If I could change the past I wouldn’t

I look
I’m put
Into a life
Into a moment
I didn’t ask for
But I did
Beyond this body
And behind the name
And now
I am
Years beyond
me
Who I am in this world
Who I am in this body
Who I am
With this name
But who I am
Throughout
And through all the years
And forms
And faces
Wanted- needed
And Signed up for
To become a more
Understanding
Empathetic
Humble
Fair
Loving
Towards every thing

This is for you

I love you

Opposites

Attract
subtract
We barely know one another
But there’s something about you
That makes me sweat
Sweet goodness
Until today
I walked away
You made me
Have to walk away
when I wanted to stay
And I know you wanted me to stay
But hurt is hurt
And i guess I hurt you
you took me the wrong way
And so you threw it back
I guess we attack what we attract

We used to wait

That song just played
At the place where we met
And for a second
I felt everything all over again
But then
I
Stopped
And I listened
To
Something beyond
My heart and
My memories
And my emotions
And my fears
And my foolishness
Beyond.
You were never mine
You loved me because you needed me for a moment
And now that moment is gone
And so am I
Tonight I dance with the stars of anything and everything there ever was and ever could be
I say goodbye to you

Slow and steady

Binge drinker
Eater
Fucker
I am
I need water
I need sleep
I need to slow the Fuck down
I am
Not in this with you

You

Make me smile
🙂

Your love

Your love
Cuts
Jabs
Shoots
venom
Elastic
Plastic
You
Love to hurt
Anyone you think has hurt you
But your drunk drive reality
Is a little skewed
As you crash and burn hazy
You make everyone
Anyone who loves you crazy
It’s you
To start
It’s you to fall apart
And it’s you who will never really be happy.

Bad

What a bad feeling
You give me
Every time
I think you won’t
Oh well
I don’t care
About you
Or what you do
Or how you are
Or how you feel
Cause you’re not worth caring about to me
You treat me like an enemy
Or a stranger
And so that is how we will remain

Might like you better if we slept together

Down light
Shadows fade
Soft skin
Inside the soft parade
Things unseen
From things unmade
See the light form
From the shade
I will always love
You

Sucks for you

If you don’t reach out and really fight for what you love
Then you’ll lose it and lose out
And one day
Maybe on your death bed
Our maybe even tomorrow
You’ll be that guy regretting
Being stupid
And losing out
But that is where you are
And that sucks for you

Trails and tales

Trails
Of you
And me
Tell tales
Of us we yard sale
The stuff
The pieces
And junk
That reminds me
Of long ago
Way back when
I used to know you
Or at least
I thought I did
It felt like we did
Until it didn’t
Until everything
Between you and me
And of us and all that reminds me of we
Became only junk
And love sunk
In the sinking
Sad feelings
Of love drowning to the sea

I sell the remainder of our short lived love
For a measly 25¢
Cheap
Like our love
Like our love
Looking back now
It’s like our love
Cheap and free
