I Don’t Love Easily

Love, Poetry, Sorrow

I don’t love easily
I love difficultly
It’s hard for me
To fall in love
And it’s hard
For others
To love me
And I would say
That I’m sorry
But I don’t know how
To love
Any other way

How Do We Always End Up Here

Loss, Love, Poetry, Sorrow

How do we always seem
To end up back here
In this same place
In this same fucked up way

Sometimes we run away
Other times we chase
Sometimes we build walls
Other times we tear them down

How many times will we
Drag emotional knives
Leaving broken jagged scars
Zippered across each other’s hearts

Yet here I seem to sit
Alone in this dark and dreary room
Wondering if you ever hear me
When I’m whispering your name

Trapped In the In Between

Poetry, Sorrow

In between
Falling in love
And trying so hard
    not to
In between
Releasing my demons
And trying so hard
   to keep them leashed
In between
Iron resolve
And trying so hard
   to not simply coming undone

It feels like I’m always stuck
Somewhere in between
Keeping myself together
And simply letting go

And lately
I’ve started to wonder
How long I can live
Tapped
In this fucking in between

Faded Memories of a Voice Gone Silent

Death, Loss, Poetry, Sorrow

I struggle
  some days
To remember her voice

Too often I wonder
Even after all these years
Was there anything
I could have done
To keep her
  from going silent

I don’t know
All the pain
That she went through
So maybe it’s
  selfish of me
To wish she had stayed

Even if only
To hear her voice
  instead
Of a failing memory

Another Day

Anger, Poetry, Sorrow

The clock strikes midnight
And you realize
That for better or worse
You’ve survived another day

You give a sigh
Relief or regret
You’re never quite sure
Inside your demons relax

Soon though the moment passes
Your demons wake back up
Because you know
There’s another day coming

The Meaning(s) of Love

Love, Poetry, Sorrow

Love
Is such a powerful word
But isn’t it funny
How that same word
Can mean two
Totally different things
Coming from
Two different people
She said that word
And I know she meant it
I just don’t think she meant it
The same way I did

I’ll Never Stop Loving Her

Loss, Love, Poetry, Sorrow

I’ll never stop
Loving her
But I will stop
Pretending love
Is enough
In this cold world

I’ll never stop
Loving her
But I will stop
Letting her
Push me off
This painful ledge

I’ll never stop
Loving her
But I will stop
Waiting here
For messages
That never come

I’ll never stop
Loving her
But I will stop
Playing games
That no one
Will ever win

I’ll never stop
Loving her
But I will stop
Thinking that
Somehow
There is a future

I’ll never stop
Loving her
And maybe
Someday I’ll stop
Telling myself lies
About the things I will stop

The Story That Never Was

Loss, Poetry, Sorrow

The slate wiped bare
As if the story
Was never written
But if I were
To tell the truth
Every story I write
Every page
Every sentence
Every word
From this day on
Will be influenced
By this story
That never was

That Moment

That moment
The sad thing
About that moment
Is when it happens
When you are in
That moment
You’ll have no idea
That that moment
Will be the best moment
Of your life
You won’t realize that
Until many many
Moment later
A lifetime of moments
Will have slipped away

This Thing That I’ve Become

Poetry, Sorrow

Inside
  these lonely thoughts
I dream of a time
When I am not
This thing I’ve become

But it’s too late
The clock has slipped
Forward just a little too much
To take a step back
And undo all the things
That I have done
