The Succulent Turkey drew my attention, Beckoning me with its plump figure How could i resist its alluring whispers? Nay! I become familiar with my triggers For its piquant facade May curse my wild tongue In a state like a drunk Cease this at once! I must sway towards reason Yet i overhear the others consume the dead brute Munching on its Crisp outer skin, while sipping on fresh gin O, how plush the meat is! My body trembles Woe to my eyes! Hail my sense As its aroma tempts my stomach into hysteria Breaking my barriers! Halt! I cannot control myself! My hand hovers above the Corpse Yes, It is a feast in the name of Jesus, its point to please us However i cannot continue to over-indulge, i must flee! My reasoning for this, some may comprehend I confess to the lord i am gluttonous Everyday I struggle to cope with my habits Every swallow of good shoves the melancholy down temporarily, Thus, the cycle continues. I witness this day as the birth of Jesus Christ Yet this celebration I musn't take part in.

Gluttony
Lord how do i continue? Thy carries the freight of past horrors and future possibilities, Upon my shoulders Such a sense of disquietude. I may fall due to this Lord of Light! as every step i take on this tightrope, flashbacks of dreadful memories come back putting me off balance! Nay! I must take a step back, or two or fall! Put me out of my misery Lord of mercy! As i wobble on this rope, trying to find my balance How! When their is nothing beyond this tightrope! Lord! All i observe into the distance is fog! the future is bleak for me if i continue on this tightrope! Hail the Lord of Forgiveness! looking behind me i see fog what if i just jump? from this tightrope

Tightrope
It is so easy to take the pills, overdose and as consequence, kills. Yet i am here writing this poem, dissociating feeling beyond broken. I hang on to life like a thread, i may loose my balance the worrying thus spreads. As i wobble, tremble and struggle to find my stability, the thread gets thinner I may fall critically. Who would save me? i cannot look down or anywhere i am bound, To my worries, fears and tears silly hopes, dreams and lies past, present and future.

Through the words you have written, I see a broken spirit Perhaps i could be freinds with your demons? Hear the text through deep conversations As the person you portray to the world is different Writer's man, Carless, heartless, angry and chaotic Yet Writer's man, Your Poems show a beaten man overpowered by his inner evils and addictions. I know this seems bizarre Writer's man, But is it possible i fell for you as i read every line? Our drunk moments may mean nothing to you... But they cling to my memories I must admit, I am broken myself but perhaps we could be broken together? Writer's man, Could i hear your dark thoughts, raw emotions and hug you on your darkest days? Only time will tell

Dear Writer Man
Odd, is it not? Our moments, or am i wrong? Drunk moments turned to love? Or lust? How is it that you cannot see, I yearn for stability Yet here you are, Coming and going? What we seek in each other i cannot tell As we speak slurred words of deep thoughts, that turn to passionate touch Odd, is it not? That i want something wrong? Moments of being a drunk, Can it turn to Love?

What Are We Doing?
"You are obscure!", they tell me For how could one like another for their damage they do not see what I see, distant lover "To hell with those addicts!", they scream due to the crowd not seeing deeper into your minds missing the good parts of you For the way you smile, laugh and stare has me in a daze I look past your nonsensical doings and depression and see what I admire, the good man you are making my heart flutter but how could I approach you in the midst of your intoxity? surely you mustn't remember our moments we have together how sad, yet I still pester for your attention yet I still yearn the love and touch of you but confused as to when you are not straight dear distant lover, how complicated does this have to be? for even this poem seems chaotic

dear distant lover
When i am within your presence i feel completed Perhaps due to meeting in a previous life? For the connection we have i cannot comprehend, As to how similar you and i are... Thus, as we delve into conversations Thy inner vibrations that seep into my aura radiate outwards, Allowing the both of us to reach limitless possibilities To the Tides with it! Thee lets down the bridges thy has built within to free these vibrations But note, O' friend or foe? Nay! This is not a declaration of romanticism But rather a note of what i observe of our friendship? For the innocent jokes, slight smiles and full cries have the biggest impact! O' do ye not see? Hence, i ask of you one thing! To have patience with such a being like me for i am only human, To grow with me as we both develop into reality, To remember the feeling you have whenever we see each other. Dear friend or foe? When we distance i feel incomplete Perhaps due to you passing away in a previous life and leaving me behind? For the connection we had creeps upon me within the night, Reminding me as to how similar you and i once were

Dear freind or foe?
O! did they not see? How our energies came to be when together or perhaps how, in the midst of the crowd i noticed thee? O? How did beloved not perceive, that the combing of thy hair with thee's soft hands had thyself in a damsel like mess! or how, Thou spoke the language of alluring thistles to make my spirit chide itself once alone due to bewilderment O! You bathed me in in your cunning romance As i heard others speak truth of your Juliet How did i not see? Out of darlings mouth comes out "mine".... concerning another! O, Why did i helve unto your nonsensical doings? While skinny love was away dreaming of a Shakespearean play But i heard from the whispering of others you were finally tamed Fool!

Did you not see?
Thrice these emotions have appeared In the space of three minuets Twas' a jolly day Until the trigger came Three O' clock it was, Thy facade dropped Being consistently gay for three hours, is too much to bear upon my damaged soul Three tears dropped, while the third insult made itself known in thy thoughts However, being borderline, three more emotions came up hate, contempt, joy disappointment, stress, shock Then did the clock strike 15 Hours past 10 On time did my third mental breakdown appear

Being Borderline
To my knowledge there holds three parts to a story, The truth, Theirs and your own However how may i distinguish between the tales, to search for the objective reality. I reason, the accounts that have been shared to me, One contradicting the other undoubtedly, my mind shadows with subjectivity, Holding perceptions of people i thought i knew. Though, no one knows not the secrets people hold when alone, the thoughts and actions they silently ponder upon Yet we do not notice the facade one puts on when entering the outside world. Thus, do we really know what is and what isn't? when everything is and isn't? So, What is the probable conclusion? When one side of the story claims absolute morality, but another mirrors? "He ***** me in the marriage and forced my tongue closed" yet, "She pinched our baby for my attention and manipulated me into the marriage by having babies" But, from a third party, "She did not care for none but herself and would go to any means necessary" Hence, when questioned by each, contradictions begin, one word against the other. But the majority do not know the effect it has to my mind, As the paranoia stems deeper and my depression takes over.
