Bitter, bleeding rocks fill my mouth.
I have so much that I want to say,
But nothing comes out.

The harsh truth,
Known by us both,
Will never be spoken.

How cowardly of us.

me.gs

God,
I can't believe I was so stupid.

You made a fool of me,
Which I thought nigh impossible.

You selfish girl.
You knew what you were doing.

You coward.
You knew what you were doing.

me.gs

You were
Right.

You are selfish.
Keeping my heart when yours was already gone from my
Grasp
Without me even knowing.

Letting my try to keep you,
Not even knowing it was
Too late.

Because you were already
Gone.

me.gs

So many promises we made...
Never to be filled

Empty words,
Empty promises,
Made with full minds and mouths.

It's so unfair.
I didn't even get a
Chance.

me.gs

I think what hurts the most is
You didn't say
You loved me back

me.gs

Ink-stained hands,
Ripped up heart
And all I want to know is:

Where do I go from here?
How can I recover?

me.gs

I guess
I can take solace in the fact that
Nobody else can *******
Like I can

me.gs

I never wanted this
I don't want this

All I wanted
All I want
Is you

But I can't have you

So I guess I'll have to make do.

me.gs

It feels like my heart is being crushed in a vise
Or drowned

****
I just want to be able to breathe without thinking of you
And how you broke my ******* heart

me.gs

I just stood out in the rain,
As if that can wash away my heartbreak,
As if that can fix the pain in my chest.

me.gs

Rain hits the ground,
Bringing new life to the flowers.

me.gs

As I sit on my bed and
Look out the windows, I
Am drawn to the clouds,
Thundering ominously.

And as I sit on my bed,
I
Wonder what you're thinking.

Do you
Think of me as much as I think
Of you?

Do I want to know?

Perhaps that's why they
Thunder.
It's a warning.

me.gs

You look like a Renaissance painting come alive,
Holy beauty and heavenly heart you are.

Were that I could capture your visage,
You'd be another Mona Lisa.

me.gs

What I want to say is-
...I mean-
Well what I wanted to tell you is...

I love you.

me.gs

First and last poems are a pain,
By that I mean I
Attach so much expectation to them that
I can hardly write the
**** things.

me.gs

There's something about a gym at midnight,
The proud stillness of everything,
As if even the wood in the floor knew the achievements won here.

The scrapes and scratches tell so many stories...
A jump, a dash, a full stop.

This gym holds valor.

me.gs

I think it's me that breaks my heart,
Not other people

So instead of doing something about it,
I'm
Going to sit here and
Smoke cigarettes

me.gs

Black dust in orbit,
Spilling darkness into the light

Where do we go from here?
I'm dying in my head,
Screaming.

What more can I do?

It's so tiring, you know.

I'm sorry.

I just want some rest.

me.gs

Without you I am lonely

My insides sit heavy in me
And I cannot bring myself to be happy.

How can I be happy when you are so many
Miles
From my heart?

And how can I be joyful when there is no laugh like yours to rebound in the corners of my tragically empty skull?

I turn into a bit of a husk with you, you see.

I need your love to fill me up.

me.gs

You wonder where the people are,
Glancing from corner to corner,
Hoping they'll appear for one brief-
MOMENT-
It's done.

There is no more.

me.gs

If you asked me where my humanity was hidden,
I would gape at you.

I would not answer,
For I do not know myself where it has holed up,
Protecting itself from the travesties and hatred of this globe.

me.gs

Pistons misfiring,
Neurons haywire,
The general tiredness sets in...

It's been a long night.

me.gs

Shrine in my lungs,
Breathing prayers into the fan's air currents.

The music thumps,
Sending ripples our way.

Where do I find silence and stillness?

me.gs

The lights softly hum in the dark air.
Stars shine overhead,
Casting lonely bits of light to earth.
The air is sweet and soft,
And I am thankful for the coolness it brings.

Who said you can't find peace in a city?

me.gs

Hot air flows around me,
Bathing me in warmth

...I wish I was in an ice bath.

me.gs

Black is the color of truth
It has no pretenses,
It is not flashy,
It's just simply there.

me.gs

The more you travel,
The bigger your worldview gets,
And your heart as well.

me.gs

Creaky
Old
House

Needs grease in its joints

me.gs

I can hear only the thrum of my fan
And the passing of cars

The house sits still;
It has nothing to say.

me.gs

Soft summer breezes
Floating in through the windows,
Cool my heated skin.

me.gs

I am cold.

And all I wish is to crawl into a bed with you.
It does not matter to me if the bed is warm
We can heat it with our love,
Blazing hot/

I am cold.

And all I wish for is you.

me.gs

How long Must I Wait?
To have you in my arms again,
Touching places only we know?

Deprived of air,
Deprived of water,
Deprived of food...

No, it is something worse.
Those do not measure up
To being deprived of you.

me.gs

Your touch,
Phantasmic,
Rests fleetingly on my skin.

You were like all good things...
Gone too soon.

me.gs

Mountains...
Greater even than the karsts
The moon itself must climb them to shine in the sky

Black rock towers,
Capped with snow
The sharp angles of the faces,
Cutting the sky

Mountains...
Earth's true giants.

me.gs

With branches overhanging me,
I feel cocooned in Mother Nature.

With stone beneath me,
My base and stance are strong.

And with the karsts before me,
I know I have so much to learn.

me.gs

The karsts poke up through the trees
They are great giants, holding up the sky.

Mysteries, all of them.

me.gs

"Are you in love?"

...

As if feelings can be quantified, measured with time.
Am I following your Timeline of love?

I should hope not.

me.gs

The water swirls and whirls,
With calm spots scattered amongst the rushing rest.

Such is life.

me.gs

I  see the rocks outside my window,
A wall of impenetrable stone.

The water falls from the clouds and rushes down the rocks,
Hitting leaves on the way.

The tropical green leaves contrast with the earthy black stone...
Beauty comes in many colors, sounds, and is not always what one thinks it to be.

me.gs

Two souls meet.
One is blue, the other red.
One is bright and jittery,
The other darker and slower-moving.

But they meet, and a curious thing happens.
They start spinning together, intertwining in a column, shooting up.
And what they create is... beautiful.
Synergy.

me.gs

A lion may roar,
While the wind whispers,
And who can understand the leaves?

Nature creates a symphony...
It is up to you to find the beat.

me.gs

The branches form an arch over me,
And I am protected overhead as I journey along this path.
What beautiful cover, indeed!

me.gs

With the sun glancing on the ground,
I find warmth in odd-shaped windows between trees;
It helps me fight of the chills.

me.gs

The cool of the forest washes over me,
As the breeze filters through the branches
Trees stand quietly around me,
While the moss sits with equal silence.

The rain has brought peace and green to the woods once again.

me.gs

I feel the sadness
Its tendrils ghost past my soul
I forge on through the light
I will not let it touch me
I have worked too hard
For too long
To wander off this path

me.gs

If what I felt for her was electric shocks in my nervous system,
Then what I feel for you is a gas,
Gently permeating through my body
Quieter (but no less powerful),
Softer,
But swelling more and more each day,
Filling my body till it leaks through my nose,
A small stream of yellow feeling.

me.gs

It's curious...
I feel as though I've touched your skin
A thousand times
And we still
Have yet to meet

How can I know someone's body and soul so well
Even though I don't?

me.gs

The sun shines,
The water drips,
And the birds chirp.

There is peace to be found in the air today,
And happiness.

me.gs

I've never been as infatuated with someone's hands
As I am with yours

me.gs

Stone-cold greys bring light to the skies
I sense doom...
What will the day bring?

me.gs
