You love me only when Iโm fair to see,A painted smile, a facade that is carefree.You turn away when shadows cloud my sight,When anger flares like a burning, angry light.You crave support, a nod, a silent plea,A perfect partner, bending just for thee.But when I falter, weary, worn and bruised,Your love withdraws, a promise unrehearsed.A…

The Eyesight Stealer
Little did I know that Septemberโs kiss would fade,A harbinger of change, and a somber shade.Natureโs vibrant hues, will soon a fleeting sight,Day and nightโs dance, turns into fading light.Golden sunโs embrace, one day a distant dream,A hushed symphony, will soon become a silent scene.Familiar places and faces, now a fading art,A creeping darkness, seizing…

Crabs
Some smile and offer words so sweet,A mask they wear, a false conceit.They hoped you’d stumble, fall, and fail,Their kindness hides a bitter veil.But if you rise, your goals attain,And reach the heights they couldn’t gain,Their friendly guise will quickly fade,Your flaws exposed, your worth betrayed.They’ll nitpick, criticize, and sneer,And whisper doubts for all to…
