Every day is just like the
Last; desperation flashes
Through me; I swallow, again.

Threshold
I sense that I will
Break through or break down
Perhaps both will be
Reconstructed
One day I will be over
This broken brain, shattered heart,
And I won’t know you at all.
Pilgrim
Raze the temple to the ground
Let there be no refuge in
This trackless desert, so that
The truth may be discovered
Outcast
Broken hearted, and
Dispirited; I cannot
Return to where they
Gather and play. I
Spoil the rhythm, upset
Those I want to please.
Survivor
No more shall I be
Fresh fledgling, rookie, strung up.
I will endure to
The last, and watch all
Who thought themselves my better
Draw their dying breaths.
Role Reversal
Broken hearted by
The early death of those most
Dear, I became a
Physician, a scout
For Death, to better resist
Her unending work.
Yet somewhere with time,
The tragedy became the
Overlong life, not
The end. Finally,
I began to guide Death when
Merciful. My peace.

Bad Seed
Something is broken
In me, an ever growing
Flower of discord
Blossoming into
Chaos, destroying all that
I put my hand to.
