This is a bunch of poetry by Kathrine Richards who has put some of her best work into one book for reader's to enjoy.
Goodbye
It's so much better to say hello than
goodbye.
It's so much safer to quit than to try. What
obstacles lie ahead; what pain is in store when all
is quiet? Contemplating a way to be, to be the
very best of me. Hoping a past subject will arise,
and take you over by surprise; where you'll miss
me so much and you'll want my touch. But you
know you must do, what you think is expected of
you...
So you sit in your room, waiting for the
boom, the boom of a trigger heart, tearing you
apart... And I hope you'll miss me so much and
you'll need my touch; but you know it's your time,
to come to me and say goodbye.
Don't you know I scream in my sleep too?
Don't you know, I feel just about the same as you?
That's why it's so much easier before you say
hello, to just turn around and go; Because I don't
want to tell you goodbye. I can't even try.
I know I'll miss you so much, I'll yearn for
your touch. And I sit in my room, waiting for the
doom...
The day we say our sweet
smile as before, see you to the door....
Kiss you one last time
As we say goodbye.
Stolen
It was stolen from me
Innocence and being happy
I shoulda seen it coming
If only I wasn't so loving...
It was stolen away
Not going back to that day
Your strength overpowered my heart
If only I could break you apart...
You have stolen the last!
Don't move too fast
Because Baby I will trip you into a black hole
If only that was the final blow...
I've stolen the words from my book
Now if you don't mind, take a look
At the pain on this piece of paper
If only we could turn to something happier...
It was stolen not too long ago
I'm gonna give it all back though
It is found not worthy of this place
If I only could just punch you in the face...
