Love!
Love!
I know you can hear me
I know you can see me
Hell I even know you can feel me.

So your mission is accomplished right?
You've led me to lose my sanity,
He told me he loved me,
You led me into believing it,
You told me to follow my heart,
Well it led me to the monster that haunts me every night.

The image of his face terrifies me
His voice lifts the hairs on my body
His odour suffocates me
In his presence I don't breathe
In fear of suffocating to death.

He didn't just break my heart
He killed it,
It's dead now!
He chose not to **** me
So he broke my heart instead, so I live with the excruciating pain every passing day.
He cursed me with an eternity of torture.

•••
*and no matter what I do,
no matter how it hurts,
I can't take back the love I have given you
I just can't..

THE POETRY SERIES

It is the poetry of little things that causes the earth to shred and shudder
The poetry of little things that ignites the greatest moments of bliss.
A smile from a little child,
A chuckle from a stranger.
The warmth of a knitted family
The entwining of old friends
The humming from the sea shores
The journey of the moonlight
The waves, the traveling waves
The Sea, the meandering sea
The Earth, the boundless earth
And the sweet song that nature sings.
These little things, garnered with the greatest love
Observed in silence
It is this poetry,
The poetry of little things that elicit the greatest happiness

I have no excuse
because that's the thing
I had my goodbye

I was just too young and naive to understand
you were leaving me

now I want you
desperately

I can't call out your name
you don't exist anymore
and I can't search the earth for your stories
they'll never be told again

everyone is forgetting you
year by year

I don't remember you
but I never want to forget you
