Smile

Life sent me a bit off course Then strangers took the rest. What didn't make me wince in pain Put me to the test. Silence caught my core one time Left me hanging in the dark. I'd like to say it started with friends But the answer is much more stark. I ripped my soul...

The Park

A moment that would live in infamy; The two of us sitting in the park. I was dreaming of a life I desperately wanted to have Because I had forgotten about my mark. I begged you to understand Kept asking "can we?" The little girl deep inside of me Desperately wanted a family. Asking, begging,...

Obfuscate

A feather plucked from the tree of hope Left me wondering about the past. Do I live within the circumstances Or forgive them at last? I put the feather in my picket Took a very long walk. Never said a word to anyone, I didn't want to talk. Sometimes I want to be invisible Just...

Disengage

Forcing open a concrete door That had never been opened really. Closing on a deafening blow He gives out quite freely. Love attached to anchors Far too heavy to lift. He tries to pull it all away But isn't quite that swift. Dangling feelings from a string Hoping she grabs the bait. Wanting her to...

Sometimes I Don’t Want To

Sometime I just don't want to write Because feelings come back that I want to forget And I've already lost that fight. Sometimes I just don't want to feel At the end of my rope, the ship has sailed And they forgot to give me my last meal. Sometimes I hate being me The indelible...

Some Coffee

Sometimes I sit and think for a minute Of how idiotic you were to believe a liar Over someone that hadn't lied to you. But then again, you did have so much evidence.. Right? One group tried to hate me Made videos to prove it. Another said they liked me Yet during a tragedy wouldn't...

Nothing

An insignificant being A joke you made to friends. Lie you spoke in darkness A thousand unused pens. Dancing around to rain Singing songs you cannot hear. Lightening hitting a burning building Nobody had seen in over a year. Ears that never hear me Lips that never speak. Hands that never touch me It isn't...

Secret

There is a secret in my life Hidden within the texts It's a little more than a consequence And almost like a mess. I visit it from time to time Just remind myself I'm whole. Somewhere in his heart I live But love is not my goal. That isn't even my secret, He regrets the...

Stay Broken

We have decided to stay broken To sit where we are In the place where we are Not moving Not speaking Not taking questions at this time. We will drink until we forget who we are Then wake the next morning with no regret. Talk of our poor mental health As if there is nothing...

Of You

I thought of you tonight While whispering to your enemy. Thoughts flowed heavily through my mind As he reminded me of how important You once were. He didn't mean to bring you up But when he did, I stopped talking Began tapping on my notebook Looking for a way to ask him how you were....
