The radiant crescent moon illumina… Transforming the clear azure water… The gentle evening breeze sending… I stand above my reflection, watch… A stranger stares back at me, her…

You don’t deserve this attention You’re not worth the time of day! My heart may be crushed Evident from my bleeding tears My sadness flooding my resolve

A little boy tugs at his mothers arm while she ignores him. Tears springing to his eyes he wonders why.

My heart yearns My memory flooding my head Images gloating of funs to be had Displaying first hand reminders The taste

Looking in the window I’m frozen in place As I watch the scene inside I’m looking at the woman Who claims to be an outsider

I don’t want to see. How empty I am on the inside. My heart, shattered. My spirit, broken. My soul, torn.

Starting Over There are no words The silence stretching between us As we struggle to breach the gap Our breathing labored

The morning sun swings and twirls Drawing in the vacant streets Singing songs of love and joy She tries to wake the dead.

Unhappy thoughts Replace my good mood Sending my heart fluttering Angrily against my chest Demanding to prove their worth

Sympathetic stares linger On my crumbling face As tears attack Streaming down my cheeks Breaking through the depths of my…

Here is the thing Before you came along I was doing just fine I knew the score My days all had an order

Night has fallen Once again Leaving me alone With my thoughts Their incessant prattle

Peering into the window The scene beyond the glass Brings tears to my eyes The pain burns in my throat As I hold back the sobs

You hide behind your big smile But I know you wear a mask And I see the lies you hide I see the scarred fragile soul Cracking beneath the weight.

Stupid Boy I wish you could have seen How much you were loved Maybe if you had known... Things could have been different
