Heartbreak Reverse
I lie here broken-hearted
Realizing again & deeper
Just how deeply
I broke your heart
Is it possible to ever
Reverse a heartbreak?
Because I want to
Take yours back to
Before
I’d preserve it
Hold it ever precious
Never let it
Shatter
You deserve
More
Realizing again & deeper
Just how deeply
I broke your heart
Is it possible to ever
Reverse a heartbreak?
Because I want to
Take yours back to
Before
I’d preserve it
Hold it ever precious
Never let it
Shatter
You deserve
More

I'm so sorry, love Elliott
I held you in my arms so dear
Low lights with silhouette highlights
My hand in yours, so cold my dear
Friction sizzles and sparks a sharp bite
Whirlwind romance of novel proportions
I was your savior from destitution
Or maybe that's just what I thought
A grandeur of epic delusions
Now here we are in this confusing game
No limits, no laws, no rules or just cause
The angry words and empty promises
Gave us both room for pause
I questioned myself if this was real
You stood up from our fight
Cold...

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

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

I trust you
I care about you
I know you’ll find a way through…

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

Quandary of silence
Oh! Wait...
Is it over?
Did I miss a line?
Did you?
I didn't hear anyone call "scene"
or see the curtain drop,
but I'm standing in the dark
wondering
what comes next.
---
Are you still here,
or is that just your ghost?
---
What do I say now?
Prompter, please!
I wanted to know how this story ends.
but...
If it's already over, ...
Is it over?
Did I miss a line?
Did you?
I didn't hear anyone call "scene"
or see the curtain drop,
but I'm standing in the dark
wondering
what comes next.

Drinking On Wretched Memories...
Of times when my tongue was laser and blade
my ways, savage art.
I blackout on the day I broke you.
