Is life just a test
does something better await
is love transient
unnamed May 21
brazenly they march
change and equality ******
in white sheets and hoods.
unnamed May 11
a true confidante
a rag doll with button eyes
all of my secrets
left in her one fingered hands
helping to shape my psyche.
unnamed May 25
why does the rain fall
dropped down when my mood was up
left me up in arms.
unnamed May 20
walking in the rain
Raindrops fill me with anguish
they're tainted with grief.
unnamed May 16
rainstorms passing through
natures in the kitchen now
cooking up rainbows
unnamed May 26
my world goes silent
picking up a book to read
new world opens up.
unnamed May 21
I'm rocking glasses
pride had put then off before
arms now long enough
unnamed Jun 4
my memory dreamed
must protect it from sunlight
reality stings.
unnamed May 23
love's words unspoken
you ran to another's arms
memories then speak
unnamed Jun 4
in love and in hate
matters of the heart up close
fondness out of reach.
unnamed Jun 11
I must remember
that forget goes with forgive
a freudian slip.
unnamed May 31
calendar pages
I have kept them all this time
all of our dates marked
unnamed May 16
remember when
Your love is given in vain
no one knows your name.
unnamed May 13
requieted love
a fireplace in the winter
fresh fruit off the vine.
unnamed May 16
you have honored me
held me up in high esteem
by truly stepping up
unnamed May 31
rain hits my rooftop
dreams of you between the drops
how the tune was ours.
unnamed May 7
Towing my Big Wheel
My Lite Brite remains in hock
My shadow outlined
on the *****, hot sidewalk
In some multi colored chalk
unnamed May 28
kings and queens took strolls
in their gardens made of stone
court jester in tow.
unnamed May 28
politeness be ******
people rudely cut you off
while you're mid sentence.
unnamed Jun 5
sadness is lonely
it longs for some company
colors, black and white
unnamed May 19
where did you go to
you left me as the wren sang
as the music died.
unnamed May 19
staring at my phone
waiting for the next message
ding! my brain is fed.
unnamed May 14
let sleeping dogs lie
I've tried to heed that warning
they always wake up!
unnamed May 28
I don't believe you
behind me you played around
my back bears the scars.
unnamed May 10
scars are my tattoos
painful words on my body
they are my story
unnamed Jun 10
school was hard for me
too afraid to raise my hand;
not like I'd be seen
unnamed Jun 3
when I was in school
wasn't popular at all
yearbooks went unsigned.
unnamed May 31
school days can be cruel
teams are picked, your name left out
never teacher's pet.
unnamed Jun 7
dress out gym lockers
popular kids teacher's pet
money grades papers
unnamed May 25
seashore soothing
bright beaches with bouncy *****
singing serenades
unnamed May 28
self esteem is gold
like a family heirloom
pricing it is hard
unnamed May 19
I'm a lonely sock
separated from my wife
dryer split us up!
unnamed May 20
The mountain looms large
One we must climb together;
you withdraw your hand
unnamed Jun 12
how's it possible
the many years slipped past me
casting no shadows
unnamed Jun 12
You left me with shame
with your broken promises
trust torn asunder.
unnamed Jun 12
you stormed in my life
I've built up protective walls
shelter from the rain.
unnamed May 18
saw a shooting star
it left me wondering then
where did my wish go?
unnamed May 23
The moon the emcee
as the novas entertain
in front of the stars
unnamed May 23
shyness locks my lips
but my thoughts do the walking
writing, the talking.
unnamed Jun 10
I am shy and quiet
writing is my speaking voice
it gives me my say.
unnamed May 20
bicycle tires flat
pant leg is caught in the chain
mom yells loud, "SUPPER".
unnamed May 23
Physicalities
don't matter in the long run
they're nice for a while.
unnamed May 18
I went skydiving
the ground cut into patterns
like a giant quilt.
unnamed May 19
let sleeping dogs lie
I've tried to heed that warning
they always wake up.
unnamed May 28
pills taken in haste
not really wanting to die
just some peaceful sleep
unnamed May 19
I smoked something strange
it lit up the jokes in me
rope I think its called
unnamed May 25
you're wearing a smirk
funny how well it fits you
wrapped up in yourself.
unnamed May 25
I slink into the crowd
mind in distress, heart racing
anxiety wounds
everybody sees me
please stop looking down on me
unnamed May 24
social media
texting, X and facebook too
people skills are dull.
