My First Love

Every night, before I go to sleep, I recall my first love. Try as I might, I cannot bear the rumors. They were tall tales, surely. I can clearly picture every detail of our encounters; though all is blurred by the tragedy of our final moments together. Oaths of wrath leap to mind when I see the murderous figure. This is in the past. At present, my heart wanders gilded halls.

Greed is a One Way Street

I caress,

Affectionately embracing my fortune.

I hoard,

Clutching each bill, paranoid.

I cling,

To the illusion of control and security.

I grasp,

At air when it inevitably leaves,

For it did not, and cannot, love me.
