The Art of Killing Charlie

Let go slowly
Smile with your eyes when your mouth is broken;
it'll turn out alright
We can play for keeps or sunrise
the harder you break the faster you heal
Fly away, your dreams are rent
Live breathe laugh love
I hate that I love what I hate.

I finally wrote a rhyming poem I like.

Break your arms, break both your feet
Hold your breath until we meet
Laugh out loud and smile and say
"Funny you should come this way
We've much to do, you and I
You never know until you try
All your dreams are torn and rent
Time and fortune badly spent
Odd that we're together now
Make up rhythm, make a vow
The more you want, or need, to choose
The more you find you have to lose
The closer you get the longer it takes
For healing to come for all of the breaks
So now you're here and can truly see
What part of I is actually me."
