So sad
so sad a life
to steal a poem
to write a poem
What’s the difference
Truth beckons the heart
Always
As silence slips into eyelids
Again remorse
Again
Well, hope is
Hope is…

walking past windows
flowing over
and over
with a surfeit of superficial clevernesses.
i grow weary and wonder
where is my place in the vast all of this
and with whome?
and tell me when?
but mostly why?
cry! openly at sad stories
weep at sad songs
but don’t long for fantasies forsaken
there’s no explanation
less salvation
so please don’t ask for more
i only work here
This [...]

watchmaker in a kingdom of dumb problems
does not watch where they live
watching a damp ramp
orange icing beer goggle cyclops
hypothesis covers him
from the sad sad zoo
dry run duck rental cops
sell bodies for margarined
hiccup gossip.
suicide of another fish
getting cross with national causes.

You say I have the best life
You say I’ll always be happy
You tell me your sad
and that I’m lucky
but did you ever think
that I always
was diffrent
that I was the one sad
and you weren’t
so don’t say I do
the way I acted toward you
was all a lie!

Frozen tears, frozen tears,
diamonds, tear-dropp pearls.
Tears aflame, tears aflame,
garnets, rubies, red quartz.
Sad tears, blue tears,
sapphires, sad sapphires.
Jealous tears, envious tears,
chinese jade, emeralds.
Here, take this key,
this seal, this solder of gold.
Lock the jewel-case
of sorrows,
this repository
of aching hearts
and liquify the key.

My heart aches,
Every hour,
That the day is long,
A sad reminder,
Of all the good times,
We’ve had over and over,
And now I’m sad that I,
Let it slip away,
I ripped you’re heart out,
And left love,
Lying bleeding before us,
I am ripe for my demise,
My eyes,
Blinded by the emptiness inside,
Beauty you’ve always been,
As I watch you,
Knowing you’re not mine,
As time [...]

When I was a little boy I used to play on Peggy’s Cove
I made sand castle in the sand at Peggy’s Cove
Sometimes I watched the ships and the fisherman passing by in his Boat
I traveled to many places before but none was like Peggy’s cove
I had gone through hard and sad times in my life
I [...]

you’r my friend and that is true,
but the gift was given from me to you.
we went thru moments that were good and bad,
even moments that were happy and sad.
you suported me when i was in tears,
we stuck together when we were in fear,
its really sad that it had to be this way,
but it has [...]

I’m 18 and I’m nothing
I’m 18 and I’m sad
Sad because I’m not everything
Everyday I cross the day
I don’t know where I’m heading to
They tell me so much
So much that it hurts.

Sad the situation
When those who think they have it
Sit in judgement
On those who have it differently
Or on those
Who don’t have it at all.
Sad the situation
When intolerance
Points it’s fickle finger
In condemnation
Sad the situation
When those who
Choose such a way
Also claim to walk
With the Man
Of Compassion
Let him who is without sin
Cast the first stone
