Only the bones on the plate
remind me
I ate.
I think I drank tea, but
I'm not sure anymore,
only the bones
remind me.

I was so weak
it felt like you could stab a feather through my chest
and move me with just a breath
what was this
was it death
because it surely wasn't life
was it worth it
because I surly couldn't tell

She killed me mentally
The scaring of her words
Almost killed me physically
These cuts is a representation of all her words
I feel so alone

Since you left
Nowhere feels like home
You left me abandoned
Without shelter

With no place to go
Like a tree without its roots
And a sky without stars
Like a mind without a thought
And a heart without a soul

Since you left
My lungs are filled
With water
And although i cant breathe
I've always loved the feel
Of ocean breeze.

A body floating in water
drifting out to sea
you came my way
unexpectedly

I could feel the ripples
climbing against my skin
I'm also not sure
where this all really began.

Not sure if I was drowning,
not so sure where I belonged
but when I hit my head
that's when you came along.

I could only look forward
and it was so hard to see
but, when I looked above
there was an angel smiling at me.

I tried to reach for her,
I tried to speak
But, my breath was taken
or so it seemed.

I could feel a pounding in my chest
not just once, but more
then she put her lips to mine,
I was confused for sure.

I coughed up water
then I looked in her eyes
I couldn't believe it
"you just saved my life!"

An angel was there that day
but not one with wings,
instead it was my angel
and now we share two rings.

I used to think men
should be more like books
Both you cannot
judge by looks...

If I didn't want to finish reading
I put it down... no heart was bleeding

A book will never fuss or fight
It will stay with you
through the night...

It doesn't smoke. It doesn't drink.
It won't leave toothpaste
in the sink!

It doesn't binge... it don't eat...
It won't leave up the toilet seat!

It don't forget. It doesn't mope.
It won't hog the TV remote!

It doesn't have to have
The last say...
It doesn't have legs

to walk away.

But it's not soft. It isn't warm.
It doesn't keep you
safe from harm.

Even though it makes no fuss
It can't think. It can't discuss.

Even though it has its charms
it can't hold you in its arms.

It doesn't pine. It doesn't miss.
It can't hug and it can't kiss.

So now I think on it again...
... I think BOOKS should be
             more like MEN!!!

Dark moon
As the clouds turn gray, as the wind blows.
The smell of rain, the chill of excitement running through my body.
Knowing i will awake soon.
The strong wind making my hair dance, freezing my body.
I close my eyes, the pictures of the trees moving back and forth , like a swing being push.
So peaceful, so perfect.
I wish it could be this perfect for eternity.
A cloudy gray day, the smell of rain, and wind blowing my hair.
No sun to burn me, no sun to **** me.
This gray clouds, getting darker, this wind, getting stronger,
and the rain falling from this dark sky.
Not my best one
