When i put food in my mouth
i will choke...

My damaged shadow
still roams the hunting ground...

Sunlit dragonfly
searching grey clouds for courage...

The sweet fragrance
of that passing perfume in the breeze...

There is no one else to blame
for the scars I can't escape from...

It was information overload
when the vet first broke...

Sharing our serene beach
as beating waves shimmer like diamonds...

I remember the day
you were dropped off at my house...

I am convinced that she was sent to rescue me
from the blackness that tortured my soul...

It has never been the same since you left.
The fields in my heart can no longer keep...

I'm hurting I'm scared
but no one ever cared...

Seven hundred poems written with this hand
Each one telling it's own story of my life...
