Inside

So many voices.

Telling never-ending stories.

And the only one listening

is me.

Harsh Reality

You said she didn’t love me.

I knew it wasn’t true.

The truth of the matter is,

she didn’t love you.

Endings

One day

you’ll say,

“I don’t want to meet like this anymore.”

And I’ll say,

“Okay.”

A Second Chance

My mother’s death,

allowed for my rebirth.

One Day

If I don’t do it now.

I guess I’ll do it later.

ENFP/ESFP

I love you

but don’t you see,

we can’t do this again.

There’s too much of a difference

between your S and my N.

Some Days

Some days

I just want to stay inside.

Never seeing the light of day.

Inside

where no one can see me.

Some days

I hear my own footsteps hitting the pavement.

Pounding

Inside my head.

Heartbeat

Drowning out the traffic.

Do you hear it?

It goes like this

Clippity clop.  Clippity clop.

Wink

Do you think she’s weird?

Yeah.  (pause)

I like it.

Open Book

If you open my notebook,

you might see my soul.

I’m not sure I’m ready for that.

Online Dating

If you like Pina Coladas and gettin caught in the rain.

If you aren’t into yoga, if you have half a brain.

If you like makin love at midnight, in the dunes of the cape.

I’m the love that you’ve looked for

Write to me and escape.

Rupert Holmes – Escape

(Love the original…now here’s my personalized version….)

 

If you like green tea and health food, and warm sun on your skin.

If you love doin yoga, don’t think dancin’s a sin.

If you like makin love at midnight, meditation at dawn.

I am all that you’ve longed for, be the first to respond.
