Im an apiring spoken word/poet looking to build a following and find others that also share my passion.its hard to find others that enjoy poetry day to day but this looks l / like a good place.
Why do we leave the womb? Why Why do we go astray into depths unknown,Only to come back with a diffrent understanding Of what you already knew And isolate ourselves if all we seek is company It is the knowledge the wind wispers just out of reach So we misinterpret it all but ask yourself If a theory is tought in an institution Does it make it any truer? Truth should be defined individually by what the heart feels Not by the ideals of your peers So the real question is   What do i find true? Does one ever find the purpose in there existence Or do wift like leaves in the wind In a way we're all like waves Taking of in a burst of fury But as soon as we reach the shallows we fall And crash against each other, The only shure outcome is that we'll return from where we came And all that remains is the calm.

meditation
Your fallacies were let known So as your walls crumbled so did your facade and as looked through the rubble and dust, I saw a child  Its only possesion a golden whistle This child stould for hours in the sun, But no matter how much the whistle shone   He was never found And for the days that he attempted to be heard   His s.o.s. was to no allure And so i witnessed this bieng build a shelter of flesh,and once in he seldom came out But the living become animalistic once enclosed  And society does not take kindly to beasts.

beasts
Tired of the sleepless nights Thinking if my percieved reality is a reflection Of my desires Or if we stand here flesh and bone Paranoia making fresh wounds of the scars left... From the last time i adored false idols But the song of the siren drew me from the night And it fed me the nectar of its fruit So her venom now flows through my veins My every thought laced with the poison whoms cure lies in the sirens cloak.

false idols
Your glare weathered my coccoon Leaving pores within my walls So with each palpatation  My thoughts bled out i remain an empty shell till U return the substance sustaining ur ego And refrain from abusing my                       Fervor

gaze
Its dangerous to believe in the illusion That is cast by your ego and altered by the masses You buy the clothes and drive the cars You sip the drink you **** the girl But in all this  Where are you? When did you lose sight of your dreams When did you stop learning about yourself and where is your happiness Not the alcohol induced smile of consumed ignorance  But A moment of genuine gratitude of life Society has lost its heart, too afraid to feel again So they masquerade as monsters But i know these beasts well And they also bleed when wounded The stains will wash away  but the metallic scent lingers

conscience
Within creased paper lie binded souls Firmly held within my clutch , Ideology hemorrhaging as non-opposables only bend so much. Thirsty i reached for a swig of your cup  Open palmed  This vessel mishandled  the contents soaked through bedrock Its remains a drink for the decrepit.

morals
ive unearthed all my demons They glare at me with no face Those sins carried off with redemption Shall my death come of your embrace?             How will i go? fiery eyed the tale unfolds All these lies Recurrent truths of who you once were Reminiscing on the times we weren't a slumber Now i remain outnumbered Sitting on the edge looking down at the well Asking my cigarette if i should go for a swim
