Like Swords And Knives.

Some use words as though they're knives,
They'll slice the air and ruin lives,
Cut the mood then fear arrives,
Move through your veins in swooping dives.

Some use words to stab your throat,
To make you hate what you then wrote,
To settle, an unwanted cost,
To do their worst, but not to dote.

Some use words as weaponry,
To push, to try, to laugh, to see,
As though they'll chain, you won't be free,
Using words as their decree.

Some use words with no regard,
To hit them big, and hit them hard,
To shove them like a glassy shard,
To laugh at what a life they've marred.

Words

Words flow like blood from a wounded heart on a cold, cloudless day. Words pour like wine from a paper cup in a vague, meaningless way.

Story Of Colors

My name is purple. But I am not. I like to paint the town red. And let my mother see red. I like to attend a black-tie event. And see my friends get green with envy.

Water Types

The gentle drip drip, Running down every drain. The heavy pound pound, Cascading, thick rain. The sad splash splash, Unwanted tears of disdain. The merry pitter patter, Someone's sentimental gain.

World Is A Tea Cup

#sundayrepost Morning!. Mourned your dreams, Dreaming in sins. Sincerely win, Winters icy dawn. Adorn your outfit, Outfox Queen or King. Kingdoms slaves, Slaved in minds. Minding you lose.

The Sound of Heartbreak

What's the sound of heartbreak. Is it quiet or is it loud. Does your percussionist vacate When no further love's allowed.
