Would you be happy to know
You can see her eyes?
Bright blue and green
She hides a little less now
Would you be happy to know
How your family has changed?
For the better, so gratefully
Their arms are so open now
Would you be happy to know
I walked away from the pain?
I learned to fill myself up
I feel so free now
Would you be happy to know
We still think of you?
Sometimes it still feels weird
To know you're beyond reach now
You don't care about who I am
Who I was
Nor who I want to be
You just want to know
How I can help you
Protect you
Minimize your efforts
Towards your own goals
I'm tired of accepting this
I'm tired of putting a down payment
On a future that may never come
I've incurred no debt here
Not in this way
I don't owe you a thing
You used to have it good
Just like the rest of us
Doing things together
Hanging out as friends
Enjoying ourselves together
With the people you knew and cared about
You seemed happy
You felt alive
Then one day it happens
Then your whole world is turned upside down
Leaving you broken
Weak and defenseless
We were there to help you cope
To try and get you through it as friends should do
It was all vain
As you turned hopeless and sour
We just could not put up with it anymore
Vain efforts to help
Cheap shots being taken
Just bitterness and pain
After you found someone else
You shielded yourself from the outside world and us
It

Infinite Possibilities
I didn't want this
This cold walking away
The barest whisper of goodbye
Before disappearing
But could you believe
I gained infinite possibilities of being
Just by the simple expediency
Of letting you go?
Can you be happy for me?
I would understand if not
Consider then, for just a second
That you too
Have the opportunity
To fly as high as I will
Take the chance
Don't look back at me
You won't see my eyes
Or my smile
As I embrace destiny

My eyes are bloodshot
They tire barely staying open
My body is numb as it refuses to slumber
Staying up in vain
Punishing itself day in and day out
For no reason at all
Pondering over the many things within the mind
Ending with the same result
Pain and hurt
Stress
Anxiety
Sadness
Nothing is the way it is supposed to be
Instead of feeling free
I feel trapped
Shackled in ball and chain like a prisoner
A victim guilty of what crime?
Nothing.
Just on the receiving end of anguish
Inescapable and unavoidable
Caused not by myself
But by others around
Slowly changing me from within
A soul destined to suffer
Happiness I canno
The Earth and all her jubilee and might,
and self-inflicted hardship overcome,
and doctrine forged to settle wrong and right
no more can tell her doctors from the Sun-
with science and scripture stirred and made the same,
and idols cast from dirt and lust and gold,
and sunlight ploughed and passed a clever name,
and beauty culled and bought and used and sold,
thus, sun and beauty bound and in a mew,
as each one treads your lashes and your hair,
but glossy doctrines cast and mould and skew;
and you can't tell the sunlight from the glare-
and don the golden makeup and disguise,
as lashes keep the sunlight from your eyes.
It lingers overlong in my mouth
Like the sting of wintergreen mouthwash
Cleansing, yet numbing
I know this dormancy is needed
Slumber more so I can grow
Icicles hang from my deep freeze heart
Preserving hibernating dreams
Of when the sun once again shines
The conifers played the piano the night you died.
On reflection, because of what happened, I expected there to be rain and stricken bolts of lightening. A perfect storm for an imperfect night.
In reality, the sun set in a perfect ball of glowing embers. There was no need for fire, catastrophe would occur that night in many other ways.
Our paths had never crossed before. Or if they had, we never knew it. I hadn't heard your voice, and I didn't know your name. Your voice and your name would never combine to enlighten me that night, nor ever again. The most important moment of your life, and possibly the most memorable of mine tugged us rough
