You are Absent from my life
I feel intense Pain from being
Alone for the first time in my life
But I do not Regret my decision
These Tears are not for you

Revell Like
Like a kid’s
Snap together
Model kit
We fit together
Times were magical
Life was loved…
***
Eventually connections
Broke apart
Pieces lay scattered
Unwanted anymore
Sweep it up
Toss out yesterday
I’d rather think
Dreams of tomorrow

Between Wrong and Right
What happened to our friendship?
When did we become separated?
We used to be there for each other
And always up for chance to get together.
It has been a year since I heard from you.
I sent an email asking how you were
But I never got a response.
I have reread that email time and again,
Thinking I may have said or done something
Wrong.
If only you would give me a chance,
A moment to sit down and talk,
We could reconcile this friendship.
It has lasted about 18 years,
Through both tears and laughter.
I hate to see it blown away
Like a pile of leaves on a fall day.
I care about you.
You care about me
Right?

Don’t Bite The Hand That Feeds You
You were down on your luck
I helped you up
I gave you food
Money and
A phone
In many ways I supported you
So I was taken by surprise
When you seemed to block me
From being a part of your life
You grew quiet
And distant
And always had an excuse
Finally I just felt like screaming
Don’t bite the hand that feeds you
You just might damage it forever
