21/M A Chicano with a love for psych and deserts
I refuse to look at the mirror Scared of what I’ve seen Careful of what I’ll be Don’t you see? Don’t you see? I don’t care if I lived or died In frustration and disrepair I started to cry What were my promises again? Or am I just wasting time?

Laundromat whirls
To the east At the count of one A candle snuffs out

Mushrooms
Black stained hands Made me realize That he who stares back is a man A boy has changed from the feet to his eyes Accepts no shame in letting lose a tear Learned that you cant live in question with subconscious fear Green cactus in the yellow sea

A dim blue glow On tonight's walk home Trees rustle in gossip As lonely winds dance in streets On tonight's walk home Mothers comforts frightened babies As man and wife lay in bliss Another nights walk home My heart softly beats As the mind drifts far Deep into the desert dunes Under another walk home

On a walk home
Every night I stare into an abyss It laughs, dances, and begs me to jump in for a swim I don't remember where it came from Maybe it's best I don't exactly know I know for sure That beyond it, lies my temple covered in gold

Why do I keep death inside of me? Like shallow pools on summer days Turns out, it wasn't so deep Prayers can't ever keep it away Cactus in winter, please freeze over But pitch black tornado, it inches closer Not to die but merely for it to end A familiar eclipse Hated cherished friend

Sleepless night #?
Near the end of a beginning And beginning of an end As I sit alongside a brother, my dearest friend Surrender to stars A walk among forgotten men

Dead End
Time to see Seconds to breathe Time to grow Walk the path home There's only one me So time to be

Be
I rose before the sun wore it's mask I sat at the edge of the world Contemplating the task beforehand The fury of winter has gone into annual slumber While the lady of the desert awakens for her summer I removed my shadow Who kept me company throughout the night I lowed my pen for the first time As the flowers began to bloom and write No longer should I find Comfort in the endless night The sun has risen and forever shall stay up Now time to roam with curiosity and an empty cup
