The thing that's annoyingly tragic is,
This cactus has plenty of adjectives,
So why can't I rhyme,
Like I do all the time,
And find myself right where the magic is?
I can't figure out a limerick,
About a cactus and its ******
******* it, it's stumped me,
I've been trying for centuries-
Or has it just been a few minutes?

my friend,
if you were afraid
of dying alone
of having lived
without purpose
of staying
of leaving
without anyone
to recall your name,
rest easy, rest easy,
rest easy.
we will remember you,
i will remember you.

in another life
we are in your heart
and you are whole
and you are home
and you recognize
the love everyone has for you
and you don't feel alone
and you do not break
where you stand
in another life,
you would not be the person
you thought you became
and the sound
of the names of your failures
does not bring you
to your knees.
they do not wound you
or make you bleed
they do not destroy
what we held so dearly.
in another life
you choose to stay
and
you do not disappear.

Hannah doesn't dream,
That's what I've heard at least
She lies in a small cold bed
Where sugar plums aren't dancing,
Closing her eyes behind her head
She sleeps until the morning fills
The room with anything but black
Standing up, another day, just trapped.
Hannah doesn't dream,
Not a sheep, a blink, or wink.
But last night she made a song
To the drips of the bathroom sink.
She told me of a real place,
Unlike the dancing going through my skull
It sounds like home, only more magical.
Hannah doesn't dream,
She sees the beauty in the awake,
The sky, the sun, the leaves,
The whisper as the wind cuts through the trees.
Hannah doesn't dream,
She doesn't need to it seems

in a damp room
with red puddles.
she found what she wanted.
a big smile that never
appeared on her face.
happy wrinkles near her lips
and her round eyes are shrinking due to happiness.
she saw that all
with something bright
in front of her,
as her eyes slowly closed.

Why have they *** have they---
They are yet to be---
Songstresses from the seas
where no man’s eye can see
She is ape-like & lethargic---
Snoring & snoozing
Where no man sees the models change---
Their eyes plucked out as she bathes
The mighty chav douches her **** regularly
She is my Hannah in her grave in Portugal
of all places in the wide open world
for her red mouth to open---
Yes, I want to be near her gilded sunlight---
Someone lying beneath her Jeep---
Hannah off in the woods
w/ a local boy or preferably girl---
Meaghan gone to seed
& sour ***** taste like Chinese dumplings in her mouth---
She sings the sweetest song at sunrise
Abandoned on the road

A name is but a label that has branded us for life
Hannah
A name such as my own, Biblical in nature
Meaning so much more to me than “The grace of god”
Hannah
With a heart for spoken word
And a mouth more than capable
Hannah
Who knows the great pleasure of the perfect phrase
And always has something to say
Hannah
I’ve got a way with words,
And I’m stronger than most
Hannah
A heavy heart,
And gentle hands
Hannah
With uncle lost to a smoking gun,
At the scene of a suicide
Hannah
A snapping turtle beneath my skin
Timid but fierce
Hannah
With intellect in my veins
And curiosity all the same
Hannah
Like a pine cone
Those rough and pointy edges remind me of my own
Hannah
Made from good intentions
And full of pride
Hannah
Backwards I am the same,
For I have only one face.
Hannah
My two-toned mind
Damaged, but alive
Hannah
My bipolar-stained brain
Depression? or mania?
Hannah
Because what good is “the grace of god”
if he only chooses to pit you against yourself
Hannah
For I am my only rival
Or Peninnah I should say
Hannah
For while god's word may be gracious
It is my name not his

Take my breath
I need it not
Take my life
It serves me not
Take my soul
It is no more
Take my whole
I'm nothing in this world
Take my existence
It was a mistake
Take my heart
It broke much more
Take my smile
It is fake
Take my body
Drag it to the lake
Take my bones
Bury them under
Bring me roses
I always will suffer

What do I write about?
Should I still write about you?
Should I write about my heartache?
And the pain you put me through?
Give me something to write about?
Should I write about our history?
about the arguments between us?
The glory you felt above me?
I need something to write about
Should I speak of your manipulative ways?
The way you would blame I
Your mistakes became mine
it made it all a lie

i keep my poems short as to not bore you
the fear of the judgement pouring from you
i keep my lines short so you can rush through
the fear of the judgement pouring from you
i keep my words small as my thoughts are too
the fear of the judgement pouring from you
i keep my mouth shut, these words are true
the fear of the judgement pouring from you

I sing this song to remind you of me
to remind you of who we used to be
I sing this song to remember your blue eyes
to remember how the same blue cascades the skies
I sing this song to remind you of fall
to remind you of us floating above all
I sing this song to remember your lips
to remember the way you would kiss
I sing this song to remind you of me
to remind you of who we used to be

Pictures of us surround me
Memories of us haunt me
Your name stuck between my lips
I choke on it
Your scent lingers on my pillow
i bathe in it
Your blue eyes linger in my mind
I need it
I need you
I want you
I miss you
Please come back
please come home
I'm sorry
It;s all my fault
I'm so sorry

If I could go back in time
I'd go back to September 4th, 2017
If I could go back in time
I'd stop you from leaving
If I could go back in time
I'd set my mind straight
If I could go back in time
I'd make there be no meaning to that date
If I could go back in time
I'd protect you from my mistakes
If I could go back in time
We'd still be together till this day;

It's 2:22 in the morning.
I am sitting here thinking.
I am thinking of you.
Our mushy little texts we would send.
Our kisses we'd share on my front porch.
I am sitting here remembering everything we had been through.
That night our family argued.
I thought I'd never see you again.
That day I snuck you into my house.
That was our last day.
I cherish it, I cherish you.
I will never forget the memories.
I will never forget you.

He loves me
I make him happy
and he makes me happy
I love him
he loves me
we are together
and always will be

One day I gave up.
Gave
Up
Nothing more nothing less.
I was done
Done with the world.
Done with life.
All hope in people gone.
Only one thing left.
Run the tub.
Climb in.
Regret what happened.
Take the Razors
Slice
Slice
Slice
Blood is running down my arms.
The water is turning pink.
A tub of blood.
Why?
Why?
Why?
Goodbye...

and an angel in my heart
they're both telling me to act on my feelings for you
but i'm too scared of rejection

I am losing my best friend.
I am being ignored.
"There is nothing that can come between us, we're sisters for life."
There was no blood oath, there was no written promises
Just words
Weightless feathers floating through the air
I am trying to figure out the problem and it seems I cannot.
You've been speaking to me with your salon client voice and it cuts deeper than you know.
If I have lost you know that I love you and I never wanted our sisterhood to end.
