who will smother your soul? / -m.k.
i nourish and swaddle a terrifying loss inside of me. feed it when starved and pretend its evil isn't being projected in front of my biased eyes. unsatisfied. deprived of the will to push something out of my throat, a whimper. an amber spotlight directed in a lovers' eye. a deeply exaggerated mood. it's false manner suffocating the enlightenment that comes from being brave. i will be brave. brave for the perpetual satisfaction of a wave slapping a wet shore, an infinite amount of sunrises and sunsets. i will be brave for the last breathe to scrape out of a once living being. i nourish and swaddle a terrifying love inside of me.

nourishing a monster
You'll never know... When you'll be head over heels The most enchanting feeling in the world Your unknown desires, it reveals A current in you will endlessly twirl You'll never know... When happiness fills your heart Having a precious bundle of joy in your arms You'll realize in your life, he's the most important part Not forgetting, he'll make the best morning alarms You'll never know... When your heart will be scrunched Like a ball from a piece of paper Feels like your chest is being ruthlessly punched Your skin peeled off with a serrated scraper You'll never know... When a friend will turn his back Whose hand you held, all these years Intentionally causing an emotional attack In disbelief, you gather invisible tears You'll never know... When you'll be caught in an unexpected plight Daily reflections occur, due to lack of wisdom To ease your dark path, you yearn for a ray of light Nothing much you can do except to crave for freedom You'll never know... When the time comes, you might bleed to death Tears will flow drowning your skin As you breathe your last breath You wish you had more time to atone for your sins

You'll Never Know...
my whole body was screaming at me to go dance in the rain to let my skin get soaked to let my clothes cling to my frame i wanted to feel the wet leaves between my toes i wanted my wet hair to cling together in certain places that would never cling together again, to twirl around like i was a ballerina or a lost little girl finding something she has always been looking for i simply wanted to let my body be controlled by nature and not by man but as soon as i made up my mind the rain had stopped someday i will dance in the rain and i will forget everything.

to dance in the rain
I met a genius on the train today about 6 years old, he sat beside me and as the train ran down along the coast we came to the ocean and then he looked at me and said, it's not pretty. it was the first time I'd realized that.

I Met A Genius
Sad. and it comes tomorrow. again, grey the streaks of work shredding the stone of the pavement, dissolving with the idea. of singular endeavor. herds, the herds of suffering intelligences bunched, and out of hearing. though the day come to us, in waves sun, air, the beat of the clock though I stare at the radical world, wishing it would stand still. tell me, and i gain at the telling of the lie and the waking against the heavy breathing of new light, dawn shattering the naïve cluck of feeling. what is tomorrow that it cannot come today? -Leroi Jones
