"Trace"
Forever is a desperate lie
that we tell ourselves
to try and fix the million pinpricks
threatening to burn our corneas
This almost was
is nothing
but a boiling pot
of disappointment
The quiet darkness
that pierces my restless underbelly
of well-intentioned self-loathing
is the only real thing I have left
To cling to
amidst the deafening roar
of the tides
rising in my bleeding ears
As I lie motionless on the ground
waiting for you to deliver
the mortal blow.

Poem: "Only We"
"Only We"
The stars in all their glory
dance in the sky
above us
As my hand trembles
caught in the moment
as I take yours
without a word
I wanna hold you
like a second skin
I wanna drink you
like wine
I wanna sing along
to the chorus
of our beating hearts
watching the leaves drift off
in the wind
I long for the time
where your kiss
will linger upon my lips
and nothing remains
Only we and where we
were always meant to be.

Poem: "The Day That Never Was"
"The Day That Never Was"
The tears have nearly dried
the rays of the day sun has faded
whispers between the sheets
the heart has gone cold
As memories cling desperately
to the corners of the mind
I long to reach out
to find you beside me again
But the silence
is deafening
goodbye is nothing more
than a grinding of teeth
and clenching of fists.

Poem: "The Pages Torn"
"The Pages Torn"
The stones are no place
dawn has been exiled
by sultry dark
as the sky watches
in agony
The silence pervades
tiny corners of my mind
as I close my eyes
these hands reach out
to hold onto
what's left of you and I
These words
are all that remain behind
old pages torn
stained with tears and regret
The beauty that was once shared
between us is as distant a memory
as the tides that crash and die against
the bleeding shore
at final light.
