My dog looks into my eyes

Whimpering – her speech dies

As I caress her soft, imploring head

I tell her to go lie down in her bed



And rest her wandering mind.

Within her eyes lie many realms

Of unfathomable truths that bind

Together a world that overwhelms.

Another day locked up in a room full of silence
Every thought is hushed away in her mind
No one listens
No one cares what she has to say
Hatred begins to scratch at her window
But she ignores it like everyone else does to her
The silence is becoming too overbearring
Her thoughts consume her
She is finally breaking
Screaming and kicking her door she hopes for a reaction
But once again she is ignored
Locked away in her little room of silence

Do you think about what a small boy does, when
He throws a mussel into the surf?
The shell ruptures into smithereens,
The shocking orange entrails exposed,

The cold salty water flushes the hole.
Slowly everything inside disintegrates.
It melts into the galaxy of foam.

The boy will someday wade in. Swim in. Throw his empty bottles in.

Maybe as a father, it’s in this same foam his children will learn to float.

And someday the boy will die. And a sunflower will grow on his grave, in full blossom. The seeds will be thrown into the sea by another little boy. And he will find himself at the scene of his first ******.

This morning, I shall be.
I chose to sit on the sidewalk,
draw things on it with a chalk.
Avoiding people who wants to talk.

This morning, I shall be.
I chose to sing near the sea.
Voicing out lyrics, with great glee.
An enchanting siren, they called me.

This morning, I shall be.
I travelled miles on my own feet.
A smile for everyone I would meet,
A simple bow for those I greet.

This morning, I shall be.
My brain was filled in every nook,
for I just finished reading a book.
Great fantasies, they always cook.

This morning, I shall be.*
The world's greatest, I believe.
Be proud of what you achieve,
with surprises up on your sleeve.

I tried, I attempted
Does that count?
I tried to open your mouth
I only longed for emotion
Hopeful of an honest response
You dropped my feelings
Into silence
And left my hand alone
Your eyes are empty
Lost in some memory
Or  perhaps you've forgotten
Until there is nothing
Only you
I attempted
But you let me go

Not a word spoken.
Not a word to speak.
A single glance that lingers, at what once was.
A image of oneself,
A love we thought would last.
In its place an unmet desire,
To be complete,
To be full again.

The darkness that surrounds my heart.
A welcoming evil grin.
The shadow that clouds the light,
not of my own, But the fear that stands before me,
that rules me.

An empty shell of a former self.
For you have stolen what was left.
The last of my soul I gave to you.

As time passes all hope fades.
A quiet sound this emptiness brings.
A single  prayer seeps through,
Only but a whisper.
That as time and hope begins to dull,
I may finally be able to let go

Cheap wine will entwine with
***** dreams
As we fall into an idyllic slumber
Our hearts will thaw
And come dawn
we will feel again
__________

Hold me close
The ceiling is giggling
The furniture is conspiring against me
___________

Pretty girls foaming at the mouth
And other pleasant imageries
__________

Trip over your carefully crafted trickery
Tumble down the bottomless grave
You dug for the betrayed
The exquisite sting of karmic balance
