You show everyone your mask

            You convinced us your happy

Playfully picking

                        laughing

                                   smiling

                                                loving

Anger falls into play

                                    You're gone

I never felt so hurt in my life

                                                You lied

Betrayal has come

               You have been unmasked

Lost in my dark forest of madness
Shapes and shadows form
Voices from a far untouchable place
Are they hallucinations
No it's you trying to pull me out
After all this time
Not sure if you are real
I don't want to fall
You hurt me once before
I have to try
I must run away

It starts with a simple smile
Flirting
Hugs
Kisses
Promises made.
There
is
no
more
flirting.
Hugs
Are
Almost
Nonexistent.
Have
To
Beg
For
A
Kiss.
Promises
Are
Always
Broken.
Like my heart.

No hatred,  No hurt  

                         No fear, No love

               Nothing  

Nothing here

                Nothing  there

                                Nothing anywhere  

                                                       Not a soul

                                            Not a heart

                               Not a person in  sight

                Every step I hear no noise in
                           this vast emptiness

     Much like I feel

                           There is nothing

Laying here staring at the stars.
I wonder if  your staring at them too.
My heart was so full of love.  
When you were near.
Lying to myself.
You will come back.
Everything will be OK.
Our lives will turn back to normal.
Tears falling from my face.
Feeling so
empty,
and
broken  hearted.
Not understanding why you left.
Heart breaking once more
knowing that your gone.
Unanswered questions,
I know I will never get the answers to.
What did I do wrong
to deserve any of this?

First Date
.
First Kiss
.
                First Love
.
Hearts race in a open field.  

Wind Blows
.
                         Crickets Chirp
.
Rivers Rush
.
Then bodies  collide  
                   Nothing else matters.
Her skin touches him,
And his to hers.
All they
                  Know ,
                                Think,
                                              Feel,             ­                 
          Believe,  
Is each other.
While  their bodies move,
              Loss,
Sadness,  
                  Regrets,
Are nowhere to be found.

Bacteria is a disease
We know of that
You can't prevent it by wearing a hat
A poem from my 7Th grade Science class
I thought it was funny 🙂
