Withered
Your touch so familiar
now different today...
Your knowing hands all
but have lost their way.
Lips once understood
my every desire...
No longer gift a
passionate fire.
Loving eyes which I have
read so many times...
Convey a different story
within their lines.
Your words which once
ignited my soul...
Now only attempt to
hurt and control.
Our hearts once shared
the same restless beat..
No longer in step,
no longer repeat.
A love once vibrant,
one so full of life...
Has all but ended ...
now different today...
Your knowing hands all
but have lost their way.
Lips once understood
my every desire...
No longer gift a
passionate fire.
Loving eyes which I have
read so many times...
Convey a different story
within their lines.
Your words which once
ignited my soul...
Now only attempt to
hurt and control.
Our hearts once shared
the same restless beat..
No longer in step,
no longer repeat.
A love once vibrant,
one so full of life...
Has all but ended ...

A Shattered past
I feel I’m at war here.
.
Cannot find a sheltered place.
.
I know that you crave more in this.
.
But we're so many stars away.
~~~~~~
|Fuck|!!! q:^(>…IT!!!
~~~~~~
————————————————————————
I offered this heart
With all the steel to peel.
These wounds so quickly revealed.
How am I to ever heal for real.
When this godamn pain has congealed.
A wish to start this from the start.
Before we tore it all apart.
We will always be.
A shattered past in the dark.
...

Titicaca
i've been the kind of teacher lately
I despise
impatient
reactive
demanding to be understood
without understanding first
on Friday
a girl ran out of the room crying
i suck
You should hate me
on days when I've slept more than three hours
or days when i push past the lack of sleep
and tamp down my depression
the worst in many years
on days- or hours- when my voice doesn't suddenly crack
because i'm on the verge of tears
on those days- or hours-
i'm a great 7th English teacher

Pin-up Dreams
Never one to let down, she fancies herself a pin-up girl. New lingerie and a fleeting photograph keep her admirers satisfied. A pretty face and voluptuousness her calling card.
Mood set, playlist on and photos taken. Aroused as she becomes, she finds no satisfaction in dressing the part. Men react as she tries to fill the void, but to no avail. Chasing rainbows and fairytales, she once believed attention was the prize, the dream fulfilled.
Now the outfits and mirrors a chore, all to satisfy suitors she will never see or touch. The embrace never to be felt by the men...

The Day The World Slipped Away
I dreamed I held the earth in my hands.
It was heavier than I imagined it would be. At first I was proud to hold such beauty and the thought that I could see into everyone's life, if even for a moment, made me feel invincible.
I brought the globe closer so I could see much better. What I saw sickened me to my core.
I saw lying, hating, jealousy and pain. People putting themselves on high pedestals, even worshiping their own name. Guns and war with drones and bombs tossed at one another just because they didn't agree. The bodies of babies lined the streets, unwanted...

Eager
Try as she may
Never quite getting her way
A fuck for your thoughts?
Being too eager
Makes real love never find its way
Never quite getting her way
A fuck for your thoughts?
Being too eager

i’m so sick
of seeing
you all
in my dreams
long night
after night
memories
still haunting
and half
of the time
the stories
are all wrong
painting you
in colors
that you
never wore
desires
i dreamt up
wishing you
were more
waking up
thrashing
and yelling
forlorn
those words
i was never
quite able
to say
feelings
i wish
would just
go away
trying to
forgive you

Giving myself a talking-to
Well.
You've got yourself
into a bit of difficulty, haven't you?
How many times do I have to tell you
not to put someone else on a pedestal?
It's not fair on them, and not fair on you.
So easy to say; so hard to do.
Able to live with unequal friendships
(aren't most of them like that, at some point?)
you continue to love, and give, and entertain
but for whose actual benefit?
Sooner or later, it all comes crashing down.
You'll come to see
that atop that metaphorical hill
stands a mirage; an illusion.

Churlish miscreants
Hence from me, thou puny,
milk-liv'red, mule-headed,
half-brained clotpole.
Fucketh hence to the furthest side of fuck
and at which hour thee receiveth th're,
fucketh hence some m're.
Taketh with thee thy fawning,
brainless whey-faced lap-dog;
that knave who deliv'rs m'rsels of discontent
directly to thy shell-like;
that knave unendow'd with p'rsonality
'r thoughts his owneth.
Encave within thy tow'r
of suppos'd superiority.
Bid each oth'r what thee wanteth to hear
as thee both gazeth like...

Fucketh hence to the furthest side of fuck

bruises
no help,
no kisses,
apprehension
waiting,
moving on
is not so easy,
i loved
steady
and strong,
but neglect
had such
an enchanting
character,
lost love
blooming
too late,
the friendship
that
once breathed
life,
our forgiveness
has
now faded
into brutal
contempt
no kisses,
apprehension
