Poetry part deux...better works in progress

Just a smattering of a few more darker sentiments:

Poems from 10/28/09


Crush...

A crush is not what I wanted

I crush is not what I need

You pull me in, into your darkness

Then squeeze me dry until I bleed.

You push away-leaving me grasping

For a connection that’s sure to fade.

What’s left of me? I cannot answer.

My heart is hollowed. Broken. Decayed!

A touch from you is all I’m after.

A touch from you to give me peace.

My craving heart is bruised and battered.

But without you it is sure to cease.


Craving...

You give me less

I want more!

Lingering about

Like a wanton whore

You tempted me

Then left me be

With honey so sweet

It won’t set me free.

I shiver, I ache.

Like the addict dry

Waiting for a chance

To feel that high.

You pull me in

Then push me away

When all I ask

Is for you to stay.

My fear, my agony

You think you’re so clever

I’m learning its time

For this tie to sever.

Deny me, despise me.

I really don’t care.

(But ask yourself this…)

Who’ll be left standing

When I’m no longer there?
