My eyes of wonder
Clouded and disillusioned
Empty promises

I See The Beauty
I see the beauty
Surrounding in rainbow hues
Muted by the pain
~~ Dominic R. DiFrancesco ~~
Hate Is Hate Is Hate
Hate is hate is hate
Whether homophobia
Or misogyny
Someone is bound to be hurt
With scars lasting a lifetime

50 Word Story – Cardboard Roof
The cardboard roof does little to keep the icy rain and bone-chilling cold from compounding his pain. Looked upon as a piece of worthless trash, he is invisible to passersby..
Perhaps if they realized they were just one paycheck away from his Hell, they’d offer him a bit more sympathy.

Think Before You Speak
Think before you speak
For words can cut like a knife
Silence is golden

I Gave You My Soul
I gave you my soul
Naked and vulnerable
What was I thinking?
All I wanted was your love
And you crushed me to pieces.

Love is what’s sacred
Yet you treat it like folly
And who’s is the victim,
Me…the one you claim to love
The object of your hatred.

Maybe I’m the fool
Gullible, the stupid one
Believing in love
Like Shakespeare’s starstruck lovers
And I’m Romeo

Bridges Not Of Steel
Bridges not of steel
But built of trust and respect
Demolished by words
All that we say and do has
Consequences long after

Our Lives Ebb And Flow
Our lives ebb and flow
Between pain and pure pleasure
The wonders of life

Exsanguination
Exsanguination
This is what we call living
The modern world

Something Gnaws At Me
Something gnaws at me
Shredding the scars of my heart
Left to bleed again
Cleanly cut by razor blades
Love’s left to spill on the floor
Why pain in passion
So much that it breaks the heart
Contradictory
Is not love the greatest joy
As promised from up above
Perhaps I’m fickle
Believing that love is grand
Like in fairytales
If this turns out to be false
Then I am a born victim
