The Only Thing New Is You

Are you waiting for me?Waiting for me to step aside,To bow out gracefully,All for you to have what’s mine. I’ve watched you slinking around,Sneaking in behind the scenes,Planting seeds and little blooms,Hoping she will tend them. She has a gentle touch,It...

The Whipping Post

Here I stand bound to you,Chained by history,Restrained by love.  Your words strike me,Ripping through my flesh,Marking me with your pain.  I alone take it,Welcoming your rage,Encouraging the hurt,All for your comfort.  She is rebellious and mocking,Backi...

And I Left

I couldn't bring myself to ask.

The bar was too noisy and people stood shoulder to shoulder. They were all vying for a place at the bar. Music filled the air and it mingled with the laughter and drunken ramblings of its patrons.  I first spotted him as he entered the bar. His black hair...

I'm Sorry

I’m sorry for the things I said,And for the things I couldn’t say,The things I didn’t tell you,Despite knowing that I should. I’m sorry for saying too much,I told you more than you wanted to know,Things you didn’t need to hear,I pushed on through knowing...

Missing

Have you ever just missed someone? Not the, oh I should call them kind of missing. I mean the kind where you are sitting right next to each other. You watch them and yearn for their hands, their kisses, and their attention. Where you wake up to a good mor...

Who Are You?

Who are you when the white-hot reality of the day shines down?When there is nowhere left to hide and I see who you are.How clever you are at hiding the truth.What is left of us now that I see you? Who are you when the shadows of deceit are stripped bare?W...

Toxicity

You are toxic,Stepping in and out of my life,Treating me as your own personal retreat. All consuming,Taking your fill until there is nothing left,Nothing left but an empty shell,Leaving me to heal,Leaving me to save the damage that you cause. How do you f...

Love And War

There is a battle raging inside you,It’s beating you down,Until you forget which side you’re on,You punish me with your internal war. The war,The constant tug-of-war,Causing endless battles,All between yourself,And I’m caught in the middle. The Middle,Tea...

Silence

Your silence is so loud, It screams into the darkness, Flowing through my brain, Making me feel insane.   The pounding sound, Threatening to tear me down, Running through my heart, Ripping me apart.   Silence is a powerful thing, Louder than spoken words,...

You Are Gone

Whispered kisses on my cheek.A grin plays on my lips; so coy and so meek.My muscles are sore.In the heat of passion, I begged for more.I stretch my body giving you a show.You aren’t really there, but how could I know?The touching, the kissing, making love...

Toxic Pull

Lucy learns the love you want, is not necessarily the one you need.

The rhythmic, pounding bass and the horns of the Imperial March made her sit up, frantically searching for the phone in the dark. Her hand brushed against something cold, and then she heard the crashing sound of the water glass falling to the floor.“Shit,...

Are You Ready To Dance?

Are you ready to dance? Allow me to help you up,Your steps will be unsteady,Do not fret or worry,I’ll let go when you are ready. Are you ready to perform? The lights are bright,Shining in my eyes,I look to him for support,As he’s helping me to rise. Are y...
