Your Orbit

Love, Poetry

There is
A certain pull
A gravity
I cannot escape
I keep trying
To get away
But it keeps
Pulling me back
So here I am
Circling in an orbit
Wondering what
Gives up first
Your pull on me
Or my strength
To go away
Or maybe
We are locked
In this dance
Forever

The Fading Light

Death, Loss, Poetry, Sorrow

I have seen the fading light
From sad dying eyes
Wiped away stinging tears
Of the last mortal cries

I held her softly in my arms
As she let out her final breath
I never knew her life was troubled
I hoped she found peace in death

I thought back to all those smiles
And wondered how many were fake
How often she wore a happy mask
Just for everyone else’s sake

There was so much I didn’t know
She told me everything in a final note
I had no idea how much we shared
I’d been through everything she wrote

Her last breath I’ll remember always
She whispered softly my name
And I felt everything completely shift
Since then nothing has been the same

Waking Up

Nightmares, Poetry

Waking up from
A bitter midnightmare
Still not sure
What is hell
And what is real

Maybe both
I still can’t tell
Broken dreams
From what
I can touch and feel

Sleep always comes
At too step as price
Reliving old memories
Opening wounds
That will never heal

Ghosts of Us

Poetry

The ghosts of who we were
Of who we could have been
Constantly haunting
  and tormenting me
Should I exercise those spirits
Forever closing a door
That never quite opened
Or do I let them linger
Paying the price
In the currency of torment
So that I always have a piece
Of what we used to be
Of what we might have been

I Wanted To Fly

I thought maybe
That I could fly
But I’ll never know
You broke my wings
Before I could even try

You said because
You didn’t want me to die
But maybe you just
Couldn’t stand the though
Of just you and not you and I

Losing You Again

Loss, memories, Poetry

It’s getting harder to remember
What you looked like
I’m scared
That once I forget
You’ll be gone for good

Why is it
That the memories I want
Seem to fade away
And the memories I hate
Seem burned in, here to stay

Too many memories
More bad than good
And I wish I could pick
The ones to keep
And the ones to lose

I swear I try to keep you close
But when I close my eyes
I can’t see your eyes anymore
Please don’t leave me
Not again
