Forbidden Fruit* Poem

Forbidden Fruit

I can hear it
I can see it
I can smell it
I can touch it
I can feel it
I can hold it
I can have it
But I can't.

Darkness*

Darkness*

What's the point of staring in the dark, if you can't see anything?

Trusty Companion Part 2 *Poem

Trusty Companion Part 2

Gave up everything but no matter what I do or which road I choose, you are still walking besides me
Similar to a shadow, you mirror my every move
Making me wonder if I made the right choice
You manipulate my decisions
You have the power to ruin my life
You destroy my happiness before it even has a chance to blossom
When I'm dreaming you force me to wake up
Everywhere I look or turn there you are casting your dark shadow upon me
You turn my future into the past
Always there to plant your seed

Doubt.

Trusty Companion Part 1 *Poem

Trusty Companion Part 1

It's like the feeling you have when your trust has been broken by someone you love
Except it comes in smaller doses, that kill a part of your soul and trust slowly with each passing day

Jealousy.

I Am* Short Poem

I am

I caress her face as I run down her cheeks
My touch is not sweet and tastes salty as I reach her lips
I am her pain and sadness
I am her tears
I am the reason she sheds them
