• The Inventory of Love

    Retracing the trajectories of her lips,

    Rebuking the claims set down by her lost eyes,

    There has never been a more sorrowful count,

    Than the inventory of old, used-up love.

  • Snow

    Falling snow and falling tears,

    Suicide of the highest form,

    Mangled, mournful rusted gears,

    Pain becomes this man’s new norm.

  • Vows and Tears

    Taking out those hurtful words,

    One by bloody fucking one,

    Throwing caution to the birds,

    Always on the goddamn run.

    .

    I had never done a thing,

    Better than the thing I do,

    Even when you got my ring,

    Nothing other than a coup.

    .

    Blistered dreams and broken vows,

    Hurt much less than I once thought,

    Shattered so like farmers’ ploughs,

    Love’s disease that I once caught.
