I'm just loitering.
A vacant corner my spot.
My life in the weeds.

Coffin draped with pall
Dropped by bearer, took a roll
Mourners yell A**HOLE!

I would be with you,
If I could die tomorrow,
I'd hold you again
Flowers mark your resting place
You're not there you're in my heart.

Time ticks slowly past,
when the boredom does clock in.
Or when times are tough.

My beloved one
Painted your face on the sun
Moon reflects in bronze.

Photographs of me.
My reflection in mirrors.
Isn't what I see.

Can't pick my battles,
but can choose my fighting style.
Strategy my own.

Troubles block our way.
Whether we're weak or we're strong,
road ahead is long.

Virtual salesmen
Knock on my virtual door
Still pains in the ***

Things may seem unfair.
But that helps in our growing,
way we view the world.

Our hearing differs
The tone of voice decides.
If it's said in jest.

You are like a stranger
Your touch foreign and cold
No explanation do you give
If the truth be told
At least give me an answer
That much is owed to me
I am left in the dark
Without a light to see
You seem pleased and smug
While I simply want your love
An apology I would offer up
Not something I'm above
Yet now I'm feeling angry
Like I'm not in the wrong
Keep it to yourself and pout
I'll be gone before too long.

An original.
That's what you are to me.
No one can compete.

Sweet dreams and goodnight
Relax, don't put up a fight
Let go of your mind
Forget days and years gone by
Your future is big and bright.

Your word's good as gold
What you want me to believe.
Tarnished though it be.

I'll find another.
A coping mechanism.
When life's eye wanders.

When will be my day?
My future in disarray
Doubt steps in my way.

From both sides I've seen
The divisive arguments
Nothing getting done.

My cat named Rascal
That was his name, plus his job
Bell on his collar,
to warn us of his mischief
Toilet papered the whole house.
