  From the knife,

  I feel your joy

  In your eyes.

  I don’t know

  What I did to make

  You hate me,

  To make you want

  Me dead.

  Non-Moving Teddy Bear

  Teddy bear sitting

  On the tall light brown dresser-

  Still as a statue

  Whispering Leaves

  Whispering leaves

  Fall gently on the ground,

  No sound.

  Crisp noises,

  You hear as a

  Bird makes landing

  Onto the leaves.

  They just lay there,

  Helpless, waiting and

  Hoping that someone

  Will delve into it’s

  Importance.

  Leaves fly into

  The wind onto another

  Planet, another

  Place.

  Confusion sets in

  For these whispering

  Leaves in which this

  Place is not where

  They belong.

  This place is

  Overpowering,

  Unruly, they don’t

  Belong.

  Whispering leaves

  Fly into the wind

  Back to where they

  Belong, laying there.

  No Distance

  There’s no

  Distance between

  Two lovers with

  One soul.

  Distance

  Doesn’t exist

  In their hearts.

  Distance is

  Extinct and out

  Of nature.

  Lovers are

  Never departed

  In their soul,

  Even though

  Their tears

  Drop into the

  Grass because

  Of their sadness

  Of physically having

  To go.

  But they always

  Remember there

  Is no distance

  Between two lovers

  With one soul.

  Too Late

  My teardrops water

  broken-hearted me,

  but it seems as if nothing

  is back together

  again.

  Am I too late

  To fix it?

  Feelings gush

  Out of the trenches

  In my body to earth,

  Crying out for help,

  But I’m being ignored.

  I feel like

  I’m fading

  Out of this world,

  Out of humanity,

  Out of my own body,

  Mind, and soul.

  Is it too Late

  To come back?

  I’m not sure,

  I’m not sure

  Of myself,

  Of who I am…..

  Maybe I am too late

  Unknown Sadness

  Sadness comes

  Over me,

  Hurt revolves

  Around me,

  Taking over my

  Heart and soul.

  My tears are

  Flooding my

  Emotions,

  Drowning all

  Of my happiness

  And killing my

  Humanity.

  Thunder roars,

  Striking me in the

  Depths of my being,

  Winds thrusting my

  Feelings through shallow

  Darkness.

  Sinful knives

  Stab me deep

  In my thoughts,

  Penetrating negativity.

  Tears flood my

  Whole life,

  Consuming me

  Into unknown

  Sadness.

  Stones and Crystals

  My hands are

  Full of stones and

  Crystals shining bright

  Like city lights.

  Soft sounds of

  One stone hitting

  Another,

  Making beautiful

  Music.

  Energetic waves

  Tingle my spine,

  Energy flows through

  My body as warmth

  Penetrates my skin

  While stones and crystals

  Are held.
