I thought you left
Mindful of your future
Your fear of losing your senses
Broken and deserted
Was it your pride
Or your fear that made you leave?
Nah, it was your calculating mind
You knew what we had was good
Maybe even better than those
You've shut out from your heart
But what do I know
I was only a ghost trying to sate
The void that can't ever be filled
Because you always want those
That you can't ever get...
You'll always be alone
Bitter and abandoned,
And the funny thing is?
You can mask it all too well
Relishing in pleasure
Even as you're writhing in pain
Shattered in shards of bitterness
Numbed in pain, bleeding and broken.

Cold, alone, and confused-what is it I should do?
Money comes, money is closed;
Spinning around until I feel the ground,
where is it that you want me to go?
where is it I SHOULD STAY? How can I make your disease go away?
Mind blowing, I can't stop thinking that I know what your medication claims it will take care of,
what pain, what suffering, how much can i listen to the fake of unknowing what really lies in that mind of yours?? besides that, why should I profess my resurrection, my undestruction of this situation!
I feel not for you, I care not for it, I don't care where it goes from here.....as you lie dying in death and despair from your deceit; those lies, they ate you----dead.

About this poem:
it's a personal situation of domestic abuse and chemical abuse; someone I once knew, to that someone that is they way they are now.

Ever wonder what it would be like,
To hike,
The Appalachian Trail in late Autumn?
To sail the Seven Seas?
To travel through time?
To do whatever we please?
Temptation,
Yea desire,
To roam far from home,
To see the Wonders of the World,
To conquer all our fears,
Hit the bullseye every time,
To joyously fulfill all our years,
But wait,
Don't go.
Stay.

About this poem:
Dreams are merely wishes. We don't need it All to find true happiness. Be content with what you have. It's what God gave you.

How can I write the beauty
Of Nature? It is really scanty
In my mind; supplies nothing.
How the ideas will be soothing?
In the horizon the earth
Kisses the sky that gives me mirth.
The cornfields and the buildings nearby
Bring forth a question who makes these for why?
To cross the ground shrubbery and the road with vehicles
Is to pass through a land of dreams and miracles.

Trawling through the many faces,
From here there and far out places,
You could have a lot to say,
Or just where'd you like to go on our date someday?
I see you and you see me,
So don't be shy and send a message or three.

I caught your lines
softly spoken
echoes in the old forest
I caught your words
last birds to fly
in these the seasons
the seasons we have known

So many miles away, like the distance between night and day, I've grown so much since you last went away.If time could speak it would ask why this way, Summers are so bleak because we barely speak, Solidarity is what the soul craves, But your heart beat sound's further and further away. A world with ought u is like the stars with no moon!??

Minimalism

There is nothing like the written word
To give form to feelings past unheard
'Tis as if the writer were on a mission
To release years of shyness, inhibition
To leave the buttons off is best
we can all go weak at your manly chest
Whilst naked chest is good to bare
A soul is very brave to share.
Touch this, stroke that
What a lot of old woman's hat
At 21 can you not deduce
This love stuff is just a clever ruse
To ensure that humans reproduce?
Woman make happy thanks!
