The Murder

I love your eyes when they're bloated beyond bursting, just like overripe grapes that have laid in the Sun too long.

The maggoty flesh of your cheeks is so unctuous the taste is truly divine.

I only wish that I could have been the one to end...

The Walking

The Walking

As I walk upon the raging storm, upon the backs of clouds I'm borne.
A child laughing at the night, all lost in dreams of fancy flight.
I have no fear that I shall ever fall, until my master comes to call.
Cry not a tear for me...

The Demon Heroin

I stuck a demon in my veins. It's made a home inside my brain. Its name is heroin, they say. It tries to steal your life away. Gone down so many roads before. I've tried to open heaven's door. Myself got lost along the way. I'm coming home...

Watch Me Fall

Watch Me Fall by: Timothy Manroe Strong.

How do I make sense of all these, these broken pieces? How do I keep track of all these days and times? I think I just can’t think when I’ve lost my place here. While empty thoughts control my mind. There...

In some ways it mirrors my own style. I usually do not end poetry with a happy ending for the most part, being a horror sify writer myself. I like the flow as well, and the fact that the poet is not lazy with the stanzas it tells the whole story.

As a former addict, I like your perspective I was unable to tell if you had ever shared my demons or if you were viewing this horrible problem from the outside. I agree with and appreciate your description of what drugs as well as alcohol do to people. In life no one else can hurt us like we, can hurt ourselves. I have lost too many people that I love to drugs and alcohol. What addicts can't see is how much they hurt the people they leave behind they are not here to help pick up the broken pieces they leave behind. Sorry to rambel on I enjoyed your poem very much and hope you read mine sometime.

Sorry I'm new to this site I forgot to rate your last poem that I commented on I will go back and do that after this. That being said I really enjoyed this one as well the complexities of a snowflake are the perfect way to describe us all because just like them none of us are exactly the same and yet we all share that beauty. Luv your work have a great holiday season.

I love this a beautiful view of aging. I also love the flow of this free verse. I attempted that with the last poem I just submitted. I find it a lot harder to capture flow without rhyming, but you pulled it off well. Keep it up.

Very funny my grandkids try to pull this prank on me. It never works but I pretend it does to make them laugh. Very nice poem.
