All it took was a glance And a single choice in time A moment that would linger An emerging paradigm All it took was a taste Reality crumbled at my feet I had never known a drug To be so bitter and so sweet All it took was a touch And I forgot my name Words dissolved on my toungue With only you to blame You left a mark Like a fossil in my soul For I'm forever changed Not broken, but not quite whole

All it took

All it took was a glance And a single choice in time A moment that would linger An emerging paradigm All it took was a taste Reality crumbled at my feet I had never known a drug To be so bitter and so sweet All it took was a touch And I forgot my name Words dissolved on my toungue With only you to blame You left a mark Like a fossil in my soul For I'm forever changed Not broken, but not quite whole

Apologies are tricky Trying to tell if someone's sincere See, an apology is just words Unless there's emotions kept someplace near.

I lay myself upon the paper, my bones infused with each line. My brain splattered upon the page Drenching the words with my mind. These stories drip with my blood, whose rhythm is synced to my heart. Ink sealed by my kiss. My soul in the form of art.

One in the same

I lay myself upon the paper, my bones infused with each line. My brain splattered upon the page Drenching the words with my mind. These stories drip with my blood, whose rhythm is synced to my heart. Ink sealed by my kiss. My soul in the form of art.

I don't need more. They tell me I do. More likes, more money more friends too. Society thinks I'll be happy then, More clothes, more shoes More power, more men. But more often than not The more you aquire, The more you'll realize The more you desire.

What used to make me happy, Has died and left me here. What once was always with me, Is no longer near. The memory of vibrance, I saw within his eyes, Is still in my head but fades as time flies. I remember back to when I saw the smile upon his face. When the world was in his hands, Now he's gone without a trace. The earth claimed him for her own, Just a body hallowed out Nothing's left of him now A memory, a shadow, a doubt. I too am fading, Slowly slipping away. The feeling of letting go, I do not want to stay. He paved a path for me, Easy and clear before my eyes. I know where it goes, And in front of me it lies. How easy it would be, To take this clear cut route. I'd follow in his footsteps, Be a girl all hallowed out.

Disappearing Boy

I didn't think it would be like this wandering waiting pacing and impatiently stating I'm not supposed to be here. My hands stopped trembling years ago. Separated from the rest Its for the best they say as they force the pills down every day I'm not supposed to be here. Every word confirms my inability to conform Imprisoned physically for in-dependency my mind does not need societies' hypocritical parasitical way of thought. I'm not supposed to be here.

Melting all around you, Blissfully sinking in. Past and future forgotten, And a change occurs within. The peace of simply being Existing here and now, The troubles melt away, If only you'll allow.

Two forces come together, Bringing change and clarity. Razor sharp, crystal clear, A frozen rarity. The air is crisp and certain, White with innocence, laughter rings. A fresh snow and with it, A fresh start it brings. The air will soon warm, Crisp uncertainty unfreezes. Inevitably, muddy earth will follow, For ice melts as it pleases.
