Words... Words... Words... You pollute the air with facts Trivia, facts, retellings of stories Already familiar to us and to them. Sound... Sound... God Awful sound... Like every moment needs to be saturated With clanking or yapping or recitations. If only I could speak just for the ability to ask you To Please... Stop.. Talking.

Please. Stop. Talking.
If God exists, I’m going to hell. If God doesn’t, I’m already there.

When I Die
I want to swim in an ocean of logic and love with abundance of feeling. But love doesn't come easily to those who think (maybe too much). And heartache comes slowly to those who are slow to fall in love.

Lets Go Swimming
Love is different for the overly expressive than for logical people

Do You Have To?
I'm not quite out of time, but I'm well out of words. I'm not yet out of patience, but I'm well out of motivation. I'm not quite out of love, but I'm well over you.

Freedom
Question and question and question Me, Closed off because I don’t Want to break down in front of you Every time I see you. Closed off Because I believe… There’s more to life than Problem after problem Struggle after struggle. Failure after failure. Because I… Believe in hope Because I’d rather talk about the beauty Seen in the lives around me Hope and pain and hurt all around in other people And you want me to talk about myself.. Maybe I am closed off, Because I don’t want to Carry a box of mirrors.

Reflection
I don~t understand love poetry sometimes,.? Yup… Flowers, Favorite Moments, The Whole Shebang Gentlemen write things like “Rocking you in my arms brings be great tingles of joy” And women, I quote, say “Protection and safety are found in your presence” Yeah… The stereotype is lovely. Poets and optimists alike eat up the rhythm and emotion. Yet why? What do we want? What do we look for? Who cares? I guess anti~lovers would say. Me maybe? Yes I believe in love, Yes I have felt it~s evil pangs And seen it~s effects. What of them? Each generation the same. Each lover alike in thought “Can~t live without you” “Miss you to death and life and back again” What do we want? Don~t know. Don~t need to. Just know I don~t want it. Don~t want a lover. Holding someone tight doesn~t define your life or mine. But What Does?

Love Poetry
How do I love you? When every fibre in my being SCREAM Against you? How do I long to please you? When you’ve never done ONE THING, For me? How do I not despise you? When your mouth determines to REVILE Every word I say? How can something good come from me? When I am so prone to hate EVERYONE Were it not for inspired love?
