"Poetaster"

-Little Prince-
Pregnant with death
all the suffering
and torment
The imaginings
and remembering
one day will end.
Sweet cold relief.
Roland 8/12/13

-Mildewed Tears-
I had that dream again
I saw you
Lying in his bed
with the look of love in your eyes
that I craved when you were all mine.
I wanted to escape the agony of lost love
wishing to awake
only to find myself
staring at the wall
replaying the movie of you leaving
going nonstop
inside of my mind
Roland 8/18/07

-Thank You-
My first steps were taken
on booze stained carpets
my first words were uttered though
second hand smoke
Roland 3/30/08
