What a bizarre creature. Do you happen to know what it is? / - That's a fallow deer. Beautiful isn't it? - / It is. / - When I die, I'm coming back as one of them. / - How do you know? / - I just do -
Skin so thin it is paler than bone Whiter than pages of old brittle tomes The veins in my eyes spewing with blood Filling the socked with dirt and with mud Shards of shattered teeth cutting your gums Droplets of spit vomited up on budding mums Can I see you in this state? As you see me in mine? The mystery of your beauty Breaking the devine Your brittle bones will snap As you have always feared Your stomach will eat your own body From your toes to your ears Though you don’t know it yet Your own skin will pale Your eye will be pulled from your face And your teeth will make you look frail And while you see me As such a horror that you wish to flea You mustn't be filled with sorrow For this will be you tomorrow

You tomorrow
How do you know that you love someone? How do you know that you care? is it when you want to sit and run your fingers through their hair? Is it when that song reminds you of their name? is it when in the end it only matters that they came? Is it when you look into those beautiful beautiful eyes you know that they can do no wrong you know they cannot lie. You may tell me something and someone, something strange but none of them apply to me no matter how big the range So how do you know?

How do you know?
Some times its moments like these that actually convince me that I should stay listening to a new album way passed when I should have shut my eyes listening to you on call with her and laughing so hard because of me and the other's shared looks that I feel sore when I wake up walking to a spot that I considered forgotten that I considered my own and sharing it with you you see, taking flight has always appealed to me especially when the only one who knew my pain just rubbed salt in the wound cut off my arm and took it as a souvenir Now I can't bear taking flight because that would mean leaving you behind one of the only ones who understood me Yes, you were one of the only ones who understood me You, the luck up my sleeve and if I ever decide to leave you are the one whom gave me pause I will feel the greatest sorrow when I leave you behind It is moments like these, laying on a rug listening to what I will be listening to for months and mounths and thinking about you and not just that for my mind is a monster and when you saw you accepted it Sitting on a cold couch talking of others doomed romance was one of the best things you could give me for I could finally be the true me The shared looks that we give each other when it makes people mad Oh, those looks those looks that I will never want to miss never want to forget And oh how I wish to hold your hand oh how I wish to cradle you in my arms but all I have is your eyes to cradle and your words are all I can hold you mean more to me than you could ever know and those little stolen moments that we make ours Yes, you were the one I could at last love the one who finally accepted my mind Yes, you are my love and You, the luck up my sleeve and if I ever decide to leave you are the one whom gave me pause I will feel the greatest sorrow when I leave you behind Its moment like these when the music fills my mind when it flows through my head to my feet and all I can feel is that place when I want to stay the most It is moments like these when I listen to the analytical words of another and sit by my friends side Its moments like this when I am tightly warped in an embrace on the top of a mountain with a cross feeling the true love of God for the first time Its moments like these when I miss you all so badly that I can hardly breath but I know I will see you again tomorrow Its all of these moments When I finally see my friends who have become family after a period of absence When I can lay in a bed and rest when I truly feel weary When I cry and I cry because in the end, I know I will have to leave it all My friends who are now my family The tree that has now become familiar The radio with its iconic voices The lemonade with its iconic tastes The music with its wonderful sounds The park with its heart wrenching sunsets The house with my friends as family rooms Those things all give me pause because in the end leaving will happen whether I want to go or not but I hope that you know out of all of those things out of all of those beautiful, tragic, wonderful, aw striking things you are truly the ones who I will miss I love you all, I love you all more deeply than you could ever know

I have often found irony in it When such silly people come to me And ask me of love They seek for the knowledge that I have not earned Nor gotten through experience And yet I can still provide They call me a master of that trade A trade that I have never traveled on And that I never thought I would travel on I have often found the irony of it When I have all of the light in the world Yet the moment I long to read it is gone That as soon as I need something It fleas and runs and hides from me I have often found the irony of it That when I am in the presence of someone and name on there lips is never retired And when they cannot bear to be away from them And they know every And every And every Little thing of them They cannot tell this person how they feel They cannot express to this name All of the things that they wish to become They cannot even speak to them I have often found the irony of it But now does it hit me with force Where I used to be so knowledgeable All of the information has left me When I thought I could relay of just that It is gone in my time of need And now I can understand the people I once called Silly and Ironic For I am in love Utterly and hopelessly in love And I am utterly and hopelessly lost And everything I once knew Has disappeared I cannot even fathom the thought of them So much as go up and talk Yet everyday I yearn For some way to explain to them For some way to make them understand That every time they smile I can feel my heart throbbing But there is no way for me to explain All of my excellence has faded All of my brilliance has left I am stuck with a heart throbbing And a soul hurting All I have is a face of irony And a mind that has betrayed itself

