I arrive, weary, weak, wonderous
Daily work of a woman, it seems
It's not over, never over...

She sits in her spot,
beneath the shine of the evening sun.
A deep inhale, soft expulsion of my sanity.

I smile into her glare, a calm resolute
To the coming war.
Her eyes like daggers enflaming every flaw.
Of those things entombed within,
That bite, scratch, and gnaw.

And oh how my skin does crawl!
Oh how I yearn for the day to dance upon her in celebration of a life well lived...
Well over.

I love her, in all her 90 ways
I love her much more on her better days

Yet my heart can be fooled
When her monsterous drool
Exudes from her voice
As nails on a chalkboard
Giving me no choice

Her songs of songbirds
Vultures to my fate

You see, sweet little flower lady
Seems tame, makes me to blame
A crazed woman, who only has me
to suffer the sins that she has carried.

I should have turned around
that horrible night
I wish I turned around
as you held me tight

instead I laid there
and pretended to sleep
I acted like you weren’t there
and wanted you to leave

how horrible of me
to close off my heart
how cruel of me
to ignore your scars

I watched as your heart bled
and then tried to get away
while pounding your head
as you begged me to stay

when you asked why
I told you your prior mistakes
you started to cry
as I watched your heart break
with sorrow in your eyes
regret was there
but I was so blind
I didn’t even care

being
a good person
when you don't want to be
good
is easier
than being mean
even though
your blood is
boiling

i'm selfish,
for wanting the eyes of everyone i met
or have yet to meet
to be only on me.

i'm selfish,
i don't want others to rise
because i know it will mark my fall.

i'm selfish,
i know.

but aren't we all?
when i see people with potential, i deflate.
i don't want to lose the reign i have yet to make true.

I won’t notice the lies.
But I don’t even know the truth.
Between your so violent behavior.
That you forgot who you are.


I won’t ask you to change.
Only you can ask yourself and do it.
But you’ll might lose me before it ends.
Or I’ll might lose you forever.


Show me the love you gave me at first.
Your soft and enjoyable side.
With laughs everyday and smiles.
I thought that this would never change.


I wanted you to notice the harm you’ve done to me.
I wanted you to remember our first love.
This isn’t love anymore, it’ll never be like that again.
You showed me everything about you.


The lovable side, and soft side. I loved you.
The playful side, and wild side. I liked you.
The cold side, and mean side. I stayed.
The violent side, and evil side. I was only there.


You pretended, to love me and not to hurt me.
I pretended, to care.
All those personalities of you.
Were sides of you that never existed.

As long as he was
encased in cold,
getting shorter all the time.
But,
in spite of the horribly havocking eyes of study
he grows
and burrows;
the best worm in the universe.

he really is mean, you know
really, truly mean
and i know
yes, i know
so why do you keep sleeping in his bed?
it makes no difference
and you, you know this
you are not a person
you are hardly a body
he is so mean
and you fall asleep crying
(you've been crying every day)
but i, i love him, you know
and yet tell me this -
is this love you harbor
worth all of this ache?
this ache you can't escape
you know how to though
but you wait
you wait and wait
purely in vain
but i love him
and he loves me
but he is so, so mean

Be careful
Some times it's hard to tell salt from sugar,
I have found,
People are like that too.

You're
    fat
      ugly
         stupid
             worthless

Suicide?
I think not.
*******
Who can blame someone for believing what they are told their whole life?
