It's like the sun setting in hell. A great lake of flames and fire. Paper thin skin. Lifeless broken and robotic hearts. The black ashes blowing between bones. Elephant graveyard. People speak but do they really care? After they say say a quick hi, It's like you aren't even there.. Broken glass shatters in the deep crevices of scars that enter the intertwined perfect membranes of bodies.

She had to drink To numb whatever it was she had left It always was the scent of strawberries She got so good at knowing what would happen with him just by the smell She no longer fought it That would leave her with death treats and black eyes. Hands wrapped around her like a boa constrictor. If she fought That would be bad Better to pass out Then to draw attention to ones self and shout She didn't deserve the time of day or attention To keep her breathing All on a burning bed

I used to watch him everyday. He always bought flowers to the ship yard. A few years ago, the shipyard sank. Everyday he met the woman he was going to marry. Everyday she accepted the flowers with tears in her eyes. Every night he wondered the streets of insanity. I guess Null Street was the only place he could feel free. Like himself. One day he didn't bring flowers. He had a bottle of whiskey instead. His lady had left town. They never let him know. Glass smashed all over the ground. He crossed the street in dismay, refusing to obey the traffic light. Or maybe he was just tired, but he got hit that night. Just like that, in a blink of an eye I saw his fragile body flying in the sky. The impact instantly crushed his skull I heard bones breaking, I saw it all. He landed in the ship yard. The next day his lady got off of her boat waited around, she saw the glass. She saw the reflection, of the man who just passed. And all she did was weep no more flowers or candy the man on Null Street had a thing for Ms. Sandy.

The man on Null Street
A strained relation romantic vacations confused One minute I love you the next I hate you I pictured myself just the other day emerging your head in the lake of forever twisters all around as I said a prayer your hands holding mine not in a romantic way trembling gasping, panting it's okay you can breathe now let my hands go never has a body felt so light in the great sea of despair

I see the world from your point of view I always took it for grantid I love when we both stop to smell the flowers I see the world from your point of view The ladybug miles away From the shops on the street The clouds that look like butterflies And marshmallows The tall skyscrapers All of the busy bustling on the streets The escalators that are so high They look as though they are headed To heaven And I panic You are okay Much more braver than I I hate heights and crowds You hate bushes and bugs I hate loud noises You get frustrated easily We meltdown Life is a journey indeed. I am your mother You are my son You are my daughter We are friends In this busy Sometimes not so friendly world We are cut from a different cloth We are all Virgos We all have autism I am happy I can see the world from your point of view

I see the world from your point of view
You are my Earth, The spitting image of me. Depression is the realist thing That I have been unfortunate enough to Live and relive. Unfortunately I couldn't see. Beyond the baby years. Beyond the collicky cries. You needed love and I wasn't there emotionally Because no one loved me, I didn't know how to love then. And I apologize I know that you are young now, But you probably don't think that I care. They have forced fed you lies. I want you back and we miss you so much. Oh if I could just reach out to hug you, To kiss you and squeeze you. To tell you how much we miss you.. We love you There is not a day that goes by that I don't think of you Son..

To my son
She had a weakness for love yes she wants to be loved.. Loved like a rose when it travels down stream by the river The clear stream it carries the rose with such grace It's careful not to let it reach land that cannot be reached The bird soars up above wanting to save it from love Wanting to capture it for it's own selfish needs and desires.. Yes I have a weakness for love. I've seen it many times in many forms. "Oh why can't I have love like that?" The rose thought to herself. Until she began to make herself sound silly. She got so sick of love and the heavy weight it carried. And at last her petals began to fall and she was buried.

weakness for love
I'm a ***** when I have to be, won't let no one walk all over me. Again and again I am hurt. Constantly being kicked in my side, stepped on and spat on like dirt. Deep down I'm all alone. I come off as loud mouthed and sassy, but I was good before and look where it got me. So yeah, I'm a ***** I have every right to be. Just like you are an ******* Don't be mad at me.

I'm a *****
Beads of sweat gleam in the light Under the apple tree Into the suns warm, bright rays Raven red hair Sunny Silky skin So brown Apple green eyes That laugh We were young Hot leather seats The park No one around Temptation We acted on it I wonder how you are doing now It's been nearly 3 years No calls Under that apple tree That day our love grew You were with her and i with him My high school sweetheart Time does cruel things The smell of peony Flowers falling down from the trees I look at you in awe Your kisses are amazing Your voice is sweet and deep The strings of nature band together for us A warm heartbeat

If my heart could break into a million pieces What would it say? Would it say, Pack up and leave him- Y'all don't need him Just for a place to stay? Would it try to comfort her children when they are getting less to eat each day? When doctor's ask are your children getting 3 meals with snacks in between and you want to break down and die- Oh, only God knows what I mean. Please stop breaking because you've Broken into a million pieces a million times. People warned her not to leave, To leave VA. But she ran from her problems And there waited a new set to meet her at the door. She doesn't know who she is anymore. All she wanted was love But love is no more Only pain, judgement, misfortune, humiliation, and bad blood are at her door. The faces of her sweet children is all she has left to keep her pushing, Paddling, pushing on
