I feel this endless pain
So deep within
My soul is stained
Prison bars of memories
My own soul is
Holding me a slave

This numbing feeling
Wont go away
Misery what’s my name?
What’s my name?

Breath purpose
Into my veins
So I can stop waiting
For my life to slowly
Drip D
            R
                 I
                     P
D
      R
            I
                P
              
   Away
So misery
What’s my name?
Tell so the bars will brake  
And take the pain

How much wood
could A woodchuck
chuck If a woodchuck
could chuck Wood

Does the woodchuck even
Desire to chuck wood
If the woodchuck could

Woodchuck go chuck
Away at what you love most
Chuck the grass
Chuck the carrots
Chuck the berries

But don’t Chuck the wood
Even if you could
Because the answer is

A woodchuck would
Chuck as much wood
A woodchuck could
If a woodchuck could
Chuck wood

And I’d hate to see
This woodchuck chucking chuckery
Chuck away at your precious life.
My co worker reminded me of this toung twister and inspired me to write this

I converse with
The voices in my head

They talk slowly
So their guidance isn't misread
I have a few drafts. Not sure if it needs more or if short is better

My mind

My soul

Ink

My life
The

Falling
With Wings spread in fright
The  Angels sing but I pay no mind
Locking away the idea of heavens gates
I rolled the dice
Now Earth becomes
my hellish paradise

I
step into
the shower
The water temperature
turned all the way up
I want each drop to burn
As if to purge my soul
No matter how hard I scrub
I can never wash away my sin
Its stained too deep
Within

What do you write
When your mind is blank
What do you say
When words have left you
I need to say something to relieve the pain
So I’ll tell you

Ah yes I feel better now.
