Walking on this thin line
slowly tripping over my tears
trying to catch you as
you walk away, leaving me
alone.
I see you pause, to look back
and see me desperately chasing
you. Moving on after a moment
I try to run
I try to do more
to catch you
but I can't even get a grip
on the wisps of you
as I fall behind.

*******
For giving me false hope
Making me believe the lies that came from your mouth
*******
For letting me look foolish
Making me believe that you actually cared for me
*******
For deceiving me
Making me believe that you were faithful to me
*******
For wasting my time
Making me believe that it was going to be worth it

*******

everything was to change
it was the nature

one describe
as a comfortable coze

far and away
there's no more beautiful

Cracked skulls lie shattered upon intact glass
Battered yet still an unshadowed attempt at life holds true
Silica outlines shine like pearls they strived to be
They'll make their best efforts to thrive unlike me

I am the dead man on a cloud of see-through lies
All my previous lives, cracked skulls

It's time to try
It's not yet time to die

Again

The Forgotten
Whispered into the ears that shall never listen

And blown away along with the piles of withered autumn leaves..

You have been together since birth
Do animals grieve?
You seek out my company now a little more
on the back of the couch, head draped over my shoulder
as I write, your fuzzy head on my knee
You, the runt, the littlest one grown into the biggest
Over twenty pounds of Israeli's finest cross eyed street cat
Rescued at the same time, you were near death
your brother tried to escape into the inner workings of the car
stopped by my grabbing his tail
He was always the stronger one, the faster one
the normal one
You wait for him now, when it's time to eat
While he struggles to his feet, nothing but a skeleton
We will have each other when he's gone
but I think you will miss him, too

Why does time go fast and sometimes slow
the numbers stay still as time flows
as minutes pass everything gets old
and as seconds pass your heart rate starts slowing
the hands on the clock ticks and starts glowing
and the hours fast increases
as you are stuck in a endless cycle, your heart stops working
as you reveal on what your new future holds
