Don’t look at me with those sad puppy dog eyes

The ones that got everything they wanted with a simple word

Pouring from your lips

Oh how I will miss those sweet tender kisses

The kind that bled me dry from the inside

When you twisted my words into little white lies

Oh how I surmised it to be true

Those puppy dog eyes were damned if I do

And so we stepped into the dawn the very next day

Forever cha...

We weren’t sure if we were

Ready,

Because we definitely weren’t

Prepared,

But the wind was finally held

Steady,

And who really ever is aware?

Aware of when it is time,

To step away from what you’ve

Known,

A time to stop cowering, and

Reach for the throne,

The very top,

Far from the bottom,

No way to stop,

Fear long forgotten,

We weren’t prepared, but

Who ever is?

It’s a step to greatnes...

The lited door creaked as it opened, there was faces all staring a plenty.

The door closed firmly behind her, there appeared a face, shocked and surprised.

‘You gave me a fright’

Why oh why, I just stepped in the door?

Her gaze turned to his eyes, honey brown speckled with dots of yellow.

She knew she had seen them before, but where?

She did not know, she knew she was home - familiar j...

The moon was content,

To be amongst the stars.

Comet trails like scars,

Nothing to lament.

Against the canvas of night,

A background black as ink.

Onto horizon she did sink,

Her midnight dreams taking flight.

Dawn a ways away,

Stars twinkling brightly.

Beauty oh so slightly,

In this darkness she did stay.

Night trying to be rearranged,

Like a deer caring for her fawn.

And so we stepped into a d...

The grass was white and crispy

The air so cold and chilling

The full moon shone so brightly

The frosted grass glistening

It was bitterly cold

It looked so pretty

It made me smile

It’s worth my while

And so I stepped into the dawn

Forever changed this morn...

The void that you filled in each of our lives,

Now forever empty

The words that you’d say and things you would write, forever lay unchanged,

All of us here pray for the family and friends, wish you knew that you were plenty,

Maybe if we’d just spoken up or said these things before you left, things could’ve been different

But we didn’t and now your gone and each feels like they’re to blame, ...

We say we sleep at night

But really we’re always awake

Our minds churning

With the dreams we make

We run from the coming dawn

And take comfort in stars

For they are only small lights

Compared to the rising sun

But we can’t ever hide

From a inevitable force

For nature is nurturing

Merciless and corse

We run from the dawn

Hind from the light

For we’re not adjusted

To this new coming blight

And ...

i met you at dusk

it was the third wednesday of may

and your friends

and my friends

and you and me

were drinking sodas instead of beer

because we were wiser than our classmates

who thought that speaking to the cops

in a drunken state of mind

was the way to live life

anyways

you and me fought for a cream soda

which i later discovered you prefer over root beer

we finally settled to split it

until y...

And so we stepped into the dawn forever changed..

Your eyes meet mine, and then they flicker away, a sick, tired look on your face.

Your hands curled in tight bloody fists, my hands still shaking.. how did it come to this?

To take a life… to save another…...

What do we do, love?

We’re not young anymore.

A little tenderfooted,

Perhaps,

But not naive.

Some days I still recall

The ways we slid through

Time like it was a rain puddle,

Silvered mirror casting reflections

Everywhere I look.

We grew together

Like two sapling trunks embracing

When I open your paper tongue,

And speak your words,

I cry.

Should we abandon loss?

Or bid the mirror shards rem...
