How Can This Be?
Deep with in my heart I've
cried so many tears
Through my hardships
through the years
I finally thought
I found someone
to love
But the feelings I guess weren't
the same
almost was like some cruel game
To toy with
one's emotions so
and make them grow and grow
Sometimes you just wonder why
there's that sun shining in the sky
Pain
and deception that I feel inside
Something I can no longer hide
He was my heart and soul
I again was just a fool
And
I loved him so
Love was one-sided I know
THough I thought (he told me so)
he felt the same
what a masterful game
To
him I was just a senseless game
Now I wonder yet again
Being the person I once was
should I again be the cloud of
dust
Hidden form the world
though that feeling is so cold
Knowing I can no longer hold

Review:
I think that we have
all been here before and it is not a place that any of us want to return to...though not getting back in the game is not the
answer. This effort started out a little shakey but as real feelings started to appear it smoothed out, making it a good piece...

Always Alone
He goes about his day,
mostly in a lonely way.
Wanting to connect,
somehow he can't.
What
is his life about?
It is the same day after day,
he continues to try and find his way.
There has to be a reason for
him to be here,
not finding it is his deepest fear.
With all the people that walk this earth,
you would think another
would come forth.
Still, one more day has come to an end,
without even one he can call friend.

Roses Are Extinct
I’m sitting here
Choking on the rose petals that have been fermenting in my
tears
Because my blistered toes showed me where to go
Now, as the servant to these drunken footsteps
I’m
tripping over wounds that never healed
Because I kept picking at them
Revisiting them and revising them
Until all
the beauty became extinct
But, memories can last forever
As long as there’s meditation to mold the thorns
Embedded
in my palms
To expose the unseen heartbreaks fueling my inclinations
To dance upon your lips
I know this is all
getting old
It’s getting old
But I just can’t let go
Because I can never forget you
And the comfort
I feel only in your arms
I’m only alive when you hold me
But you can’t duplicate the feelings of a velvet
rose petal
And the soothing fragrance
Parading around every move I make
Suffocating my stride
I washed my
feet again and again
After I’ve succumbed to the way of the dust
Look at my face
Burned, peeled, and tired
Weathered
from the journey of gravitating toward your shadow
I guess a substitute is better
Than having no part of you with me
at all
But knowing I can’t have you
Is another tear for me to look through
I just can’t walk away
Instead
I meditate on the overwhelming desire
For just one more moment in your arms
All that’s left now is to cradle
these motivations that clear me of all I know
Tainting everything in this broken heart of stone
And my wounds that I
create
Mimic the wounds caused by the thorns nesting in my flesh

Tonight
Tonight
I can write the saddest lines
the night is shattered and the blue stars shiver in the distance.
The night wind revolves
in the sky and sings.
Tonight I can write the saddest lines
I loved him, sometimes he loved me too
through the
nights when he held me in his arms
He kissed me again and again under the endless stars.
Its so hard to say good bye,
He
loved me, sometimes I loved him too.
How could one not love his eyes of blue?
Tonight I can write the saddest lines
To
know I don't have him,To feel I lost him.
Could we ever be friends again?
To hear the immerse night,
still more intense
without him.
And the verse falls to soul like dew when out on a limb.
What does it matter my love couldn't keep
him.
The night shatters and he is no longer with me.
Tonight I can write the saddest lines:
Please don't go away,
I
knew you wouldn't stay anyway.
I wanted to tell you I loved you,
Never wanted to let go
I want you to know.
Now
I'm left astray
There's no such thing as love anyway.

Very sad and intense words it will
be ok, love happens for everyone whom is good and kind such as you, never doubt this, love wil come again this I can see.

These are very sad lines indeed!
Overall it was a very good read...the emotion seeped forth like blood from
an old wound!
The best line:
"And the verse falls to the soul like dew when out on a limb."

Pleasure and Pain
One is never far from the other.:
paper thin walls easily crossed,
razor sharp edge balanced walk.
hanging by threads made
of emotion,
cutting slightly into soft skin.
crying laughter, love and hate become one,
sooths a burning desire,
out of control.
coming back down, fever cooled to touch,
rests again on the beautiful sweet blade
