Unknown
Unknown, what does this mean?
Forgotten past, no one wants to
listen.
A foggy future, no one pays
attention.
A dismal present, who are you?
Who do you know - someone - who is
an unknown?
No one?
Well you better go find one.
A past, present, a future could
depend on you.

Support, not wings
I cannot let go of
my surroundings, life
will not change for me.
These things that bind me,
fast and heavy, are my
support, not wings.
I dream of being free,
I cannot explain my emotions
for they run too deep,
But all I ask for is the chance
to go and stretch my wings

Like Sugar in Water
She knew
she was
unwanted she
knew she was
not sane and she
knew that by taking
one extra pill a day
would let her slip away
She had no friends, no neighbors
no parents who would care
no one who would notice
if she simply was not there
All she could lose
was the torment of
living life this way
She gradually dissolved
like sugar in water
and just as she
suspected, no one
made a glance
toward
her.

Life is what looks you dead in the eyes and tells you to move on

Up There
She could have been a grandmother
She should have been his bride
She would have been a writer
with an artist's drive
She was to be a member
of Oxford's most elite
Her body draped in cap and gown
her smile was bitter-sweet
She was to win first prize;
a poem incomplete
But destiny has a way
of changing without care
and this sparkling beauty
only shines up there
