Once you fall in love, there is no going back to being just friends.*
Isn't it the most painful thing, or maybe it is just one regrettable memory.
Love is an inconvenience
Love isn't worth my time
Kissing is a sad exchange
When words will do just fine

Friendship is a better option
Who needs a bride or groom?
Companionship I'll have forever
No marriage for me anytime soon

I think I'd rather have a thousand friends
Than just one promised with a ring
That way if I hurt someone
I can run away and still be free

Love is tarnished love is worthless
Not even worth a small dime
All that I'll get is a broken heart
It happens all the time
i see it now
i spent countless hours
peeling petals off of flowers
and wishing futures that would never come
seeking love in the dark and not in the sun
i see it now
he is the wave that drags sailors under
and the lightning that proves more fatal than thunder
and the song the birds hum that is too melancholy
and he never could ever truly love me fully
yes, i see it now
how terribly dull
what pitiful fools
who can't think for themselves
and abide all the rules

how wonderfully clever
and unequal in measure
are those brave few who dissever
themselves, from platitudinous notions, and live free, forever.
Bee
Inspiration has left me
Like the stinger
From a frightened bee
My heart tip toes discreetly
In the dark hollow hallways
Of self-doubt and low self-esteem.
Many a times
It trips
Stumbles
Even falls
But still die hardly insistently
Treads on this self-destructive path.
Why it chooses so is a conundrum in itself.
Me look me in the mirror
and me see an abnormally normal
individual
guess not even
a shred of normalcy exists
or are things so very normal
such that I make out to see
the abnormal
in the normal
life's  really going around in circles.
Eleven poems
That aren't about you, or sad
That makes me happy.
