Why Bother
Why do I bother to ask
When they don’t want to give
I keep wearing a mask
Of content in order to silently live
Why do I bother to dream
That tomorrow is going to be okay
When tomorrow seems
To be like any other painful day
They tell me I have to be the one
To give from the bottom of the heart
Why do I have to be the Sun
When the Moon doesn’t want to take a part
I always hide behind a smile
I laugh to show the world that all is fine
When shadows dark...
When they don’t want to give
I keep wearing a mask
Of content in order to silently live
Why do I bother to dream
That tomorrow is going to be okay
When tomorrow seems
To be like any other painful day
They tell me I have to be the one
To give from the bottom of the heart
Why do I have to be the Sun
When the Moon doesn’t want to take a part
I always hide behind a smile
I laugh to show the world that all is fine
When shadows dark...

dove of peace
The dove of peace
A white dove landed on his windowsill
plucked a feather of its plumage and flew off
He opened the window, picked up
the white feather wondered whom he had
betrayed with his silence
Looked into the fathomless gulch of his
consciousness and petrified bones of what
he should have done but failed to do
the many he should have called but didn't
because it was late in the night
The phone in the hall, cobwebbed by neglect
he lifted the receiver, heard the hum
of eternity and what had...
A white dove landed on his windowsill

No trace
I saw that look
In your tear filled eyes
A dream broken into
A million pieces
With no solution written
In the dark stormy skies
Anticipation grows
With every passing day
Two hearts breaking into
Two dancing souls
Falling apart
With nothing to say
We move within inches
Without a glance
Chilled by the cold
Inside of me
But it's past the point
Of a second chance
I used to live
For the joy in your face
Inspired by your
Desire
Now I'm searching
But there's...
In your tear filled eyes
A dream broken into
A million pieces
With no solution written
In the dark stormy skies
Anticipation grows
With every passing day
Two hearts breaking into
Two dancing souls
Falling apart
With nothing to say
We move within inches
Without a glance
Chilled by the cold
Inside of me
But it's past the point
Of a second chance
I used to live
For the joy in your face
Inspired by your
Desire
Now I'm searching
But there's...

You Don't Like Me
You don’t like me—
You like the way I fill the silence
when your world goes quiet,
when all your friends are gone,
and you’re left
with nothing but your own shadow.
You like how I make you feel important,
special, like the center of a universe
that you don’t even see me in.
You never liked me—
not for who I am,
but for the way I hold you
when no one else cares enough to.
You craved the attention,
the love you thought you deserved,
and I gave it, didn’t I?
I poured it out,...

Lovesick
I weep
For a love lost
In the shadows
Of a vapid night
Ours was a tune
Played in blissfull grace
Till the time
You were lured away
It was all too much
The dancing firelight
On sensuous shores
Turning darkness into light
I called in vacuumed screams
Beware
They're not what they seem
Thrilling ecstasy is hard to penetrate
From a chilled soaking rain
Always searching for
A way to ease the pain
So I wait
In tempestuous silence
For your abated...
For a love lost
In the shadows
Of a vapid night
Ours was a tune
Played in blissfull grace
Till the time
You were lured away
It was all too much
The dancing firelight
On sensuous shores
Turning darkness into light
I called in vacuumed screams
Beware
They're not what they seem
Thrilling ecstasy is hard to penetrate
From a chilled soaking rain
Always searching for
A way to ease the pain
So I wait
In tempestuous silence
For your abated...

No Right to be Angry
I sit here, empty, blank.
Roses are red,
violets are blue,
your words are empty,
and so are you.
so are you
so are you
so are you...
They say I have no right to be angry.
In that case, I resign.
questions about what I'm doing to lose weight,
the next job I'll have,
the next boyfriend.
Just leave me alone
and shut the door please.

The Slow Fade Of Confidence
There was a time
he never thought about it,
it came
(and so did he)
automatically...
He reveled in the opportunity
-the unspoken attraction
and the subsequent reaction
provoked by a chance meeting
or finding common ground
among a former acquaintance
The excitement of discovery
was motivation enough
and he grew to appreciate
the contrasts of others
- the differing shapes and movements
that offered that seal of delight
He wasn't reckless, by any means
or even someone who played the game ...

Stay Alive For Me
If I go, if I slip away,
Promise me you'll live each day.
Eat your meals, get your sleep,
Hold your heart, but do not weep.
Pretend like nothing ever changed,
Like my absence is just rearranged.
Act as though I never was,
Forget the pain, forget the cause.
You'll find someone better, you'll see,
Someone who’s more than I could be.
But know, in silence, in the dark,
I loved you with my whole heart’s spark.
I’m fading now, can’t hold on tight,
But promise me, you’ll be alright.
Live a...
Promise me you'll live each day.
Eat your meals, get your sleep,
Hold your heart, but do not weep.

I asked
I asked for a kiss
She didn’t
Could have asked nicer
I couldn’t
She wasn’t interested
I wouldn’t
Thought our life was great
It isn’t
Should have done more
I hadn’t
Had to look for another
I shouldn’t
This is not my fault
It wasn’t
It all started when I asked
She didn’t
She didn’t
Could have asked nicer
I couldn’t
She wasn’t interested
I wouldn’t
Thought our life was great
It isn’t
Should have done more
I hadn’t
Had to look for another
I shouldn’t
This is not my fault
It wasn’t
It all started when I asked
She didn’t

an Envelope... with suffocating words
today, some of my words fell on the ground like falling stars
which were frozen like a dry layer on my wet lips
which wanted to shine on the paper like the sunlight
which remained hidden in a silent, stubborn and woeful room
which were embraced gently by someone in the lovely evening
today, they were found wrapped in dust on someone's doorstep
those who were growing up in the womb of sweet and soft dreams
had now become guilty by killing sleep
those who were synonymous of happiness and fragrance
and were making someone's...

Unscented BS
Unscented BS of quackery luring the lambs
like Little Bo Peep and Lemmings leaping
into the forever-forgotten obituary of fools
posted on a facade of tidbits and guilty omens
inclined to butcher the mind of common sense
playing marmalade to obsessed dark charades
who are as guilty as the one obsessed
thinking they a jester to Lady Godiva and the
pimpernel hiding in shadows
like Little Bo Peep and Lemmings leaping
into the forever-forgotten obituary of fools
posted on a facade of tidbits and guilty omens
inclined to butcher the mind of common sense
playing marmalade to obsessed dark charades
who are as guilty as the one obsessed
thinking they a jester to Lady Godiva and the
pimpernel hiding in shadows

Pumpernickel Bread
Dark's narcissistic psoriasis builds up plaque in
the back of the mind's psychopathic gunny sack
a platinum tongue lurking behind turnished spoon
thirsting for carnal knowledge in manuscripts
hearing voices echoing "Oh, why did you so
enrapture me?" playing someone's Sandman
in raptured cutlery with a whetstone appetite
night after night reciting from the script the
ingredients of pumpernickel bread
the back of the mind's psychopathic gunny sack
a platinum tongue lurking behind turnished spoon
thirsting for carnal knowledge in manuscripts
hearing voices echoing "Oh, why did you so
enrapture me?" playing someone's Sandman
in raptured cutlery with a whetstone appetite
night after night reciting from the script the
ingredients of pumpernickel bread
