NaNoWriMo

Wow, I cannot believe that is has been so long since my last post....life has this nasty habit of getting in the way of everything else.
This month I have signed up for NaNoWriMo...wish me luck!
I hope to also write about this wordy adventure...stay tuned

Under the Cherry tree I shall weep for thee

Exit Stage Left

Sounds of a war not worth waging
Guitars screaming in the night
Can't blame me for trying shoes on that did not fit
How would I know if I hadn't tried
Silent conversations
Words unneeded
The deafening sound of unspoken goodbyes

Empty

Why are endings always sad?
Beginnings scary
The middle so boring
I am tired of this
All of it
Trying to make the pieces fit
Wishing them whole
Until I am left holding
Holes in my heart
Pulled through my soul
Can't do it anymore
It's over...
Watching the vultures
Circling
What is left of our love affair

11th

Dark clouds
Hanging low in the winters sky
Memories of your cigarette smoke
Inhaling...Remembering
Scent of Dunhills
Watching you control the smoke
Without thought
Creating a smoke filled dance
Mingling with things unspoken
Always unspoken
But on the tip of my tongue
Bitter taste of regret
It's days like today
So close to your birthday
That I remember
What I wanted to say
