Breakups

I posed the question
To push you for answers
And I guess you have been pushed too far
Maybe a time or two before me and you
Unannounced to me
I always was the last to find out
Things that deal with my heart
You said nothing
I waited on the stairs crying hoping you would come back and embrace me
You said nothing
So I packed my things
Your self righteous ass met me at the door
Your emotions neatly stacked
Ready to be rid of me
Because you're perfect
We'll I am who I am
The great I am in fact
My mother loves me covered in flaws
So you can pack those empty I love yous and I miss you baby's
Empty words aren't needed here
I'll see you on the other side
Where the grass is greener
And I'll wait to hear the words
"It was more plush where I was standing before"
I'll chuckle and say " damn you didn't know"

Homeless man in coffee shop

If a man has to use the bathroom
A man with nothing
Is it not our duty to give him the pot to piss in
Or should he be berated and embarrassed
As the public specimen he is
A cautionary sign of the lowest of the low
It reads on his chest in scarlet red: when you have nothing you get nothing

The light in me
Recognizes the light in you
Love is birthed from this space
It Is neither blind nor ignorant
But all knowing
