Good Night, My Love

Good Night, My Love Goodnight, my love, Wherever you are I pray for your safety On the first evening star It seems like forever Since you went away No matter how sunny My sky’s always gray I love you so much That won’t ever change Being alone Is painful and strange We’re halfway through This most...

Gone

Gone Children cry – bellies swollen, yet hungry. Water slithers lazily – cavern to cavern – it's fangs poisoning all obstacles it greets. Birds sing soundless songs – silence startles. Money’s but wallpaper; all needed, all possessed, Mother provides. If you never had it, would you miss it? God... Sign in to see full entry.

Day to Day

Day to Day Ants tending to their duties. Lightning bugs? Beetles? Scurrying avoiding collision, with an occasional squish. Some carrying others away. Lairs blazing, alive. Sleep – Silent and dark. Until morning? Maybe. Sign in to see full entry.

Violated

Violated the Hindrance grows size pain doubles day after day week after week engulfing the narrow space Finally she can stand it no more the Incision is made the Hindrance seeps out taking part of her Soul with It Violated remaining forever scarred lacking Feeling for the rest of time Sign in to see full entry.

True Love Arrives

Perfection

Perfection No one is perfect I know what they say But I can’t help trying To journey that way. Perfection is something I strive towards for you And when I fall short I feel so untrue.

Rebuttal to "Taking a Chance"

Rebuttal to “Taking a Chance” I once wrote a poem Of taking a risk And decided it was quite right To in fact take a chance Despite being hurt; If you care for him, put up a fight. But many months later As I lie here alone I realize I was in fact WRONG – Though I do care for him (And I did fight, at... Sign in to see full entry.

Ode to Emptiness

Ode to Emptiness I know you know I’m interested; I know you know I care; I know you’ve seen me laughing, But I force that happy air. Inside, my heart is empty; Inside, my heart is cold; No pain exists, no mirth exists, The memory of love is old. Form afar, I sit and watch you; From afar, I wonder... Sign in to see full entry.

Taking a Chance

Taking a Chance I have often wondered If I am a fool to take a chance. But where love and happiness are concerned, How can I not take a risk? Dreams are not fulfilled If one doesn’t pursue them. Life is full of risks, And risks can be taken Or ignored. She who ignores them Leads a safe, but... Sign in to see full entry.
