Take life one day at a time.....and yes I dream of the zombie apocalypses
And the philosopher asked what is time? It’s what we spend our lives trying to fight Yet it’s what we will never escape. It’s a drive to do better, bigger, more To create and procreate So that your mark might be left on time After death it’s the only way we can continue to live Within memory. But time diminishes all Because all is ephemeral Memories Mountains Memories of mountains. Time is creations vice. On the cosmic calendar Humanity has only lived in the last second Of the last day of the year scale. Is it likely we’ll live any longer? Is this what we ignore? To get ourselves out of bed every morning Because we realize that actions make no difference in the scheme of things That our exsitance doesn’t matter to time. But then why do we live in regret? Why do we live limited? Is this how the stars feel? Like their existence is so small in such a infinitely expanding universe. Is time real for them? Or is it just an illusion of our own demise? Time is the great equalizer Whether we are what’s good or bad in the world Time will find a counter for us. But what happens at the end? Is there an end to time? Or does it expand with the universe? What if out of the infinite number of universes One singular universe achieves equilibrium in it’s end Yes the end of its infinity. Does this mean creation triumphs over time? Does this signify the end of time? Do we return back to nothing? To a black hole? Is time then reborn from this lack of existence? Does this process infinitely repeat? Time is a **** She screws everyone She is confusing and beautiful Time for us is us, our lives Then the philosopher said” I only wanted the time you could have just said 2:40” Moral of this story is proper grammar saves time

Blank pages and blank walls follow me begging to be written on "Give us art!" But I have nothing to say to them so I walk away . But they call anyway . Pressured I pick up the pen and begin to write. Unsatisfied still when I'm done I step back... as they read they realize what I wrote isn't poetry, its insanity. So they shout, they scream and still they follow me until I paint lies with words and print them deep in the cracks of the forgotten yesterday to fill the blank space.

Blank spaces
I slammed poetry like a door to hard... and with it came regrets. My mother yelled at me given I had broken the glass that he stepped in that made him cry that torn a bit from my heart that made me guilty..... and I am forever guilty

Glass door
***** this false illusion of hope **** the promise I made cause you may not realize it... but I'm back in the middle of the street laying down drowning the conspires out with the loudest music I own but even that won't do.... my mind buzzing with lies my chest literally hurting from the stress and adrenalin gasping for air that seems to have dispersed away with you I'm losing grip losing focus cause tears that should be fuzzing my vision are once again aren't. I can't keep our promise.. You kiss my scares in the aftermath and assume like it's still not going on..... but even you now don't notice... you can't look past my kiss... the falsehood I wear with my smile. The fact I can't ******* read or write anything properly with out a check The fact that this poetry is **** The fact that this place is no longer a sanctuary for me. I took six-teen pebbles out I'm purging the chest pain stops the buzzing subsides the music I stop.... but then the car horn wakes me from the daze and I realize....tonight was a bad idea it exposed my small light world of fire' and her blissful one of blood I took you to my second safe zone but I don't trust you now.... what to do, what to say is this a price I wanna pay ? questioning every word you say ...even the things of beauty...that made me fall at first anyway NO yes? This is my goodbye to this account..... see you in another life ? or maybe on a especially good day if I see one again. winter is here.

The proplem with discoveres
How do you tell someone how you feel If you don't know the contents of your own heart.. if you've lost track of the tattered soul you've been dragging for years. If they're so much better at it then you... you feel like what you say will never own up to the art coming from their heart that rolls of their tongue. The beauty they put to words   makes your breath stop and your eyes flutter... then your heart begins to melt like butter. You stutter and stammer and feel like an idiot after but at least you can say your a happy one.

What's held within the cork
You don't notice when I sit in the dark and ponder or when I use the light you gave me to engrave a mark. Your just out there again...mind but a wander and you didn't notice that I came home at dawn but how could you...your where 'out' and I cleaned up after you, like a obedient pawn. The voices in my head have started to shout. and you don't notice I dig through my skin in search of a soul. But no one can ever look through my fictitious grin cause then they'd see this massive hole. You don't notice that I do dare wonder if you even care that I'm inches from a sunder. You don't notice your own hypocrisy you spit in my face. Your finite ideas hold a twisted policy that stings like mace. You don't notice that when you cry to me, I only feel pity that you still can't keep it together. It's not your fault but, lets face it, childhood was ****** I feel obligated to love you because of a biological tether. But I do notice you love me. Though the theory many have shared is that you could be emotionally impaired. And I worry that I'll do something rash because of the lack of borders. Soon I'll crash cause like you I'm a emotional hoarder.

I can't think of a title...... it's not like I'm typing the bible maybe I'll just tell my troubles to the moon what I say will probably be long forgotten soon. Lost in a sea of more meaningless overly misused words that are repeated by little noisy birds. The words themselves aren't meaningless ,but the people normally behind them don't use them with the intent they actually represent. They use them lightly like the little speck of dust we are floating on in space. The misuse leads to the miscommunication that results in a lot of frustration. Cause the worlds dots have stopped being connected because we've grown to let are youth be infected.... Apparently I've just gone on a ramble.... hope it made sense at least
