ADA, Here She Comes!

Pure and clean.
Soft and sweet.
Happy and lovely.
Light-hearted and free.

Caught and crushed.
Fierce and determined.
Angry and scornful.
Sad and frustrated.

What is the use, anyway,
Hoping for the best,
But getting the worst?
Trying to stay above the fray?

To be gentle and joyful,
Fun and funny,
Witty and wise?
To struggle every day?

If only they cared.
If only they could.
If only they tried.
If only they would.

So what is next?
Another day,
And another roll of the dice.
Crap shoot once again.

Without You

Cascading thoughts of you
Fill my mind.
I am so lonely without you.

Will you come back
To try once again?
Can you give me another chance?

Your forgiveness
Means so much to me.
I crave your love.

My mistake
Was trying to handle life
On my own.

To leave behind
Intimacy,
To think of you

As an object,
To be used.
You deserve better.

You will be
The focus of my adoration,
The treasure of my heart.

You are special to me,
And I cannot live
Without you.
