Why?

Words can’t describe

Written or otherwise

This pain in my heart

The tears in my eyes


There is no consoling

Nothing you can say

To rid this agonizing

Emotional cloudy day


I go back to sleep

Hopeful I was dreaming

Instead a nightmare

Where I can’t stop screaming


Paying for sins

That never existed

Torture endured

Never enlisted


How do I trust

How can I believe

When all you do

Is try to take them from me


In times of strife

Alone I stand

You were supposed to be

The footprints in the sand

(e)Motions

Inundated in constant obscurity
Just a sliver of a waxing crescent
Close to phasing out another cycle
Only to begin again

Black moon dark moon
No moon new moon

Incapable of creating the source
Borrowed luster, borrowed tour
Veiling the day, anxious to move
Waiting for the dark to gleam

Black moon dark moon
No moon new moon

Everyday a new position
Everyday the same sequence
Cultivating my retreat
Shifting the daily rhythm

Black moon dark moon
No moon new moon
