Open weeping break me down
how to smile? Dust on the ground
Float away leave me here
Drifting in these tears
Left alone to stare blank
At all the passing years
Memories flow away
Left with just my fears
You asked us to celebrate
But all I can do is break
The stream drowning me inside
May I drink and die?
Why must this hurt so much
The house so empty without you
Where is your laugh your touch
All I have are these memories
The house will empty of trace
And someday I may forget your face
And if I ever do I rather be gone now
Than to live thinking I'd forget somehow

Kitten Update
Toasty Squeaks passed away. It was the runt of the litter and last kitten born. The other kitten, Apollo isn’t nursing enough so now gettimg supplement fed. Toasty also wasn’t feeding enough, we fed him last night by bottle. He was found in a corner away from mom, cold this morning. I only got 2 hours sleep, nursing kitties feed every 2 hours. I am very sad.

The birth of Toasty
Ellewyn, please.
I tried so hard year after year
To forget the aching dream
How do I carry on you’re not with me
I loved and let go and my fears
You never did return, the one I couldn’t save
How I sometimes hurt so much
Wishing only to join you on the other side
For now I can only see your grave
Forgive me, I tried to move past this
Yet every year on this fateful day
Of how your Radiance was cut short
My light, Ellewyn, I beg forgiveness
In memory of Misty, April 5, 2005.

Final Note (Haiku 2016)
My death is empty,
it will go unnoticed true,
and I will be gone.

Pained Memory
By Damien Knight
I think of her more and more
I think could I do anything
Would it have changed anything
The song on the radio, I cry as it plays
“I been kissed by the rose on a grave”
I haven’t even gone, I’m not so brave
I’ve not laid a rose in her name
I don’t want to believe it isn’t the same
I never wanted to believe she’s left me
That her beautiful eyes I’ll never see
Her blonde hair never again touch
Oh why does her memory hurt so much

Dying to Live (Nov 2014)
By Damien Knight
I feel my will faded
I know I won’t do it
I know I shan’t act
But life is so shaded
My heart feels I did right
But I am alone, wish to die
Is it worth it to be empty
Messed up, lost the fight
No matter how weak
I refuse to give up
I just won’t do it
I refuse to be so meek
Only Me (2012)
By Damien Knight
Shutting out the world today,
closing up my heart, what can I say
closing out sound and all around me.
I didn’t understand but now I believe
In the beginning and at the end
We have only ourselves as a friend
From now on I must remind myself
I can only rely on myself.
Others will not be at my side
No one comes with me when I die

Death’s Caress
By Damien Knight
If I said good bye to sweet life
The things I’d miss would be
The deepest of my regrets.
A childs laugh worth more than gold
Lovers kiss should be forever
In the mind to hold.
Keep Your wealth, I need it not
Keep your promise to help me rot
I abandoned your dark caress
For this life ahead of me.
Yes I may seem blind
At least I’m me,
At least I’m me!

Deaths Door
By Damien Knight
All around me I see
Decaying forms wretched bodies
Of things vile walking toward, me
Creatures of darkness
From the depths of night
Things that belong to Death himself
They have come for me
To take me with them
I scream freighted
Knowing my doom comes
And I am at its door
Knocking unwillingly
