Regret

Treading water in a pool of regret...
Not productive, but where I am today,
And the weeks before.

Someone pull the plug
Drain this pool.

I need to walk out,
But don't know how.

The Half-Life of Love

If you build a wall around your love for someone, what is the half-life of love?
When can you take the wall down and not get burned?
What if the wall gets cracked?
How do you protect yourself from the fall out?

Hole


Hole

Dark
In this hole
I dug.
Deeper and deeper.
Why?
Gave up so much.
My own doing,
My own hands.

Civil War


Civil War

Competing forces
Inside
One to nurture, cocoon myself
One to go crazy and fuck the world.

Balance,
I have not.

Erase


Erase

The plans, the dreams
flit into my mind.

Rub them out --
erase with my finger.

Need an app for that,
for my mind
and heart.

Falling


Falling

Delusion built the walls
Denial, the floor
Flood of reality
No footing

Falling

Liquid suspended


Liquid suspended
 
Inside
Tears run down
Filling me up.
How do I look solid outside,
When I am liquid suspended
Inside?
