The Mark I Left
For every attempt
To be the reason
For your smile
I was the stain
You tried to remove
To be the reason
For your smile
I was the stain
You tried to remove

Dead
My body slowly becomes intertwined with the soil,
Feeding the worms , giving back to the earth.
I have never felt so free.

WHAT IS NEVER FORGOTTEN
PEOPLE
may forget
your name;
they may forget
your teaching
and status;
they may forget
where and when.
BUT
they will never forget
HOW you made them feel.

Inert Time
Tried to get away
Like what had been so desired
Turned down, rejected

Love affair
I love to take off my clothes in front of you
I love your intense dick.

Her body can't move
Running thoughts create panic

Needed Regardless
I rather be used
Relinquishing the unlove
The need for abuse

YOU
You are special
You are unique
You are powerful
You are equipped
You are knowledgeable
You are smart
You are important
You are valuable
You are loved...but,
always remember that
You are alone!

This is the end
She doesn’t text,
She leaves me on read.
Back at it again,
I’m the reigning champion of words unsent.
She doesn’t text,
Left on read.
Silence lingers,
Where words are best left unsaid.
She leaves me on read.

homeless
the night's
cold is
apparently
unaware
of what
it is
doing
to me,
it is
creeping
onto
my skin,
finding
its way
to
my bones,
and by
morning,
i may be
as cold
as the
night was,
unless the
sun can
save me.
