The Old Man and the Dog by Catherine Moore 'Watch out! You nearly broad sided that car!' My father yelled at me. 'Can't you do anything right?' Those words hurt worse than blows. I turned my head toward the elderly man in the seat beside me, daring me to challenge him. A lump rose in my throat as I... Sign in to see full entry.

Suffering
Slipping in unseen, gleaming fangs of death glisten in the darkness. Cold fingers trace my spine from the inside. I am not in control. Pain, so brief yet so intense. My heart beats triple time. Here it is again, I can find no place to hide. Bitterness on my tongue, hatred in my heart. I want to cry... Sign in to see full entry.

And I Wait
And I wait, Haunted by the memory of your eyes. The pain inside of them reflected in mine. We both know how this will end. Dark dreams at night foretell of the suffering to come. Stalking me, Relentless, Waiting for the moment I let my guard down. Haunting me… Each moment I breathe I inhale you. I... Sign in to see full entry.
Talk To Me
Talk to me I am listening With open heart And open mind I will hear you Silent and still I sit and wait Open to your thoughts Your hopes Your dreams I hear the words in the empty spaces Dying to be said but held back I feel the need I feel the reluctance I taste the fear In your heart Talk to me I...

Wondering
Lost in darkness, sunlight nothing but a memory. Trapped in a prison of one's own making. Too tired to continue Too stubborn to quit. Wrapped inside a shell of who she used to be. Joy eludes her as she sits all alone. Wondering when she decided to make this hell her home. Wishing she could just pick... Sign in to see full entry.

Nightmares
Fear stalks me Follows me into sleep No rest do I find The fear I feel for you Finds it's power in the night Death is what I see When I close my eyes to sleep I live through the emotions The pain The suffering I hold our family as they cry I weep at your graveside Wet cheeks are what I wake to find...

Unspoken
Eyes watched me walk away, what the heart behind them felt I don't know. But something unspoken passed between us and shriveled inside my soul. I felt the anger, the hatred, the pain. I hurt for her. I know I've been there. Wanting someone who didn't want me, Such pain is so hard to bear. It cuts... Sign in to see full entry.

It's Time
It's time to let go To move on To forget Let it go Lost to you Belongs to someone else now You missed your chance Let it slip through your fingers It's time to let go Nothing you can say will change it To move on Things are no longer in your favor Let it go You don't have a hold there any more Lost...

Walking
Walking alone in shadows, I feel the night air swirl around me. It's cold caress whispers across my skin. Inside I quiver, feeling something begin to rise from within. Deeper I walk into the night. The change starts to come over me. The pull of the moon too strong to resist. Panting breath startles... Sign in to see full entry.

Alone I Break
Alone I break.. Heart shatters as I see with denying eyes... Deep within a soul screams out in denial... All that I have been I am no more... Turned to ashes in an instant... Your unwitting betrayal like a blade across tender skin... My life blood bleeds unseen and pools at your feet... Trod upon...... Sign in to see full entry.
