Clarity returned, once a rarity Engulfed in asperity Lost in the shuffle Anything to distance, mind, and feelings Felt the call Turn of fortune Fell into HIS arms Couldn't live anymore in the distortion Had to move subtly Live boldly in HIS path On me too many count Leaving doubt in the wasteland Had to correct my posture So HIS sight in me HE could foster A better ME

Better Sober
You can speak venom on my name But it's no weight on me God has set my burdens free My evolution isn’t yours to own You can claim the scars you put on my heart Your forbidden fruit turned into poison Your poison seeped into me like water A hold on me I've never felt before Stuck when we were apart I couldn’t function without you I absorbed the dysfunction Gave excuses to cover the pain Your words cut me deeper than any weapon I started to wonder why you didn't see me Took every strike, and said it was love Just one look and I was your puppet A venom that froze my tears I had to shed who I was with you Turn my pain into antivenom True love shouldn’t be toxic Naive mistakes cost me I don't wanna live this way So I fled into the unknown To rediscover me

Venom
Harbored so much pain and hate Felt forgotten and alone Even in a crowded room Ready to fall at the hands of fate Knelt at the despair throne Trying to be strong in a world of gloom Life is darkening like an unfathomable sonic boom Healing me on my own But my soul is already in a tomb Silence beyond deafening Prepared my bones for the reckoning Flesh has turned cold, but blood is blazing Each deep breath is like shards of glass shredding my lungs Demons with every remark, scathing Taking in every word as I succumb Living in the Earth's core Liquified metal, my new water source A sudden gravitational force Before I knew it, a voice from above A childlike silhouette The light beaming from their eyes It's time to forgive Hands clasped together, head to the skies You are forgiven The challenge of life hasn't won yet My road for you was strong so early But my child, I had to build you I saw your struggle to keep your spark from fading But you fought to keep your smile through it all Even in solitude, you pushed through You lost faith in me at age 7 Even if you didn't understand why At your lowest, I knew your heart Deep down, it never lost me It just locked me away, until you forgave yourself A heartbreak was your reset button I found you again in the depths of me

The Depths Of Me
Where have you wandered off to It's been a long storm But now we can reunite Here's your cue to get warm I'm booking that flight I smell the sweet desserts The golden air of your history First step on your ground, healed my soul With my skin, your waters flirt My heart is not dwelling on misery The sun beamed so gently, the goal Culture rooted in love Hospitality far above Atmospherically home

My Place
Brown eyes, tinted by the sun Tossing until the tangling is undone Time to rise and be gracious With faith, no entity can break us We rise, live in our purpose Only a few see beneath the surface Trust and be true to yourself Dawn begins to break I stand at the window, awake Tasks of the day floating in my mind Then I feel you from behind Holding tight, your head on my shoulder Squeezing me like I showed her You place your hand on my heart The ruckus from out couldn't make us part Smooth reversal without breaking the embrace Holding you this way is my favorite place From behind, in the perfect place to whisper in your ear Inhaling your essence, sweeter than honey How did I get so lucky

From Behind
Wherever in the world you are I truly hope you aren't far Your safe space is warm A place to transform Turn off the tough exterior The outside world is inferior Creating a world of our own You are no longer alone Your throne awaits

To HER (Mi Reina)
In a world where the minds split Falling into a fiery pit Balancing reality and imagination Mounting up into mounds of frustration The world feels so heavy right now Unsure of which way to move or how Taking facts and drawing them out The various changes leave in doubt Imagination wants to play Control feels so serious right now Torn between what's within reach and beyond Time to sever the bond A battle between sadness and happiness Most days are either-or, and some are both The one constant is that those are the choices There's no in-between without the voices

Heavy
As the sunset drew closer, we decided to meet and give this a go She wore the simplest dress, but it fit her so well Her hair was to the side in a ponytail, with wavy curls to the end The perfect shade of pink on her lips Her eyes were brighter than the candle Her nose had the cutest little wrinkle when she laughed After dessert, we took a walk by the water I held her shoes so she could dip her feet Halfway down the path, she grabbed my hand We stood still just for a moment Locked eyes and kissed I felt like I was floating I couldn't handle the sand beneath my feet She slowly ran her hands across my neck Still locked in a kiss, we both opened our eyes and chuckled We finished the night with a kiss at the door That perfect night, I often reminisce A year flew by We were still riding the honeymoon phase high We spent every day together We make it through any kind of weather One day, if all turned to the worst We exchanged words and actions, reversed them Our first fight changed everything That was the first devastating sting Screaming over one another Not listening to each other When tempers finally cool down We realized it was over, nothing to frown Our last fight destroyed everything Petty jabs on both ends We were supposed to remain friends, Instead, we struck the devil in each of us Throwing unnecessary blame Igniting the treacherous flame Crushed under the circumstances No room for advances A long love has gone in one conversation The one that got away The one I wish I had gotten to stay She was the love of my life The one I was going to make for my wife I never got the chance to ask We destroyed our love before it got a chance to flourish

Never the same Intense Glaring dose of reality Havoc on the brain Time lost Maybe a hidden message from deep within And anguish on the soul Relentless sleep paralysis Endless fright

Nightmare(Acrostic)
There is a thunderstorm in my head Flashes of lightning behind my eyes Rumbling in my ears Rain pouring from my nose There is a thunderstorm in my head Grey clouds surrounding my brain Blood pooling in my mouth Teeth chattering with every rumble Tongue swimming in blood Darkness brewing in my eyebags Lashes falling like ****** hail Eyelids are heavier than an overcoat Pupils so blown Whirling clouds have my brain in a vice A flare of sunlight would be nice Blood-stamped conversation No one sees The voices are screaming No one hears Cryptic sounds near and far No one speaks There is a thunderstorm in my head
