Peace In The Chaos

Raging wars,

Pound relentlessly in my mind,

Trying to make me bleed.


They strike me,

Over and over again,

Where they know it hurts.


The life,

Is dripping out of me,

As the light in my eyes fades.


I’m bruised,

Beaten and bloodied,

From the thoughts that haunt me.


I can’t take it.

I can’t.

I just can’t do this anymore.


I wish I could.

A Man I Loved

You say how much you love me every day

But in your eyes, I still see the grey

You hold me in your arms like I’m your’s

But I don’t see your heart, because it never soares

‘Do you truly love me?’ I ask

You touch my cheek with a smile, but it’s just a mask


You stand in front of the world that is burning

And you hold my hand tight, my mind turning

I won’t ever know if you love me

But you would desto...

Always You

The Earth shakes beneath my feet.


The sky, is a gloriously sickening shade of red.


The shrill screams of men, women and children around me flood my ears blurring together until they muffle.


Morphing into an agonizing ringing that stabs the soft spots of my temples; my head spins.


Time slows down.


I turn on my feet; desperately scanning the crowds.


A man bumps into my side, hard, turning...

"My sweet, sweet Gloria of...

Dust Bunnies

Just to dust is my job. That’s all I do. I dust and dust and that’s my chore. Clearing the dust bunnies sometimes comes in a cloud of that damned dust. It was easy to- *achoo* dream about things or at least daydream amidst the dust clouds. I liked daydreaming about people in love. It was simple and made the days shorter....

Tests and college and such things like that.

Peter’s put in toy chest like worn door mat.

Amidst the chaos, I fade away

peacefully in your arms. Childs play....
