her moist, ruby lips
yielded the sweetest kisses.  
the taste still lingers

Pointing out
the truth.
Preaching
the future.

It's all for naught.
As words spoken
remain unheard.

Ignored you start showing.
Giving all you have.

But again
all is for naught.
As results
remain unseen.

So you keep toiling
silently hidden
unknown unseen
til the end.

eerie calm around
dark clouds on the horizon
perfect storm coming

coffee, fruit and toast
to feed the body’s spirit.
one kiss for the heart.

forever pledged love
hollowed out by dailiness
just snake skin remains

i'm done listening.
you are but a distant voice
drowned out by new hope

a heart on the floor
blood splattered across the walls
ripped apart by words

painful memories
encased in a troubled heart
waiting for rescue

Bury me
under a tree.

One with
green leaves
and pink
round blossoms.

One that grows
sweet red fruits
that feed
hungry mouths.

One that sparkles
in golden colors
until the first
winter arrives.

One which
rests in peace
covered by snow
until spring.

Bury me
under a tree
so I can live again.
