Time

I wish I could cry.
Just to flush out all the tears,
left festering.

High

I was once so high.
Saw the essence of my life.
As it passed me by.

Truth

Truth

You know the saying.
Money can't buy happiness.
I am rich with it.
And I'll admit I'm dirt poor.
Truth cannot be bought.

Fear

I love and fear you.
That's what life's taught me to do.
To not trust in you.

Two Feet (Tanka)

It's so hard to stand,
firmly on your own two feet.
When you're pushed and shoved,
knocked completely off balance,
by every person you meet.

Expired

Where did your dreams go?
Did they expire over time,
or hide in your mind.

Tomorrow

Tomorrow's meaning.
Something you look forward to.
Or yesterday's mask.

Can't Save You

I cannot save you.
From you or anyone else.
I can't jump through hoops.
