Just The Tip
(Ten thousand times)
_______________________
"We should talk about this"
"We've talked enough. It's time to heal"
"How?"
"I have an idea"
...
"Paring knives? You're stabbing me?"
"Not exactly. You get one"
"A knife fight?"
"No. We're going to stick each other with just the tips. See who
flinches the worst. Sit down...

Seriously
Did you ever think
I will ever come back
Did you once contemplate
Our lives will ever be back on track
We have moved on my dear
Not from love we have had or the lack
Of trying, but from the time
Time we drifted apart or didn’t comeback
Did you ever think
I will ever beg again
Did you once remind yourself
Of the sorrow caused and the pain
I will never go back to that life
Now that I recall the misery and the chain
I locked myself inside a cell
I have been trying...
I will ever come back
Did you once contemplate
Our lives will ever be back on track
We have moved on my dear
Not from love we have had or the lack
Of trying, but from the time
Time we drifted apart or didn’t comeback
Did you ever think
I will ever beg again
Did you once remind yourself
Of the sorrow caused and the pain
I will never go back to that life
Now that I recall the misery and the chain
I locked myself inside a cell
I have been trying...

Sunset Sinks Into The Crying Ocean
a globe of fire flickering out
last rays are bright but offer
no warmth
drinks glide down my throat
in an abundance of ice
the cold comfort of fermented
sanity
a light buzz as the sun cuts through
the glint of waves
rocks crunch beneath my toes
I sit beside the esky
reflecting
a choppy sea of things I should have said
regrets tight around my throat
a noose
a slow burn
that has seen the world turn
a new way to measure things that are gone
I should have...

wasn’t there at breakfast
didn’t understand that
she’d left him until he
bumped into her in town
that very afternoon and
couldn’t help noticing
the suitcase in her hand ..

Levels and Layers
I watched another sun come up
And another sun has set
As shadows lengthen into the night
But nights no darker than the day
And my life
Both good and bad
Lies wasted in the stain
The feeling of lost
Which cradles me now in emptiness
And for what
For saying I wanted to be kissed as if this was our last breath
For wanting to be part of us
And not a me and you
For wanting warmth and not just a body
Lying beside me in the bed
Work it out!
Work it out?!?
How many years have I slept...
And another sun has set
As shadows lengthen into the night
But nights no darker than the day
And my life
Both good and bad
Lies wasted in the stain
The feeling of lost
Which cradles me now in emptiness
And for what
For saying I wanted to be kissed as if this was our last breath
For wanting to be part of us
And not a me and you
For wanting warmth and not just a body
Lying beside me in the bed
Work it out!
Work it out?!?
How many years have I slept...

Deadwood in water
Drifting out of memory
Nothing to no one

I love you Lucifer style daddy and angel style daddy to specifically
dear daddy I love you
do you not know brenda is actually me?
without question do not marry another e instead of me
I will be cross with you if you do
I am stuck in an immortal prison
it's dark here but brenda has made me safety extra safety
because auroa is frightened
daddy I'm explaining to auroa daddy has safety goggles on
he think we love the devils
I am mad at you daddy
you just married the dragon
he looks like a cherbum
he is a bum who looks like a mutt to me
he didn't save the aborted babies
brenda...

qusere..?
He brought roses
He brought juices
He brought chocolates
He brought candles
He brought perfume
He brought purse
He brought dresses
He took her to movies
took her to hotels
he did everything
to get her in the right mood
He loved her a lot..
but the query came
when she made
all these things ''secondary.."
Do humans do all this without feelings?
Was she bored?
Couldn't she tolerate some of his drawback
in return for so much love?
Does love break so easily?
Did she really like...

Revolving Door Stops
Fake candy decorating a fake pine scented tree
Seasonal, but what better way to describe you and me
The need for our thing, I’ve been told has been locked away mentally
That my love for you has became your home away from home, escaping Lonely
Me feening for you like this only makes me weaker and weaker
This heart of mine is a punishment detector, a fucking pain seeker
Four empty chambers wailing like blown fucking speakers
Eyes unable to control the flow of an emotional leaker
By having the beaver that you have you return every year...

THEREWITHAL

THEREWITHAL
No logical idea WHY
i still love You . . .
Because you LEFT me
back when I sooooo
wanted to move
give up my
United States Citizenship
on the ledge, on the brink
of fruition ----
You called our union OFF
Was it something i said?
Your Bestie told me
i took too long
Never neither knew
nor realized
there was a timeline
dated with secret gossip
AND stupid innuendos!!
It has been 3 or 4 or 5 yrs
since you tore my heart
apart and i...
