GONE AWAY are the days of innocence,
of barefoot wanderers and tie-dye dreams,
lifelong tours in a war they didn’t ask for,
Why am I the only one?
Why don't they give up?
I already know how bad I've done
But all I say is ‘suck it up
No one cares that's It's hard
Crickets chirping, light off suddenly she's in the dark.Heart pounding, mind racing, just her & her thoughts.Good & bad, the wish I could's, was it me? What did I do?
A woman with delicate
Crow’s feet framing
Murky blue eyes
Leans heavily against
Her truck.
A man sits on a lawn chair
Beneath a sun-stained umbrella
With sunglasses perched
Atop a reddened nose.
I was the type,
that held on,
expecting the worst,
unable to release myself,
from what I presumed was safe.
I would hid in the shadows,
waiting to be cleansed by the rain,
but,
The first time I met you I thought little of you
Now I know you for you
I like you
It's been eight years since then,
I love you
We started as friends
then best friends
then sisters
"End of the River"
I can’t see,
Please!
What’s to be?
It’s known, what could,
Living in the woods.
"You're Special"
That's what he said
But what you said was
that I have better things
to do with my life
But life is meant to be spent
with happiness all around
Not everyone gets this opportunity
to find someone like you
I take it all in; One day at a time
But you're always on my mind
¡Oh it's just a first love!
But no matter what place it's in
It's Love
You make me happy
And what's more important
than that
It's a fact - happiness makes
the world go 'round
That's why I always want
you around me
I dont care what they say,
Tell Me
Is this wrong
Is this typical
tested, tried, & true
It makes me blue
with fear; this tested
tried, & true
It feels so right
But ...is this wrong
Follow me back to a moment in time
A memory for me. In a crypt. In my mind.
Waiting for him, it's an hour past five
In comes Drew with his broken blue eyes.
He sits across me in a cold seat that grinds,
A broken girl you see
with a flawed family
she hides up in a tree
playing hide and seek
too old now for the games
she is consumed by all the flames
the girl she wants to be
Swelling and beating when I think of you
It's as if I envision you here fingers tangled and all
My heart selfishly desires to be melted with yours
Past heartaches never mend and for a boy his heart never bends
My mind is broken full of tears a never ending storm of stress and anger. My brain a continuous rain cloud My mental and emotional state is shattered beyond repair.
Gliding along the wooden planks
As coals of emerald
Kindled his face
I caught a glimpse of a transfiguration.
Soft winds swept up my cotton skirt
Past polished shoes and mounds of earth.
Denied
Rejected
Banished
How must he feel right now
Hurt
Worthless
Not good enough
Trash
Why?
Why would anyone deny him
A simple thing such as entry
To the place of his dreams
