Poetry
Broken In Daydreams
Eyes baby eyes like blue stages
We were parked slanted on a dirt road
We fumbling over each others lips and frames
Once it was over we got dressed it was 1998 , and on the road played The Flys Got You Where I want you
I was 12 you were 13
You treated me the. same after you took my virginity
Jokes
Pokes
and endless walks down the dirt road that always leads to home
...
Splitting
In this pathway of danger
I started to fight back
You never came back when you left we in love, heart bleeding
The trail leading straight to the start
Me in love endangered , and caught in your undertow
So much to do with so little left over
Things were left harshly
I can not be that woman now
...Pen and Paper
PEN AND PAPER
If you were the pen and I was the paper
Look at the cover and every date and number
If I was the pen and you were the paper
I would remember every mark now
On every page
If there was no pen and there was no paper
As we stare until the words come off the page
until the glow of the streetlights guide us home
