Like The Willow Tree?
The scars have split skin and reached the heart
the faith in one love ever lasting
squashed like flowers grounded in the dirt
Damage that precedes our history
a fiancé who did wrong
the reservoir is barren
only clouds and no rain
The lane that I am restricted to
platonic to the hilt
veers with new tires acquired
the circumstance of events in motion
She does profess devoted regard
and expectations revive with
every fresh exchange
So easy to dismiss my interest
if I knew her romantic...
the faith in one love ever lasting
squashed like flowers grounded in the dirt
Damage that precedes our history
a fiancé who did wrong
the reservoir is barren
only clouds and no rain
The lane that I am restricted to
platonic to the hilt
veers with new tires acquired
the circumstance of events in motion
She does profess devoted regard
and expectations revive with
every fresh exchange
So easy to dismiss my interest
if I knew her romantic...

Gaping hole
There is a gaping hole
in the middle of my soul
It’s hard to let go
trying to start again
I sit and wonder when
will this pain ever end
I need to know will
my heart ever mend
I need to start
all over again
I can truly start
to love again
Give me time so
the healing can end
in the middle of my soul
It’s hard to let go
trying to start again
I sit and wonder when
will this pain ever end
I need to know will
my heart ever mend
I need to start
all over again
I can truly start
to love again
Give me time so
the healing can end

How Dare the Arrow Hope for No Blood
I looked at the ink inscribed on my skin,
Longbow-launched symbolism
Flying from within...
An arrow.
So easily bent to the whims
Of the wind,
so broken by pain
And tainted by sin.
Specifically that sin
of which we all can confess
Freely
Or whilst under duress,
Hard-pressed
Against the surface of me.
This recent agony
Has changed my trajectory.
And again that sin
is something to which we all can lay claim.
When the archer took aim
We hoped it was at a target...
But it was a heart....
Longbow-launched symbolism

Hard-pressed
Against the surface of me.

Has changed my trajectory.
And again that sin

We hoped it was at a target...
But it was a heart....

fragmented memories
Bad nightmares fragmented memories still
head aches, past bullshit remains in vain
thoughts haunted from your kisses
no one knows what this is doing to me
could not explain it to you if I tried and omg did I try
it's draining my core, just floating in this sinking feeling
can't begin to explain how much my life has changed
I did not ask for the lies nor the humiliation of coming home
We are now like strangers my backs to the wall
feels like everybody is telling me what to do
frustrated does not even coming close to telling you...
head aches, past bullshit remains in vain

Love And Whiskey
Love hidden in a box of letters she hasn't opened to savor in years. Her fingertips graze the exterior and She reaches again for the glass and a pen. Searches the paths of him for words that lace the whiskey with his gin,
so for a moment she can imagine,
while in the same breath forget losing him.
Temporary illusion of happiness, and ten thousand morning headaches in her wake.
Love rises with the sun and threatens blinding of her mind's eye, shades draw down to put the memory aside.
An aftertaste lays bitter in her blood, raping her subconscious too the floors....
so for a moment she can imagine,

Love rises with the sun and threatens blinding of her mind's eye, shades draw down to put the memory aside.
An aftertaste lays bitter in her blood, raping her subconscious too the floors....

Vulture!
You were in my dreams again
Stuck in there like a scar in my head
A scar that just refuses to heal or fade
Unlike you that scar is here to stay
The bleeding doesn't stop
And your words, like a knife, split my flesh; it's chopping. CHOP, CHOP CHOP!
Chopping and devouring my feelings and personality
Taking and using every little part of me that you pleased.
You VULTURE, how dare you take from me!
Leaving me with the emptiness of darkness as the only thing I can see..
Give me back my heart, so I can again feel alive..
I need that...
Stuck in there like a scar in my head

Sweet November
Sometimes I wish you'd just slip away
When I wasn't watching
When you weren't looking
In my eyes.
The deliberate goodbye . . .
hands in mine
Lips gracing worry lines
On the face
I know you don't wish to go
The pained crack in the voice
As you turn the knob
And I tell you
Not to look back
But you do
And turn slowly
Then I know
it's time again.
Here I am sitting cross-legged
On...
When I wasn't watching
When you weren't looking
In my eyes.
The deliberate goodbye . . .
hands in mine
Lips gracing worry lines
On the face
I know you don't wish to go
The pained crack in the voice
As you turn the knob
And I tell you
Not to look back
But you do
And turn slowly
Then I know
it's time again.
Here I am sitting cross-legged
On...

Memory
I'm forgetting.
Recollection's meaningless.
Even in my dreams, your shape's a faint and faceless mess.
Just let me rest here. I'll forget the sun.
Run, run, ran yours between my fingers.
Your memory still lingers there.
But I'll let you go, for real, this time.
This hand's no longer mine.
Recollection's meaningless.
Even in my dreams, your shape's a faint and faceless mess.
Just let me rest here. I'll forget the sun.
Run, run, ran yours between my fingers.

This hand's no longer mine.

Motherless
They say there's power in words
They say the truth will set you free
But how do I sleep when my whole family lied to me?
How do I mend the things I never knew were broken?
When my mother went she left the front door wide open
How do I begin to say that I found myself in pieces
The feeling of being lost grips me as quickly as it releases
It breaks my heart to understand I'll never know my mother
There are things only a son can hear from a mom and not another
I can't begin to mend myself before I know what's gone
It feels...
They say the truth will set you free
But how do I sleep when my whole family lied to me?
How do I mend the things I never knew were broken?
When my mother went she left the front door wide open
How do I begin to say that I found myself in pieces
The feeling of being lost grips me as quickly as it releases
It breaks my heart to understand I'll never know my mother
There are things only a son can hear from a mom and not another
I can't begin to mend myself before I know what's gone

A Life in the Foreshadows
(a gen-x sonnet)
With subtlety of words sublime converse,
As our curs'd kind can seemly do at will.
Perhaps we're bless'd, pronouncing doom or worse
With shi'lded blow of such poetic skill.
Like Band-Aids or an errant bone's reset,
Goodbyes should come at last and then be done.
With every studied line, demons beset,
Such dread that seeming slow farewell's begun.
But standing in such penned foreshadowed darks,
With little more than reason to discern,
The slight illumined path which she embarks,
Will...

The Aftermath
I miss your touch,
the one I never had.
I miss your lips,
the ones I never kissed.
I miss the way you loved me
for a time.
Feelings of desire that never
overcame.
Lust and passion that drove me
to the peak of ecstasy.
Just the thought of you
was enough.
I miss the way you forced me
to love you
for a time,
The way you made me succumb
to your fantasies
I miss it all
I miss it all
If you only knew the way I felt
about us
about us
maybe then could you really have
appreciated the...
the one I never had.
