Salty Secret
Posted on April 15, 2019 4 Comments
Where were the tears that day? Our loss must have voided my heart. Each time I taunted with emotion, my soul would squeeze even tighter. Then, past a wet wind’s gale. I saw your empty face. It was the key that finally broke me. So…I ran to the salty sea. Broke free from this ransom. […]
For That Moment

I sat one day. Alone, on a palette chair. Sit in spatters and their quiet stories. Did watch as pebbles danced in entertain. For granted, I was easily lead. So naive that tomorrow won’t go away. It was a peace that drunk me. There, emotion could never touch. Strange was any voice of hurt. All […]

You broke my heart once more. But, it’s OK. At least it felt something.
Maybe Tomorrow…

Late at night, when it’s just me and the moon. We both pray you’ll return with the sun.
Tainted Blood

A lonely peer, a doorway. Most still lay asleep. Strangers, cloaked as lovers. Lineup…for the rabbit hole. Their smiles, fake, and you know it. Will, did not lead them here. All they want is to shower in that devil’s medicine. Melt and run away. How can you hold their hand? Allow their laughter, their play, […]
Past Eight

Whistles silent, brews stress pinched to the nape. TV flickers black and white but can’t turn it off. Frozen mittens dry from the blessed heat, brings sweat with no one to blame. Mumbles first, like there’s someone to fight back. Then, the knee goes, not worry, just wonder. Past eight… …old lady’s not home.
That Song

I remember that song. Every note just for me. Sweet melody, aimed straight toward my heart. Our souls in tandem with the music. I’d bathe in the cast of your light. You with that grin. I’m there sometimes, when I go back, for a listen…just for me.
Ashback Friday # 7 – It Came From Outerspace

Ah, to be young again. I was in a googling wormhole a few nights ago and came across the movie poster you see above. As soon as this image popped up in my web search, I instantly smiled in recollection. I was a young boy, thirteen I think, some community group was putting off a […]
Dark Fantasy

Oh, beautiful moon, why do you tease me? With fantasy, I know is not real. Darkness always has another plan for me, where light can never celebrate. I dare not chase away the loneliness, for the night will expose my weakness. I have no prayer to use, don’t lie and tell me there’s fate. Go…just […]
Whispers From You
Posted on February 2, 2019 7 Comments
A lull from the hillside early morn, like a whisper from you. I stood in the chill… …with a tear reminder, of what I’ve lost. Sweep me up, walk with me through the valley, take me to the mountain tops. I am brisk, I am alive…for now. Whisper some more to me, until the mutters […]
