I am who I am and that is a person who is constantly changing. I could say my poetry is a mirror of myself but that would mislead you because every line is full of subtext and every stanza applies to so much more than me.
I'm put to the grind So I turn on the radio to silence my mind, but still I find I'm one of a kind. I cant see my way for i'm ignorant, I'm blind. And my hypothesis based off of this is I'm ******* I am me and like my behavior it can't be changed.

Worn out
I wake up confused rubbing sleep from my eyes. I jump out of bed I walk towards my prize Eye starts twitching god bless me with haste. I stumble out of my room to the kitchen I raced. Opening the cupboard I retrieved my mug, I slam it on the counter with a resonant thud. I pour my beloved coffee now the day has started. I drink another cup too and finally I departed.

Coffee owns me...
We are just sitting and waiting. Waiting for our lives to begin. Our standards are too high. The stories we hear are too grand. It's some days we see our lives are going no where frighteningly quick. So we try and ***** out the "normal" like flame on a wick. We are hungry for adventure and end up starving. I've asked myself numerous times, "Why not me? Why?" I see the same look though in everyone else, I see the "why" in their own craving eye. No one gets a story. No one gets a tale, and the few of us that try only get new tears to collect for lost dreams. You can thank the silver screen for this stigma folks. We shoot for the stars and just look like jokes. So don't keep trying to one-up reality. We're all here for the long run. If you keep on trying you'll end up like me. All I have is a cocktail of confusion and sadness in the cavity where my heart was yet now I place my lack of purpose.

Disney Syndrome
When wars break out its best not to pick a side The thought of not losing, one in which you may confide. Long lasting battle of the real and fake. Is a fight that a side I always will take. Spun lies from words make you a fraud. Worse though is the trust which upon you trod. Those who write dishonest create within a fool. So write with honor, avoid becoming a tool.

Care (10w)
The room was dark, and my screen was bright. Pale hand on my mouse, oh I was ready to fight. "Welcome to the rift" the game had began. I bought my first items, and to my lane I ran. I made some bad calls, but the team had my back. The seconds passed us by, the deaths started to stack. Forty-two minutes in, neck and neck we stood. An ace would end the game, yet neither of us could. With dragon on the line, both teams vied for power. Fighting ensued and we had won, for their ADC chose to cower.

For the League fans
Ink spills over the void, from it springs bliss. For blank paper may be despair, and the written may be peace, but when the words are being formed, when you are still the creator assembling ideas from the abyss when direction is undecided. That is bliss.

Organizing Ink
I can put words on paper, They fit and they rhyme But I am not truly a poet There is no definition Yet still I am not. I am not a poet And I will always fail For the same simple reason Beliefs can be a poison.

Beliefs can be a poison.
Often Mistaken are love and lust. Bet on a heart, but only to bust. Love isn't common. In short, a treasure. So praise it as more than simply a pleasure. Lust is for fools and ****** desire. A state of dread is all you'll acquire. Now defined, keep them apart. Or find later on a lonesome heart.
