 Sep 2012 a kind of nostalgia
gg
his voice is heavy and smooth
like the comforter on my bed
and I bury myself in it
Ambivalence sat in a corner staring off into space
as Antipathy tried so very hard to keep up with the pace
Cruelty crept up behind
to pinch them one by one
while Greed badgered them all
to be a part of the fun
Lust writhed upon its chair
and licked its lips upon a grin
Timidity cringed against the wall
bombarded by thoughts
of touching unholy sin
Narcissism saw no one else
while Awareness saw them all
When Love walked in
to join the group
the walls began to fall....
Just ******* be with her.

It’s always been her anyway.
You’re out with her,


But you’re sleeping next to me.
What do you want me to do?

It’s not so easy to ‘just get over you’

Your feelings are a light switch.

You were able to just turn them off.

My feelings are like the ocean tide.

You **** me off and I retreat back.

Then say something sweet,

Give me some false hope,

And I’m right back at the beach for more.
mixed signals
Should I cry?


Or start punching the walls?


Or both?
An invisible wall,
Placed between two bodies,
In the middle of a bed.

Two distant lovers,
Sleeping on opposite sides,
Together, and alone.

One warm blanket,
A couple flat pillows,
Two stubborn souls.
Sometimes,

I get the urge to call you 'babe' again.
okay, I lied. All the time.
He was ‘the one,’

while she was just another number.
