Donna Dolorical Poems

Gaping windows of a weary soul
Raven vastness does enthrall
A dropp of tear, a trickle of thought
From frailty, courage be wrought
...

Look at me
flesh drying up,
curling upon itself.
Limbs and fingertips
...

The sand has been poured in
The water helped harden it
Struggling to break through
She tried bashing her way in and it's hurting
...

We've come from home, come dine with us
I don't wanna
Come with me, watch me get cut
I don't wanna
...

Remember the nights
When I'd hidden in plain sight?
You wouldn't, of course
That's the point,
...

If you read her poems, I wonder will you smile?
When you discover at last
how a world was built
and made to revolve around you
...

Take me someplace else I've never been
I crave to see something I've never seen
Push me, trounce me, give me a bit of strife
Hurt me, tear me, make me risk a little life
...

I keep looking for things that'd let me off the hook
But at every turn you're dangling worms at me-
Darned, but it's not like I'm a pet that needs feeding.
...

I'm sorry.
I didn't mean for us to end up like this.
I'm sorry that I never did tell you
the things that you should have heard straight from my lips
...

There is a pattern to it all.
A pattern to my deceitful and quiet anarchy
A code of sorts, but easily breakable
If only anyone is watching me closely-
...
