When Your Heart Breaks
Tears spill from your eyes as he silently walks away
Leaving you alone in the pouring rain like a movie scene
Though it's not a movie scene it's reality and it's happened to you
You've been lied to and you've been played a fool
Sobbing as you come through your apartment door dripping wet
Seeing you brown eyes baby girl you only cry harder
The baby girl you had mad together who no longer has her father
He walked away because he simply did not want to stay
When your heart breaks it's hard to look upon a happy face
Throwing things at the pictures on...
Leaving you alone in the pouring rain like a movie scene
Though it's not a movie scene it's reality and it's happened to you
You've been lied to and you've been played a fool
Sobbing as you come through your apartment door dripping wet
Seeing you brown eyes baby girl you only cry harder
The baby girl you had mad together who no longer has her father
He walked away because he simply did not want to stay
When your heart breaks it's hard to look upon a happy face
Throwing things at the pictures on...

Meaninglessness
I miss you –
Almost as much as I miss me
***
It’s hard to use the washed out meaninglessness of words
To try to fill the vacuum of numb
They lay dull
Like old yellow paint
Without warmth and scarce able to fill their purpose
Faded
Everything seems lost in the fading
But not to gray
No
But rather to the invisibility of pointlessness
***
Take away the heart that beats and how does one continue to live and breath?
I’m Pavlov’s dog ...
Almost as much as I miss me
***
It’s hard to use the washed out meaninglessness of words
To try to fill the vacuum of numb
They lay dull
Like old yellow paint
Without warmth and scarce able to fill their purpose
Faded
Everything seems lost in the fading
But not to gray
No
But rather to the invisibility of pointlessness
***
Take away the heart that beats and how does one continue to live and breath?
I’m Pavlov’s dog ...

Observations
( after T.S. Eliot )
A literary man of books,
I’d taken her as a lover.
Then yesterday I felt it time
To break it off for another.
The tables of my plan, on me
Have turned the way that she is done.
To moving on, ideal and pure;
I cannot change, or sully her.
Her bare feet trip lightly across
The balcony in early morn’,
Where no sun’s heated flush had yet
Graced patio of Venus’ breath.
To this reflection, heart and soul,
In spite of everything I weave,
She in her diaphanous glow
When...

Don't Cry
Hiding all the hurt,
hiding the emotional pain,
Hiding the tears from everyone
Because we fight,
I say I'm fine when
I'm anything but fine.
This ache in my heart
it's hitting the core.
Every fight, another step to the door
soon it will be goodbye and
it's tearing me from the inside out
Don't cry baby this just wasn't for us
I don't wanna leave but
I have no choice
i cant handle the fights
even though most days are good
I fear that we will fight again
and it kills me to know
you were...

You Left Us
We died in the pith of September. You left us.
In a rageful choke, in dust: you left us.
In a welter of tears and fists, you left us.
Your indelicate words glazed, shut the day.
Like air, you left us
to our sweat & our complaints.
To our swollen wood-pulp tongues
pressed into one car, we U-turned.
Left the wrong way home.
No birds quickened through the balding pines.
You left us to bleat & blister our way out.
My own words hung, paint-thick in my chest.
Nothing you left us made sense.
Each second a tiny fist of...
In a rageful choke, in dust: you left us.
In a welter of tears and fists, you left us.
Your indelicate words glazed, shut the day.
Like air, you left us
to our sweat & our complaints.
To our swollen wood-pulp tongues
pressed into one car, we U-turned.
Left the wrong way home.
No birds quickened through the balding pines.
You left us to bleat & blister our way out.
My own words hung, paint-thick in my chest.
Nothing you left us made sense.

Grown Apart
Broken inside,
it's all your fault,
Darkness consumes,
Voicing my flaws.
Love me hate me
you chose Hate,
Now you lost me
Was it fate?
So far gone, yet
we almost had it all,
My heart withdrawed,
So alone we fall.
Abandoned dreams,
Broken hearts,
Lost screams,
Grown apart.
Don't come back,
I won't be here,
Closures a must
I still love you dear
It sucks without you,
But I'm holding on,
Faking smiles,
Trying to be strong.
...

Piece of shit
I am a piece of shit
I stink
I reek
I disgust you
Yes, I am a piece of shit!
I was formed between goodness and gases
Disgusting
I am a leftover
A rejected part of your plate
You've taken away my innocence (my nutrients)
And now you dropping me
Next thing I will be flashed away
Far from your memory
And never again will you long to see me
I am a piece of shit
And this is my life
I stink
I reek
I disgust you
Yes, I am a piece of shit!
I was formed between goodness and gases
Disgusting
I am a leftover
A rejected part of your plate
You've taken away my innocence (my nutrients)
And now you dropping me
Next thing I will be flashed away
Far from your memory
And never again will you long to see me
I am a piece of shit
And this is my life

Before that Date
Just the presence of you made my heart skip a beat.
But you never believed me,
so I'll just take a seat.
I'll take a seat,
way over in the back.
So I can watch her do,
all the things I lack.
You never gave me a chance to prove my loyalty.
Yet here she comes,
You treat her like fucking royalty?
Tell me why I was never enough for you.
Do you even realize anything that I do?
I always thought you were wonderful man,
Except for that time my face met your hand.
I do wish you nothing but...

Open your heart (to do list: after the breakup)
( after Rupi Kaur )
Are you a true friend to a friend, my friend.
Have you a gift you’d take all the way there?
It will travel in the small of your hand
Where he had placed it from the north star’s shine.
In the cold of night, and the heat of day,
For a hundred miles, for five hundred miles,
For a thousand miles, for two thousand miles
To keep its clear promise all the way there?
When you arrive at last what will you say,
When you arrive at last what will you do?
Don’t say too much before they...
Are you a true friend to a friend, my friend.
Have you a gift you’d take all the way there?
It will travel in the small of your hand
Where he had placed it from the north star’s shine.
In the cold of night, and the heat of day,
For a hundred miles, for five hundred miles,
For a thousand miles, for two thousand miles
To keep its clear promise all the way there?
When you arrive at last what will you say,
When you arrive at last what will you do?
Don’t say too much before they...

Just a little sad today
If I wasn’t so afraid
I would find a way
To tell you
How I still sink with doubt
In this dreary world
I wonder
If my name lingers
Even a wisp of of thought
In your crowded mind
I loved loving you
I loved your darkness
And the plumpness of your
Bottom lip.
In the wake of your absence
I am an ocean
Of vulnerability
And in the hazardous blue
I am weak because of you
Fighting to reach the surface
I fear change
But you left anyway
And now I sit in...
I would find a way
To tell you
How I still sink with doubt
In this dreary world
I wonder
If my name lingers
Even a wisp of of thought
In your crowded mind
I loved loving you
I loved your darkness
And the plumpness of your
Bottom lip.
In the wake of your absence
I am an ocean
Of vulnerability
And in the hazardous blue
I am weak because of you
Fighting to reach the surface
I fear change
But you left anyway
And now I sit in...
