The Last Cookie
Just looking at it,
Laying there.
Just looking at it,
Ready to be eaten.
Laying there all alone.
Just looking at the nice, brown chocolate,
The peanut butter,
Everything.
Makes me just wanna grab it.
Grab and eat.
But I’m just sitting here,
And dreaming about that delicious cookie.
Just sitting here and thinking,
Thinking that it will one day be melting in my mouth.
I raise my hand to get the smooth, round cookie.
Touching it and feeling the delicious chocolate on my fingers.
Feeling it melting in my mouth.
It, the last cookie.

I Thought I Could Trust You
We used to have great times together, didn’t we?
The way we used to talk to each other?
The way we looked at each other?
The way we loved, each other?
I used to think about you all the time,
Couldn’t be a second without.
I couldn’t hear anything else,
I was totally lost in my own world,
With you.
But when I found out who you really are,
I felt like a fool.
When you left me,
I thought;
How could I trust you?
It really hurt when you left me,
When you just walked away.
Without a word,
You just, left.
And now I have to suffer with this,
This stupid pain.
Through my whole life, thinking;
How could I?
