I’m just a lost soul
swimming in a fish bowl
filled with tears and
childish fears
would you join me?would you take that plunge
into the darkness expunged
from a soul since torn to shreds
would you adore me?would you remind
my lungs to breathe
restore the strength
back to my knees
and when I stand once more
would you love me?or would you spurn me in this hell
these dark, watered depths in which I dwell
when my torment breaks and swells
could you love me?If I could walk on sandy beaches with the sand between my toes,
would you hold my hand in yours and smile everywhere we go?

I’ve been lost in the pages
writing out our love story
from shattered memories.A puzzle board of emotions
meticulously pieced, one
by one together until, at last,
it resembled something
like a heart.And with that picture in mind
I wrote…I filled hour upon hour
page upon page
day upon day
with just that taleit was all I had left
for your love had set sail
and left me with nothing
but this lonely, broken man’s tale…
I’m all fucked up
I’m damaged goods
a writer without a pena blank page dreaming
of the book it could be
perhaps a love story
with a happy endbut my ink’s run out
just like the tears you cried
the night you went awayleaving me here
with just a sad, lonely tale
to tell for the rest of my daysbut someday, maybe, I hope and dream
that my tale will yet move on
to brighter pastures and happy times;the love story I wanted all along
