Please don't leave me.

I am crying,
Tears fall from my eyes,
Cause i am picturing that I'll never,
Never again be at your side,
This thought is crushing,
It cripples me,
Busts my heart open wide,
Shards on the floor that sparkle,
Sparkle in blood and tears,
Horrified by my overwhelming fear.

Please don't leave me.

Please Don't Leave Me

Please don't leave me.

I am crying,
Tears fall from my eyes,
Cause i am picturing that I'll never,
Never again be at your side,
This thought is crushing,
It cripples me,
Busts my heart open wide,
Shards on the floor that sparkle,
Sparkle in blood and tears,
Horrified by my overwhelming fear.

Please don't leave me.

Industrial Future

Industrial noises,
The digging sounds productive,
Development of future,
Where other bodies are drowned.

A Whole Person

In sheer desperation I hide,
No one can see; gone,
Removed from the flaming eyes,
The burning glare; probing,
Mourning myself; I changed,
For you I altered my views; shifted,
And now you've left me; gone,
A whole person; gone,
A whole person to whom I don't belong.

Pages

Too many blank pages,
I'm eager to write,
But the words are a struggle,
In the broad daylight.

As i stare at the page,
Visions make me write,
Then the words flow like fountains,
In the day and night.

Say No

My arms feel heavy,
Lead weights pull me down,
My legs feel sluggish,
Hard to walk around.

No more,
Say no.

My eyes feel weary,
Shutters in the wind,
My mouth feels barren,
Hushed because I sinned.

No more,
Say no.

Five Grams Later

Five grams later and a truck load of beer,
Still my heart is aching,
Still you're not here.

Five grams later and a truck load of wine,
Your distance is present,
Such changing times.

Five grams later and a truck load of tears,
What made you go away?
Why aren't you here?
