Hate aside I lose my pride
When you walk away from me
Nothing going on you say
But then I see you have a party
And where am I today?
Nothing doing
Nothing good
All the pain I had withstood
Learning you have a life
Should I say I hate you
Or would that just be a cliche?
We were friends once and I was excited
However you recited
Few words to which meant what?
Casual talk
To a stranger maybe but not
To a friend of many months!
Old and sad
Am I to say that you have gone away
And thought little of me left behind.

O hollow life!
Never being loved
A shortened time to pity
Always near the end
Sought love when none was there
Looked in the woods but not at the pond
Stared at the ground and missed the sun
Nothing inside but a broken heart
Failing and falling motion is too late
Feeling the cold hand about to embrace
Hard to breath hard to see
Blue eyes turn gray
Wishing for love but getting too late

You're selfish by always wanting my attention

Your smile makes me want to retch

The way your long brown hair flows over your soft sholders fill my stomach with bile

Your curvy little body causes me to heave

I can't stand that perfume you wear

Just because you look fantastic in that little red dress doesn't  mean I want to see you in it

Your ******* are overrated

Your kindness has got to be a joke.

No one can possibly be this nice all the time

You have to be putting on an act

Giving to the needy just as the cameras are on you

Always with the "thank you!" When I compliment your photos. How fake!

I hate you

Backward falling deeper still
A hole my body seems to fill
Distant thoughts not for this time
Longing for the tone of chimes
A sweet breeze of magnolia bloom
Southward home, fading room
A deepening sorrow beating the race
The finish line so close to taste
Salty water and heavy heart
Ghosts of those who haven't start
So many voices in casual glance
Was always hesitant to dance
Looking in for across the way
Had no trouble just to stay
Dark gray world with tints of blue
Blind man's search for extra time
A ship acast in open sea
Drifting along under a tree

Black night, little stars
A blue light facing Mars
Falling, circling, a magnetic embrace
Silent worlds' cosmic dance
Nuclear fusion expel and reunion
Fire and light, heat and conclusion
Life then comes, small but determined
Destined to rise sure to be certain

If her eyes were a song they would play a haunting melody.
Dark and alluring like a moonless summer night.
Deep tones of the cello kept afloat by slow violins.
Deep brown hue of the woodwind
A magnetic song drawing my soul ever closer to the abyss.
The wind shifts toward her.
Even nature is pulled to her melodic eyes.
The world goes quiet when the Siren sings.
No singing gull nor crashing wave can drown out the music from her two black pearls.

Where does the tide wave bend
When does the sun beam start to warm
Why does the sky fly high
Who makes a baby smile
What would make her love me
When did it shine so brightly
A heat from a thousand years
A comfort that brings me home
She says it for true
This beating of hearts
Is synchronized in time but apart for so long
An etherial world of time and space
The crash of many waves
Pound the coast that's gray
Emptiness away forever gone
But a wall too high will not allow
The mind knows the heart craves
But denial stays
Just awaiting for the shower
