When love turns hate
It's always sad
To somebody I would once die for
I now don't even speak to
So you wonder why I'm scared,
When you say you won't leave me-
Because everyone who said they wouldn't
Did.

Ive always listened to what you've said.
Not just the details.
But everything in bled.

You told me loving lies.
Left my true heart behind.
The thoughts piled up.
Words tangled in blue.

I hope you remember.
The laughter we shared.
The tickling games.
How i always whine.

Its time i take my rest.
Darling,
Life is cruel.
The tricks and it's lies.

I gave the best i could.
Though I cry and question why.
I have to leave.

Now.
She have your last name.
I hope she receives all that she deserves.
I know that goodbye is the beginning of
Uncertainties that the future might bring.
But darling, this is my goodbye.
It ain't so much I don't like you
I once had feelings for you
I know you felt the same way
So why are we at a stand still
At a crossroads in life?
We had our fill
Now it's about ******* time
That we go our own way

It has been days
Since we've said two words to each other
We're not made of stone
Our feelings have changed
Now it's time to go our separate ways
And go down this road alone

I'm not entirely sure what it is about looking at you that makes me feel like churches collapsing , my entire life is sore and I can't barely breathe because everytime I open my mouth apologies cramp mdown my throat and to be honest never have I ever been so tired of love because it just reminds me of rows of suits on bent knees and a little too lates
maybe one day I'll be able to laugh without the fear of cockroaches marching into my mouth and, well and...........
and.......
unfinished ,

Poetry was born out of artless desperation
Even though I've gone down that road a few times
I like to think I’m not there yet-
Where light only comes through a forgotten window
Where nobody can ever hear my screams
Where I can’t pretend
Now and then I catch these sounds
A dull clatter of banal days and drowsy storms
I can wash my head clear of all the change
And break a rule or two, deceive the pain
Lapsing back is pitiful but I laugh off the warning on the pack
The truth is so much simpler than the way it manifests
Such a beautiful waste of time
If only my version of events could hold out for a while
You’d notice how quiet the leaves were
For people like me and you
How happily I could just drown in a moment’s cacophony
But you were just going through usual motions
Being a catchall for your vagaries tore away my being
And you abandoned every shredded figment of my soul
You suddenly break into my poetry which failed to be about me again
How I wish I could draw simpler pictures in my head
Have sillier dreams and slap on a sickly smile for all time
Never gaze into people again, just the vague tendencies of passers-by.

The thought... idea... notion.
That you will leave me someday,
leaves me hollow as a log,
with maggots eating my heart, like your body.
Knowing what we have,
will once be what we had,
lost in the fog of our memories,
with no road back.
That day will come...
Possibly quicker than I think.
Yet until that day comes,
I dare not blink.

Life's amazingly beautiful, how it brings change like the spring. The bees buzz and the birds sing.Only to be Swept away by winters cold unforgiving winds. Endure for this too soon ends,  and is left in the past. Bringing yet another beautiful spring, but you'll not soon forget the last.
We walk together hand in hand.

We sink into love like a grain of sand.

Will you fall with me?

Will you stay with me for eternity?

You hesitate to answer.

Are you willing to let me fall forever?

I see the fear in your eyes.

You let go of my hand and my life

As I fall through these endless remains

I remember us without this pain.

A tragic step that appeared to keep going

But we took the step without ever knowing.

-Brandon Stephenson
View of love as it's lost.
~ Christi Michaels~December 2014~

The Evening Sky
Opens to a Canopy of Stars Above
A warm yet cooling breeze
Swirls a gentle Push
Against my Legs
I am waiting once again
To have you acknowledge
My words

This Moment will be much Easier
If I stay Quite
Just Listen
Bite my Tongue n'
Swallow my Thoughts
When you Speak
Knowing it best to Withhold
My Reactions
My Opinions

I have become Numb now to it All
Apprehension fills my throat
When I am moved to Speak.

So much easier to look
To the Stars and Moon
for a Comfortable
Sharing of thoughts

Even though you are not with me
my hands cannot reach you
your ears do not hear my cries
of missing

Know that
I cannot give in to loving
I will do anything to defeat
what keeps us in separation
