Heartbroken

My heart breaks
A little each day
For problems I can’t solve
For things I can’t change
All I can do is pray
 
Please help me
Make it through another day
Mend my broken heart
It’s cracked
But it’s still beating

(2015)

I am stronger Than you think I am I am weaker Than I look
I told them about you

I told everyone About you The ugly beast Inside of me You can’t hide

A~E~I~O~U

The E’s squeak by The I’s are too excited The U’s come after Q But the A’s and the O’s They flow
Road kill

Steamroller Of life Passed by Feeling down Squished

Does it hurt?

Does it hurt? When you prick your finger No I do this just for fun Our fingers lose feeling

I raise my eyes to the sky

The whole world Aches and groans Do you feel her pain? The human in me Wants to heal mankind

Dirt

Down to earth I am but of dust Dust particles I see floating in the air Carbon molecules

If I must die

Water Beach pools and fountains Rivers creeks and waterfalls The sound The feel Floating Weightless
