Cori Arbuss Poems

When I'm sorry's not enough
When I love you's too much
When you hurt me's not fair
When songs of the dearly departed just sting
...

Though we shun ourselves out of own lives
And seek solice in the warm voices of friends
Though we never truly knew how we ourselves felt
As a whole, a being, to flee to the end
...

What a dear girl, voices softly whisper
Touching her perfection, to gain their own
Yet not one would dare to kiss her
For they walk on as his drones
...

My heart was pounding
Palpitating
Existing without you.
Its extracting
...

There's just so much there
So much left unsaid and undone.
So much left to be thought, contemplated, and reworked
So much that could be manipulated and changed/
...

Forget it all. Come fly away.
Release all tension and pain.
We'll soar over the ocean and the plains
Mountain sides and mudslides
...

I'm just so confused these days.
All I want is for someone to hold me.
For HIM to hold me.
But what I want even more is to be rid of that desire.
...

Ectopic dreams and stillborn nightmares
Chills and shockwaves breaking my sytem
Destroy, destroy
Depleat me, my desperado
...

Cut this picture up
Of me and you
You're leaving me breathless
Convulsious and nauseous
...

Trapped in a corner, trapped forever more
Trapped and locked within my fantasies
Of a love so painful, it took over my entire vision
No one could save me...no one would save me...
...
