The Movie in My Mind

-

What we had,

Is now a movie in my mind.

I go back and relive.

A beautiful life,

Left unlived.

Unwritten plans.

A wide-open path.

Unfinished business.

But hope gone forever,

The moment you passed. 


What we had,

Is all that’s left.

But I still have your stuff,

And a ring you got me,

Collecting dust.


I go to your grave.

To bring you red roses,

Like the ones you’d get me.

I try to smile

Instead of cry.

But I'd give anything to forget

Our final goodbye.


I'll forever remember,

The day you entered my world.

A booth at a roadhouse,

Two hearts doing twirls.

An airshow

Kissing me on a C-17.

You were glad you finally found,

The woman of your dreams.

Pictures and pieces of time

whisper the tale,

Of you and me.


Concerts and pool parties,

Funerals, and different counties. 

Road trips and rodeos,

We made so many memories.


You brought my little world to life.

And made my soul feel,

Truly alive.

In every laugh, in every mile,

You were my heart’s favorite ride.


Though the road

Kept pulling you away.

My heart still stops,

At the memory of those days.


A love like ours,

Doesn’t fade from the rear view. 

This life keeps on moving,

While a part of me stays with you.


The world keeps on turning,

Just like it’s made to do.

But every quiet moment,

Still echoes you.


Because losing you,

Was never a part of my plan.

But maybe loving you forever,

Is something I still can.


So I’ll leave the roses,

And whisper your name.

Knowing my life,

Will never again,

Be the same.


But if souls remember,

A love they once knew,

Then somewhere beyond

This movie in my mind, 

Perhaps another lifetime,

Our story continues.

As Good As You Were Lousy

Why'd you have to be, As good as you were lousy. Babe,  You truly fuckin had me, Admiring reality. Then swept the rug out, From underneath me.  I've been hurt before. Falling for good looking words. How'd I not see, You had me assured. Being all opposite, From the usual dudes,  I favored.  Then turned out, To be exactly the same.  When I would've made you,  The President, Of my hall of fame. But you shot yourself down. Forging that fame into shame.  When I was stressed, You'd tell me you got this. What happened baby, What forced you, Leaping off of our cliffs. I never thought for a second, You’d do this. Remembering,  Relentless consistence. Really tried to make me all yours. Capturing me from a distance. Until shit got real. And you fucking vanished.  Cascaded, Meaning and purpose. Just to go fucking ghost, Without telling me shit. Haunting my mind As if a sniper triggered, Numerous hits. I wish I'd forget. The good guy I  Fraternized w...

Dumpster Fire

-
Ever wonder why bad things happen to good people? Or why good things fall into the laps of the shittiest?  Meanwhile, I’m out here, some kind of saint strolling down Murphy’s Law Lane, where anything and everything that can go wrong, does.  So yeah, you keep truckin’ through the rubbish, damn well knowing you’re just digging through dumpster fires, naming trash treasure. Hell, maybe life is just a mountain of crap sprinkled with tiny specks of glittery happiness.  Am I really out here digging through this dump called life just to find glittery shit? Yeah maybe. Because I get it. Sometimes  seeing the good in people is the only thing that keeps you digging. As if happiness is buried beneath some harrowing dungeon, guarded by nasty ass dragons, and in the back corner, there it is. Happiness looks like some six-footed, kind eyed sexy creature dripping with mystery. And you’re curious. Curious enough to walk through stank ass dragon fire breath just for seven glittery se...

Vanished

Vanished. Like we never happened. As if once upon a time,  You were never, A  part of  my existence. How can I stay whole,  With such a haunting persistence.   Cause we were solid, Till you ghosted, For my birthday present. Such a brutal gift, I forgot to thank you for it.  Then rose from the dead, As if that shit never happened. Then went silent again. Right after that wound, Barely reopened. Still. Between the hurt,  and laughtergasms,  I fell into your witty sarcasm.  I lingered on the edge,  Of your rocky  yet stable mountain. I cared so deep.   Unwaveringly, devoted. That storm inside me softened. Till you reflected, Chards of darkness. And shattered my soul  Once I realized, You were made to vanish. I still fed you  countless chances. Your heart remained, Fucking barricaded. Locked away.  As if I was breaking and entering,  Just trying to get to it.  And that wandering soul, Afraid of commitm...
