The
poems
that
stay
in
your
head
do
the
most
damage…
The rain came
And I was glad
For I allowed it
To wash away
Those things
I no longer needed
To remember…

In
the
end,
the
greatest
thing
wasted
was
time…

Shaken violently
Pinched
Tossed into the air
And slammed to the ground
Bruised
Beaten
Bitten
Fractured legs and skull
Injured brain
Raped
Dead at 5 months
Where was HE?

The things you said
And didn’t say
Ran through my head
As I walked away
The end came fast
As I feared it could
And the words didn’t come
Like I wished they would
We don’t decide
What we get to feel
And the pain of life
Is all too real
I’ll always hope
For you the best
And if God is real
May you be blessed

The world is a mad place
If you are paying attention
But life in small doses
Lived with fervent intensity
Allows no time for contemplating
The bigger picture
That all the while paints itself
And we never even notice
Until the end
When we are left standing
Looking intently
Into the canvas
To see if we were there

The circumstances of my life
Are not what I expected
Prior to my conception
That is – if I had any thoughts
Prior to my conception
But if I did
Perhaps my preference
Would have been to die at birth
So as not to be a part of something
That I would never understand
