Emotionless

Indelible earthquake of tawdry love
spatiotemporal twisting contortionist bodies
incommodious affection a mere irritation
exasperation at the blizzard response
peculator of a once trusting heart
now nothing but icy supplemental lust
weary nostalgia where feeling existed
just a cold embrace, emotionless

Ghost Whispers

Like a hollow shell
a husk cast from a dead seed
my ghost whispers her name

For the love we once had
a pair of ethereal tears
a phantom heart that cannot break
my ghost whispers her name

The wrongs I have done
the damned rights I have wronged
eternal torment is my comfort
and my ghost whispers her name

Audio Poetry, twitter poems
15 Oct 2009

Today’s poem “Broken Heart” is about someone being blind sided with a “I think we should break up” type of scenario. It was inspired by the 11 random words, really 13 (in blue) provided by the following twitter followers:
@Piratelover22 (lethargic), @craftyGAgal (vote), @shonie1966 (original), @Zorlone (Bunsen burner), @Aluwir (incontrovertible), @santasdevil(execution), @hectica (blinders), @rmilana (sunshine), @JenaIsle (ictericia), @filigreegirl (imminent), @saurabhgolu91 (broken heart)

Broken Heart

Lethargic like a flower without sunshine
or a bunsen burner without oil

My face becoming pale and yellow
as if suffering from ictericia

Was I wearing blinders over my eyes?
no forewarning of the imminent situation

Incontrovertible words I can barely process
a formidable decision of which I had no vote

Our original genuine love just an illusion
now a swift execution of my broken heart
