Mister J
I've been asleep for quite a while
An endless millennia of indifference, it seemed
No escape nor any respite
Nothing makes this heart beat and breathe life

This world is an abysmal plane
An existence that brings pain and sorrow
Only a few finding the happiness they sought
The rest fighting viciously for what's left

"The sun will rise..", they said
".. and will bring the warmth we need"
Forgive me for the blasphemy
But I don't think it will come for me

I've been here for quite some time
Seeing the greed that all men possess
Hearing the sadness that all women repress
Failing in the good life that all obsess

And yet here I am
Still not loosing faith in a little corner of me
That the sunrise will come
And alter my dreaded fate

As I was loosing all hope
Succumbing to all the despair
Accepting the spiral fall to death
Sunlight touches my stone-cold heart

The sunrise came to my frozen wasteland
It made my heart beat like it lives again
This long hibernation comes to a hopeful end
My life turns upside down, my faith rewarded

You, whose love nurtures my dying emotions
You, whose warm kisses riddled me sweet sensations
You, whose same cold existence brought warmth to my dead
You, whose smiles and love replaced all sorrow and dread

It's not too late to be the warmth
To be the sunrise to those who still sleep
To those who lost all hope in this limited existence
To be the truth that replaces indifference and makes all men see

Be the beauty that brings this world at its knees
Restore the faith the soul-less have in humanity
Be the pockets of warmth in this cold reality
Be the life for one person in this endless dark sea
Good Morning (In my side of the world, its still morning)
Have a great day ahead! :)
He wore crooked windows
Beside morning coffee
And her spilled milk

The clouds block the sun, and I have no where else left to run

This city, these people, will never know the real me.

These memories take control of my mind, dating back to that one night where I lost my mind.

My love, my true love has been washed away.

In this town of forgotten dreams and hopes.

Who is to blame but myself, traveling in the dark searching for a way to see her again.

Tears start to fall, blood soaks the floor, as my demons beg for more.

This isn't me, I'm no ******, or at least I wasn't meant to be.

My dear friend owns a motel down the street, but we both have hidden undiscovered secrets.

His smile could lit up New York City, before his doubt pulls at his lost strings.

But I love him anyway, do I?

Or do I just force myself to love to see if I could love another?

Who will ever know the answers to these lingering questions in my mind.

We kiss, and he eats the pain away. Or do I just believe that so I can soon feel empty inside.

Motels and taxi cabs, what's so special about this place anyway?

Let's travel and fly away, until our bones turn to grey and fade away.

Bodies are left to rot at the bottom of the park, buried and locked away.

Take my brain and rip it apart, throw it away in the parking lot.

Behind the motel, the motel is home.

My new resting zone.

theres loneliness inside me.
very very deep down.
i can hear static when i look down at the ground.
the ice and snow mixing together
i can feel myself falling
its the most I’ve felt in a while.
i can see you from the ground here
you were drunk when you said it.
the whole thing about never leaving-
as you held my hand in the cold as the leaves were under our feet.
i am so used to watching you walk away.
counting the number of steps
until you are just a blurred figure.
i wonder what my mom would think
theres so much blood on my knees
as i shake,
and count
the number of steps
it takes me
to get
home.
why did you lie to me
