Deception
 Apr 2020 JD

I gave you the key
to unlock my heart

I trusted you to catch me
if I ever fell into darkness

You lured me in
with your honey-coated words

Then you destroyed my heart
Then threw away the key

You pushed me into darkness
then left me there to die

I trusted you!

But all it lead to was regret

Your evil deception
Made me realize
My biggest mistake


Trusting you
Deception: an act of trickery...deceiving someone.

My Happy Place
 Apr 2020 JD
Aspen
A cabin in the woods
With a fireplace, the smell of wood in the air
Fresh baked bread in the kitchen
And a cat purring on the windowsill
There is a bubbling river flowing in the back

This is my happy place in my imagination
Where I am surrounded by greenery and life
Where time seems to slow and sunlight seems to shine a bit brighter
A place of safety, a place of happiness, a place of rest
Day 18 of the 30 day writing challenge
Prompt: A happy place
I am clearly behind on this challenge

"I slowly watch you fade away
Into someone you've never been
I see your soul burning out,
Your beauty slowly dimming,
Your outside wasting away,
I know it's the pain within."

I found you
                             when I wasn't looking.
                 I loved you
                                     without realizing.
