What Could Have Been

Walking through the airport,

I see people of all types,

And they are all beautiful.


The little kids hanging onto their mothers,

The teenage girl my age fiddling with her headphones,

The shady businessman.

Eh he might not be beautiful.

He looks like heโ€™s going to kidnap meโ€ฆ


I turn my gaze away, and meet the eyes of the aforementioned girl.

She beautiful, and looks kind.

Maybe if I approach her we...

My Own Mother

Dreams are filled with the same woman

A woman I know very well but canโ€™t picture

Cause itโ€™s been a bit too long

I can see her perfectly in the dreams

But I donโ€™t remember when I wake up

Cause itโ€™s been a bit too long


In real life, I hear her voice over the phone

Itโ€™s been forever, and I cry that night

Cause itโ€™s been a bit too long

Iโ€™m told the voice is hers, and I believe it

Though it doesnโ€™t so...

It was cold outside. Colder than it shouldโ€™ve been. The wind blew dead leaves across the ground.

Betty

I lived over twenty years of my life before you. It was a good, full life. I laughed and I cried before you, I accomplished great things and I failed miserably before you, I was loved and I was heartbroken before you. I lived a lot of life before you. But somehow in the moment of meeting you, I couldnโ€™t remember a single thing about that life.


The first time I looked into your dark eyes and held...

Nothing

Sometimes I wonder what the worst death is.

The most terrifying is drowning or suffocation.

The most unnecessary is a car crash.

The most heart wrenching is giving up your own.

But the worstโ€ฆ?

The one that no other beats,

The one that kills the person whoโ€™s already dead,

The one that is terrifying and unnecessary and heart wrenching

Is dying for nothing.


I donโ€™t want to die like that.

I donโ€™t wan...

Bicker And Obituaries

Evelyne sat in her cramped cubicle, furiously typing away. Each clank of the keys, the whispers of the gossiping editors, and the sound of coffee brewing werenโ€™t enough to distract her from putting her words onto paper. It was only when the infuriatingly familiar grey pair of eyes she felt staring at her decided to speak, that she finally looked back.


โ€œMrs. Smint finally kicked the bucketโ€ Louis...

With You

How does it feel to fall in love?

I didnโ€™t know.

Then I knew.

The moment I met you.


What did it feel like when I fell in love?

I knew with you.

I used to know.

What was that feeling?

I have forgotten....

The Newspaper Orphan

โ€œBritain has declared war on Germany, one pound to read all about it!โ€ I yell while waving a bundle of newspaper in the air.

โ€œSir, will you like to buy-โ€œ, before I finish the man says, โ€œIโ€™m not interestedโ€.


โ€œVery wellโ€ I mumble.


I put the newspaper back in my messenger bag and take out a slice of bread. I sit on the curb with about another five boys trying to sell something on the streets to. O...
