Leaving Lonely.

I think if you'd love me,
I'd let you.
Stop saying that
"I don't believe"
No more
Pointing and laughing
or
Crying and hiding
From something I claim to
Not need.
Open this dark world to
Fairy tales.
Have them light this
Bleak reality.
Allow my heart to Hope.
If you'd only
Lightly kiss my eyelids,
Entwine my fingers with yours.
I would
Divorce
Loneliness.

Sea of Discontentment

I swim in an ocean of splendor,
but wait for you to pull the plug.
Swirling.
Swirling .
Downward spiral.
Who will save me now?
No hand reaches to
Grasp.
No arms encircle to
Save.
I am
Cast
to the sharks of the world.
I am
Tortured
By their
Crude
Taunting
Smiles.
I am
Alone
In a sewer of
Smirking
Faces.
