Hello is Goodbye

hello-goodbye, poetry, sarahflanigan.com

When hello is goodbye
I chase after them
to be my friends
I let go and there
is nothing there
I fall and no one
catches me

When I love you
is I hate you
betrayal is an odd
acquaintance
Doubt is the daily
drink
Confusion guides
all decisions

When the past
is your comfort
the eyes miss
the moment
the now slips by
unnoticed
and tears
never stop

Wagging Tongues

Filed under Poetry, dark, dirtbags, theives

Wagging tongues tempting the knife
hearts thudding in gossipy malice
sing-song
twittering in the ether
hiding in the hallways
sneaking through back doors
careful not to make a sound
shhhhh
covetous eyes
produce the desired image
it gluts on spite and sends it
to the take-out counter
for further
conSumption
never knowing it chews their own
asses whilst their backs are turned
