My heart
is a melting scoop of mint ice cream
sitting on a sidewalk
in the summer sun.
You try to hold on to it
but it just melts
away, the harder you try
the more it is slip-sliding
out of your hands.
It leaves a sticky residue,
a reminder of
what you once had.
She's a mega-bitch
someone once said
holding a cone with
a gooey puddle
sloshing inside,
overflowing in little rivers
down the sides.
Chocolate chips floating in
the lime-green marsh,
all that remains of
my ice cream scoop.

The Role of...
I lived life before it started
Tried to fit in but I was Thwarted
Ruined and spoiled was my motto
I lived and learned and still ended up hollow.
Why how and what needs to be done,
To live alone or live with I and myself, someone
Where I go, figure out from here,
What I know, just a glimpse try to peer.
Range of my minds eye climbs the sky,
The falsehood from back turns a blind goodbye.
Epitamy of it all, no matter how high I climb I still fall.
