She
she’s a wreck
she’s a mess
did that ever stop her?
she’s someone you can have for the day
then she’s gone for the night.
never hold her close,
she'll be gone before you know it
never put your leash on her
because then she'll chew right through it
she'll meet you head on
if you have the ***** to challenge
get her to care
and she'll follow you until the end

I tried to forget,
I tried to run,
I left so far away
Just to forget,
But I can't,
Forget.
Your memory stuck to my head
Like gum to a desk,
Just sitting there,
Getting filled with more pieces
Of time we spent
Of time we shared
Of memories lost
Of memories gained,
The good, the bad
The happy, and sad
These twisted memories
Of what we are?
Who we are?
But honestly were we anything?
Friends,
Or...
Lovers...
Lost to a disenchanted sense of time,
when things were simpler
Carefree,
Were school didn't matter
And looks weren't everything,
Were time and distance couldn't separate us.
That place is nothing more than a nightmare
A place I can't go,
A place of dark twisted dreams
That show the truth
A truth I can't yet know,
So..
I won't go,
I shouldn't go,
But I went,
And I came.
I found the truth
But what is truth?
Truth is just lies
Lies upon lies
Lies told throughout time,
Lies told so much
They become truths ,
So what is the truth?
You,
Me,
Together?
Maybe,
Maybe not,
All I can say is
My truth is my nightmare
My nightmare is my life
My life is my lie
And my lie is you.

i miss curling up

sticky, snail-like

with you close

next to me, radiating heat

like a warm mug of tea

sweetened, as if soaked in honey.

sticky, snail like

i miss your kiss,

slowly sipping on you

with the disposition of a sloth.

The end was quick and bitter.
Slow and sweet was the time between us,
slow and sweet were the nights
when my hands did not touch one another in despair but in the love
of your body which came
between them.

And when I entered into you
it seemed then that great happiness
could be measured with precision
of sharp pain.  Quick and bitter.

Slow and sweet were the nights.
Now is bitter and grinding as sand—
"Let's be sensible" and similar curses.

And as we stray further from love
we multiply the words,
words and sentences so long and orderly.
Had we remained together
we could have become a silence.

i stay hungry
so knowledge will feed me
but you stay full
on the tainted process
of contaminated lies
what they feed you in these pages
a rodent wouldn't touch
but you digest it happily
for it smoothes your troubled lines
and everyone knows

lines leave wrinkles

Runaway Baby,
on her road to Happiness.
Runaway Baby,
trying to hide her distress.
Run, Run, Baby.
Don't you ever look back.
Don't Cry Baby,
keep your head up and heart black.
Run Away Baby,
far away from all you know.
Hush Now Baby,
I know it's hard to let go.
Keep Running Baby,
but it's starting to hurt her feet.
That's Somebody's Baby,
sleeping out on the street.
Leave Here, Baby.
You know you can't stay.
My Sweet, Sweet Baby,
you'll soon find your way.
