In the attic of his childhood was an old trunk and even though he couldn't pry it open, the muffled sobs coming from inside told him more than he wanted to remember.

-unknown
By brother would write this over and over when I was younger. I would watch him puzzeled, and wonder what meaning the words held and why he wrote them. However, looking back now, his reasoning is perfectly clear. What does it mean to you?? (Ps. Does anyone know where this came from?)

I harbor adolescent fears
I wade in insecurity
lost in this black hole
I call a soul

Blame
Katherine D May 2015
ignorance is bliss with a kiss
you could dismiss your choice is this
you had your night of fun
and look what has begun

the lady was taught how to plot
you got caught and took the shot
you took at it alone
your regret is your own

here comes the lady kinda shady
caring your baby oh no maybe
you should have used protection
on that *******

not a clue when you said I do
the glue that would ensue
you told your college days farewell
and hello to your days of hell

I came to be time to flee
you wouldn't agree you stayed with glee
you chose to pick up the pen
without a single amen

your trust we must adjust
for her lust was truly unjust
you should have gotten a test
and kept your address

you signed with pen your own sin
it came from within but then again
you jumped the gun
and its too late to run

If
Katherine D May 2015
If
I lay back at night
I wonder what it would be like
If I heard what others heard
saw what they saw

If at night mother really cooked
and brothers weren't hooked
where hugs and kisses
were real

If dad didn't have to run
and could stay for the fun
where lights were on
and food wasn't gone

If  with child mother stayed
and dreams didn't fade
where children stayed children
for the rest of their days

The moment ends
as quickly as it begins
for the baby calls out
to my sister I must tend

Why did you leave
on a mid-summer eve?
In you I believe
and could not perceive.

Why did you desert?
I hit the dirt,
running on high alert,
but couldn't escape the hurt.

Why did you leave me to raise
your daughter in a daze?
You condemned me to a maze,
you set my dreams ablaze.

What was your campaign?
What did you hope to attain?
I am assaulted by pain
and deemed insane.
            
You left me in the cold
with truths untold
I was sold
for fool's gold.

I remember
Katherine D Feb 2015
I remember
your warm smile
your calming voice
your gentle touch
your soft lips
your strong, protective hands

I remember
how happy I was in your arms
how you loved all my flaws
how you could always make me smile
how you never gave up on me
how your hand fit perfectly in mine

I remember
when you kissed me in the pouring rain
when we tried to count the stars in the night sky
when we spent the day curled up on your couch
when we hiked for hours by the river for no reason at all
when we took off to the beach for a week just to be together

Then came the storm,
it took you away in the blink of an eye
our time together went on standby

Along with my smile.

A story lies
  within theses eyes.
a story unheard,
  completely absurd.

A truth untold
  is about to unfold.
a truth contains no lies
  but oh so many ties.

A path forgotten  
  grows rotten.
a path will cost
  all will be lost.

A heart not taught  
  is left distraught.
a heart grown cold
  will lose its hold.

A soul unprotected
   can be subjected.
a soul left bone dry
  will surly die.  

        ~K.D.
