Memories
Memories
By Jean Roy
Memories of a love we could have had
remain imprisoned in the confines
of the part of my mind
that is comprised of reminisced wishing.

Fuck
Fuck
By Jean Roy
I’m not trying to be the one.
Please realize this is just a fuck,
and what we have here isn’t love.

Beautiful Hurt
Beautiful Hurt
By Jean Roy
Here I am still loving you
while you’re fucking someone else.
Still my heart is yours
despite not having your love all to myself.
It is a constant war within
of me trying to let you go
and despite all of this pain
loving you is the most beautiful hurt I’ve ever known.

Rusted Heart
Rusted Heart
By Jean Roy
She is left with a rusted heart
from the years of abuse,
Only left with her tears
of heartache and solitude.
Expressing each scar
through the strings of her guitar,
She’s hanging on to written songs of her pain
continuing to erode her organ of love from her eyes filled of rain.

Loving Me
Loving Me
By Jean Roy
I guess for me
simple hurts are harder to see
because for you, I’d do anything you pleased.
So how can it be
that loving me
is much harder than you are making it out to be?

These pains run dry as
I attempt to cry for the

Shapes Of Life
Shapes Of Life
By Jean Roy
You shape my life
without the use of lines,
completing me in ways
far better than what was intentionally designed.

Autumn Sky
Autumn Sky
By Jean Roy
I’ve often asked the autumn sky
if it ever reminisces long summer days gone by.
And if it ever feels guilty
to witness the beautiful lilies wilting.

Letting Go Of The Old
Letting Go Of The Old
By Jean Roy
They never tell you
how hard it is to make room
for the new person.
I want to love him back too,
but my heart knows that he isn’t you.

Why?
Why?

Why can’t my heart see
that I deserve so much more
than you could give me?

your lips to mark pathways of

Silence
Silence
By Jean Roy
I look for the hues of your voice
in fragments of words that still replay in my head.
I’ve become deaf to the
melodic iridescence that is your silence.

Why can’t you be wrapped in my arms tonight?
I know it wouldn’t change a thing
but at least for once I could fall asleep
knowing you were next to me
pretending that you’re all mine.
You
You
By Jean Roy
You are still a part
of my heart, even when I
don’t want you to be.

Number Two Pencil
By Jean Roy
These tears are blurring
out the equations marked in
number two pencil.
Getting over you is still a problem I can’t solve.
