The Albatross
I used to think
those hanging an albatross
around their neck
were serious about penance—
those standing their ground
saying, I refuse to retreat
but will go down with this ship
because that's how much I believe;
or, deeply loved—
because any other behavior
would mean I did not
Yet, sooner or later
some kind rebound lover
bearing gifts and poetry
appears in shining armor;
or, perhaps another...
those hanging an albatross
around their neck
were serious about penance—
those standing their ground
saying, I refuse to retreat
but will go down with this ship
because that's how much I believe;
or, deeply loved—
because any other behavior
would mean I did not
Yet, sooner or later
some kind rebound lover
bearing gifts and poetry

Never Let Them
Never let them see you sad, is what I tell myself.
Never let them see you cry, I what I hold true.
But what happens when those feelings, start to boil inside of you.
And you don't have a clue on what to do, once they start rising up to the top.
Should I just let that bubble pop and have everyone feel the wrath
of my decades of pain and regret from the things I did in my past.
Or just stuff it back down and smother it, to let it continue to eat at my existence.
Like if I were to let it go away I would have missed it.
Never let them...
Never let them see you cry, I what I hold true.
But what happens when those feelings, start to boil inside of you.
And you don't have a clue on what to do, once they start rising up to the top.
Should I just let that bubble pop and have everyone feel the wrath
of my decades of pain and regret from the things I did in my past.
Or just stuff it back down and smother it, to let it continue to eat at my existence.
Like if I were to let it go away I would have missed it.
Never let them...
