A Poet 4h
I never wished you bad,
    I wish you the best, after you broke me.
What is stolen departs,
    & when I cried and you laughed,
I never as your enemy,
    for the love you want , you wont find in him.
your yes will watch, his distant gaze,
     as it continues to depart, for another's bloom
          that will mirror my ghost.
that will be your constant fear,
            for everything in life is paid in one way,
and he will do the same thing to you.
            I just wish you realize, before you're in my place.

A single ugly monster keychain remains,
it whispers through the garbage juice stains,
I'm sorry I threw it away, and dug it from the trash once more.
memories surge, of your sly smile, the subtle wink and the dominating gaze.
free me from these half-forgotten dreams.

I trace each line upon your face, your eyes, your mouth
searching for an answer , why, why why?
I want to be near you, I want to feel the warmth,
only to dig myself more into this hole of longing.
this keychain is all I hold, please , give me the strength to throw it away, to throw us away.
I am weak, for this story tragically untold.
wanting, longing, pleading, hoping.

Today was the first day of silence,
no answer,
no text,
the message was simple and hurtful,
it was goodbye.
A Poet Apr 16
To my bright heart.

i'm sorry,
for the way i let you linger,
in solitude,
of their indifference.

sorry for the nights,
i ignored your cries,
chasing circles,
like I always do,
of unreturned affection.

forgive me,
for handing your warmth,
to hands that broke it.

i should have loved you better,
i'll take this pain and turn it into something better
for both of us, i promise
I'm loving me. . .
this time and forever.
A Poet Mar 25
Don't give me up,
I wanted to fight this pit in my chest,
but your hands, built a different home.
a beautiful garden, with a white picket swing,
and two souls that aren't mine,
I am just a ghost.

Don't give me up,
My love, a tumultuous sea of emotion,
of longing, of want, of pain.
this weight I carry in my chest,
where echoes of your laughter bloom,
but not for me.

Perhaps, in another life, in another time, in a distant future.
where sunlight is dark,
where rivers run backwards,
where clocks stand still,
we will meet again.
what is this pain? how unfair is this love. .  

Look at me, look at the battles I fought,
look the wars and bullets I took in silent rooms,
the pleas, the tears, I swallowed in the night,
you would see my hand, alone waiting for you warmth.

I asked you to choose,
what for? I already knew the answer.
you walked away, you didn't fight. . .
you fought for them, and left me on this battlefield in my chest,
broken, maimed, longing but above all loving,
someone who does not love me,
& that is the most painful thing in the world.
-Goodbye.

What are you waiting for?
I want you to claim me,
mark me, this space is yours.
The unspoken desire, name it,
this unspoken bond, make it reality.

Map the hidden places with your hands,
I've never felt this way, this deep,
this supernatural realm
beyond the ordinary, beyond, the surface
claim me, name it, make me yours,
so please ยขเธ„ptiเธ‡เธ„tฤ“ เน“ฤ“
tonight.

Ash
I've done it again,
held your hand,
rested my head on your chest,
bought breakfast and coffee,
asked "have you ate"
What is it about you?
the nose, the eyes that exude warmth,
the smile that makes everything feel okay?
Nevertheless, I am a fool,
longing for your love,
yearning for your touch,
waiting for the day you see me,
waiting for the day
that your heart is free of the tumultuous sea
of heartache, pain, and abuse
she puts your through

one sided love,
an art form,
I have mastered

you take my funds,
my being,
my smile
my heart

I am dying
wallowing in my self pity
"what is wrong with me"
I turn and burn
in this ardent flame of longing
I would I could escape the ash of what is left
rise and become reborn
but I am a fool,
longing for your love
waiting for you to say
"I love you" back
waiting for your love
waiting
waiting
waiting for your love
