Irish I am a guy. I think, I daydream, and I write. I occasionally eat and sleep in between
I am everything and nothing. A paradox like a devout heterodox. A comparable parable that is indeed fallible. Always walking but somehow still. Forever sated, yet I never ate my fill. Positive, negative, south and north, completely impossible, so on and so forth. Feels like two brains in my head. I feel lighter than air yet weighed down by lead. I honestly don't know what I am anymore, just don't call me human, that I abhor.

Paradox of Entailment
I like you stranger, for you have kind eyes. I like you stranger, for your mouth spits no lies. I like you stranger, for you do not look down upon me. I like you stranger, for you do not think me beastly. I like you stranger, but do you like me? I promise, there is no danger . . . I understand, I shall leave you be.

The Stranger
I cant help but hide that feeling, My soul and life you're stealing. Build me up or break me down, You think I am just your clown. Do your worst, I do not care. Your bull **** is everywhere. You mistake apathy for submission. Your downfall is of your own volition. I may die quietly and forgotten, But your insides are forever rotten. At least in my solitude Ill meet death with peace. As for you, insanity and guilt will never cease. Put me down, kick me out, You think im bad and show no doubt. Starve me, hit me, and yell to be sure. Bury me in the ground, I will endure. At the end of the day, you cannot **** me. You cannot **** me, you cannot **** me, you cannot **** me. Just remember, when you think iv met death, I promise well both be there when you take your last breath

Lame thing changeling
You expect me to be there for you as a close friend You told me you loved this guy, and hoped he loved you too But he did not, and your little heart was broken you came to me, looking for consolation As if I'm supposed to make you feel better I can empathize with you for one reason You broke my heart and didn't give a **** Now for you.... I'm supposed to give a **** Sorry but thats not how this works You feel nothing making me feel horrible Yet, I am supposed to feel something when you feel horrible You act like I am a child that doesnt know anything Yet you will never be loved, because you are a child that doesnt know anything.

....
You are merely a cute ball of nimbus fluff cat. I pick you up and you purr and chirp, and even when I go to put you down you go limp in my arms so I am stuck carrying you. But in this happiness is something truly sad. That despite being a human, the one time I have ever felt loved and wanted was by you, you cute ball of nimbus fluff. Even if it was just because I was petting you. Its still the only time I have ever felt like I was actually wanted.

Doesn't that just beat all?
Sometimes things dont always work out in the end, and sometimes you have to be alone for awhile to realize, that in fact you didnt hate being around everyone at all. Most people never truly appreciate what they have, Not until everything is in pieces on the floor like shattered glass, Do you wish they werent pieces at all. You desperately fumble to clutch a shard in your arms, to hold close to your heart, to remember what once was only to cut yourself up and watch that crimson flow. Better a mess on the floor than a mess in your arms. Your brain spills your heart, and your heart spills your guts. If you show love like that, pretty soon you'll have nothing left on the inside. Next thing you know, you're just as broken and worthless as that fragile glass on the floor. A fool once said "blood is thicker than water." Blood may flow in our veins, but it doesn't keep us together. Something so familiar can still be very foreign yet something very foreign can seem all too familiar.

Love to give, none to get.
The fear of the serpent was and is a mighty man Always in thought, Doing all that he can His life forever, His spirit shall not be trounced His name preceeds him, No need to be announced His enemies consider him the bane of existence But for his crew and his love he will always go the distance In battle he only knows persistence When attacked in dire straights,he shows full resistance His ship his steed, a symbol of death to evil strikes fear into his foes, they know he will go medieval From slaying the mighty kraken in the ocean blue Its beak a good luck charm and its eyes a stew With spear in hand he ran its heart through His aim is unmatched, his throw always true To the trodden a hero, to the masses a god His methods unorthodox and to some maybe odd But to catch his oppoenents of gaurd is his tactic Always surprising, his will is galactic

Fear of the Serpent
Interesting marks upon my arm Nothing natural or sane about it I feel my madness take over my charm The veil of reality is now split None to others, but to myself grievous harm My brain sharp, like the knife which iv been slit My brain and emotions are torn asunder All I can do is lay down and wonder

Devil in my Details
What am I supposed to do How shall I make it through I clench my fist in rage I look around and no one is there A person to hold seems quite rare The stars and planets act as a sage I think too much, It drives me insane Ill sit here alone and in the rain I may be outside but still in a cage

Turbelent Tell
Compose yourself oh little one Expose your thoughts to the great beyond Those who do not understand never will Oppose normalcy and strengthen the bond When you think you have been beat Zen you must be, and keep your calm Then once you take a deep breath Again you have won and are indeed aplomb
