F/South Africa Cruelty is for the Loved. And the Lover? / ...
It's only fitting, my deepest darkest secrets linger on the trembling lips of the night. Yes, the stars are in on it too! Accessory to crime, they're always in sight. Dusk to Dawn I wear my sin on a sleeve, what else can I do When all they've witnessed slips into the ears of the rising Sun. ~Split second. A lifetime ~

A note on a nightstand
Oh yes! Bind and lock me up. He has declared me his, sound the trumpets and ready the chariots. oh Adam, my dear You kiss the lips of an adulterous and leave me cold; Mere words could never revive this decaying flesh. YOU'VE TAINTED THE ****** KILLED YOUR MANHOOD ...

Purity in the hands of man: Baffling
He held me. Down to the arch of my back ... He grabbed me. His soul depended on it ...

Stumbling
"Who hindered you from speaking truth?" Bliss is the name praised in ignorance Preached from the mouth of your haughty priests, at the altar of pride. Birthed into unknown familiarity, grasping its customs of indulgence ever since. Shameful hearts hold their heads high, the law is to never hide. Oh, golly. Deceitful joy all around! Yes! We sing and dance to the melody of the harlot's harp Oh, tis beautiful! tis merry! Truly a place to be With ardor, even the noble are welcomed, loved They hear yet not understand, see yet perceive not Aha! tis the jolly of folly. Unclean, the night is young. Astry, lukewarm affection. Lips of dispute Entities of doom Spirits of denial "Give strong drink to him who is perishing, And wine to him who are bitter of heart, Let him drink and forget his poverty, And remember his misery no more" ~Will~

An infant utters, a babe speaks
You love to write He says in frustration You do it so much Just do it now Like I want to spill my feelings Like I want to let him in Like you deserve to see The words painted on my heart But you don't That's something you have to earn And you truly haven't tried

Write
Rattled demeanor Stained scent A cluster f**k, a splif for every slip "Don't do it, never fall", you remind your decaying self. Once again. ~YOU~

In a dark abyss, silence stricken There lay, a vibrant entity Bare, Bruised, Bewildered A born sinner Like a broken glass which light emits, a beaming spectrum Birthed from an unquestioned universe Brethren, sister, we're diverse Yet of the same father Soaked deeply into love, we lack nothing less love recklessly, break your heart wholeheartedly Ask no questions, hear the answers Remove thyself from a dark state of mind lest you drown in it ~Where are you?~

Ode to humanity
Patience sings to me like a musician to her audience But I am no audience in awe And time, like you, has never been mine. It seeps through my open palm And I lose each day A piece of us ... ~Chance... be mine~
