resignation

i've come to accept
that romance is best saved for
my last dying breath

what once was

the wick almost gone
what was once a robust flame
would soon flicker out

the day idly spent
minding the steady tail twitch
of my kit-kat clock

should have known better

fruit is always the sweetest

right before it rots

I felt seen by you.
Sadly, I failed to notice
Just how blind you were.

I miss your friendship
So much more than your presence
Next to me in bed.

i dare not reach out
though the temptation extreme
this resolve pains me

Her cries to the sky
Agonizing against
The aching goodbye

Shattered Fragments Of
The Person I Used To Be
Love Isn’t Easy

When The Beaten Horse
Cannot Stand, Thrashing It More
Will Not Do The Trick
