RAIN // JUNE

It's raining again, This time a little more densely. My head full of feelings, Yet wondering why all of these are melancholy? Does this world really needs to be this cold? Or is it just me, questioning it way too unnecessarily bold? Load thunders were heard, Did anyone else's ears perceived it? Haha! no for sure! it was drop silent, all inside me. If it was really raining outside, Why were drops of water rolling down my cheeks? If it was really thundering outside, Why were some of there sounds silent, crackling just inside me? Rain long calmed off, Thunders got silent and stopped, Then why were still some thunders crackling, no one hearing it because,

Sometimes, I wish

Sometimes I wish my back didn't hurt as much when I drive; Sometimes I wish I hadn't had to drive to Hamilton and back tonight. Sometimes I wish I could still light up while waiting for Tessa so we could go home; Sometimes I wish I could have, one, just one; Sometimes I wish the addiction wouldn't lie to me. Sometimes I wish Christmas was already over; Sometimes I wish I was a child and Christmas was still magic. Sometimes I wish I'd never started smoking; Sometimes I wish I was starting my quit next week. Sometimes I wish I could have, one, just one; Sometimes I wish the addiction wouldn't lie to me. Sometimes I wish my friends on here wouldn't have their own problems quitting;

Finding Liszto, a poem

I searched the net's creative commons I wanted new comics, I wanted good ones I found some art, a three year old would draw I found sites, years to lie abandonned Just now I found you, Liszto. Three frames stand upon the page "This song's among my best" "This song's my worst" "This song's my best, so far" This cartoon was your last, Liszto. Three years ago a random stranger paused to comment on your page "I really enjoy these. Keep it up! K." I wish you had, you showed promise. I see it, K. saw it. A shame you did not see it, Liszto.

purple and broken

purple bruises and broken teeth must I repeat not blue nor green but purple indeed must I explain not healed nor fixed but broken for sure, not to show and to tell but to feel and to scream, to see but not to touch, you see, touch is what brought them sight is what lost them purple bruises and broken teeth I will not repeat. not blue nor green but purple indeed I can not explain to never be healed nor fixed that's for certain,

I wish I could feel

I wish I could feel the things I want to I wish I could feel your lips upon mine I wish I could feel your heartbeat I wish I could make your heartbeat faster if only I could feel it I need to hold your hand I need to kiss your cheek I want to know your thoughts since I can't get out of mine maybe yours can drown my pain maybe yours can make me smile but only maybe will it work if your heart didn't mind to try a little to try a little on me it's hard to love someone who doesn't love themselves

break to be broken

pictures that tell pictures that lie colors that heal colors that fade hearts that break hearts that get broken love that's never fixed love that won't be healed lies of love to protect lie of love and you break love full of lies and your broken pictures that heal pictures that fade break to be broken heal to fix others lie to protect

flowers of feelings

flowers. flowers are pretty until they die. until they run out of love and effort. people. people are pretty until they stop loving to feel things. feelings. feelings are pretty until you don't want to feel them. feelings fade. people fade. flowers fade.

A Pretty Picture

He paints a pretty picture But the story has a twist His paintbrush is his razor And his canvas is his wrist He paints a pretty picture In a colour that's blood red While using his sharp paintbrush He ends up finally dead His pretty pictures fading Quite slowly on his arm Blood is not racing through him He can no longer do harm He painted his pretty picture But the story had a twist You see his mind was his razor And his heart was his wrist

Two Hearts

There were two hearts in the delivery room The first had not been anticipated And though the other was not hated It would die better in my womb Their outcries were against my ignorance The harshness of it deafened my ears And though I recognised their nightly fears I turned away for the sake of innocence The first died on a glacial autumn night Gone forever, after a gory fight One had survived since the delivery room After an entreaty to be wary The other had gone to the mortuary To always live, with the first, in a tomb

It is Proper

Is it that easy to forget your face After I learnt of its vivid pathways? Is it fair to thieve glorious sunrays That would leave me always a hopeful trace? Is it that easy to forget our time When it made woe somewhat tolerable? Is it to bare the insufferable That I should forget so much as is mine? Ay, I will overlook your likeness As gorgeous as all its stories may be Allow me to see this as agedness So that far from it I can only flee It is hard to end this gloriousness But it is proper that I let you free

Rockets

I would not say that they are pretences But she mentions them to me nonetheless I try to trek these deep snake-like trenches When it is she who puts me to the test She never acknowledges her self-worth And my attempts to change her thought are in vain If life were to repeat this awful dearth I'd learn that tears did not equal the pain There's a world that we still need to rectify And an eternity needed for total remission Within ourselves we still question the eye But we never choose to change the vision Yet we pretend we can touch the heaven's stars Without a rocket, and only our broken hearts
