The Devil in White
A Poem of a Relationship Lost
Although I wasn’t sure. Your intentions seemed so pure. I was hurt so many times. You seemed like the perfect cure.
You sent my heart on an escalator, then pushed it down over the side. You wouldn’t have ever done that, till the ill white caught your eye.
My heart kept saying stay here. I was determined to try and fix. Although it was so helpless. Because you were feening for that itch.
Watching the snow enter your nose. The money spent as if home grown. The friendships lost, the bad ones gained. You pushed me away and acted vain. The heartbreak was so strong. Still to this day I have no idea where I went wrong. My deepest ill, and fullest regret to the devil in white, that sent my relationship on a non returned flight.

The Longest Minute
A minute. Sixty seconds to say goodbye. That’s all the time that I had left with him as the needle slid into his leg. I stared into his drooping eyes, looked at the blood-tainted saliva dripping from the corner of his mouth. They said that this was the best thing that we could do for him, a last kind act for a best friend…but if that were the case, then why did my heart feel so heavy?
