I don't write it down much / but when I do, you'll know it.
It's been another cold summer with the air conditioner running nonstop - Yeah I am constantly caught up - at screen Racing thoughts I capture them plus nightmares are right there to deform ideas, but ideally I'd die for, my ideals Yeah So I try to warn my peers to keep it real But honestly, my fear is it appears that no one wants to hear About that **** rather just amount to **** Pout and ***** sulk and disconnect I'm ******* repulsed by it - so I choose not To follow suit and instead chase my heart - Call a ***** a ***** and just make this art Yeah rather that than rage for days Yeah I'd rather work away the pain than relax distracted from the fact that we are each a slave - in one way or another

I said - what?! I can earn much cash as long as I serve enough ads? maybe... Food & Drink ? (please.) *" and who would think the Hive would lie? Besides - You and I both know we're better off than the next guy You know, the left side type to return from work and gets high? " * I tend to the bars to ascend into stars probably end up on Mars by the time I end this verse - 'cause life's too short not to fight this war So worry free? Never me. I liked when words get the recipe - stirred must be, - why I'm the latest scoop must be, - when I didn't post up on the greatest stoop See - it let me be free, - unnerved instead of splurging at every urge occurring and I'm worried so of course I'm surging with venom, one man's poison and is another man's medicine but every moment you're in is blurring with desire and sin and Emergency - Insurgency Insurance schemes - and murderous fiends swerving from being purged of their devilish ways and I thought I was just at the rebellious age but this is the rebellious age, where selfishness gets paid Personally? I don't know if I'll never make it well... probably wake up naked in the bottom of a well for the words I wrote and just walk up to gates of hell ugh... let me re-explain myself....

light your cigarette again i'll try to breathe toxic air like im the one addicted. i found myself in the flicker of your lighter, only warm when your fingers were on me i used to be forest fires volcanoes heat waves now i am the dying ember in your ash bowl. forgive me for wanting to feel your lips against my skin ice melts in the presence of heat, and you could never be less then me. cigarette breaks are temporary but the black in your lung is permanent. you lit me with the intentions of putting me out but I promise my flame will kindle every time you try to exhale me out

More than a Cigarette Break
There is a girl, a girl so fair With silver eyes and moonlit hair Her skin like snow is pale and white She dances in the moonlit night She's singing under the midnight moon It truly is a beautiful tune She is a beauty, she is my queen The most beautiful girl I've ever seen

A Girl So Fair
As I lay me down for sleep, Know my vow I said I'd keep... When grim of dream comes seeping in And cruelest monsters scratch my skin I shall seek safety I've found in you Shielded by a love so sweet and true I promise to fight the vexatious dark And find myself calm with nary a mark. So peaceful sleep, please find me now I close my eyes, heart holding vow

Bedtime Promise
I go out to dinner with a near stranger we sit on the same side of the booth and I think about how you're the only one who knows how much I hate that I drink a drink with ***** and lime and ***** and it almost makes me feel like I know who I am when I'm with someone else I don't think of you often but last night I did I remembered how your arms are the only place where I am not self-conscious I lie next to him on my balcony and there are a lot of stars above us but I'm the only one who notices he is thinking about what I look like naked and I'm counting how many hours of sleep I will get if he leaves before 2 there is not an absence of feeling, just a different kind than I'm used to he touches my hand and I smile in a way that doesn't feel forced I spend a day with a near stranger and realize there is so much he does not know about me, so much he doesn't care to like how I got my nose pierced at 14 or the amount of time I spend in the mirror each morning picking myself into something I can carry only semi-confidently he only learns I can't ride a bike when he asks if I want to he has no idea that my blonde is shielding a deep brown or when I got the freckle above my lip or the inch long scar underneath my chin he doesn't care and that's okay when he leaves we say I miss you but in a different way than I'm used to it is not a pain swelling to be morphined nor is it a pulling from the gut but instead it is the ever temporary desire to fill the excess lonely we say I miss you and still mean it but it is not the missing that a body feels for a phantom limb I am with him now and probably will be again but moving on doesn't mean I don't miss you it only means I'm trying not to just because I'm all right doesn't mean I don't wonder how you are I can still be happy with the existence of a quiet ache but yes I do miss you, I will until the day I can sleep without having to count sheep I will miss you even if there are no stars in the sky to remind me I don't think of you but last night I did the moon was too bright and I was the only one who noticed

Moving On Doesn't Mean I Don't Miss You

what you fear most
What's one day in the grand scheme? mistakes branding bland dreams realities - future and past halves of me split personalities splitting these arteries the artist in me scavenging what I can to understand, why smile wasting time tasting wine erasing mind until basically blind - OTC's won't assist this OCD thinking of insanity, no it won't be me I refuse, to let this fuse run out of room - I say, Let it burn. https://soundcloud.com/the_mjv/ogcjm .

O.G.C.J.M.
The sky was open, solemn and bright. My intriguing mind wondering what would happen next. My Life, elements of so many hard times and frustrations Charging my Soul, crushing me sometimes In a silent root, played with invisible hands. I guess the World is a strange place, For each one of us, a different meaning. We fall like the rain, each drop from the sky We stay here, we grow, we laugh, we cry Then one day, we return We go perhaps to the same place A place we call Home, near the stars... In this moment it´s raining as when I born After a moment of Pain and Joy I wish this brings a beautiful journey In this great Universe.
