stranger
CharlesRudd Mar 2019
its a strange thing
strangers
in a flash
they can be their
in a flash
they can be gone
     on nights like this
that feel dark and alone
     on nights like this
i picture the stranger
the stranger it feels i have always known
YOU,
but of all the strangers i have ever known
YOU,
can’t be their
YOU,
will always be gone,

Silence
CharlesRudd Mar 2019
In the dark surrounded by silence
Deafening
Deafening
Deafening silence
But it’s sweet
It’s sweet like rain
For the first time
For the first time in so long
I can’t hear the monsters complain

Don’t go away
As the light starts to brake
I hear myself say
As the the monsters are now awake
The silence all but a faded memory
But I smile
for I know
you
are my enemy

Old friends
CharlesRudd Apr 2019
Hello old friend
Haven't heard from you in a while
Though i have tried
You always seem to find your way

I greet you with op arms
As we've always known each other
Years hasn't it been
You give me a smirk

Its been a while
You greet me
"Has it really"
I try to respond jokingly

You give me a wink
I lean back

"How long are you staying"
I ask nervously
Only as long as you'd let me
You say with confidence

My thoughts raced
And suddenly
Memories of her all around me
You get up
You Greet me

As you go
I could see the disappointment
You frown
I smile

"Until next time"
I say with confidence
Hoping
She ceeps you away

I love u
CharlesRudd Apr 2019
The three hardest words
How thay linger in my thoughts
I cant wait
To hold you
Pull you closer
Uttering thos three
Small
Dangerous
Words

I love u

Stuck on thoughts of you.
CharlesRudd Mar 2019
You are stuck in my thoughts

As the clouds turn gray
And the day's feel long
I find myself missing you
Like a feeling that didn't yet belong.

Behind every noise
A eco of your laughter
Like a sound that didn't yet belong.

Behind every sight
A glimpse of your beauty
Like a vision that didn't yet belong.

As the cloud's turn gray
And the days feel long
I find myself thinking of you
Falling for you
Like a dream,
I want you to belong.

The rarest of Robin.
CharlesRudd Apr 2019
Such a fragile thing
A heart
who whould have thought
That You
A
Perfect
Stranger
Could put it back together
So easily

A drink a day
CharlesRudd Feb 2020
The morning lights fliker.
Down breaks.

Your gone.
Again.
Time after time.
Your gone.

I look for a note.
But nothing.

Your gone.
Again.
Time after time.
Your gone.

You leave me.
No note.

Your gone.
Again.
Time after time.
Your gone.

All the chaos of last night.
Mine to deal with.

Your gone.
Again.
Time after time.
Your gone.

But i will always love you.
My dear brandy wine.
