You can't be in my club anymore (second revision)

I stopped calling

     stopped texting

             unfriended you on Facebook (LOL-not even my account....I don't have one) today

We've been friends for more than half my life

     more than friends from time to time (FWB....BFF....NSA.....OMFG!)

            and now it's like neither of us exists

Because you had to lie

     you had to hold out....lead me on

          to cover your *** for doing something I repeatedly told you to do (***!!??)

So painfully slowly I'm erasing you

      deleting you

           turning my mind off  you (IMY  :-(  XO)

Any present moment Nov 2013

Be mine...? (Is this a joke?)

Will you pretend to forgot
     all that can't be forgotten?
Could you look away
     from the past that left you so broken?
Might you clean the slate
      erasing the sins that shattered?
Should you wave your hands
     to clear the dust from the air?
Can you ever allow yourself
     to breathe again?

inaudible scars

mark my words
they are in my head
and infuse my heart
with deep meaning
and trivial blather
no room for
fantasy
no foolish wasted
energy
hoping for the
happily ever after*
silence is all you hear
with your deaf ears

Bittermuch

As you can plainly see

I've been consumed

By a series of painful wounds

Inflicted by careless and selfish emotional rapists

Shooting the arrows of their defective lives

At me

So what? (revised)

Your I love yous
tumble as effortlessly
as every lie
you ever licked me with.
Your resounding sigh
of passion's release
surely sounds the same
as it did with each of them.
Your empty promises
to honor and cherish
remain broken and suffocated
beneath your ego.
For us
there is no
before them.
How can there be
an after?

Any present moment Oct 2013

I've poured myself empty

The last crimson drop

I gave away to you

Now all that's left

Is the crusty residue

The stain of emptiness

Permanent-has become my vice

Despite drowning myself

In seas of amber and ice

So Trite Luna

She was the moon
     that pulled his tides
He worshipped her ghostly glow
     each time the dark settled in
She was the sun
     that lit his path
And drew him
     the proverbial moth to flame

She was sustenance
     air
     water
     fire
     earth

He chose a new satellite
Changed his orbit
Left her on the dark side
Casting no more shadow.
