These TimeWalls Are Falling

These TimeWalls Are Falling
Holding back my tears
For all those wasted years
What have I become?
What have I done?

These timewalls are falling
One decade melting into another
Twilight is calling
To a new yet unknown future.

Only wanted to love
To be loved true
More like a wounded dove
I was, searching the world for you.

Only the needy and the liars
Have I met, or they found me
their passions burning inside, no higher
I was their self-appointed messiah blue.
Who helped me, what have I done
For myself, Not much have I won.

I always find myself alone.
Your voice as a whisper shone.
My heart now aches
The pain of being so lame.
Or, the passions of my fate?
A heart over the years become tame.

What good has it all done?
Where have I gone?
No one in the beginning
No one in the ending
Of my story.

Holding back my fears
For all those wasted tears
What has this life become?
Why has this life unraveled, undone?

These timewalls have fallen
I can no longer hear the voices calling
Me, to a place I can name paradise
Only clear to me are the memories of my vices.

Is There Nothing More?

Dinner is on the wall Children crying, infant screaming Fear freezes her when he calls Between them there is silence peeling Its the way they only know Its how love they struggle to show He knows nothing more She can’t bear the blood and sores She understands she must flea But how else can she Be? _______________ Copyright © 2020 HeardWords America

His Love for Her

Don't leave me here! Don't you leave me here this way! What will all my friends say? Who was it that carried me on the bier? Well, will you pray for me? Or can't you wait to see another man, if only you can? Life with you was never, the kind I wanted. You called me "friend" That was after you put an end to our coupling. That was after you had my ring cut off your finger. I can hear you singing after that. You had your own definition for being a swinger. A woman, free and unattached. Since then we've never been intimate. No matter the many times I had to wait. You would love me Only by cleaning and laundrying for me. Still you'd never give me a bath. We had a life together you never let last. Don't leave me here! Don't you leave me here this way! What will all my friends say? "She buried him, with his love for her. She's not so demur." _________ copyright ©️ 2023 SDKilmer, LLC All Rights Reserved www SDKi

Adoptee Chameleon

I love the way you move. All swank and cool. I'm a dank fool canvas. I'd like to be you. Let's see who, I can be. I love the way you speak. All soft and sexy. Everything 'bout you is neat. I'm just an entity incomplete. I'd like to be you. Let's see who, I can be. Adoptee chameleon Born to be Apparently, a utilitarian personality. Adoptee chameleon. Born to be Nothing much to see, apparently. Nobody said it would be like thees. All my own history. All blood relatives. I'm a severed twig of my family trees. They said the tree caught fire. From which they saved me. What bald liars! They took me on. An adoptee chameleon. Gill or Jillian? No one could tell. All adoptees seem to be a chameleon. How I love your body. Oh how I love your manners. Does it really matter That I want to be like you? Got nothing else to inform me. So let's see, who I am. If I can break free from Being an Adoptee Chameleon Of different colors. With different lovers. To
