some nights
my heart aches so terribly
i can feel it
in my eyelids
begging them to close
to escape for a few hours
of peace.

Writing a Poem

Writing a Poem

Today
I decided to write a poem
To put words together
In such a way
As to express
My innermost feelings

And I lost the words
And my thoughts drifted
And my computer keys stuck
And nothing came forward

So
Perhaps tomorrow
I will write a poem
To express my life
And for today
Perhaps
I’ll just go
Outside
To play

Falling

Falling

She said "I'm falling in love."

I said "I'm falling apart."

What's the difference?

Like You

Like You

I realized I couldn’t become you.
Today, after years of fear
Burning at the back of my throat like fire,
I realized,
If I had the ability
To become like you at all,
The tears in her eyes
Wouldn’t have put tears in mine

tolerance

the thought of hurting me
no longer hurts you.

Help

Desperate for attention
I fear to be alone.
Craving your affection.

A Friend in me

A Friend in me

Do you see
what I see?

Do you see
A friend in
me?

Am I
What you want
me to be?

Am I
enough for you
to be heard
or to be seen?

Is there anything
wrong with me,
if so will you
tell me?

Am I green
or am I grey?

Am I
good enough
for you to stay,
or will you
leave me astray?

All I know
Is how
I feel

And sometimes I
Wish I
Knew nothing

another closed door

eileen

another closed door

I burned out

cut ties
erased everything

we weren't friends
why are we pretending

you won't even notice
I'm leaving out the front door

starting to breathe

all our memories
moments we spent together

will feel so meaningless

not yet
not now

soon
