The art is not for everyone
The art is quiet
The art is silent
It's an embryo
Waiting for you to find it
To birth it
To rare a child of man
So exquisite
So pure, so brilliant, so unique
So devine
The art is a drug
Tempting you to fein for it
To die for it
To leave behind friends or family
Or a lover or an enemy
Respect the art when it bares fruit
Care for it
Nurture it
When the art is farmed you'll
Reside within your true divinity
You could match your destiny
Keep in mind the Dream killers,
The witch hunters,
Those who try to critic,
Talk down on
****** , stifle , rob or **** the art
It's in their own selfish nature
But you and I
Who have seen and understand art
Will observe and love the art for what it is
Here it be;
The concoction of melodies; Beethoven
The high notes, dance moves; Jackson
The dressing of a canvas; Van Gogh
The raw and uncut poetry; Bukowski
The eloquence , and wisdom; Socrates
Cooking of a meal  
Or a well executed crime
The art is just the art
Even if you're not capable of finding yours
Seek it
Yearn for it
But most importantly know the art
Teach thyself to observe
With open minds and silent tongues
It's right there in front of us

I lay her down in a bed of gardenia petals
Her face pale white as though she'd seen a ghost
Yet, as pretty as can be
She's away , asleep, dreaming of times that may never be
This moment we share, each tear, may tear us further apart
Her heart is pure gold, wars rage rampant, on and on, in effort to achieve
On bent knees, broken bones, and with a woeful soul, I emerge victor
This achievement now; a tragedy, heart; broken , mind; twisted, regets towards the day when meeting her effervescent

She's now torn me to bit
The spiralling black streams of water in which she called hair, leaves a nostalgia
The memories tend to sting at times
With gloomy eyes she'd stare in mine
Over feasting tables where we'd both dine
This time she won't even bat an eye at me
The deafening silence between us, stirs up my misery
Of all the times we parted ways this may be they deepest I've fell into my agony
Turn back time or **** me later
A plea to have her once again
And in the end
Unanswered prayers as I fall behind my skeletons, "so long my friend"
I let go for once, I dare to look back
Then swallow the fact that I won't see my dead lover again
Tylor Jan 2019
Mistakes and wrong decisions are apart of life
“I should have listened”
“I could have done it differently”
“I would have done better”
Instead I did what I wanted
The mind moves on undaunted
All the right moves in all the wrong places
And a great deal of failure was tasted
Yet no effort was deemed wasted
“I could have been better off”
“she would have still been mine”
“I should have known better”
“if I had only known”
The phrases that are shortly kept upon my lips
Are shaken off quickly, as though they sat upon my hips
For I …
For I …
For I …
For I regret nothing

86400 strokes
Day by day I slip away
Killing chances to say what should be said today
Do you love her?
Do you love him?
Do you appreciate the company of matrimony or family?
Cherish each moment happily
Enjoy this present given to you from me
Don’t spend it all on the lust of composing money
For I am valuable
Tylor Jan 2019
I threw my arms in the air, and here I caught the wind
For a moment the world stood still in my palms
Who would have known
The illusion would have been gone so soon
My conclusion; a delusion had been splattered on my canvas
Still I applaud my artwork
With conscience to question my art’s worth
I threw my arms in the air and grasp onto a butterfly
One that seemingly told no lie
I held on tightly, not wanting it to escape
And not before long I hurt myself
Ignoring circumstance and weakening my health
Had I only known to accept my fear
Afraid of losing something
That all along wasn’t there
Tylor Jan 2019
Let it burn
Set yourself aflame, put pride in your shirt pocket
And fall hard
**** the world
**** the repercussions
**** your feelings
Find what you love
Or
Who you love
And let that **** hurt
Cry, be depressed, soak yourself in sorrow
Drown in a bottle
But don't die though
Feel how it's feels to be alive
Why behave like baby
Tomorrow isn't far away
How would you know what's meant to be
If you don't take the chances meant to be taken
The heart was meant to be broken
