Are my fingers turned to knives now
That every touch just cuts your life now
Or is that what you fear?
Perhaps past gashes were too deep
Such that forever from them seeps
Only sad reminders?
Have my poor actions & reactions
Swallowed all your words; you shun
All hope of contact?
Did broken trust & boundaries crossed
Secure this absolute loss
Of you?
How can I prove I have changed?
Or am I self-deluded?
Can I ever earn a fresh new start?
Is our book concluded?
Still only...

My bowl of need dropped
And shattered
Scattered
Into a sea of tiny broken shards
Glistening
Listening
Futilely for your forgiveness
As your winds of silence blow
me Away
Please don’t die today
And shattered
Scattered
Into a sea of tiny broken shards
Glistening
Listening
Futilely for your forgiveness
As your winds of silence blow
me Away
Please don’t die today

Sinking
Sinking
I feel like I am drowning
Sinking further every day
I want to reach my hand out
But it’s best to push away
I feel that if I hold you
I’ll drag you into the abyss
It’s dark here and it’s lonely
And for you, I don’t want this
You struggle as I let you go
You fight me to hold on
I don’t think that it’s meant for you
This place, you don’t belong
I’ve tried to share my pain with you
But it just brings you down
I’m sorry that you feel that way
But you’re why I’m still around
...

Forgotten
I’m drinking on a Wednesday
And it isn’t even noon
I try to make the hurt go away
Want to fly over the moon
Each morning when I wake up
This shit starts up again
When the hurting stop?
When will this torture end?
When will I forget what you did?
Replay it all the time
Betrayal that I guess I earned
Deserved it for the lies
Karma found its way to me
And now I have to pay
Pay the price for evil deeds
I pay it every day
I know that I don’t deserve you
Or all you put me through
I...

Corporate Shenanigans
It’s an upsetting thing looking back it now
I thought I was just doing my job
But those of us who worked in subprime lending
We were part of that predatory mob
I had access to so many files
But I was just a paper pusher in those days
Get it from one reviewer and then out to another
I never really questioned every bonus or raise
It was a like a freight train on speed
Eventually the steam for the company ran out
And there I was, jobless for a while
Unsure of how all of that came about
Later on as the entire world went...

Enamored by the Façade
Maybe it was the inexperience of youth
That sometimes clouded my judgement
When I was enamored by the façade of what’s on the outside
I seemed to lack prudence and discernment
Yes it was love without a solid foundation
Lust sometimes tends heighten emotions without perception
And as the years passed I felt a disconnection
Unable to see the truth I too fell into a deception
But I wouldn’t listen to my intuition
I didn’t see what others saw for the sake of my enormous pride
And by the time I saw it I was too far in
Then I had...

I should have said:
Take your time,
think it through carefully
then do & say what you most need
I trust you
I care about you
I know you’ll find a way through…
Always know that
Whenever, however, wherever
You may need me
I’m here for you
My heart is with you
As you go through this
I’ll always care
& want what is best for you”
I’m sorry
for being selfish
When you needed
Understanding
think it through carefully
then do & say what you most need
I trust you
I care about you
I know you’ll find a way through…
Always know that
Whenever, however, wherever
You may need me
I’m here for you
My heart is with you
As you go through this
I’ll always care
& want what is best for you”
I’m sorry
for being selfish

Understanding

Just a Little Help
I long to drown the voices
The silence wakes them up
It’s like I hit rock bottom
Can’t get out and now I’m stuck
I’m turning to the bottle
The answer just inside
The questions linger slowly
In whispers I confide
The stillness in this bedroom
Makes the voices scream
I want to just wake up
Wake up and all this is a dream
I’m living in a nightmare
Confined inside my head
The bottle helps me cope
End of the rope
I cry instead
Just talk to me a moment
Just sit there hold my hand ...
The silence wakes them up
It’s like I hit rock bottom
Can’t get out and now I’m stuck
I’m turning to the bottle
The answer just inside
The questions linger slowly
In whispers I confide
The stillness in this bedroom
Makes the voices scream
I want to just wake up
Wake up and all this is a dream
I’m living in a nightmare
Confined inside my head
The bottle helps me cope
End of the rope
I cry instead
Just talk to me a moment
Just sit there hold my hand ...

cook onboard
the cook onboard
I had gone to sea as a gally boy it was the way
I could save money for a further education
and it so happened the ship was stuck on ice
In the Black Sea waiting for a Russian tugboat
to set us free.
the crew were an odd sort, they had survived
the war, but spent so long time on ships they
had no idea how to get home.
the officers were elderly men picked up from
the last chance saloon and since the ship was
dry they didn't chance it by going ashore
the cook was Swedish and the gayest man
I had ever...

Another apology
I’m sorry
It took me so long to understand
I hurt you more
Worse
It’s not an excuse…
Would it help to know
I was searching for another you?
Or, at the very least, hoping to forget?
I have ALWAYS
Loved you,
Only you
It took me so long to understand
I hurt you more
Worse
It’s not an excuse…
Would it help to know
I was searching for another you?
Or, at the very least, hoping to forget?
I have ALWAYS
Loved you,
Only you

The Hurting Kind
I wish I didn’t have to hurt you
To escape the way you hurt me
But the world will keep spinning
I wish you all the best
To escape the way you hurt me
But the world will keep spinning
I wish you all the best
