Know nothing
Know your worth
Worth a damn
Worth a shot
Shot in the dark
Shot through the heart
Heart to heart
Heart broken
Broken in pieces
Broken in half
Half way there
Half gone
Gone is the closeness
Gone like a thief
Thief of joy
Thief in the night
Night is where souls are shown
Night is not for the weak
Weak in the knees
Weak character
Character flaws
Character study
Study hard
Study your enemies
Enemies hide in plain sight
Enemies are everywhere
Everywhere the sun shines
Everywhere the light finds a crack
Crack your knuckles
Crack your skull
Skull keeps the memories safe
Skull sees behind the eyes
Eyes are the windows of the soul
Eyes see the shape of leaving
Leaving is what you do
Leaving it right here
Here and now
Here where I stand
Stand tall
Stand up
Up to you
Up and away
Away from me
Away like a secret
Secret lives
Secret passage
Passage of time
Passage spreads the silence
Time…
Silence…
About the Creator

I’m just a human trying to make it in this world. I write about heartbreak, loneliness, longing, anger, family—all the things I can’t seem to leave alone. Everything I write is about me, even when it’s about someone else.
