Did you know that in addition to writing fiction that I sometimes dabble in poetry? Well I do. Now I am really not that good of a poet, but that doesn't mean that I don't put feeling into what I write. Here are a couple short poems that I have written recently. I mostly have been just tapping them into the Notes on my phone. Ah new technology!
Why open my eyes I know the nothingness I'll see Better to keep them closed Slipping into oblivion Leaving this place forever Alone People look through me It's like I don't exist Am I so hard to see Am I so hard to love Apparently so Pain Pain in my head Pain in my body Pain in my mind Will it ever go away They say it’s here to stay My eyes water from the pain Yet I smile and pretend to be sane
