You must stay drunk on writing so reality cannot destroy you. / -Ray Bradbury
I still think of you every ******* day The sight of you weeps over into my eyes I spin the record fighting the demon dwelling up inside My stomach twirls and my lungs clutch And I can't help but think how horrible I am Because I now have someone who makes it all easy Makes the days float by like he shifts time and stops the meaning of- and I can't help but ask myself why you still are sprayed into my ******* eyes I am so ******* tired of this feeling. It breaks down my barrier and cuts to the bone So deep that I've lost myself because I've accepted that it is over But my heart can't seem to forgive you, or forgive myself - For everything that I became when you flaunted your teeth and closed the door And ever since then apart of me has been dead- And for that- I still ******* hate this feeling that overcomes my entire being every time I am reminded of you. Cynical ***** I have become- I honestly just no longer give a **** Not even about this ****** piece of scribble- I guess it is a good thing it is summer Adderall, ******* Marijuana, Tobacco The record no longer soothes the numbing feeling And Radiohead only screams back your name. **** you and this ******* feeling.

Aching
Here I am back to this lonely hole, an empty white page it is so comforting, so familiar yet I cringe at the pain and the throbbing memories that pump through my veins and rebuild themselves I've wanted for so long to be loved like no other, No comparison, no second thoughts No doubt Only love I've longed for someone who understands without the whisper or scream One who seeks comfort in my silence One who grasps how contagious and infectious and how ******* destructive my mind can be One who understands the duplication of these cancerous thoughts that lurk about the sunshine as it bleeds through the window and screams on the radio all hoping for new beginnings and some sort of happiness Changing your never ending path that you continue to walk This path in which I walk has only been filled with traps and holes I fall and get caught, and try to scrape off the dirt and deal with the pain I want to be hopeful and believe in something more, something so much more than these bitter disappointments I tell myself not to dwell, this is a constant reminder not to constantly acknowledge the ghosts that lurk and follow upon the path at which I walk. I tell myself that I have to be okay with walking this path alone That good things come to those who wait, or maybe that too is a trap I am filled with so much doubt, running in a circle like a mouse ignorant of the box in which it is contained constantly running down this never ending path.

Untitled
The drip of the ink mocks the silent screams that are crushed and sink Deep down to the depths of the sea The cold chills to the bone that quivers the structure of my knees It unlocks the vault filled with the stacks Of the harbored wounds That are beginning to make me crack.

Hole
I am stuck Stuck in a world A world in which I do not belong Fish out of water Flopping around Gasping for air Cringing at the light Suffocated by society

Fish out of Water
I fear exposure Weakening towards death An open wound

Anxiety
My heart pounds at the beat of the drum the weight of the stick thrusting against the symbols the vibrations hallowing out my insides weakening the core, releasing the vibrato The strings of the guitar puppet my motion, igniting my being physical but immobile to the sweet sound casting the reflections of the shadows of my soul I stand tall, mocking the vocal stick Numb to the sounds that are screaming and singing deep within my soul The lyrics spit out without effort though are silenced, and chained And composed upon the spinning record

Sweet Symphony
Some days I feel like I do today itching, aching, craving, for something more to be apart of something Something, so much more Some days became a one day the one day I met you and that some day, became the day the day you smiled, melting the days which began to slowly, yet consistently pour into one another Some days the sight of you consumes my entire being your existence grabs ahold of mine twisting and tightening my organs Some days I can’t help but laugh because this nervous feeling reminds me of how pathetic and silly my mind can really be, But you, You have something of mine Some days I can’t explain what you do to me I smile and nod trying so hard to hide and fight the rushing blood that fills my cheeks blooming at the thought of you Some days I have to remind myself to breathe and take each moment for exactly what it is and to not stumble and fall when you walk through that door Some days I question why you, you have such a strong hold on me, a hold that soothes back to childhood of the girls with their secrets, and the boys with their taunts, chasing one another on the playground

Chasing Ducks
Today I am silent and at ease with the lifeless voices that echo through these four walls Today I am comfortable with being alone and facing all the demons that dwell deep within these four walls Today I feel free from all the troubles that life has handed me Today I laugh as I look out The mountains and trees recognize me They smile back as I thank them for their beauty and insight Today I reflect on the past So many lessons, so many obstacles They build the blocks that stand the tower strong but weaken behind these four walls Today I address the present and welcome the thoughts that cloud ones mind They bring about new wonders That only time can unfold Today I dream of the future And all of the unknowns it holds It fills me with excitement and anxiety A fire and ice A black hole Today I am happy with just being free with what urks deep inside of me Today these four walls remind me to take these moments and appreciate ones unique perspective of their reality.

Today
The rain sings as it braces my skin Its sweet, soft touch Clings to my concept of being It rushes over me Hit by a freight train Chilling to the very nerve It pounds to the ground screaming of its existence scrubbing over every last inch of life’s impurities It mocks my heart Down to the center core, Destruction, Innocence Its intent, Its power, unknown-

Rain
She twists the **** of the door the wood creaks of her arrival He glances towards her Questioning her sanity, How could she come back for more? He asked her to leave, She refused He chose to try and ignore the girl who implanted Such a ****** sore That clutched his heart Down to his center core She sobbed at the sight of him And her memories of their explosions, bare upon the floor The memories of holding him, peacefully by the sea shore She stood there Awaiting for what he had in store Deep within his conundrum Little did they know, This was only, The prewar
