Simply Stated
She broke her soul on his feelings
Simple
Breaks like glass
Cuts like love

I don't know the words.
That meant so much.
To you.
I just said them.

Put Out the Fire
my life with you
hopelessly
embroiled in
affairs of heart
words enflame sorrow
screaming from bell jars
deafened through routine
our survival strategy
denies you me us

I hear you talking in your sleep
I hear you talking
In your sleep
It is quiet annoying
Because I am
Also trying to sleep
And its you
That keeps me waking me
Up
I don't appreciate that
I am being firm with you
In your sleep
It is quiet annoying
Because I am
Also trying to sleep
And its you
That keeps me waking me
Up
I don't appreciate that
I am being firm with you

Promises Spoken
Within the Flames of one's
Thinking
Within the Embers
Of one's
Thoughts
That Slowly burns Down
To Ashes warm
Becoming Cold
As the winter wind
That Drifts
Over the Graves
Of one's Intent
To Help the Ones
Who you Conceived

Fear (Haiku)
Desire your return
Pining to see signs of life
Inspiration lost
Trapped behind self-doubt
Fear of reproach if ask for help
Self-created cell

secrets (between hearts)
could you
tell me
what secrets
your heart
whispered
to mine,
was it
sweet,
was it
something
i should
have heard,
maybe
next time
i should pay
attention,
after
no response
from
my heart,
you took
your heart
and moved
it far away
and i
was told
that someone
listened
to the
secrets that
your heart
wanted
to share.

Unusual Success
Foreplay with no friends
Premature until the end
Succumbed to The Bends
Focus, there’s no lens
Kids should never make amends
Left click now and send
Thank you, I ‘am

it has rained (heavy here)
it has
rained heavy
here, like
little stones
at
my windows,
i will
keep myself
boarded up,
protecting
myself, finding
a comfortable
space,
and remind
myself
there is
still
some great
beauty
even during
bad storms.

No One Stays Out Of The Family
This is
the house that
Guido
Costello once called
home before a thug
named Dominic The
Butcher
Costello
found him.
