poem
new clouds with yesterday's air
todays weather seems great
with some sunshine and a side
of love. forgetting the things
that don't matter
but I remember to take the
dog out when i get home.
writing lyrics down like
they will become something one
day. alive.

poem
riding on a wave
my mind is underwater
the sink is overflowing.
today went down the drain

you could tell in his eyes that he loved her so. every time she'd smile the world would shine. she had the ability to make even the worse days ok. her soft skin and button nose, her lashes went on for what felt like a century. those lips, don't get him started. he would dream about her lips until he was dead. her eyes spoke wisdom, not only from her life but wisdom within. every day was a good day she had no time to cry or waste. she lived as if every day could have been the last. she would cherish the ground he stepped on. just one look and she was swept right off the ground. the lovely words he would sing to her to put her to sleep. he always let her fall asleep first. she loved everything about him, especially his laugh. he makes her feel amazing, she knows she is so lucky to come home to him. one day she will be found dead on the living room floor with her smile in her right hand and her heart in the other. sometimes you can't have everything.

why do i feel like the world is ending?
like tomorrow doesn't exist.
why can't i smell the fresh flowers
at this very moment?
when will this stop?
do i have something wrong in my mind?
are the thoughts not processing
in the correct order?

nasty looks make their way around the dinner table tonight

while mother is in the kitchen slaving away.

relentless little children screaming

finger nails clipped. 

mashed potato boats and dinner rolls.

push your chair in before you leave.

watch the world die

have you ever felt so low where drowning seems fun?
have you ever seen death upon the pavement?
have you ever loved someone that doesn't love you back?
blood is red.

chew some more sleep bubblegum. 
someone needs to invent sleep that i can eat
i have so much shit to get done in one day
it makes no sense to me why someone hasn't
done this already. maybe i should.
