At times I hear our laughter echo through the hallsbut yet I don’t feel anythingI don’t miss you at all.I’ve wept all of my tearsand stood up from my fallyou’ll never hear my voice againyou’ve used up all your calls. I gave you all my energyso now I need to crawl I’ve closed the door,Continue reading “I Don’t Miss You”

Angels
I have angels that surround my headand tell me where to goThere’s some that tuck me into bedand some I even know. They’ve wiped all of the tears I’ve shedand watch me as I growI’ve never gone a day unfed they lift me when I’m low. I listen to the words they’ve saidand see theContinue reading “Angels”
How It Goes
Sometimes things don’t last foreverbut that’s just how it goesone moment it’s a blooming flowerthe next a dying rose.

Warm Summer Day

Venting To My Genie
He vented to his genieOf his great dispair. About the love he blindly lostAnd wished he could repair“Now genie for my final wishI pray that you dont missAnd take me back into the time in which I reminisce.”He laughs and lifts a single handThats balled into a fistHe waves his pointer finger outAnd states heContinue reading “Venting To My Genie”
I Once Painted A Picture of You

I added your hair, with love and careAnd a smile thats far from meanI envisioned a dress, your sunday bestIn a color thats so pristine. I once painted a picture of youDancing in aContinue reading “I Once Painted A Picture of You”
Dwindling Flame
I realized our flame burnt outWhile yours lit for someone elseBut mine still quickly moves aboutAnd wax just slowly meltsI take a breath, and hard I blewBut never did the flame subdueInstead it only grew and grewInto something else anewI put it down and walk awayIn hopes that it will lose its flameBut a wildContinue reading “Dwindling Flame”
Her Unplanned Life
She leads him down a hallwith no clothes on at all.Knowing that he’s nervousshe feels it in his palmTheir bodies are treasurethat somehow lost its gold.His from seeking pleasureand hers from being sold. Entangled in the sheetshis heart quickly beatshe’s moaning and groaningwhile she just softly weeps. The money vibrates in her handlike precious contraband.Continue reading “Her Unplanned Life”
