Misjudged
I thought you knew my heart.
You certainly should have, because
I handed it over, piece by piece,
in return for crumbs from your table,
trusting they were your best offering.
"I don't want to think badly of anyone,"
I told her.
But after opening so many doors,
choosing vulnerability over and over
until I was powerless...
to then be so grossly misjudged?
It hurts.
I'm embarrassed by how much.
I really thought I was tougher than this.
The thrill of connection was worth
dancing with flames -- ...

Apology
I owe myself an apology for not recognizing the sweetness that resides within me,
For giving it all to someone who sought only to deplete it all in me.
Am sorry myself for the thick skin, I tried too hard, searching for a wrong shoulder to lean.
In the process, I buried something in me that had not yet blossomed , a dormant seed to sprout.
I was just a saint, and they? Snakes not heavenly sent.
I said I am searching, but I was just learning.
Learning not to give up too fast, for nothing beautiful is easy getting.

WHAT HAPPENED?
We used to defy
all taboos, cross
all barriers, dare
to take a risk,
say yes against
the odds, taste the
forbidden, indulge
in decadence, and
pick ourselves up after
we were down for the count;
loose our shirt and have
to hitchhike home.
YES! Vegas is what happened
to us and we didn't let
it stay there but we brought
empty pockets with us.
BUT
we're on our way back to
the bright lights and winning
and losing....WOW! Life
gets more exciting every day,
win, lose, or draw...

Brighter
Saw you in a dream last night
House full of strangers
Flickering bulbs devoid of light
Something seemed off
You lazily smiled
Blank eyes told me the cause
Concern meshed with my wasted mind
I woke thinking I'd see you soon
But your future was reassigned
Death came calling without warning
Years of friendship
Replaced with a lifetime of mourning
It was good to see you while I slept
Seems you were sending me a reminder
Ten years since your last breath
A reminder...

Too in the head
Boxed in toxic, eventually falls apart.
Wearing woolly hair,in the shape of a hat.
They accessed the mind,of this particular guy.
For a particular time, waiting for his breakthrough,
Now access, Access,
Access denied.

Universal law baby
You broke these people down.
They became ashamed of what they did.
It really wasn't good.
You made these people, feel so small and dumb. You cannot be played,as they liked.
Even if you are played,it doesn't make you weak or run down.
You're the real magician. Without actually trying.
You know how to take a negative and turn it into a positive.To turn nothing into something,is a skill everyone has.
It's all about law.
A universal law baby.
You got that pow-wow!
Your shit is extremely agitating.

Cardigan.
Love when it slips through your fingers.
you are left with a discarded cardigan. Its
seen better days. It has been worn draped
from shoulder's who never felt the weight
of the world as it was shared and cared for.
A double-knit pearl one kit two with a
tight stitch which was entwined. You
never realised that years down the line it
was exchangeable. Now your favourite is
Left behind. It doesn't seem to
insulate or fit your form. It seems to feel

The Relationship I Couldn't Help
Dinner with Gary was Hamburger Helper and unfrosted white cake,
and Jesus gazing upon us
from his frame on Gary's kitchen wall.
Sex with Gary was effortless.
Good every single time
Primal
Uncomplicated.
Sleep with Gary was wonderful.
My insomnia disappeared.
i felt safe
Protected
Loved
Life with Gary was embarrassing.
My friends thought he was beneath me
Not smart enough
uncultured
poorly spoken.
I'm not even going to mention what my family thought.

Fire breather
How did I let it consume me so easily,
draped in the comfort of these
hallowed and safe spaces
“Get too comfortable, and you might get burned”
Is not the way I want to be
when the only thing we get at the end
is missing each other’s faces
I don’t want to set fire to our bed
when the dragon’s feeling restless,
I’m just asking for a sword to get
plunged through my chest
Ringing alarms and causing
all the lights to switch to red
And I was blinded by rage,
while you were just trying to rest your head
I...

Don't Squeeze The Charmin
Hearing the yapping echo of Mr. Whipple
it just didn't happen a false sense of poo
screaming death's diarrhea a moment sat
watching the creepy crawlies explode
in the devil's chair covered in frost
listening for a flush squeezing the Charmin
it just didn't happen a false sense of poo
it just didn't happen a false sense of poo
screaming death's diarrhea a moment sat
watching the creepy crawlies explode
in the devil's chair covered in frost
listening for a flush squeezing the Charmin
it just didn't happen a false sense of poo

Return To Me
What would I see
If I read your glittering mind
Where would I be
If I'd left on that bus line
Of all the days of my life
If I was given one last try
I'd bring the world to it's knees
I'd here her begging please
Return to me
Return to me
Return to me
If I'd read your glittering mind
Where would I be
If I'd left on that bus line
Of all the days of my life
If I was given one last try
I'd bring the world to its knees
I'd here her begging please
Return to me
Return to me ...

The Velocity Of Regret
Buried in the tombs of the past
A heart shaped worldline of infinite adoration
Solar storms of longing
Quickmatter heart
Our past bleeds
with the velocity of regret
Thunderstorms of yearning,
times you'll never forget
A heart shaped worldline of infinite adoration
Solar storms of longing
Quickmatter heart
Our past bleeds
with the velocity of regret
Thunderstorms of yearning,
