Poetry: Bitter

Rushing

Rushing rushing
To expedite the
Process of getting
Through this life
Without the constant
Memories of how
Or why I did.
No pleasures,
Too soft for me.
No painfulness,
It's too rock
Hard for me.
To too hard a
Heart, I cling.
I don't want to
Feel anything.
I want to cast my sail
And glide effortlessly
In and out of one
Place to another on a sea
Of nameless faces
And faceless names.
If I can't see him
How much harder to
Remember is he?
Nothing, nothing
Is what I long to feel.
Indeterminately I will
Be rushing, rushing
Through the cortex of
Forgetfulness,
My life.

    Quiet, much thought on my mind
    Trying to find the right spot
    To release tension, to unwind.

    Bitterness

    Standing still on the beach
    thinking of the hurtful speech.
    Wondering why he had to be cruel,
    and makes the sand

    Me bitter, well maybe I am;

    I have a bad taste in my mouth, I just hate falling for a scam.
