listless



not feeling
so 
much 

of a 
muchness
anymore

I can't 
fake the
connections

I won't
have the 
discussions

my 
thoughts
outdated 

my 
words
a dead language 

rabidly 
stabbing at 
tabloid typos

am i
losing 
you?

writing
with
red ink 

on the
arms
of my t-shirt

buy 
the milk
or pay the rent

waiting for the boss

this is the story of a girl who lived in the basement of the girl next door sheltered in the confines of a  suburban tract house dungeon; her punishment for runnin' wild with dreams half unlatched she ran like a spirit in the night from those badlands wind blowin' through her hair shielding her eyes from the blinding light she hugged onto a shoreline of hope someday soon, she's not sure when her savior will rise up from the streets with an armload of rain soaked roses and second chances Rene ~ 2010 Click  Here   to join Magpie Tales creative writing group .
