Unhappy in Happiness

Unhappy in Happiness

She's so unhappy with happiness
uncomfortable, afraid it will end
never gives over totally
always a hold back
skeptable, leary, suspicious
happiness leads to sorrow
she's been down that road before
so  unhappy with happiness
she searches for mourning
it is at home, in her heart
sadness, feeling lost, cold
characteristics of her being
a familiarity with depression
that raw sense of security
happiness, to good to be true
cannot last forever
a temporary setback..
for the saddest of souls...

Loneliness

Loneliness assails her,
every waking moment, it showers down
as she stumbles in the puddles
people always hurting,
torturing her soul
unkept promises, sugar-coated lies
is there a friend, for her?
muddy water leaves footprints
of where she has been
the path, for the lonely
her tears threaten to fall
but pride keeps them locked up
so desparate, she is, for love, a friend
hoping for trust, crying when crushed
keeping the walls up
where the footprints won't find her..

Rush to Me

her back against the wall,
afraid for her life
he turns and sees her
eyes lock together, pleading...
he smiles easily
slowly, suspended in time
she falls softly to the floor
blood leaves a path from where she stood
it drips silently unto the rug
she struggles for breath
he rushes to her, protective heart
tends her wound, whispering in her ear
a bullet passed through her chest
exiting her back, no blood in the front
blood against the wall
she dies in his arms
he cries into her hair
holding her, he smiles easily...
