My clock in the sky.
I collect pocket watches and watch every minute that ticks on by. As you see, I don't have much time. The clouds that float by are not mine. I also collect compasses to show me the way I must go when I have to go away. In... – by A J C | added by alanswansea18

My trips
Gently as I stand on a porch that's so elevated it's even with the horizon there is a build up in my mind heart and soul that's linked to the different stages of the events in my life. The original purpose of these events... – by Richard J Edwards | added by rjenavy

There was a dusty man who had
A home with dust on dust.
His neighbors thought it looked real bad
As windows broke with just
Vibrations from car radios
When they were turned up high
Enough to rattle rows and rows
Of houses they passed by.

Not everything in life is meant to be, Feeling trapped in a relationship causing so much stress for me. Could it be that I'm desperately seeking love, feeling confused in my mind, and pain in my heart from relationships that never change. Giving my... – by Crystal m blas | added by Hazelmarie2024

I cut myself quite deeply,
far more
than I first had intended -
in the hope that as I healed
(black thoughts concealed)
that the flesh like in dreams,
would be drawn tight -
fixation concealed.
Forever together.
But we never connected.

Even though
you've given me
a glimpse of love,
(and I DO know
it could
never
be)
I
still
don't
think (.)
THAT
LOVE’S
for me.

Even before I knew,
I knew.
It's not a loss of thought, but a confusion -
a trip down 'memory lame'.
You jostle and you nudge,
and you
shake
and you swear,
and you read every piece
of literature whilst preparing to prepare.

In the fog, the tower sits.
As I approach the lonely midnight hour, I see the lighthouse tower, and then I see the distant things in purple: the kings. The color of the air disappears; only God knows exactly where. However, the tower of the night... – by A J C | added by alanswansea18

I am so very lonely, all of the time.
I wake alone.
I sleep alone.
I drink alone.
I eat alone.
I walk alone.
I talk, alone.
I am housed,
but within no home.
It’s like the Aberdonian thing of:
“Where do you stay?
Where do you live?

The woman in the blue Chevy said: “Just five dollars please,” as I pumped two more dollars of Sunoco 260 into the aging four door sedan. As she paid me and then left, I looked at the Croton Chronograph Watch on my... – by Kurt Philip Behm | added by KurtPhilipBehm

You always have something to say
How I look
What I say
What I do
How I tell
You put me in Hell
And hold heaven over my head
Like a halo
Though; it's solely to distract me
from the catastrophe
From the flames
licking at my feet
I... – by Izabella Brand | added by izabella.brand

Grief's embrace,
It was vast in space,
But now it fades, no trace,
I lull it to rest with chloroform's grace,
I illumine its depth with X-ray's chase,
I paint its hues with Van Gogh's... – by Gintaras Petras Umbrasas | added by Abars
