Sagging skin Water that’s left, leaves Where, oh where do the trains go? With stolen memories Chocking Swollen Aching Dieing… Smudge of words, twisted ego Mosquitoes blowing in from lake Convulsion stings Time folding, untouchable I can’t find my heart Can someone please please help me? Oh, God…(sobbing) Shadows losing me Burning gasoline Inhaling toxic waste black smoke surrounding Inexistence winks Speaking for itself While your eyes speak somberly “We need to talk” Gulp My mirror becomes vacant Bleeding tomorrow’s despair Heartbreak Blood thirsty deficiency A tear Flows down The cheek of us… You say “It isn’t you... (Long pause) “It’s me” I know, blatant self promotion very well thank you! I know egotistical condescension Diagnosis of resignation Borrowing No title worthy, pages glued to hypocrisy Deception… Self persecution Self Pity Disbelief While being pulled into junk email... Like a smile that never lived A semi autobiography Hitting my head I’ve become the prey Sweet unreasoning, scars that ooze Terror fills this room… I panic, I want to run but the fetal position has just begun . .I slowly curl . . I’m afraid but let go... Dear Poet Friends Just wanted to give this a try again....I'm fine, I promise....thanks very much for stopping by to read and for your time...

You say “It isn’t you... (Long pause) “It’s me” I have heard that before...more than once~~ you always give so much to think about when reading you  M |

I would say, whatever darkness you were trying to explore, you illuminated with somewhat fetching shadows. & fetching shadows are the very essence of dark poetry don't you know. |
