I like to speak in riddles when you're around.
I like to bring you up just to pull you down.
I am afraid to commit to someone at the current moment.
But I'm even more afraid of letting this guy in when we just met.

I found love in the back of a pick up truck in a small country town.
He picked me up, tore my dress off, and laid me down.
He spoke in a pretty country accent and told me I was the best he ever seen.
I remember thinking learn to speak properly- but that would have been mean.

You left me running from town to town and bed to bed.
I can't let go of the awful things you once said.
I try to race time by running as far away as I can.
But all this running is leaving me cold and without a back up plan.

Found alone, unappreciated.
Each finger trailing my bones, gazing intensely at me.
These judgemental stares surpass those glares encountered in life.
Found buries beside an untrimmed hedge, a locked door.
Never welcome, never cared for.
The foreign feel of these gloved hands.
This alien touch ******* me from all that I had left.
Nothing is left inmy possession.
Just looked at, not understood.
Each lain brick accounted for, not a thing out of place.
All these indentations eft by footprints mark what should have been my final resting place.
I wrote this poem using a skeleton display in a museum as a stimulus #mshed

A place like this
Difficult place
Darkling the days and dulling nights
I don't wanna stay here
anymore
A person like you
Complicate to deal
Darkling the heart and dulling mind
I don't wanna stay here
anymore
A conversation like this
Boring routine
Darkling the time and dulling words
I don't wanna stay here
anymore
Let me go...
Let me go to the place
where days are shiner and nights shimmer
Let me go to the person
whose heart is lighten and mind brighter
Let me go to the conversation
where time is rayon and words sheen
I don't wanna stay here
anymore
