shy
lonely street
no friends
silence
and invented truths
drift away
a secret place
steal away
wipe away the eyes
wipe away the upside of town
morning sickness
the phantom
and drift away
secret
steal away the tears
don't wipe away eyes
and mind
drift away
away
don't let eyes
wipe away the eyes
no more
no lies
tears don't cry…
I am the best thing you've never heard of.
I hold a Bachelor's in English, History and Secondary Education, and a Master's in English: Creative Writing, though my appearance belies intelligence.
My goal in life is to write and to be read. It's a modest stretch by most imaginations.
To most I'm amazing.
It all depends on your definition of literary merit.
