American Hi, I'm Ari. I'm 19 years old.
I am a reflection of your creation A fruit bared from your inventive womb My inimitable genetic make up parallels my life story A puzzle never debunked; the apple never to consume I am a reflection of your creation Unfortunately every mirror is bound to fog I am the bridge between heaven and earth Let your decision be the inevitable epilogue I want to be a reflection of your creation With frequencies and wavelengths understood Every genetic makeup contains your fingerprint Intelligence was blurred but wisdom was good

Key to Life
My mind takes it reserved spot on the tip of a turning top Am I the one causing it to spin? To stop and think puts pressure on my assumptions But maybe I should instead look within Whats in the bag? Whats in the bag? An army of misread metaphors A 4th dimensional space, is mine to taste But only I can open up that door I grew strong legs to carry my bagagge To leave it behind wasn't even a thought I tried to outrun my problems, cupid and God But its love itself that has me caught I took my reserved spot in the chair of an open mind I didn't want to look in the mirror because I was scared of what I'd see A flawful analogy of pure sensuality And it turns out that I actually love me.

The Road to Self Acceptance
I've always been good at it Such a promising talent We must not speak of this lustful secret Be chaste, be a lady, be silent But when you slide within my walls When you whisper your desires When you slam into my being All my morals begin to expire My eyes darken with malice My soul flickers with sin My thoughts shutter with such kink And I would do it all over again

Transformation
I’ve never been one to stop and look at the clouds Until you became the sun that rises and shines behind You never know that you’re missing something until you find it Anxiety pulls at my attention but it’s you that steals my mind I see you in the atomic ribbing of strawberries So humbly sweet although having every reason to be boastful I smell you in the subtle mist of coconuts Delicate and dainty but so alluring that I crave a nose full Your eyes tell a million stories with every blink I could read them like an English major’s passion I see a lot of you in my reflection I could wear everyone else’s smile but that’s not my sense of fashion The words slip my grip when trying to describe this sense of déjà vu I get a familiar fulfillment every time our eyes lock Consume me with your aura and devour me with your vibe There’s no limit to us when we’ve once lived off the clock

In the Stars
I lied there tainted with corruption You took what little bit of purity I had left with force A red stamp of fright across my face An amber alert sent out for your remorse I was numb with disbelief My helplessness was your trophy of pride A tear never shed and a word never screamed But internally I had wished I would’ve died Gruesome scenes of aggressive behavior Dreams of running away The light was never shed on your disgusting actions And I gather myself from shattering ‘til this day Move on from it like a storm over a garden Put a brave face and let them believe it’s true I still flinch when someone is lying next to me You’ve cracked my porcelain but I forgive you

Your Victim
I can taste your chastity Tipping on my tongue as I watch Consumed by your virtue Baffled by your grace How? How does one breathe with such innocence And laugh with no worry I heard you were sheltered Its easy when you've been born in silence Watch my eyes as I ponder Egged on by your serenity Why? Why do you speak with white letters And laugh with no worry

White Letters
There are periods at the end of sentences that call for silence My whole life seems to be that pause Because when I wake up I seem to always feel alone Whether to not even try that day is a simple coin toss Everyone sees me as being so strong But the strongest people are just better at hiding it Because when I look into the mirror I am not pleased My pride is a gag and I am biting it When you pour water into a cup there's a certain extent before it becomes overflow Allow me to be the silhouette of a porcelain glass And my unexpressed emotions have no where to go But it's never been a trend to admit you're scared Scared that you might turn on yourself Because sometimes I feel like something takes over Covering my mouth from crying for help

Dead Silence
There have been thoughts that have popped up in my mind every now and then like a dead beat dad on holidays. There have been break downs that I hide in the fabric of my pillow case as it muffles my whimpers There have been hidden cries for help that won't dare move past my quivering lips to keep on my mask of "I'm okay" I'm not okay.

Saying Goodbye
As you walk the streets blind to the truth Does money sculpt your perception We see a struggle to fight through the day You see laziness painted with your deception Levels of hierarchy built by the bricks of immortality Paper defines how long one lives unable to afford a decent insurance plan Taken for all we got but hated if we don't forgive How long will it take until justice affects the top of the food chain How long until an eviction notice will be on their doors We all know the IRS wont ask them for overdue payments But one will listen if its written with, "Sincerely, the Poor"

Sincerely, The Poor
As I sit here and tear up And scrounge around through old papers Struggling to find the right words I've only came across a few: Your love makes me Full Drunk Hungover And back to the start The craftsmanship God went through to make you Is just.... magnificent art Your tongue slithers to enunciate words But I can't get past the sight of you Your heart glows brighter than your smile My personal sunlight, molding me anew Your love makes me Laugh Cry Scream And a bit sublime Your love elevates me Inspires me Enlightens me Remixes me All at the same time
