laying there folded up on the bed,
he regretted his life
for passing up
the colorful castles disguised …
as only a dream.
avp
yellow
flying in his paper plane of fear,
a flashing yellow light warns him
an unwelcomed heart is on the horizon
searching for his love.
avp
blame
from a heart without a key
and a lock that deeply bleeds,
he was blamed for a life
he didn’t live …
and suffered the punishment for
sins he didn’t commit.
avp
remains
what remains of your name
is an empty heart
that lives behind the curtain
of a stoic façade.
avp
thoughts
he has random thoughts
in between thoughts
that loneliness…
is his only lover.
avp
sparks
tears put out the fire’s flame
but it’s sparks still filled with hope
flood the sky for love’s return.
avp
scar
under all these coats of paint
are the scars he can’t reverse.
avp
cloud
inches from the edge
of a fictional cloud
the sun hits the night,
reminding us
nothing is for keeps.
avp
masks
the masks i wear
hides the tears from
you walking away.
avp
beginnings
facing a blackened sky,
trying to escape a stormy day,
tripped up with good intentions,
he realized
new beginnings are not that simple.
