To be?
Or not to be?
A slave who seeketh heavenly aimer!!!

For shalt I dare?

Still waiting in limbos fate!
I will not continue to regret my contradictions
because I am an atheist who cannot let go of god
I am a lover who loves so hard it comes of as hate.

I will not continue to carry the burden left by bad days
by bad people whom I cant convince myself are all that bad
by bad memories that feel like rubber band snaps.

I will not continue to wait for things to make sense
and I will not wait for clear skies to see stars.
Standing here, between two walls
Doors, unnumbered, crowd the hall
Behind each door a secret kept
Of fears, of lies, of tears been wept
Portals each to different worlds
Lessons learned from little girls
Listen as the truth unfolds
Tales untold of a *wounded soul

The body
I want
exists
through the veil of blood that spiderwebs above my eyelids.

The soul
I so desire
screams out like nails on a chalkboard, across my vanes-
and alone, underneath the cupboard drawer.

The human
I loved
hides underneath my larynx
and rests so heavily upon my soul.

It is the monster under my bed
but, I am no longer five so-
I assume night lights are out of the question.
there was once a time
when i was
willing to do every crime
for you
and then i realized i was a fool
 Jun 2015 The Broken Poet
Sarah
Beautiful
The word you said as you kissed my lips
You've repaired me
Helped me
Helped me love myself
When i could barely love another
Hugged me so tight the broken pieces fit together

Now you've ripped out the stitches you repaired me with
You've moved on without warning
The stitches you've reclaimed
being weaved into another's soul

Beautiful
that wonderful word carved from the Earth
the joyful word we all love
ruined forever
as you kiss another's lips.
Cheater
Betrayed
You've lost my love
Maybe that's what you were trying to do
All along...
I want to take a dive in to your psyche
Tread past every memory and thought
Ride the tides of your emotions
And every tsunami you've ever sought

I want to take a deep breath and immerse,
Propel myself to your ocean floor
Where the darkness and the unknown
Has always existed but was never explored
I want to pick your brain.
Face the truth.
Face the reality.
As you send some flowers too, the girl who loves you.

Recognize her.
Just surprise her.
Write a poem of two, to the girl that loves you.

Nothing amazed a woman to know of her importance to her man.
Here she will understand just why you call her woman.

So hold her hand.
Don't be a timid man.
Hiding behind a created image.

Say it out loud.
Even explain it to your child.
Why you do what you do?
For the woman that loves you.

So deeply.
So completely.
So sweetly.
So uniquely.
