making my jumbled words into collective thoughts
There are monsters under my bed, I swear it’s true If you don’t believe me take a peak, but I wouldn’t if I were you They are more terrifying then any alien, vampire or werewolf pack Even though they wouldn’t eat you as a snack They don’t have three heads, green skin or multiple eyeballs But bones can be seen through brittle orange skin and sleek hair, skyscraper tall The heaving chest of a Grinch size heart can be seen, beating almost too slowly Their beady bloodshot eyes stare at my pale skin, knowingly I hear their long nails violently scraping on my floor, haunting the room in which I slumber Those bloodshot eyes and glowing nails wish to tear me from limb to limb, with a plunger I prevent this terrible pretense by giving them what they desire the most Dishes of raw meat, garnished with flies, are found under my bed; since they infatuate the gross So they will not touch a pretty little hair on my head But, it is so that they glare with jealous revenge, under my bed They rely on me, and I must keep them satisfied, for my safety They have a fear of being not alluring, very desperately they rummage through food, even if it isn’t tasty These scrawny creatures reflect a zombie, who was once radiant with beauty Demanding statements and propelling attitudes falsify their faces, simply they are snooty. Their beauty would entice many girls, I know Maybe others would see the reflection of their ugly souls, and realize what their future may in toe These creatures are after me, because I’m not like them In this twisted universe, I am the alien

I never knew those glossy eyes Could tell such great lies to me I never knew the promises you told Were merely screens to the lies that were to unfold I never knew that silent banter Was a way to conceive acts, to reveal an enticing enchanter I never knew I would question love And think all we had was not pure, graceful and simple, like a morning dove My only sweet escape from this, was the swirled twilight That formed between the glowing horizon and the tranquil skylight As I sat there on the tethered rock I came to a conclusion that I might ironically be mocked for In general life is a conspiracy of activities to deceive So join the crowd, before the game is complete Or in return, for being so humble and veracious, life will equal to a momentous defeat

Deceit
Love in her heart Pain in her eyes And shaken hands… Her stomach flips, her chest heaves, and then the roll of heavy tears Stream down her face, cold and slipping away… The pain exceeded all the calm within her soul And swallowed her whole It hit her harder than any bat, chain or rhythm She was alone And now she must stay afloat on her own

I wonder if you are going to whisper the same thing until it’s parts Tither meaningless on the floor Once the pieces are unspoken They mean the most and Once they are purged, the meaning becomes diluted So be witty, clever and tease the playful words unspoken Or my heart will be broken Into pieces, down the same doorway The silhouette of the significantly broken Will be found Faded On the floor
