Pick ,pick, pick myself
Infiltrating inflammation infection  
Scratching at the surface
Obsession fills the void
Until reality hits once more.

Mustard coloured eyes
staring straight into my lies  
Masked with a cheap disguise it’s
Time to face the humiliation

Meet with judgment and disappointment
I forcefully push through the hours of my life …

BUT IM DONE PLAYING THIS GAME!
I’m setting free of this chain
Giving into my pain
And I don’t care what you say!
I’m no longer afraid -
This is the ONLY way

Because through my darkness I am enlightened

Befriending my shadows
I meet myself again
It’s time for some change

I only write,
when
I am in love
or
Falling apart.

I think you told a lie today
about the shadow on your mind.
I think you plan to die today,
and leave these follies far behind.

I wish you would write me a song,
and ink the truth within its verse.
Happy or sad, it's fine, so long
as this does not end in a hearse.

Cut
I break myself
Into tiny peices
On the floor
Left to the dust once more

I cut myself
Till blades are blunt
I feel pain no more

****** and raw
You can’t hurt me anymore

Mom
I love you now
I loved you then
If you were here I'd say it again

she gave me her nudes
she was bare
and naked
and so out
and open
and i willingly
accepted it
because it wasnt the nudes
that showed her body
the physical aspects
that made her beautiful
it was the words
she didnt choose
and the spontaneity
that left her
either from her lips
or her fingers
or ink

she was as bare
as her nudes
and i accepted
her for her.

she is a happy ending,
not everyone can wait for.
