Moving On

I guess it's time to move on

Today you're here and tomorrow you're gone, I guess you decided you must move on. We were together for so many years,All that's left are so many tears. I still don't understand and I am trying to cope,Why you left me is there any hope. You said you loved me and I believed you,Obviously, you lied and now it's untrue. All I feel is sadness and pain,Everything is so dark and hard to explain. In the beginning I sat and I hope...

Something You Just Don't Joke About

You just don't joke about it... one person and I was irritable the rest of the week...

The day was good. I think it was Friday, or perhaps Thursday, but either way, the whole day was amazing... Until the very end. The bell had rung and I was walking to the stairs when I heard a guy from my grade (he was on the bench in the Senior section upstairs) exclaim, "I'm gonna jump!" Now, that bit freaked me out and I turned, but he got down off that bench and he laughed. That fucking asshole laughed. Sure, let's all...

There are times when I feel dreadfully alone. My heart aches and feels as if its lonely beating will pound right through my chest. Like it will tear through my fatigued body. Panic attacks occur coming out of nowhere. My breath whooshing out of my body as if an enormous weight has landed atop of me. The tears that come out of my eyes only add to the weight. Reminding me of my brothers, when I would watch them bench press ...

Today I walked out of Walmart. I had in hand some coverlets for my bed that were on sale. Also, my prescription for a tooth gel my dentist wants me to use. I have been using it for a year and it seems to be working to keep my teeth in shape. I don't want to wear false teeth as the previous generation often did. I see my dentist every six months and I will do so forever. I had parked around the end of the building, so I wo...

One Love One Life

Can we fall in love with but a single person

One Love One Life Are we so different than the other animals on this earth? To list but four, Gibbon Apes, wolves, barn owls and swans. What do they have and which we humans strife for? One love and one life together, yes they find a single mate. We call our mates lovers, soul mates what a beautiful word indeed. We are blessed to find our one. Our soul mate. To walk together into the night. Raise a family, be something of...

Geordie Martins Budgie

Coal miner memoir, humorous in places

Geordie Martin's Budgie We were all sitting in the Pit Canteen, at one thirty in the afternoon, half an hour from the time we have to go down. It was mid-summer as well, quite a hot day and the last thing we wanted, was to be down the hot smelly dark pit. We'd all rather be on the beach, with a few beers. But we were all trying to be positive. Laughing and joking, trying to keep our spirits up, when in walks Geordie Marti...

If you are reading it elsewhere, it has been stolen.The pre-dawn light is green-grey and dull,The air slumbers,Thick and heavy.Dampness and mulchLayer the heart of the earth's foundations.In the mirror she seesHerself.Darkness with a sickly tinge;"Better be hid in the shadows, dear,"Her heart tells her in anguish.The sun is coming,And what shall she see?The years of torment,Punis...

Sad, Lost, and Hurt

I was feeling rather down earlier today

Why did you have to break my heart? Why did you have to go? Why did you not answer when I called your name?What did I do wrong? You say its not personal, but your wrong it's very personal.You asked me never to lie to you even if it hurt? Will you not do the same for me?Why are you so willing to let go? Isn't our love and friendship worth fighting for? You wanted me to be patient and give you time.Did I give you to much? O...

A Box of Sunshine

For two that I love...

This poem only available on Stories Space. If you are reading it elsewhere, it has been stolen. Sometimes our days are gloomy,And they're filled with lots of pain.We wonder where our joy has goneAnd what we've left to gain.Sometimes our limbs are weary,And our heads just cannot cope;The dirty toil of holding onHas used up all our hope.Sometimes the hills are steep andWe've got pebbles in our shoes;Our shoulders sag, and w...

With this My eyes lay in their funeral beds A slumber akin to death Breathe me in I drift softly As a sheet dances with the wind Barely there and nearly gone Further from the great beyond Than I've ever dreamed And yet so close With lips To kiss Is there something amiss? Would I see it in your eyes? It's been so long I'm not surprised If I've forgotten all I knew Of yesterdays I cannot change The aftermath, rearrange New...

Hate and Circumstance

Never judge because we all have a story that makes us who we are or pretend to be!

He sits in front of his bedroom window A street light illuminating his face Conniving a dangerous and deadly scheme In the name of preserving his raceHe devotes no thought to right or wrong Morality has no place His only concern is with the task at hand Introspection takes up too much spaceHe looks at the digital clock that sits On the shelf he constructed from crates The glowing red numbers change with the minutes With e...

Twenty Angels

This is a tribute to those who lost their lives in Newtown, CT.

Take away these tears that fallThis waste of life of those so small The hurt that I can't help but feelIn disbelief, it seems surrealTwenty angels up to heavenBarely knew a life they're living Happiness they'll never seeChristmas gifts under a tree His revenge, a selfish thought"They are now what I am not"Shut the doors and keep them lockedKeep them safe until he's stoppedTwenty angels up to heavenBarely knew a life they'...

To Be a Heartbreaker (For the First Time)

This is what it feels like to break someone's heart.

Here I am, sitting on a large bus of high-school students (with a few middle-schoolers thrown in), as we are riding back from a church trip. My heart is heavy, and all I can do is stare out the window at the trees that line this Alabama highway, and think about what I’ve done. Sitting next to me is one of my best friends, who is the closest guy friend that I have. I won’t tell you his real name, but let’s call him Austin....

The Bet Your love came to me like the poison of a snake , infecting everything , Your love was like the impact of an explosive bullet that destroyed all , Your love was relentless and devastating , finished with all I had . Today I make a decision , I have nothing to live for, I made a bet and I lost , I do not know what it was , maybe our difference in ages or distance between us , Always waiting for you , always wanting...

It hurts Agony, Anguish, Disappointment, Devastation, Frustration, Humiliation, Fear, Anger, Sadness, Pain, Destruction, Only that you left in my soul, My soul is broken into a thousand pieces. Love, Goodness, Compassion, Hope, Passion, Happiness, Life, Sensitivity, Sanity, That erased off the face of my heart. My heart is dead in life, by your betrayal, And it hurts.
