Late night poems
-
Commitment
Your soot-tipped fingers.
-
My lantern, my lamp.
The crunching of the leaves filled me with grief.
-
Please accept me.
If I believe in the same thing why do you punish me so? Oh, please, oh, please tell me why.
-
I repeat, I repeat, I repeat.
I watch your rosy cheeks from the back pew.
-
Homemade wings.
"Be damned, self help!"
-
Fake lover's poem.
The tendrils of your lover spiral inside the pen, (Best read in a harsh whisper.)
-
I want to drown my heart.
I feel it in my chest, my rough hands.
-
This lonely ball.
My bare feet waltz over the cold tile.
-
"The End."
Her sea foam filled lungs gurgled.
-
I want to love what I write.
"Why haven't you written lately?"
-
Your influence
Relinquish my hollow head, let this soft body live again.
-
Being akin to human
What an original sin.
-
An anthology of me
Several of me but all of them are tainted by the same feeling
-
A heavy memory.
I will gauge you out.
-
Such little time to act.
Everyone must pay for who they are.
-
My angels.
I'm sure these saccharine beings are quite burnt around the edges.
-
If it wasn't for love,
Why was I striking matches in the first place? Why did I think it mattered?
-
Shakespearian
I am a tale everyone will forget.
-
Jazz band of sin.
And tambourine sobs are jingling through my throat.
-
A winter chill
This deep ache my body hides.
-
I'm not a lovin' fool
I'd rather you treat me unkindly.
-
The Devil Elixir.
I'm a monster rattlin' the bars of a cage.
-
I'm bitter in a way.
You've healed and I'm jealous; Why are you okay but I'm not?
