Where there is peace there is silence. Peace is simply the absence of noise. The calmness in your soul is mistaken for loneliness.

Peace
Were there clouds upon the sea For they would shelter me; Were there string tied to my heart For you to pull them to and fro; Were there clarity in my mind So that i May function half the time. Were there peace in my soul So I would not lust after you no more.

Storms cloud the mind
I’m not happy. I want to cry and crumple. To scream. But where is the point? The day is the same, the air remains and the birds still screech. So I stay silent. No voice given to the devastation inside.

Happiness
The weeds grow long and tall Curling into the crevices. The grass has died back , yellow and withered. I turn my back because it breaks my heart to see the flowers trampled. I haven’t taken care and I haven’t planted. This land has died and I can’t bare to look.

Take care
Kintsugi So beautiful and wonderous to examine. Yet filling in the cracks with lies, platitudes and denial never looks as good. Ceramic bound in gold so intricate yet this glue is brittle, faded and weak.

We were already broken from the Start
You knew you would end up here: Winding ripping at your hair, Eyes burning with tears And hands clasping sand.

Inevitability
A kiss Left unanswered A kiss withdrawn A kiss Misplaced A kiss Forgotten And A kiss Submerged into icey waters To be burnt in frost. Lips alone, cold and barren

A Kiss
That pain you feel? Those nails digging into your skin? That blade you feel? It’s for you. It’s to teach you that it’s your fault. You should know better You should care less And you are stupid for not learning by now.

A Lesson
Mud brown eyes and bent nose ***** skin and straggly hair. Calls unanswered Ignored and unwanted. 2D, flat, plain and uninteresting. Nothing to contribute A collection of roles, services rendered And monotony personified. Empty, devoid and boring.

Self-Portrait
There you sit In your leather jacket. Lips around a bottle of beer Easy smile and smirking eyes. I can’t help but walk over And lay myself bare Leaning across Just to touch. Skin on skin. Lips brushing your ear I do not whisper sweet nothings But whisper scenes of obscenity Visions of submission. I feel your breath quicken as I move away Hoping you will follow.
