The Forever Search
I miss you more than words could ever weave,
In the silence of the night when I can’t sleep, I grieve.
Your absence is a shadow that haunts my every day,
A constant reminder of the love I let slip away.
I was blinded by fears, by doubts that clouded my sight,
Too consumed by insecurities to see your light.
I let my mind build walls around my heart,
And in doing so, I tore us apart.
You were a vision of grace, beauty beyond compare,
A soul so tender, a heart so rare.
But I was lost in a maze of my own...
In the silence of the night when I can’t sleep, I grieve.
Your absence is a shadow that haunts my every day,
A constant reminder of the love I let slip away.
I was blinded by fears, by doubts that clouded my sight,
Too consumed by insecurities to see your light.
I let my mind build walls around my heart,
And in doing so, I tore us apart.
You were a vision of grace, beauty beyond compare,
A soul so tender, a heart so rare.
But I was lost in a maze of my own...

Redefinition and Resilience
She rewrote her story, banished despair,
With a lot of his money and without care.
A sculptor of flesh, she emerged with grace,
Her dreams woven tight in a bold new embrace.
Laughter’s soft whispers and scorn’s sharp bite,
Promised to heal each wound and blight.
She swapped her old self for a glimmering dream,
Each incision a step towards a vision supreme.
Liposuction started the sculpting spree,
Under the watch of a meticulous decree.
Then the lift and augmentation came to be,
A canvas reformed to her heart’s jubilee.

Passing Fancy
Such a petty argument and now I can’t see your face
With your back turned our bed is now filled with freezing time and space
another morning with this shit and the beef is still rolling strong
Emotionally pacifying thought, approached, and applied all wrong
Frustrated with our results preparations made, and bills have to be paid
I know every aspect of you from the backside although we have never laid
Ever contour of your body even stretched monthly to the max
Your hair has covered me also as it flowed about like wax
But I have our...

Water Fountain
She told me she loved me by the water fountain.
It's where we met.
Where we dreamt,where our home was.
And where we slept.
She told me she loved me more than him.
Her voice sounding sad and grim.
It's been a good while since I saw her face.
The way she moves in ellegance and grace.
But she is now with another.
That's approved by her father.
It's getting quite late outside.
And he was in a hurry to touch.
She says she loves him.
And that he cares much.
Now he's grabbing her hips and...

Withdrawn
You said you love me but i know it's a lie
How can you say you love me and then make me cry?
Lately you don't have time, we're barely even speaking
Going out at night creeping
Calling out his name while you're sleeping
I pretend I don't hear cuz i don't want to believe
Dont want to start a fight cuz I don't want you to leave
I gave my heart to you girl, what more could you want?
Then I saw you out with him at our favorite restaurant
Come through the door and have the nerve to kiss me nonchalant
You're already...

habits die harder in nightmares
It was like one of those
cigarette dreams where you smoke
(or drink or break your
sobriety)
and get pissed at
yourself
but do it anyway
Filthy habits always seem
to die
harder in dreams
So it was with us
last night
We stood on
opposite sides
of a cursed door
foreheads pressed
eyes closed
palms flat
as if we could
transmogrify
the sick regret
to anything

Mishka
She wears her sexuality fluid
shifting
shattering
she's the kind of woman
everyone looks at
even they can't define why
her pheromones
maintaining their own
gravitational pull
She's the kind of woman
other people would describe
as fearless
which is really just code
for scared of love
every relationship tipped
towards what she can get
rather than what she can give
It's amazing how her confidence
demands completely adoration

Let Go(d)
Proverbs 3:5-6
Trust in the LORD with all [ your heart ]
and lean not on your [ own understanding ];
in all your ways submit [ to him ],
and he will make your [ paths straight ].
When I'm laid in that resin pine box I hope they say [ "He lived" ]
Ignited all cares flicked to the wind still without a kind regard [ to give ]
AWAKEN to a phoenix shriek soaring out smelted [ molten ash ]
Paused chest purified wiping the charcoal quick adjust as [ I dash ]
Fiercely burning bound in breast poised in kevlar plated [ rib cages ] ...

Ignited all cares flicked to the wind still without a kind regard [ to give ]

Fiercely burning bound in breast poised in kevlar plated [ rib cages ] ...

Charity Shops .
Relationships end up in charity shops like that
leather bomber jacket . You remember the day you bought it oversized for the freedom of movement and an extra layer for the winter .Practicality meeting stream lined high end fashion with every stitch one of love and art and looking god dam smart . It’s yelling to been seen it’s black and it fits just right as it slides over your back to meet your old vintage Levi jeans it’s nice to meet you .
You didn’t actually say that the day she said yes to coffee and a cake . You can’t believe your luck she isn’t like any other you have...

Shame
I hold back shame tears
as I walk through
the door and
stand in front of
of the white chip basket
The Day 1 basket,
and hate myself.
My message tinged
and I looked at it
for spined minutes
I remembered
how damn strong
I felt yesterday
how affirmed,
and supported,
and cared for
I was
and how much I didn’t
want to feel like
Detox day 1 again
