"knucles" poems
his eyes were fixed upon nothing,
his breath caught in his chest.
a constricting weight,
descended upon his heart.
no longer,
was he her hero.
no longer,
would he hold her,
listen to her sleep.
he bit his lip,
to keep it for trembling,
but alas,
a tear slipped from his lashes,
and got lost in his stubble.
he meant to draw a breath,
to speak his pain,
but a sob wracked his throat.
he gripped the table edge,
his knucles straining with the force.
he steeled himself,
he needed to say something.
'you will never find another love like mine'
he choked.
he watched her berry lips part in response
'thank goodness'.

Knucles cracking hard
Skin split bruised, enemy wall
Frustration released.

Anger clutching at my mind
Nails scraping through layers of flesh
Fingers balled into fists
Nose ******
Lip split
Bruised knucles
Black eye
Anger gasps for release
Coiled fist
Shot out like a piston
Knucles in searing pain
****** faces
Broken bones
ANGER

I used to think of you
how you light up the room
every step of the way you bloom
You are terrifying when you crack your knucles
but are the prettiest and sweetest when you chuckle
but as time passed by
who wouldve knew
that we would be together that night
love is tested
love is questioned
and with that became a result of depression
you told me you loved me
but we grew apart
i felt like my heart was pierced with a dart
I felt a sudden burn higher than degree
now that we are apart
I hope you smile
smile with a big smile
go on without me
because i guarantee
you are worth more than what i can give
baby, lovers apart but lovers at heart
i hope you have a brand new start
