nothing more than a dim light
Seven thousand miles away from home In a place of goldsoil and honeyfur She's holding Death in both hands No last words Just agony Seven thousand ways to die And she still can't decide Which one would hurt her parents less

European Summer
its 2am and i don’t know if I’m drunk but the green light in my room keeps showing me your face and I’ve never even held a liquor in my hand which makes me realize that you've held it all the time and made me drink it till it ran out

I'm Loosing Myself
i wish i could write like you, the poster child of poetry. i wish i could tear apart my brain, seek out all the words worthy of writing, and paint them onto paper like an artist in his prime. i wish i could change lives, mend hearts, and enlighten minds, simply with my words. i wish i could breathe new life, new meaning, into a tragically meaningless string of twenty-six letters. i wish i could be like you, the poster child of poetry. but i'm not. in fact, as we speak, i am questioning where to go with this poem, or whether i should go through with it at all. as we speak, my mind is racing, and yet i can't get a single **** thought down. as we speak, life is continuing in its endlessness; *words are being spoken and prayers are being answered and changes are being made; breaths are being stolen and smiles are being formed and happiness is being spread.* as we speak, *wars are being waged and injustices are being overlooked and hatred is being endorsed; trees are being burned and rivers are being drained and death is being glorified.* as we speak, the world is turning; the clock is ticking; the world is changing. and yet as we speak, all i can think about is you. (a.m.)

perhaps i prefer silence
He was a **** Though he still grinned and smirked Set my whole world in flames Like a vessel of a thousand names "We did it", in fear and suffer he said As tears raced through my cheeks And then I thought He was the one I've always loved

Rest In Flames
Help me.. I'm scared.. "What are you scared of?" I am not much than a dead flower Help me.. I'm scared.. "What are you scared of?" I am not much than a sky without a star Help me.. I'm scared "What are you scared of?" Myself.

Dead Flower
My head is pouring the gloomiest smoke you have never seen And I used to think that my life would end up unseen Like a stone my heart is unbreakable And to feel, I can no longer be able These emotions are scratching my chest Wanting to release themselves from the arrest Sometimes I wish people would care about me But sometimes I don't I wish to tie my rope around the branches And fall as the old leaves fall
