The Front Lines

The war was over. That was what the public saw. They were not privy to the raging storms that carried on inside the minds of those who were still living on the front lines. Virtual battles had real consequences, galaxies destroyed in the name of peace.

Cattails

Long, flat, green leaves sway
Cattails bend but do not break
In the autumn wind

Ocean State Of Mind

Beach time is measured
By waves caressing the shore
As summertime wanes

Misplaced Trust

The ring you gave as a symbol of trust,
My tears have now turned to rust.
Your feelings were fake, along with the ring,
Nothing more than some cheap ass bling.
Though I had love, it seems you only had lust.
