Torture
(ˈtôrCHər)

Torture, the infliction of severe physical or mental pain
or suffering for a purpose, such as
coercing a confession, or inflicting punishment.

Torture
(ˈtôrCHər)

Making me pay everyday,
By loving someone else that treats you well
For hurting you and breaking you
The way I did

The world is so vast
I want to explore it all
With someone I love

To sit on a porch is a wonderful thing,
An act of peace, wrapped in serenity.

The will-o-wisps past, rustling turning leaves,
A cadence of crickets, soothing melodies.

Good for the heart, even better for the soul,
Embracing that place, this moment as a whole.

Sometimes
The panic
Is more dangerous
Than the pandemic

wine turns to vinegar
roses to dust
and before the leaves turn in the autumn
i have to let you go

Babies are adorable
But they grow to be deplorable
Have you ever seen a teen
They just ain’t that keen
But at least there’re moldable

Break my bones;
cut my throat.
Pull me open,
learn the ropes.

Breath me in;
taste the fear.
Shank my skin;
stand and cheer.

Kick my head;
let me bleed.
Unbolt my veins;
enjoy the read.

Gouge my eyes;
punch my face.
Wrap me up
in your embrace.
Get to know me like I do you; inside and out.

I chased after you
But you disappeared
And I never had a chance
To catch up

For I couldn’t follow you
Where you were going

You weren’t going to
The ends of Earth
You were going beyond

But you needn’t worry
It might take me a
Little while

But one day
I’ll follow you
There as well
