Short Overplayed Poems

I feel dull, I'm drowning in me.
It's worse than in a puddle of pee.
Gnawing at my wilting health,
I'm choking on my desperate self.
Dreaming of being something new,
slipping into hates cocoon.
Breaching up enough to see
reaching out to those like me,
and overplayed-with, used up tool,
Makes yourself a desperate fool....

Beautiful is just a word
The same as
Kind
Attractive
Repetition
Doesn't give it any significance
Do you know me
See me
Own me
Saying it won't make
Anything more beautiful
Overuse
Overplayed
It ain't pretty
No meaning in your words
No significance in your words
Don't call me beautiful
I'm myself
I'm more than
Just "a beautiful lady like" me...

it's quiet,
suffering, it's a quiet &
limp thing. questions
open like books
unread, under(stood),
dusty splintered shelf.
unable to maintain the
self contained war 
silent film overlayed
descriptions over &
overplayed; the maid
refusing to leave,
can't breathe can't accept
status position to be
human-
it's quiet, suffering-
something not to be
spoken of....

Is all this Allusion
Simply an Illusion
Confusion becomes Arcane
Machination simulation
Overplayed Arcade
Compiled of piles
Underlayed charades 
All awhile a smile
From delayed Cliches
Versatile Beguile
Endures soft Laughter
Ensured another Chapter
The Lure is Pure
Unsure
Of what comes After
Life of Demure
Better than Life of Immure
Intertwining for the Finding
Of the Ultimate Cure...

The Tiger Lily is gently removed from the lounge
so it wont ever come in contact with the cats fur
My visitor asks for Steppenwolf on the player
The song "Tenderness" has reticence
Its hard to know if we are romantically involved
having never kissed
Perhaps we share too much intelligence on one another
the quiet detective work overplayed !
We agree the   floorboards creak
they may need replacing
She inquires if the boiler needs replacing too...
