Writing is the key element to my sanity. Throughout the course of my life it has allowed me to express myself in a way that I could not express to another person. I hold my very existence to it for without the ability to do this I would have been lost. I appreciate any feedback, commentary and criticism. / / (c) All Rights Reserved.
I didn't even know I was feeling all alone This heaviness of fear That you weren't even near Should have struck me I knew I should have said goodbye But we kept on striding by Knowing there's no future In you by my side I kept trying Thinking that together You and I could make it better But we can't make out something out of nothing I gave you my entire world While you slammed me out of yours This was never going to be something more than just a passing When conversations die The whispers in the skies Tell me you're not really by my side A kiss I once adored Became empty and so cold I didn't shed a tear Once it all became so clear I kept trying Thinking that together You and I could make it better But we can't make out something out of nothing I gave you my entire world While you slammed me out of yours This was never going to be something more than just a passing When we finally said goodbye There was pain across the night But sensed relieve across the skies Another failure to endure Yet I'll make it through once more At least we're both not secretly unhappy

Something Out of Nothing
I knew I lost you When your behaviors different As your calls became infrequent I became indifferent to you The words you uttered to me Felt empty, the love you claimed Felt forced and pained I don't know why we keep playing... These game of lies I'm trying to figure out Why we still stay... Is it the promises we made? I'd rather you walk away. I knew I had lost you When you distanced away When you once told me "we're better off friends" Then you came running Talking about working things out with me When I should have known There's nothing to work on *** the love you claim is empty A mere fantasy you want to play out I don't know why we keep playing... This fantasy of love I'm trying to figure out Why I still stay... I don't want to force you to the promises we made I'd rather we just walk away

Walk Away
You are my smile You are my bliss You are the reason for which I live I chase you down I seek you out Of you...I could never get enough I crave that moment I can no longer seize Expecting fruits From these demons in me You once gave me courage Where now, I'm fueled by fear You feed on my hunger The hunger to feel you in me You are my sorrow You are my pain You are my scars I stare at in a daze You are my calling You fueled my cries You bring that rush From head to spine Down to my toes Right through my core I no longer have control I crave that moment I can no longer seize Expecting fruits From these demons in me You once gave me courage Where now, I'm fueled by fear You feed on my hunger The hunger to feel you in me I love you I hate you There's such a thin line You are the struggle I go through Everyday and Every night

You Are...
I was lost and broken Living in fear Shamed and shackled Left without tears Starved for salvation This painful desperation I’m stuck in remorse Ravaged and torn I’m begging for hope When all the doors seem to close in And the lights start to fade When the muses stop whispering That inspiration I crave When the shadows deceive me And my reflection displays A monster, A demon That’s the man I became I was dazed and confused Didn’t know what’s true Couldn’t see clearly I was torn in two My innocence is fighting But cant break through As the doors seem to close in And the lights start to fade When the muses stop whispering The inspirations I crave The shadows deceive me And my reflection displays That monster, The demon The man I became

The Man I Became
Every time that I try For every moment For every chance I come so close But then lose hope I lose control I lost the hold of understanding All these twists All these turns This jaded curse That I've been handed I've now been blinded... Within myself I find it hard to realize... The wrong I've done Didn't come without a price And now i'm paying With the burden and the guilt inside This pain has left me without sight I want to see I want to breathe I wanna live Without it all Hurting within So many days So many hours So much I've lost By being blinded Within myself I find it hard to realize.. This pain inside is part of everything that I've done I've lost the hope that kept me going every day and night Theres no control all this remorse has got me Blinded....

If I gave you the world You would throw it back Out of spite you'd snap my heart in half You hold the power… To storm over my soul You hold the power To make me whole This is what's in store For the rest of my life The purity of a love That I will never have My heart chose you… And it doesn't want another Even though it knows … For it, you hold no desire I always kept guarded But you broke through these shackles And left me exposed To a hellish storm For this love I hold is the purest of pains Though I keep fighting for your love To come through my way This is what's in store For the rest of my life The purity of a love That I will never have My heart chose you… And it wont give it self to another Even though it knows… For it, you hold no desire

Within my desire Beyond my convictions I feel I have fallen Much more that I've risen With much more at stake now Yet with little strength How will I get to the point to ascend? And to believe my heart will follow Would show my ignorance is bliss I must not deceive myself And dig me deeper into the abyss For today will be the wakening Of my ever hurting soul And in my eyes you all will see The difference that has come in me And in my pain I'll try and be the best person that I can be With this little strength And little hope I will make myself rise once more

To have loved you There was many reasons why... But it's hard to believe That you only get one love in life... So much is missing From this brokenhearted man Its been said that time heals Yet it hasn't begun to start to patch Even though that life has broke it The heart refuses to believe its time to fold it Even though I keep on trying to free it and mold it... The time we had has left its stitches to hold it For every moment though some so pointless... With all the problems And all the cries I still spend all my days and nights... With the very thought of you in mind Trying to rip the stitches you have left inside Even though that life has broke it The heart refuses to believe its time to fold it Even though I keep on trying to free it and mold it... The time we had has left its stitches to hold it

To my desire My dreaded dreams My Fearful sorrows that never leave To my soulless body thats torn to bits I see the darkness from within My sleep devours me Yet I believe The light Betrays me I yearn to breathe The air is toxic the ocean's deep I drown in the bitterness of the sea To the skies of Infinity The heavens of love Here I strip my flesh to you and bare it all no secrets be left untold I fear no more To you I cry For me I mourn Im buried within the mothers womb nourished by her greatest fruits Watching and waiting The Rebirth begins Here I am...a whole new me...

Here I fear What fears bring me I Find a way A way to be Wasted time That gods gave me Lived a lie The lie killed me Reflections found my mortality Deceptions made my insanity I've been cheated out of morality Forsaken Mistaken My Serenity Taken Pray for the way But the smoke fogs the day Thunderstorms showering pain Draining into my veins Feeling it's heat rush Flush through my face Waiting for the silence to break Fear and resistance Are all that's left Reflections found my mortality Deceptions made my insanity I've been cheated out of morality Forsaken Mistaken My Serenity Taken
