Rings

Slim metal bands Meant to represent A bond Most unbreakable Yet in the end Does it mean anything Other than a precious metal Wrapped around an aging finger A feeble promise That will fade Leading to a heart ache And suffering For which the grief Sinks in And takes the place Of a heart That once loved

Missing

There has been an ache in my heart that nothing can fill A hole in my chest That lets my emotions spill over All since the day she died I've struggled to cope To seek refuge From tidal waves of overbearing grief I still keep her funeral dress Knowing its stained from my tears My heart beats a broken rhythm Like injured soldiers marching Its a continuous loop Of numbness And an electrifying shock That this is it She's really gone

Toy Elephants

The flames consume my empty heart Burning it to ash Crumbling outdated ruins And letting smoke pass The cold chains rest in my hands now I’m taking my power back Now I take rein Over shuddering flames The lick up my skin Yet I won’t flinch As the burns won’t hurt me Not this time Fire spews from heavy tongues Throwing itself into darkened skies This time it’s my destruction Pulling itself forth From my eyes Mixes of oils And fuel Do my bidding As I learn to dance with my demons Instead of running I will heal I whisper To the flicker in my palms It’s finally going to be alright

Dreams Again

I wake up Clutching nothing Chest tight Eyes wet I’m here In my bed Months gone by You’re still gone And I miss you An aching pain Throbbing through Swollen veins Hidden in view I dream of you still I know not why Of you coming back Into my life My love My soul The one to whom I’d be the wife Your voice echoes Into the void How empty must I be Without the need of you filling me I still see you Now with her Just end me Now While I still feel the pain

Wanted

7PM dash lights on sunset milky purples fading to view dappled watercolor flicks spread across evening sky the sun going to rest wind rushing through cracked windows smooth evening air so intoxicating drunk off the feeling music bouncing off the walls of empty head space filling the body with peace

Flare Up

the girl on fire heart of smoke twisting and writhing this time she won’t choke clawing away her outer shell telling you all to burn in hell ripping away what’s no longer needed bleeding and spitting strains of words you don’t understand leave me alone crying out into the dark im coming for you with my new pretty teeth and savage desires bow down to her the wisp the girl you never really knew
