime on her clothes
But what she does more
Is what I abhor…
She’s eating the fluff from her toes!

children like each other any way
Two stubborn brothers were in a little imbroglio
Their annoyed wives had given up on peace
Their children’s cousin’s hearts were rich and full
Ironed in love and unity, nary a cross word or crease...

In the sky
Because my dear
You fought for me
When I had given up...

Seemed an improbable feat
But they refused a defeat
