Learn to love your tears.
They are
falling
for
you.

your name is
forbidden in
my mouth
or in my heart
because when
i think about
you;

i'll cry a little more,
hurt a little stronger
love a little softer
because you no longer
make me feel sober

i'm drunk on the
memory of you
if only i could chase you with pizza but shots don't work like that

through days of darkness
and nights of bittersweet dreams
my love for you will never fade,
and neither will i

People like us
like to keep things from other people.
We don’t find it rather comforting
to have others meddle in our business.

But sometimes,
it’s nice to let the world know
that I am yours and you are mine.

But then--
how could we
when we can’t even make the story of us a possibility?
When we’re unsure of what’s true,
When we are but a secret?

I don't miss her and I never will,
I miss the pure ecstasy of being in ones heart.
I became complacent in my position,
And Now I embrace whatever crumbs of attention I get.

I crave contentment for living,
I seek for reasons to stay rather than to confront my reasons to go.
I don't want pity nor compliments,
I want to rant and to feel and to hurt and to break and to live in peace.

But, nay.
Peace at heart is not achievable
For I gave mine to her.
I swim in pools of sorrow
Begging,
to make me even half a man
As I am a shadow
A broken spirit of a person
A small percentage, fractions
Pondering the dire consequences of my pitiful actions.

Is a poet still a poet
If they do not write?

A journal gathering dust,
But a yearning to write.
Am I still a poet
Without my inner light?
I'm sorry I haven't written a while! Love you all

Love?

They say that love is
Deep
Kind
Long
and Wide
But for me love is
Dead
Dark
Elusive
and Painful
And when my tear stained face finds a gentle hand to wipe away my sorrows
I fall in love
Or perhaps I fall in line
I’m not sure there’s a difference anymore

Gravity died,
Or so it seemed to us, who were to die,
All loose objects vortical,
Yet static,
                 car spinning,
side over side, the policeman said,
No one could've survived,
Radial blur
All in the rearview
Thud of impact, Thud of stillness
No screams till the spinning wheel ceased
and then only one,
                                 melting like snow upon asphalt.
