Once Again
Standing on the rooftop screaming your name
Hate and it’s opposite emanating from the heart you’ve maimed
Wishing I didn’t and hoping it had
Perhaps then it wouldn’t have hurt this bad
But all “great” things must come to an end
And I’m not okay, but I will have to pretend
Regardless, and despite I must let you walk away
And hold my tongue when my heart begs you to stay
Forever
We spent the days with whispered sighs
Wasted our time with thought out lies
Would cover our face to roll our eyes
With no spare time to enjoy the highs
We were always at each others’ throats
Would hide and try to sugarcoat
Wished the other sink, so we’d stay afloat
And now we’re dying with no antidote
We thought forever was our own
Never fathomed being alone
But the end is near and we have grown
And thus we must reap what we have sown
Now we’re left counting days
Soon we all shall part our ways
And we are moving in a haze
Our paths an unknown maze
Despite everything we’ve gone through
And the hurt grenades we all threw
The laughs and friends are of true
And memories from time we have hued
Alas we know what we did not
We mustn’t waste the time we’ve got
But venture down the land of thought
And dare to seek what we want sought
Till the day of future, I say goodbye
Whilst I swallow my chocked up cry
And let you know I’ll always try
To be your friend till the day I die
My Words
I write about heartache and pain
Find solace in the pouring rain
I depict the stories of present and past
Fall in love with what shan’t last
I illustrate the prodigious heft of my heart
Wonder if misfortune will remain my chosen form of art
I compose lyrics embedded with tears
Hoping to rid myself of my numerous fears
I compile all my ifs, buts and why
Smoking ink- the words are my high
I iterate what my heart desires
Stand by, whilst my soul’s set on fire
I inscribe syllables of grief upon my skin
The curse of a poet, promises a life of no win
I write consistently and continuously
Heart bleeding words quite vigorously
