Yet feel all alone
That's how it feels
When love has left you.

An unfriendly ghost
I hungered for your love
You could only give me roast
Meat rich in protein

Jealousy Hatred
out of control

I Did Not Lose You
I did not lose you
I pushed you away
So why is it
My heart aches now
I crave you so much
Yet I know
It will never be again
In my heart
I feel
You are the one . . . more

He moistens his lips
Raises his brow
Masters the art
Of seducing the page
Sheds a tear for longing
Wipes his eyes with shame
Gently rubs his temples
Sacred ink stained pain

Ugly
You didn't say it
but you meant it.
You tried to spare my feeling,
but I still heard it.
In the way you paused and thought
The measured, 'sorta'.
You said once that you loved . . . more

Inside of me there is a place
Through a labyrinth and a maze
The travel to there is trying
But there is a sweet song
Waiting there for thee of great courage
The most precious treasure
Dwells . . . more

Dear Diary,
I crash into the iceberg
Oceans spill within my veins
A flood of thoughts pour forth
Salty tears; tides of insight
Snapshots of the ebb and flow
Immortalize these colored moments
Of angst, . . . more

The alarm resounds
with incessant rings
that deafen muffled ears
filled with wax from unkempt sleep
In a blurry-eyed haze,
I hurl the clock against crumbling walls
cracked with maps of deception . . . more

In the twlight of my day
The only worry I have
Is if I'll see
The twlight of my tomorrow
Nothing that's ever promised
Has been a guarantee
Just like tomorrow
This is the art
The art of being me . . . more

Seeing the world
Through rose-colored glasses
Through guilt-free tears
And sincere fake-smiles
Knowing that as long as you deny
Then it isn't so.

Twas a sad surrender to spicy peppermint
On summer days so very long ago.
Spicy peppermint ice cream dripping
From a waffle coned leather cup.
Sad surrender to the unyielding . . . more
