Lost in the fog
Alone in the deep
Bound by a promise
That he couldn’t keep
Their love was wrong
Taboo in fact
Desires forbidden
Neither afraid of the consequence
The bounding promise
Became a chain
Weighing him down
Hoping he’d refrain
Devoid of feeling
Too selfish to care
He threw all caution to the wind
To keep her instead
The result of his actions
Came past due
In the form of a letter

A secretive man
He had few friends
A life of mystery he led
Until one day,
He was found dead
Marks on his neck
His body, a wreck
He was a sight to see
For all who came to sneak a peak
A searched ensued
Police pursued
No evidence was found
His life was snuffed out

Tranquility
Serenity

Every tear you shed
sparks a fire in my chest
Leading to distress

I don’t know what’s best
Or if I have anything left
To fill the emotional void
Because you’re paranoid
Always assuming the worst
Uncontrolled outbursts
You didn’t trust
What we shared
Your emotional
Vision was impaired
Calling me a liar
Thinking I conspired
I can’t take it anymore
So, I’m walking o...
There was a relief in feeling
the storm was approaching
It meant she could hide the evidence
Of what had transpired in an instant
She pushed him off the deck
It was not an act of recklessness
In a split second she had made a decision that would effect her future
But no one was around
to tell the story
For the storm would wash away the evidence and all his former glory

“Have a seat in this chair. All, please do not stare….ma’am, what can I help you with, while we wait for the doctor to come in?”
“I’m having trouble breathing. My chest won’t stop screaming.”
“Take a rest. I will get the doctor to run some tests.”
“Hurry, please. I’m really having a hard time trying to breathe.”
“Just try to relax.”
“I’m trying too but it feels like I’m about to have a heart ...
