Dirty Ace of Hearts
Channeling you
Looking everywhere
Then suddenly
You appeared
A dirty version
Former self
Turned out
Struggling to survive
Your immaculate conception
Poisoned on the avenue
Splintered and struck
I had choices
Take you home
Bathe you in sanctity
Or leave you wounded
For the next John
To worship you
Make you into his likeness
Only to fail desperately
As he won't know
What I...

Hi, my name is K,
and I almost slipped today.
There’s just so much I want to share
when I convince myself that you might care…
Alcoholics have sponsors when they’re under attack
but I have to find ways to have my own back.
So I pick off the scabs, I watch the blood bubble,
reread the silences, relive the trouble.
I let the hurt choke me like hands on my neck;
it’s not masochism – it’s reality check.
Then anger steps up to take over the fight,
beating back shame, setting boundaries right.
As tears flood my spirit, my...

Pain Was Built
Picking up the pieces again
Fragmented dreams cut deep
Concealing hurt behind a grin
Dirty secrets crowding sleep
Insanity is located next door
Studying every last tendency
Time’s always keeping score
Strung out in it’s dependency
Idle threats missing the mark
Covered with a clinical desire
Calloused eyes spinning dark
Overt intentions must conspire
Sticky lies that complicate life
Buried beneath this heavy guilt
Reality wields a vengeful knife
Along it’s blade pain was built
Fragmented dreams cut deep
Concealing hurt behind a grin
Dirty secrets crowding sleep
Insanity is located next door
Studying every last tendency
Time’s always keeping score
Strung out in it’s dependency
Idle threats missing the mark
Covered with a clinical desire
Calloused eyes spinning dark
Overt intentions must conspire
Sticky lies that complicate life
Buried beneath this heavy guilt
Reality wields a vengeful knife
Along it’s blade pain was built

The Kindness of Quiet
In these the quiet moments of the day
how I so long for pain to pass away
and though my shore be pounded by the waves
a jagged stone will never roll or sway
The tapestries collected often seem
as though they were embroidered by a dream
interwoven, with all the hurt I feel
sometimes it has to bleed to know it's real
In truth the morning always yields to night
and in this life not everything is bright
so I shall turn no longer in your sight
until the morn, with dew and dawn's delight
To be wrapped in the sun, her...

Malice, At Last
Dark Embrace
Poise and grace
I hide my cuts
With cotton and lace.
Dead, I'm in trouble
Playing the double
I shall rebuild my crown
And kingdom from rubble!
Judgement presides
The law abides
The High Court says
No taking sides!
I am dead
As the Red Queen said,
She stole my throne
Off with her head!
Guileless wraith
Losing my faith
Darkness consumes
Nothing she saith
Descend to the fire
Trapped in the mire
Alone when we know
The situation is dire. ...

Rejected Love
Rain fell on my lonely heart
Melancholy thoughts
You put out my only flame

issues
when you call it’s so immediate
you want me wet and all I’m donning
is your fancy dress socks, my eyes crossed
you overwhelm me and I can’t get enough
I’m leaving bruises on my arms again
I don’t even care who sees me wearing them
does it make it worse if it’s intentional?
mutilation to release the emotional damage
would you even miss me?
I just want to feel relevant
I know something is missing
there’s an absence when you kiss me
breaking mirrors in my bathroom
exploding glass and perfume
try to focus on...

I was at the library with my girlfriend
I'm in a library with my girlfriend
We're listening to some guy talk about politics
Pro this, anti that
He sounded like an ignorant asshole
He looks into his small, uninterested audience and says that he's looking for a great place to get some dinner
My girlfriend gets up and says, "Would you like a great meal or something fast & easy?"
He says, "I'm looking for fine dining with a romantic ambience."
She says, "I have the perfect place"
She takes his hand & leaves
