I knew life was not fair…I even believe in karma
However, not that every sin would be paid at the same time.
I try my best to hold the tears off and just keep on a smile
Yet each time I think more about you…
My heart breaks with each vivid memory
Bringing pure misery to my body.

I knew we would drift apart…I knew you would stop loving me
Although, never to the point where you would make me cry
Putting my best efforts in to knowing what is reality…
Turning on an empty space, I call bed; I know I will spend my nights alone
Waking up a quarter to two begging you to hold me

My heart runs on caffeine due to the restless nights.
After dawn, all I sense is your abandonment
Realizing you left me in the dark…

a dull ache of the soul,
a longing with nothing
to long for
not really a poem at all, moreso just a thought.

In the coolness of the forest
On a bed of thick hunter green moss I knelt
And lifted my eyes up to the dark sapphire sky
And prayed that God would help my Mom
To understand that I would do anything
Just to get her darling fuzzy feline beauties
Back and safe home
In the coolness of the forest this prayer I prayed
Very fervently and sincerely
To God who made all things
And as the cool breeze blowed my brown hair
I felt His presence standing there
Right beside me on the carpet of thick moss
Where my heart bled and tossed
The trees nodded and swayed
In the coolness of the forest
And my sorrows gave way
To the tears hiding behind
My blue eyes and long
Thick black eyelashes
I got control of myself
And forced myself
Just to cry
One teardrop
For appearance sake
But inside I
Couldn't stop
My heart
From
Bleeding

days like this, i want to
apologize to the sky
for not thanking it
every time it rains--

(too often i got
distracted by the way
your heartbeat sounds
alongside a storm

or how your eyes
become cloudy
like it is
outside

or your smile
you can't contain
when lightning strikes
and turns everything
purple)

but you're gone now,
and even still
i feel butterflies in my
stomach
every time it pours.

i wish i knew then
i didn't need you
to make things beautiful
it rained all day.  it's so gorgeous out now.

The time when all the flowers ballet
And when the lotus waltzes across the river
And the moon looks down with his pleasant smile
And the Fairies sing their lullabies
To hush to sleep the whole wide world

I shall try to catch up with people's
poetry and comments.

NOTE: I keep falling behind but I shall try to catch with your poetry and comments. It won't be easy but I'll try to do my best!!!
A Time will come in many of our lives
In which reflection will cause us to take a dive
In this metaphorical pool of memories we will cease to be who we are
And live once again from afar
When it comes time to return to the present
Many of us will reach for the closest anti-depressant
Try as we will to continue living through our days
Only heartbreak will we face
Till the shadow of death comes to claims us
