Chopping Onions

I like to hurt myself like this sometimes.
Afflicted me,
like a
leper, gladly chopping onions,
blindfolded,
laughing, crazily
bleeding, unaware
blissfully goading Fate,
crying,
screaming,
trying,
to see, simultaneously,
why
two hearts
can't
beat
as one,
why, in a dark world,
you, I, someone,
anyone,
just can't find a light,
to switch,
on.
Look around, you said,
focus, you said.
Well, I did, I have,
I lived, I dreamed,
I loved in a deep,
deep voice,
rejoiced in life, me
rejoiced in love,
hallelujah,
hallelujah, I sung
but the tale of this little boy
ended before it begun.

Unwanted

Sometimes I feel so very small,. Tears fall, I don't know why,. The ground just wants to eat me whole,. The earth wants me to cry,. I feel like I'm not needed,. In this universal plan,.

Heavy Heart

Heavy heart, I left the room. It felt as though I knew my doom. Heavy heart, tears of pride. Do you know you're why I cried. Heavy heart, but it's set in stone. Nothing to be done. I'm all alone.

Heart beat

A tremor goes up through my heart . It's beating slows at long last . Its gentle pulse now matches my thoughts . Slow and steady . My breath is caught . Once again my pulse does raise .

Never Whole

Somedays it takes all my strength just to feel alive,. If I was pulled any thinner, I don't think I'd survive,. I am just the empty hollow in between your dreams,.

It's Written In The Leaves

I simply can't find the words to say,. Empty emotions a vast array,. Weeping tears to flush out the grief,. Wailing loud screams let out that anger a temporary relief,.

I'd Like To Say...

I'd like to say I love you, But it would be a lie, I'd like to say I'm happy, Instead inside I cry.

Why Bother?

Why bother, I know I won't win, You'll never stay Through thick and thin. You'll leave me Leave me high and dry, And you will laugh, Whilst I will cry.

To Break The Mask

Your face is river, ever flowing, changing upon every tide, A simple poison is not knowing, whether you should run and hide. But most time it's contained as so by fake, unjust serenity.
