Broken

A stab in the back
The knife in your hand
That something I lack
from my life is banned

A push to a shove
To a punch being thrown
I thought this was love
But the only love is my own

Promises are broken
They are left to your fears
Truths that were unspoken
Hidden just like my tears

Death comes upon me
With the cloak of night
When will you let me see
That there is a light.

It Won't Hurt

It Won’t Hurt

It won’t hurt

That one last sip

Of the life unknown

Could it hurt?

It won’t hurt

That one last hit

Of life’s betrayal

Will it hurt?

It won’t hurt

The one last cut

From that knife

Would it hurt?

It won’t hurt

That one last punch

Before I leave

Must it hurt?

It won’t hurt

Just close your eyes

The pain will leave

This world of hurt.

New Poem

Get me out

Get me away

I need to shout

What I want to say

Help me to know

Help me to see

Will you just show

What I need to be

Screaming in pain

Screaming in delight

Falling like rain

Throughout the night

Show me the way

Show me your face

Take me away

To that faraway place.
