My 3 sons

Qualyxian Quest

I feel death bearing down
The transience of my life
Aging, slowly aging
The pain that living brings

My sons play video games
Keep them moving forward
My darling, darling boys
Seattle surely sings

Viva!

Rose Yet To Bloom

Hypocrisy

I can't trust you,
To whom "I love you"
Has nothing to do
With the things you do.

Acid Tongue

I'll speak your name

until it's not pretty anymore

Until it's so sharp and so distorted

it burns my cheeks like acid.

It's what I'm good at, I'm told.

For the best

If you come back to
find me dead, it's just because
I see what you meant

I won't
but I wish I would.

Five Senses

Jul 6 The last Poet

Lynn Stillman

Five Senses

Tasted the tears of regret
Touched the softness of a newborns skin
Saw vices steal a man's life
Heard the sparrows song at dusk.
Smelled the rotting flesh of death.

The Keys

There are the sea winds
And the white sails overhead
Dolphins swim below

I wrote this haiku
Just to prove a point in words:
No one reads these days.

Suicide

Jul 5 The last Poet

Kai

Suicide

A quick, (not) painless way
To abandon all of your struggles.
An attempt to feel special, they say,
While in reality it's so much more.

They say only a coward would do it,
But i tried to take the life
Of the child i once were,
And the adult i could become.

So im alive i guess.... I can't really write that well yet but at least I have a boyfriend now so maybe i won't **** myself, i dunno
