Whoever called me...Please call me back. I need someone to talk to, as I sit here in the dark. It's simplistic I know, My asking for more, Naively wanting to know thee, When you cared not an inch to leave caller I.D. Maybe it wasn't that you didn't care that much, Maybe you forgot you [...]

What is my eye colour? Do you think I do not see you clear? Knocking around, Shutting us out. Playing at a fools's game. -Ain't it a crying shame? What will you do when we are all gone? Who will it be to scratch out next? Could it be thine own son? For we all flock [...]
Deadlines, Deadline, Deadlines,
Deadlines, Deadline, Deadlines, Strange how time flies, Hours, Minutes, seconds, Time cries, When you don't rely on love. Their affection is not present, Slow searches A manifestation of electronic desperation Lone in hate, pain and fear itself Slowing your mind, wounding your slice of life Those happy times refuse to be rewound, In your mind's [...]
New Mantra.
Make amends another day. You will always get a chance to explain. But it is not this day and is not in an electronic way. If they truly know you they will know what it is you were trying to say. Language manifests, connections are made, life is but a test. The score is not [...]
An Eternal Lover’s Rhetorical Questions:
It's only been a week and I wonder how you sleep, whether it's covered in rays of fluorescent light, lonely like me or within a new lovers huddle? Whose life is enhanced by your insight? Whose creativity is a newly welcomed frivolous flight? Whose lives will be within our muddled history's puddle? Will she be [...]
I am a woman. You are bright.
There's nothing worse than realising you were the lone creator of shared memories. Left with a box of fucked up, rotten, festering dreams as your chosen partner turns and flees. I am a woman. You are bright. I am attracted to your flame, Like a dampened moth I search Through dark duskened daily revolving nights. [...]
It gets harder each and every day…
.. I feel hollow. Even as I turn to silent prayer. I know this ain't healthy, to live in a fetid shit heap. I find myself finding old scraps I keep, emotions kept dormant. I'm stuck at a crossroad unsure of where to follow. For my guide has let himself die. Since reborn in near-distant [...]
Dry death.
Days run on untold, Drawn from an unknown source, Derelict of divine recourse, Devoid of meaning save one of perpetual course, Daily distanced through downing deeper doses, Does this story end in being a winner? Though Destination can only be constant loss.
No contact, No connection.
It's hard to want you, To not seek and search for you, Our interconnectivity makes it hard to break free, Its harder still when I feel I need you, I yearn for your responses and parts, Your wise lines, Your advice. But I'm slowly getting better, Though times make it difficult, To need your advice [...]
A Gentle Lingering
A Gentle Lingering Your gentle words make me cry, But there's no-one here to dry these eyes, Your gentle hands type their byes, But aren't here to quieten my sighs. Your gentle words make me cry, But your not here to dry my eyes. You didn't have to be a mess, I didn't have to [...]
