Remains

All the things I left unsaid

Echo through my shadowed mind,

Pressure builds within my head

Love and hope are left behind,

Agent of my own demise

All my sins take me apart,

What is left to my surprise-

My diseased and broken heart.

marked

Bruised up

Battered down

Broken again,

Some dreams shatter

Before they begin,

Reflection

Am I fighting the good fight

Taking up worldly slack,

Or am I just another frog

With a scorpion upon my back?

lovelorn

Still in my despair
Bewildered by this turn
Loss has left me torn.

Broken

Diseased and broken
My heart skips time,
Our love becomes
A pantomime.

With feeling

Bloody my fingers on the shards of my broken heart,
Bark my knees on your sins of omission,
When did baring our scars become foreplay?
My luster fades in your cool, calm eyes
Tell me you want me, once more...

You know nothing, Brennan Gill.
