kriss hughes Poems

i wake up, screaming
cold sweat
dripping down my forehead
a memory
...

i hope you really care
like you say you do
i hope you realize
that you are my world
...

every scar on my arm
every pill that i pop
every drink i consume
is a part of me confused
...

nicotine's aroma
lingers on my skin
thoughts of pills
overpower and win
...

my mind is exhausted
my memories erased
my hands washed clean
my happiness laced
...

there are burning tears
streaming down my terrified face
i try to explain my behavior
but nobody can handle it
...

The Best Poem Of kriss hughes

Remembering Vietnam

i wake up, screaming
cold sweat
dripping down my forehead
a memory
flashes in front of me
all those names
lined up in rows
all those families
most people dont even know
why am i the one
still here, alive
why?
why?
why couldnt i have died?
all those names
they leave me feeling weak
like everything around me
is crashing down
i just want to lay here and weep
weep for the lives lost
weep for the sacrifice
not only the sacrifice
of their own life
but of their families lives also.
