Shayla Part 2
In her bedroom, Shayla sits alone,
Her drawings scattered, her heart turned to stone.
She pulls off her glasses, a sigh escapes her lips,
"My whole life," she murmurs, "a maze I've slipped."
Her hair, a cascade of brown, falls to her shoulder's grace,
She waves her hand, a yearning, a pleading space.
For Charles, the one she loves, but he

Tragically Ironic
She stumbles from the needle,
on life's ugly, jagged edge;
yet with gracefulness and beauty,
she leaps out from the ledge.

Tragically
Tragically
Cold piano keys
Cool and heavy
Beneath my fingertips
Smashing chords
My feeling erupts
Its voice a deep octave
I blame you
I blame me
I waited patiently
The melody picks up
Manically
The chords belt out
Powerfully
It isnt about what we choose
Life demands us
To do things we dont want to do
Pinning us into corners
Where we either live or die
Sometimes you choose life
Because its hard to die
Our

Tragically Tantilizing -

the feeling that you could prevail if time would just evaporate suddenly,
extinguishing the crowding curve that an opponent may still win,
the situation wasn't that dire,
Nevertheless,
Embers became fire,
flames transformed into dangerous desire
and wishes remained whimsical,
we began by ignoring

Free Cee a Tragically Bitter Kill
A TRAGICALLY BITTER KILL
I swore on the soul of Nicole
But Nicole left a hole in my heart
It was my heart Nicole swiftly stole
And she swore we would never come to part
We were headed for forever together
Nicole and I were a perfect pair
But sometimes lovers hit stormy weather
And fate is too often unfair
Her eyes shimmered like

Tragically Beautiful
Suffering is more poetic than happiness.
It gives you a reason to stand in the rain.
To be an outcast. To defy formality.
It's what you want. You want to be depressed.
It makes you more interesting.
But you're not.
Tragically beautiful.
But not interesting.
I will stand with you in the rain.
Only if

Desperately Lonely, Tragically Invisible
The times we share together
Are magical memories in the making
Leaving me at peace
In total contentment with us
Your radiant warmth surrounds my soul
Protecting it from loneliness
Of the countless years of neglect
That fights so hard to hold on
My arms are there to wrap your warmth
Ensure that it never grows cold
With the coldness that comes along with indifference
Or
