There Is No Such Thing As Light

There is an easier way.
Helium and a plastic bag-
It could be over so soon,
And No One Would Miss You.

Look it up!
You'll find
The most painless methods and decide
That the sad music you always play
Isn't enough of a reason to stay-
After all;
You're not in a movie.

No One Will Every Say Don't.

Yes, My exterior is harder
Yes, You would be impressed.

But I stopped doing all the things I really loved.

The Lonely

There was a girl
Entangled, if I may;
All the sirens silent for her
Dear, She skipped a beat
Just for me, Inside the
Trappings of a lonely person
There, She lived in me,
Fondly,
Always playing
Wonder and misgivings-
-Words, That never found
Her tiny mouth, all along
She is high up in her tower.
May I, If I might
Have certain rights, There
Was an element of anger
Humming, In, Between
The ears, For many years,
All the while she was
Surrounded,
Crowded-

Can Everyone Tell?

She had a tattoo of a tree:
And in the tree-
-There sitting me,
Alone as was reality.

And when I asked her to
Explain-
-The girl refrained-
Just stared into the wayward mark.
The singing larks,
The branches part,
With no one else in company.

She had a tattoo of a tree:
Alone there sitting me-
Alone-
-Alone as I would ever be.

I Think It Was A Happy Ending.

Both dogs barked at
The television,
One paw resigned upon me;
And when the silver screen
had dimmed,
The dogs had laid and died with it.
I searched for messages
On film
-No explanation served;
And yet two dogs lay
Still as stone,
As soon the curtain closed.
