18/M Thats the thing about a hopeless poet, they are exactly that, with an end never nearer.
The people I have affected, as a car Rolls over a road, like a bulldozer, I only hope they managed not to crack At least I hope some of the concrete stayed in place. I see some of them stable, yet Others worry me beyond belief I worry they are no longer recognizable, No longer traversable No longer what I remember One cross section, of always, gives me fright And to think I'll never need to go straight down that brown haired road again

That street
Mania, as the sun hails through the breeze, and comes to kiss the cheek of the depressed. the winter is gone and quaintly I remiss about years of longing. Flux, the ray places the warm degrees to skin and a feeling comes about and begins to spread. Happiness is here, yet it was not missed. Nadir, the sun is robbed by the winds and time, but the warmth still lingers; just to a lesser deegre. May I miss the first sun of spring again.

How Quaint
A nihilistic pandemic leads our way If god is not there do we see no other place? If one leaves may morals not stay? Might immortal feelings fade like a face? An animalistic epidemic bares its teeth Is apathy a path of which we seek? Is nothing there if there is a sheath? Might immortal actions be mere freak? I no longer believe the future is present If we can choose what is true, then is anything?

Reality
"Heavy appendage lying above, Your weight equals your allure Simple leverage outside to in, Your potential follows behind" I said while chained to the center Bearing my burden as I did "Your extremities lean too far south, Weakened your zenith splinters Your midpoint, threatened from end to end, Is all that neither shall bear" The shoulders of man began to bleed, At the axis, where a silent atlas stood "Hold the earth and tether it to fit Hold the end up to balance the plain Hold each other and revel in peace Hold fast to the fulcrum" With these last words Atlas left Leaving man to work And Man alone

The Fulcrum Holds the Power
Fruit is rarely perfect, Under soil in a ditch. Can a little paranoia, **** the ***** thought, thats Stinging and Hovering and Infecting and Tantalizing?

The single comment, vortex.
For those who I've got to know. The ones I've shown that I can grow, and change. Thank you for the fun, sadness, and everything in between. You are all in memories and help make me... Me

life choices
distracted people lay IN THE GRASSES OF ETERNITY they gaze, just empty hands OPEN PALMS TO THEIR EYES the mother coughs, sweats and weeps BEEFY FLESH SHARED AS SERENITY the eggplants lay withering in dying foliage IGNORANCE FEEDS INTO DISGUSTING LIES the communications they commit waste what little time and breath they have left no shred of passion is left, they all commit to be planted and dare not care every mouth of movement spills out repeated nonsense, repeated quotes from things of repeated nature however it is not the repetition that makes them vile its the lack of acknowledgement it receives the lack of emotion for anything CONSCIOUS OR UNCONSCIOUS and the ones i connect to, are dead, or changed forever, for better or fo- no just for ******* worse. you are on your own, and when you realize that you seize solitude as a piece of pride.

The humble mumble is not heard The humble mumble is experienced The heat is not felt The heat, Is experienced I cannot describe such a feeling Nameless, The empty hole of a name Walking, sitting, and speaking It terrifies me A crowd becomes a pit And that pit swallows me As I too succumb To another's disregard
