Inhuman

 

He loved her body but not her soul

 heartless he was

Not an ounce of caring in the caresses of his fingertips

only cruel intentions

She fought the pain wincing at every inflicted

deliberate embrace

 He only smiled cruelty traced his evil lips

 that dripped with deceptive intent

Nowhere to run

 nowhere to hide no one to turn to

She held her breath

as she prayed for death to come quickly

He pulled away

 her body bruised as spent tears cradled her swollen breast

She stumbled from the bed

disappeared into nothingness returning with gun in hand

One shot ended her pain

Wrong Turn

Turn left no take a right
Directions on sign
Obscured to vision
Is this my test?
Left lane or right
Fork in the road make a U-turn
What’s next?
Damn navigation system is speaking
In a language that doesn’t exist
Pull out the road map
Now I’m even more confused
Dead end a head keep on driving
Put on the breaks
This will not be my fate
To end on a wrong turn

The End


Beautiful words put into verse convey all the things
She couldn't say but desired too
Their time had come full circle and now
She was ready to move on
He didn't want their love to end
Couldn't understand why she was
Walking away from him
Something’s aren't meant to be assumed
Love comes, love dies
That’s part of the mystery of life
As the verse entered its next stanza
She gave him one last glance over her shoulder
As the song slowly played out
She carefully walked out the door
Her farewell to an
End to a love song

Caught in the Cross Fire


Camouflage in a war of desire
A love triangle
United in hearts battle
Glorified victory of soul of love
Honor belongs to no one
Trenches can’t conceal deceit

Inglorious esteem breathes contempt
Noble pride reaps sin

Tempestuous passions erupt
Hedonistic sojourns grief of dying love
Evoking a pledge of allegiance

Careless loyalty abandons hope
Resurrect a grave of loneliness
Obituary of lies fall from lips
Self- indulgent remorse
Shadows forgiveness

Freedom sounds for whom
Illicit acts caught in a moment of time
Revile intelligence of common sense
Eons of casualty of heart lie in a vacant field
            Caught in the cross fire

Escape

 
 I wish I could disappear 
 Erase all memories of myself 
Become an apparition 
 To hunt those who’ve 
Brought me pain 
Escape from troubles that brew
 In discontent my heart bleeds
