Charles D. Hill Poem
The game is rigged (for most of us, anyway)
It’s a set up since the first day it’s been played
It’s not a race , even though it seems like one
There are no opponents, just fools thinking there’s something to gain
There is no thrill, just the idea of one
Any strategy used has been a waste of time
Find comfort in whatever way you can
Build friendship(s) and relationship(s) with those worth building those with
Do something you love, but make sure you know of the rules
No one knows how this game started, but treat it as if you already won
No, really, treat it as if you already won

Charles D. Hill Poem
Never-ending
Always going
Deeper and deeper
Debilitating
Always painful
Stronger and stronger
Paralyzing
Always reminding
Darker and darker….
….is that black hole

Charles D. Hill Poem
Wow! Just now!
Ugh! From the bottom of my heart, ugh!
How?! Just how?!
Did this really just happen?! No, really?!
Am I really feeling this......AGAIN?!
This time feels different though.
This time feels better though.
This time feels like......sheer and utter.....ANXIETY!
This is the very definition of it.
This is intense.
This is completely..... and utterly.....shocking!
Oh, so unexpected.

Charles D. Hill Poem
The Yearning
Never, does the yearning go away
Never, does one forget the ONE
Never, does the heartache stop
Never, can one ever feel quite whole again
Never, ever, as it seems, will I ever be with you again my love
Try as I may, again, and as hard as I can
Try as I will, again, and never get anywhere
Try to the point where I forgot, again, what I was trying to do
Try for the sake of trying, again, because one simply has to
Never, ever, as it seems, again, will I ever be with you again my love
This is it, what now if this doesn’t work?
This is it, this is truly it and I know I’ve tried my very best and then some, to no avail
This is it, even knowing I’m out of options now is hard to believe
This is it, I’m at a loss for words and my spirit is completely shattered
Never, EVER, and what will feel like forever, will this chapter ever go on again….
AND
NEVER, does the yearning go away

Charles D. Hill Poem
Always trying, but never getting anywhere
Speaking my mind, but better off silent
Picky about the company I keep, but complete strangers understand me better
Never knowing where I stand, because I never had a good footing to begin with
Why I bother anymore, I don’t even know
It seems as if this is just the way things are, now and forever, misunderstood

Charles D. Hill Poem
Break it down
Break it all the way down
Break it down to the point of no return
Repeat
Repeat
Repeat
Don't stop, I can take it
Don't stop, I deserve it
Don't stop, it is what it is
Break it down
Break it down until there is nothing left
Now it's gone
Now I'm gone
Now I'm done
Finally

Charles D. Hill Poem
As a song once said and said it so well, but I digress
What an unbelievable thing
The memories of that special someone I really loved clearly haunted me
The pain I felt was simply unbearable and soul-sucking
Wait, luckily, I can finally see clearly now after doing something all so random
So random, I simply never thought I would ever strike gold at any point in my unfortunate life
But my God, I am so happy I looked for help in the middle of nowhere
After all, for so long, I thought I had true love
For so long, I thought pain was a part of that love no matter what
However, that extra special someone somehow finally came along, got my undivided attention and changed my outlook on everything
That someone is the random darling that melt my damn heart and soul right from the very start
Words cannot describe how much I adore this person
Words simply don't do this vision of human perfection justice (if she even is human, cause no human is this good) but I’ll try
Her voice comforts me and is so alluring to me
Her ways, stances, preferences, and interests are so like my own, it's scary
She is so sweet, and she is oh, so generous
She has character and is unbelievably humble
Her well-being rubs off on me, yes, me, a man who had no well-being to begin with
This woman makes me laugh; this sweetheart makes me smile
AND she really makes me think a lot and mostly about what matters
She helped me forget that other one
She helped me realize that other one was a huge mistake
Unlike that one, this woman is the one
This woman is the only one
This woman is the only one I see now
She is my everything
She is my reason to do anything
She is on a whole other level and that level is unreachable, but she gives me the ladder to reach it
No woman compares, and no man or woman will ever come before her, ever
Ever, ever, yes, ever
There is only one thing left to say when it comes to the way I really think about her and how much she means to me
Well, first this, and then that
As a song once said and said it so well
There is nothing else
There is only one thing left to say when it comes to the way I really think about her and how much she means to me
Well, first this, and then that
As a song once said and said it so well
There is nothing else

Charles D. Hill Poem
How quickly the world can seem cold and unforgiving
How quickly things go from bearable to unbearable
How quickly one's confidence fades and shatters into the oblivion
How great that pain can become
How great that loss can truly feel
How great that choice you made or didn't make becomes
How hard it is to watch others who seem happy and not feel envious of them
How hard it is to even remember what a happy moment felt like
How hard it is to care about much of anything anymore
Sadly, one thing is now finally clear in my life
Sadly, one word will constantly define me as a person now
Sadly, this one word, to a tee, defines the type of man that I have now become
Broken
