Running away from
another broken heart
into the arms
of another roaring fire
You see right through me
hidden yet fully exposed
you pierce my bloody heart
dead yet beating
Childhood innocence stolen
I was left unknowing
your mother’s foul intentions
froze my heart for good
Stone cold you touch my lips
passion burning me up
don’t touch me
I can’t take it anymore
I have ears for hearing
but you never sang
I have eyes for seeing
but I never saw you look
My heart is yours
but you ignored it
In your hands was the strings
hearts of hundreds of men
yours for the choosing
but defeated in one foul blow
Taught well
your mother wrestled
fought with realities
you have caused me tragedy
What kind of love is this?
to be cut
unscathed to scarred
broken hearts are your game
to which I willingly played

Literature
Grammar, Spelling, Mechanics, and You
In order to get the editor to read past the first page, you must have a proper understanding of basic grammar, especially if you are a fiction writer, technical writer, journalist, or academic. Poets generally have more leeway when it comes to grammar, but they should be breaking grammatical conventions as an artistic choice, not out of ignorance.

An A–Z Glossary of Punctuation
Apostrophes: Apostrophes are often a victim of grammar abuse. They are meant to indicate possession, such as ‘Annie’s’ or ‘Charles’s. They can also be used as I used them i

The Ecstasy Of Faith
You can breathe life into water
You can pull your face tauter
You cannot change nature
You cannot do everything later
Stupid
Like two rock stars
Complaining
One shows off too much
That is their job
To be cheered
To be larger than life
But it is more than hard
Being others dreams
It is a nightmare
.
Ego
Is the reflection of civilization
Your ability to reach its highest standards
Without a stable rung on this ladder
The fun sponge society
Soaks up strength
By squeezing it from souls below
Looking down
The mouth opens
“You are overthinking it’
I hear this lie a lot
Focus is my friend
It brought me everything

Literature
urgency is the curse of technology
poems are arbitrary
like woman's love
or man's hatred
to generalizations.
