Invocation
My hair is growing longer
I've lost weight - but not the bad way
this time
My new necklace
Your beard is longer too, oh it curls
What's that? Did you get that at work?
It doesn't look serious
I have nightmares
My artwork
Band logos
Smoke with me
Skylines
Tattoo ideas
Michelle's saggy ****, drawn hastily and without detail
but you prefer it that way
Oh how cute
your dogs are trying to steal your pillow
I guess I can be lonely
I'll fight with nobody
except for my stuffed animals for the
empty space

Tired, eyes bleary with sleep
But I force them open again
I can't doze off just quite yet
You have to go to work at ten

Sitting in front of my screen
My mind begins to wander
But I can't sleep quite yet
'Cause I still have to call her

I can see the sun glinting
Just through the window glass
But I just want to talk to her
Five minutes, that's all I ask

Well past four in the morning
My phone lights up the room
A smile fills my face
It says, "Hey honey, I love you."

The weight of these words
rolling around in my head
are breaking my neck
one thought at a time.

Goodbyes never hurt me
It's always the memories that follow
To live in such a cruel reality
A world so insensitive and shallow

A goodbye is just a moment
But the memories are stuck on replay
To think we deserve such torment
We remember each and every day

A goodbye will not hurt you
But the memories will shatter your being
Break your heart into pieces
Your life may even lose meaning

Goodbyes do not hurt you
They are only the beginning
A life that was once so simple
Turned into a life so unforgiving

Smoke coats the bottom of my lungs
to the walls of my throat
to the ceiling of my mind
clouding my resolve

But the heat of the ashes
is the only warmth between my fingers
since your hand left mine

You told me I'd be happier if you and me didn't exist but you forgot you're my happiness

A child need not be very clever
To learn that "Later, dear" means "Never."

Clumsy
in praise
I read such
beautiful poetry
But never know what to say
to convey
what I feel inside
For those times
when I am at a loss
for words
I <3 the poetry
though it leaves me
feeling inadequate
To all the poets
I follow and read
I just want to say
you all write
beautifully
I just may not
have the right words
to express...
words are lost
