I found another one of my old ones.
Broken Keepsakes Burnt bridges and turning tables
leave what was once safeguarded
now unprotected, broken and untamed.
Once fondest memories now scorned
left to wither like that of a tree in the month of December.
Faith once solid and sure
tested like that of rolling dice,
chance the only constant.
Books of wisdom now fragile
left to fade like that of footprints in coarse sand.
Emotion once shared and celebrated
pulled and frayed at the edges,
disarray the image of certainty.
Once beautiful and lush
left dilapidated and neglected like that of ancient bricks and mortar.
Life once grasped and sheltered
torn and ruined for all to see,
death portraited as sweet relief.
Once sacred and precious
left to rot and decay like that of fallen treetop apples.
Ones point of no return now imminent,
farewells are soon due,
all is left behind is times forgotten.
Thoughtless inattention now a present condition
for things once loved and treasured.

Yay! Here's something I wrote:
What is the Truth
Will we ever know the true truth?
If someone stares you in the face,
says a few words,
and says that's the truth...
How do you know?
The whole world could be saying a statement,
saying it's true,
with every person on every continent
shouting out that this is the truth,
what if they lie?
How would you know?
You never can tell
when a person is lying
or not.
You may think it's the truth,
know it's the truth,
but do you really know that
it's truly the truth?
The whole galaxy could be a lie,
and nobody knows it.
I could be lying,
but how could you tell?
How could I tell?
The truth will never be found, on this Earth or another.
Not even the purest of heart knows the truth.
The truth is a mystery that will never be solved,
even until after the end of time.

(Finally made a poem - at 3:30 in the morning - that I don't think is too dark to post.)
"You"
You.
I want you to put away
That razor blade.
I want you to put the pills back
And get rid of the bottle.
I want you to put that rope
In the trash can.
I know it's hard right now.
Whatever you're feeling,
It's been felt before.
People can get through it.
They just have to be strong enough.
I believe in you.
Even if you don't think you're strong,
I know you are.
You wouldn't be here today
If you weren't.
And if you say that you can't afford to care,
I say to you,
Love doesn't come at a cost.
Love is free.
It duplicates, and it heals.
And if you don't think you have enough love,
That's okay.
I've got plenty enough
For the both of us,
And it would be my greatest pleasure
To share some with you.