The face of irony
I have often found irony in it When such silly people come to me And ask me of love They seek for the knowledge that I have not earned Nor gotten through experience And yet I can still provide They call me a master of that trade A trade that I have never traveled on And that I never thought I would travel on I have often found the irony of it When I have all of the light in the world Yet the moment I long to read it is gone That as soon as I need something It fleas and runs and hides from me I have often found the irony of it That when I am in the presence of someone and name on there lips is never retired And when they cannot bear to be away from them And they know every And every And every Little thing of them They cannot tell this person how they feel They cannot express to this name All of the things that they wish to become They cannot even speak to them I have often found the irony of it But now does it hit me with force Where I used to be so knowledgeable All of the information has left me When I thought I could relay of just that It is gone in my time of need And now I can understand the people I once called Silly and Ironic For I am in love Utterly and hopelessly in love And I am utterly and hopelessly lost And everything I once knew Has disappeared I cannot even fathom the thought of them So much as go up and talk Yet everyday I yearn For some way to explain to them For some way to make them understand That every time they smile I can feel my heart throbbing But there is no way for me to explain All of my excellence has faded All of my brilliance has left I am stuck with a heart throbbing And a soul hurting All I have is a face of irony And a mind that has betrayed itself

Don’t speak to me about her Don’t talk to me about love Don’t ask me to help plan your advances Don’t ignore her blatant rejection Don’t keep pursuing her The more you speak her name The more I want to wash out your mouth The more you draw her face The more I want to curse your hands She told you no And yet you call out her name She ignored your call And you passed her notes A true love recognizes rejection And doesn't keep pushing it A true love respects boundaries And doesn't keep getting close And yet you still come to me Talking of how to ask her When in reality She hates you more than you could know Wake up She doesn't see you as even a friend She sees you as someone who is obsessed She sees you as someone who hugs her without permission She sees you as someone who draws her without consent She sees you as someone who won't stop asking No matter how much she keeps rejecting Wake up She doesn't love you

Wake up
Tis the life of one who has no life at all only to show off their finery at the richest of ***** Only to brag of their wealth to all of the people they meet Only to tour the estate with every person come to eat only to waltz in town on a horse of every kind only to say their work is the luckiest you find only to talk of the vacation taken over the sea only to boast of how their children have married higher in the hierarchy tis the life of one who has no life at all refusing the needy and the ones who call whose ego is prouder and ever so tall blinded by greatness that one day will fall.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Ah, This dream of a land is the most wonderful place to be and the face of the clock is something I cannot see and while on that topic there's something that's bothering me For I don't know if I should hide or flee Are flowers supposed to go on a killing spree? But alas I forgot that I am yet in a dream silly me   oh silly me ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

It is queer The way that eyes blink out from the walls yet still whilst I water them so there screams are the loudest calls It is queer the way that the water flows up Even when the bed is dry and the fish flop into the valley beside thee pond despite being filled with wine, I can catch them in my late evening cup it is queer That this poem shall reach you For where I reside cannot possibly be described for the dank dark feald is oh so dry, I don't know how anything grew it is queer the concept of time for in this place one may notice things things that used to be fine why, one fact that I truly find to be queer is the state of thyn mind whilest you sleep everything is turned on its head and everything has landed in a heap Why is it said that in thyns dreams Thee must always be happy and gay that there will be nothing said of demons that it shall consist of unicorns and fae And truly I say, that a common man's opinion on dreams opinions that weren't even written in your year can be seen by many and not called queer that now it is called a song of the heart and that is something that thee should forever hold dear

I find my life to be a puzzle And you often might to And that's something that might make me A little more like you Puzzles cannot be the same Or else they'd be no fun And sometimes life may seem the same Until the day is done The puzzles in life are hard to solve And I’m sorry to say That, that’s the thing about life It won’t get better on the way.

I find my life to be a puzzle
The taste of blood is like rust Its inky black running down the side of my cheeks from my hollow heavy eyes The smell of shadows is like death Dark and stale and cold, freezing my stone heart heart to my lungs The feel of dark sharp black lines, is sharp and stinging It overwhelms my head and floods my mind till all I can do is cry And then the blood flows freely from my eyes The blood of the taste of rust Shadowless forms come and call me They think that they shine They think they have body’s of light and hollows of gold But they really have horns and tails with sharp spines They never wonder what it is, whipping at their backs Yet when the call to me There tails spear my chest, and leave me bleeding dark sharp lines The lines that overwhelm my head and flood my mind until all I can do is cry Then the blood flows freely from my eyes The blood of the taste of rust Then when I come to my place called home I can feel the shadows breathing in all of the air that is supposed to be mine Growing bigger and bigger Like the shadowless forms that come and call me That whip me with their tails Making me bleed dark sharp lines That feel so heavy that all I can do is cry And the blood starts to flow from my eyes The blood of the taste of rust
