BurdenMy pain is someone else’s joyBurden4 years ago in Free Verse More Like This
My soul is another person’s toy
My love is a cancerous disease
As you can tell, my life is not of ease
I have so much love to share
But no one will dare
To even get to know me first
They instead assume the worst
Of me, my soul and my never-dying love
Soon off the edge, myself I will shove
I am waiting for the end to unfurl
Because I am a burden on the entire world

A chasm
I look down
At the beautiful
Colorful world
I'm afraid
I want to step over
Be engulfed by
That feeling
But it feels so large
Too much
I turn away
Today
But one day
I will fall over
The edge

He just doesn't seem to understand
She signs online
Of course he's there
She knows that she shouldn't
But she really cares
She sends him a hello
Knowing he's there hurts the worst
He makes her believe it all again
The lies the bitter taste of "love"
Her friends are worried about her
How she knows what he's doing
Yet she puts herself through it everyday
She knows that he doesn't love her
He knows that she knows
They live this is all a lie
Once more she asks herself why
Why does she make herself think that he does
Why does he tell her all these lies
Why can't she just tell him that she's

RememberingToday, I looked out of the window and saw a glimpse of my past. Nothing major, mind, but it was there nonetheless. I was standing all alone with a buggy not much smaller than I was and a doll. I can't remember the dolls name but I know that I carried her with me everywhere. Protection, I guess. While I was standing there I saw a lot of people passing me by in the street. People were watching me as they walked on by. I was watching them too. For the most part, I stood there with my little finger of my right hand in my mouth. I was worried. I was right to be worried because I didn't know if she was coming back. She'd just left me there in the sRemembering2 years ago in Introductions & Chapters More Like This

But you do not see.
You listen to me
But you do not hear.
If this is the case
What good are you to me?
You know me
But you do not understand.
You are near me
But you are not with me.
If this is the case
What good are you to me?
If you cannot see
Why I behave the way I do.
Then what good are you to me
And what am I to you?
These are my questions
But what are your answers?
Are you willing to see me?
Do you want to hear?
Can you understand me?
Could you really be with me?
Death At The DoorDeath is knocking at his door,Death At The Door3 years ago in Free Verse More Like This
Has come to take him away.
Doesn't care if he's rich or poor,
Just wants to take him away.
Death is banging on the wall,
Has come to steal him from us.
Doesn't hear our desperate call,
Just wants to take him from us.
Death is dragging him from his bed,
Taking him to another world.
Doesn't listen to what we've said,
Just wants him in some other world.
But as some great person one day said,
It isn't all that bad.
As long as he's in hearts and head,
It won't be all that bad.

The Inkeeper's Daughter... She rode hard, the horse beneath her stretching its legs out to carry it across the Scottish moors. She gasped as the rain bit into her skin, cutting as sharply as shards of glass into her exposed face and arms. Her dress was beyond salvaging. But what did she care for that? The violin was safely wrapped with her scant clothing and stowed in her saddle bag, hopefully keeping dry from this torrential rain. Just one more hour, Rhiannon thought wryly, let him wait one more hour and he will have the cursed violin.The Inkeeper's Daughter...6 years ago in General More Like This

Dungeon Crawl"Are you absolutely certain it's safe down there?" Maria asked dubiously. She and her elf-lover Tez were standing small open hole at the top of a large earthen mound, once circular in shape, but now rather bumpy from the several large oak trees that had taken root since the mound had formed.Dungeon Crawl8 years ago in Fantasy More Like This
"Nothing is for certain," Tez answered, then smiled reassuringly. "However, I can tell you that I'm quite familiar with the architecture of the facility below."
He tossed the rope down the earthen shaft at the top of the mound, once shielded by accumulated leaves and branches, but recently cleared sometime in the recent past. The rope was a good fift

FragmentsWe are all running scared, searching for our purpose… for our destiny. Sometimes we just forget to stop and take in the moment… really breathe it in, let it sink in. We’re all looking for something. Many times we don’t know what it is and really never figure it out until it is too late. Sometimes we are lucky enough to find that thing we are looking for and realize a good thing when we see it. Sometimes what we’re looking for we’ve had all along. Sometimes we let it slip through our fingers. Whatever it is, we are all looking, striving, longing for that “something” that will come along and chFragments4 years ago in Short Stories More Like This

You handed me the tool to succeed
Like a pathetic wounded dog
You laid your heart at my feet.
I never meant to take it this far
The chase, the thrill
The hunt of it all
Was what I craved most of all.
But somewhere along the line
In the process of crushing your dreams
And stomping upon your heart, your trust
I lost mine as well.
Now you've decided you've had enough abuse
And truly I can't find the will to blame you
This time tis I on my knees
This time tis my lips that plead.
It seems I've passed the mantle
Laid the torch in your palms
For you look at me so carelessly
While walking away with my all.

Fragile, tentative threads wove themselves to
Cling tenaciously to my immature heart.
You crept inside somehow,
It was so sweet, so innocent,
Of me you were so proud.
Our parents called it puppy love,
Said it'd never last,
They called us foolish
Tried to separate us.
They under estimated us,
Our stubbornness,
Our dedication
Our love.
But we weren't old enough
And the world we found was just too tough.
At eighteen we couldn't handle the test of love.
Prepared to cave, and admit defeat
A surprised knocked us to our knees.
A baby was on the way,
We were so happy,
Scared and uns

Taunt me with their devious musings.
Crippled with thoughts of
Idealistic dreams based in cultural imaginings.
Cicadas pillage hopes akin to fields of wheat
Left in the dark, stale love I swallow.
Asphyxiating on fumes of illusion
Excruciating pain breeds hate filled rage.
Paramount to flesh striped by acid craze
Being ate alive, Inner demons rise.
One foot in, the other gone
Too late to sing my final song.
Gobbled up, pieces spit out to grow
My blood, anger and betrayal seeping
Into the ground feeding everything.
Ingest my hatred, it fouls the very air breathed.

Electroshock therapy to blackened vice stains.
Jump start my dead heart, akin to a battery in a car.
Alive, upright, broken and on my way to the bar.
Need a six pack consultation, whiskey communication.
My life's water, fuels this corpse, Mary Reilly amputation.
Strained vision, peering through bloodshot eyes
Sleep deprivation combined with opiate induced coma
Like a dark harbinger, warning me of the ailment to come
I regurgitate all the night’s endeavors onto a silver platter
Presenting it to any audience of penguin suits and nylon leggings

Baby, I'd be neck deep in it, If I knew what love is.
Was it really necessary? I'd have fallen on my own.
I didn't need your assistance to make me a fool.
What hurts more is I thought, friends we were
I guess I deluded myself into what you wanted me to think.
I don't blame you, truly as much as I want too, I don't hate you.

Though I won't pretend it'll be easy to do.

And you’ll find that when the leaves change colour, he won’t remember your name
That at the first whisper of cold air he’s moved on to the girl he swore he’d never liked
When the frost touches the tips of the grass he’ll be in the past,
And you’ll be waiting in the background as he dances with a girl you knew you’d never liked
As fleeting as a glimmer of sun on a dark day, you were there and now you’re not
So fade away, fade away

Silent, with only the notes he wrote to you to re
