he kissed me
by the river —
soft, sweet,
almost right.

but he wasn’t you.
and he didn’t notice
that quietly,
our magic slipped away.

he sent me a text,
still in a haze,
wearing the memory
of my taste
on his lips.

as i read it, i cried.

because i wanted the boy
who broke me,
instead of the boy
who tried.
this one is about trying to move on, when your heart still belongs to someone else.

deafening corruption
on a world stage

pulling levers
to mask your sins

a corrupted soul
nowhere to hide

many say that to literally drop dead is the way to go
but I am not so sure and in the end who knows.

murdering criminals are not blind to their deceit
they just suppose having done it all their life
what else would anyone expect
Last night,
I watched stars fall
through my window—
small, burning fragments
of some distant silence.

I thought,
in the hush of morning,
I could gather them,
hold them
like forgotten dreams.

But daylight came,
and they were gone—
dissolved
into the ordinary.

a sickly smile loaded with arrogance
across the face of defeat
mama sang a song of a bluebird sky
when it was time for bed sang her lullaby
she would sing it to me till my eyes began close
then to her lullaby i would gently doze

had the voice of angel as gentle as can be
wrote the song herself especially for me
all about the bluebirds in the bluebird sky
that made me fall asleep when she sang her lullaby

now im all grown up with children of my own
i sing them a bedtime song that ive always known
mamas  bluebird song of a bluebird sky
the one she wrote to me her bedtime lullaby
