Inescapable
D Rice Nov 2010
Pound. Pound. Pound.
I cannot escape!

I feel. I feel. I feel.
What do I feel?

It's indescribable,
yet right beneath the surface

Is it slowly destroying me?
or
Is it what defines me?

As I stare off into space,
all I want are answers

I then blink and realize.....

There is nothing
I can do.

Thoughts Remain
D Rice Dec 2010
Laying in bed
Trying to read
Thinking of you

Thoughts fill my head
You're all I need
I'm thinking of you

All the things left unsaid
Never thought anything could impede
I still think of you

Looking too far ahead
I continue to bleed
I'm thinking of you

I was misled
Left here bloodied
Thinking of you

Emotions dead
Heart emptied
Thoughts remain

The Hen and Chick
D Rice Nov 2010
After arriving at my new home
I knew I was where I was meant to be
It was a place where I felt warmth,
I felt loved.

As time went by I felt like things were changing
But not for the worse, only the better
I eventually could see

You were more Beautiful than I could have ever imagined.
You were everything to me.
There was nothing more in this world
That I could have asked for.

Every day I felt comfortable in knowing
We would be there for each other.
Every day I woke up and looked into your eyes
I knew I couldn’t imagine life without you in it.
You were my life.

I still think about the day you left.
Never did I think that would be my last day with you.
I was left alone.

I had to learn to fly without you.
I fell to the ground.
To this day I’m still struggling to get by.

I still wait for you to come back to me,
so that we can fly together.
