has your life really been that easy? that you can spout your **** and expect no consequence? has it been that easy? that you really expect no backlash when you say those things with a grin on your face? has it really been that soft? that no matter what you say or do you will never know pain again? i held my tongue this once but next time i will prove to you that not everyone has had the luxury of forgetting hell.

empty days                       empty or dead empty head                             that im not empty eyes                            alive and empty or dead                 that i am still eternal void approaching              me no reason to stay                   reminded only anger and sorrow              warmth and as the dark closed in        and her I closed                               was blinding my                                       and her light eyes...                     by her shrill laughter         but was startled awake

Dear World. Hello. I no longer wish to be so wrong. I have taken my pills and sung my song. So please mend my heart. Wash my troubles away and Grant me another start. I promise to do my best I now know not to trust. ... I'm sorry. My bitterness still remains. I know we can't restart. I'll just swallow my tears. And write another poem. Best Wishes, Max

To Whom It Concerns
You taught me so much. How to hate without breaking. How to lie without crying. How to sleep without resting. How to scatter the contents of your mind against the wall by your bed each night like rainbow glass crashing into rainbow splatter dripping into rainbow puddles flowing into black cracks. How to ****** without killing.

tragedies
Hey, Look! Blue cloth pants with yellow vertical stripes and glittery disco boots! Joy and dance in concrete club halls! 30 foot tall glass tanks filled to the brink with tiny white pills, turn the tap, they go clack clack clack on the floor! Bass boosted booms burrows beneath bones, flesh feasts on fear, and fights for fickle infatuation. Saliva drips between the beats, two hundred souls makes a swamp and their legs get tired from sloshing through the fluids. Outlives the sun and makes love with the moon, their friend, and anyone to everyone else. It's a party! A party!

I stay home.
Cobwebs Stagnant water Lightless Hopeless Useless The mere sight of it made our angels above recoil in disgust. A festering wound that poisons the well. Meandering procrastination. Birthed hate and envy. It is rot. It is decay. It is a promise. It is inevitable. It is home.

Dissapoints again
Her words pour like gasoline And my fist impacts the brick wall in the moonlight Bone shards splinter like firework sparks Sets her words alight, they stick to me My life is approaching its ****** A Gunpowder Crescendo

Explosives
Inspiration is like coming home to a stairwell full of men in white hazard suits, carrying down furniture from upstairs, and a strange smell in the air. You might not always understand it or even like it but if it makes you write, then whose to say that the buzzing of flies in the stairwell is wrong. But the smell lingers for weeks, and the buzzing quickly loses its charm. It sickens you, and brands a curiosity in your brain. So one night you creep up the stairs and find the door slightly ajar. The smell turns your stomach. Its white, static, sweet and rancid. Your trembling hand push the door open. The hallway is empty, except for a long dark brown doormat. Its cold and dark, the windows are open, and theres a faint whiff of cigarette smoke coming from downstairs. Its another neighbour, the purple haired girl who spends every night arguing with her boyfriend. But the apartment is empty. No corpses with sunken eyes or pools of blood on the floor. Just a sickly stench and a curiosity sated.

Rambles
You loaded your gun with Ruin Pointed it at the crowd and found me Blame my luck, but you pulled the trigger. The scars you left on my body is lesser yet than the taste of your Ruin on my tongue. And I couldnt have asked for a better mentor to teach me the all the subtle intricacies of Hate. For everytime I am reminded of your taste I hate hate hate Hate Hate you Hate me HATE every single one like you and me. And with your gun you blew my soul to bits and left me in Ruin.
