ATTACK

You took my breath
and left it behind
with that scary voice
inside my mind
as death was visiting
for an unknown time
I tried to escape
this rapid decline
the stench of fear
of in-human kind
clung to my body
and now fragile mind
once freedom fled
all I could see
was a distant mirage
with an image of me

Breath, you slipped away from me
Light, you found a way to scare me
Sight, you placed death before me
Dark, you called to me
Fear, you found me
Freedom, you left me to PANIC

Self Pity~

drowning slowly
over the years
each word you speak
you gasp for air
nobody sees
and nobody hears
breath a long sigh
taste another tear~

end

I, no longer feel love
since my heart died
inside of you

You, took all my love
killing the light
when you left me

Me, without any love
feels so empty
now that you're gone

Gone, into in the dark
with my heart--dead
inside of you

-end

a view within and out


lost to me
 lost to you
  this lost boy
   stands in plain view
eyes of wonder
 look to me
  how he grasps
   the world we see
daddy's gone
 mommy is too
  daddy went to heaven
   mommy went to her room
