i must tell you, darling;

you've made quite the deposit

in my bank.

the flowers and cute sayings-

and, oh, your

killer grilled cheese sandwiches!

how i miss those sandwiches...

i promise;

i've even tried meditation-

'hummm, himmm- oh crap,

here we go again!'

i cant't get you out if my head!

your sweet disposition;

oh, how ironic!

and the tension between our hearts:

almost ionic!

just go away,

be the thunder to

someone else's lightening...

or come back and be the

sunshine to my blue sky?

Christ, i can't make up my mind.

Sincerely, Heart-Wrenched Me.

I took a deep breath and entered

I was shoved against the wall

A slap against my cheeks

My hair being pulled

Knees hit my stomach

I didn't fight back

Not yet

I closed my eyes

Feeling every pain

Remembering every hit

My body start to numb

As blood sputtered out my mouth

"That's what you get you little slut!"

Her back was facing me

This is my chance

I pulled the pocketknife from my shoe

And stabbed her

Again

And again

And again

Until all i see

Was her cold eyes staring back at me

I smiled

"That's what you get you old hag!"

Laughing and limping

As i left the house

some times

the ship sails soft

other times it sails hard

hardship

some times it sails light

other times it sails dark

darkship

without hard ship

there is no soft ship

without darkness

there is no light

without pain and challenge

there is no joy and triumph

hardship is a means

to an end that is beauty,

no matter how stormy

and hopeless

and agonizing

it all may feel

the rain beat down

on the house

and his fist beat down

on her.

her skin will never be

the same after it's been

torn apart

and pieces are lost.

the sun lit through the clouds

and his cigarette lighter

lit against her skin.

flesh is burned away

and the ghost in the

hallways mourn

her pain.

the wind cuts through

the trees just as

his nails cut and burry

into her cheek.

sometimes it's easier

to just not breathe.

go outside when the

damage is done and

look to the sky above

look how the sky

cries for you.

We have laid our claim to this place

Hunting to extinction

Deforestation

Industrialization

Spread like a cancer

Destroying everything

Yet in these places

We think now void

Grows new life

Defying logic

Discovering the extinct

Still lives in sheltered groves

Proving life will sustain

And survive

Long after the last human dies
