I don't love you
You promised to love
To never hurt me
But that is exactly what you did
I don't love you
But really I would be lying if I said that
I love you
I gave one chance
Than another
Until you left me empty
Broken heart
Crying eyes
I love you
I don't know where this came from but I hope you like it

Who is the girl you bumped into in the hall
Who is the girl who never talks in class
That is me
Silent
The girl who no one notices
The girl who gets pushed in the hall
Thousand thoughts but you won't
Words trapped inside my mind
But I will forever remain invisible

Still Life

Hey I am dying
Because I am still living
I have this privilege
One of many livings
Still believing
that there is happiness
Not disguised sadness
In every part of life.

Still not dying breed
But there is flood of greed
Increasing with great speed
Last second swimming
I go in on the tenth
Drowning this moment
I am breathing
The end of air.
I opened my eyes
And looked up at the rain,
And it dripped in my head
And flowed into my brain,
And all that I hear as I lie in my bed
Is the slishity-slosh of the rain in my head.

I step very softly,
I walk very slow,
I can't do a handstand--
I might overflow,
So pardon the wild crazy thing I just said--
I'm just not the same since there's rain in my head.

The garden out back needs mowing, but autumn bees
Good bees at work and play don’t see it that way
And spin about in the October breeze
Wind-spinning in the sun their bee ballet

The freshening winds have motivated them
To gather up and gather in the last
The last of summer goods from limb and stem -
Their easy harvests of spring have long since passed

They work, they know the winter winds will blow -
So I must find a different lawn to mow
