Broke

Broken world of dreams
Slowly disintegrating memories
Reality is shattered
Possessed by one thought only
Painful to know the truth

 



Figment of my Imagination?

Your spirit surges through my veins.
You take me to the limit.
I call you at night, to end my loneliness.
I hunger for you to melt my icy exterior.
Instead, all I have is the memory of you.
You bring calm to my ire.
Why do I need you?
I want to rely on you, yet Im afraid of being hurt.
Who are you? Let me understand you.
I want to know you better than I know myself.
You fill my being, the reason for my passion.
I am exhilarated by your presence.
I want to embrace you, use you up.
You are a refuge from my fears,
You stabilise my imagination.
Is it all an illusion?
Or are you mine,
Forever. . .




Betrayal

Stabbed in the back
By the ones you trusted.
Hurt and discarded,
Left alone to cope.
The shock of finding out
That the ones you cared for
Weren't who they said they were.
