piece of sun

a streak of sunshine

falls from the clouds

above

they're dark

everything is

dark

except that streak of sunshine

that fell

through everything

a tiny light

inside me

it shines through my eyes

and sometimes

you can see it

concentrate

on that piece of

sun

that fell

just

for

me

lost memories

she's forgotten how to smile
how to laugh
her eyes have lost their
shine
she's feeling numb
emptiness surrounds her
nothing left for her
but she
just
can't let go of
the world
her memories
of him
of her former friends
who
used to make her happy
but all thats left of them is
memories

one more won't hurt

slip
one pill
won't hurt
the need
the thirst for more
the thrill of maybe
not waking up
to see the
morning sky
sun shining
against the pale
empty world
a distraction
no more thoughts
glassy eyes
forget and just
drift away
into nothing
a state of being
where
the barrier that
hides your mind
is down
and where you're slowly
dying

cement

cold
a breath
eases into the air
sharp
glistening rain
falls onto the
shiny black
cement
eyes reflect the light
shining from the stars
far above
and a wish to remain
in that
perfect picture -
forever

hidden thoughts

obsessions fail
your thoughts betray your
true intentions
they're hidden
i can see your hand
holding your pencil
without a care
velvet hours
ticking by
dreams undisturbed
thoughts
straying
swaying
to
him

the hour

a perfect hour
my eyes travel across the field
clumps of grass and dirt bright
against the sun's light
twirling
never ending
a glow traveling across your face
a pure smile
reaching me over the warm air
wind ruffles my hair
with the world spinning under us
perfection encased in an hour
a happy memory
promised to never
be
forgotten
