Yesterday I laughed myself out of a poem,
And today I simply lost one. I find it ironic

How the sunshine speaks with the sky so
Romantically, as if offering oil pastel crayons
Like a slightly more dignified child to that
Of his crush in the month of February.

And yet words do not warm, as we we learn
By winter's breath sharply caressing our faces.
I think he speaks to the homeless lady I heard
Coughing and singing a few odd weeks ago.

Yesterday I laughed myself out of a circle,
And today I'm simply lost in one. I find it ironic
The feelings of love are so wonderful
But when the newness fades away, does the romancing stop

Do the word "I love you" still have their true meaning
Do the looks of passion change to looks of disparity
Do the words "let's do something together' mean go on you own

Things do seem to be comfortable, but if you do not show real love
Sometimes things happen, sometimes

Interest in another for something different, from the lack of feelings
Your lives become separated and you individualize, yet still together
Time passes, your just another face in the room, a hello and a good bye

Just some thoughts, I let so many go and one that was very special
I do ponder at times about past loves, would I do anything different

Probably not then, but maybe now?

Living a lie will always cause your love to die
Running from everyone, never wanting feelings
So afraid of the hurt, your only friend is yourself

Beat down and betrayed, from your past
With only notions of love, they quickly pass

As you scribble in your diary everyday
Only about the hurt that someone can cause

Blinded and petrified you only do one thing
Hide your heart
Hurt is so cruel, but is does pass
Don't keep reminding yourself

It's raining
It's pouring memories that you can't erase
Raindrops have her image printed on them
and we both know..
You love that face.

You put me down next to the others

Let the soft wind blow my ash

You’ve been known as a bad lover

But I was a fool to let that pass

Smoked me in, I’m in your veins

Now I own you like no other

Go and try, exhale the pain

My vengeance cigarette burns forever

And we both know, you’ve tasted better.
