Work,
sleep,

Work,
sleep,
repeat.

Work,
Lay in bed
WHILE  YOUR  MIND  
TORTURES  YOU  WITH  A CHAOTIC  DISPLAY  
OF  THOUGHTS  CRASHING  INTO  EACH   OTHER!

Work,
sleep,
repeat.

I see a world in decay
The wrong people stepped up to rise
We’re all just sheep adding to the flock
An I can see the human inside
An I can see the human through your eyes
But I ask where is the line drawn between you and I

I can Envision a paradise
Where everyone’s freed from a wicked mind
Where everyone is freed to truly be alive

But I can never grasp it
I fear that humans can only be defined
By the pain a suffering within and without their own lives

May just be that we’ve given up
And locked our selves away
In the illusion we call “Reality”

You must pardon me for what I say
It’s just the old soul inside
Finally fed up with seeing the world in decline

When I was younger I knew that the tendency would only grow stronger
And as I grow older I know I’ll only fall harder
As I get up I know I’ll be able to run farther
Before I reach my final  collapse
I ask again for forgiveness
this is just me
And my misanthropic tendency

I Got lost in the garden

Not too long ago


Upon my arrival


I found my self a ***

With a beautiful golden rose


I could have loved her maybe

But now I’ll never know


For ivory stone roads

Beckon me to come home


Away from the

Flower potted wardens

That line the fields in rows


This soil wasn’t meant for love

Here no heart can grow


And upon my leaving


I had to bribe the trees

With a fresh bit of snow

The many lessons
That’s she taught me

The first was how
To let her go

The second blessing
She Bestowed me…
Well honestly
I wasn’t listening

(Foolish child)

So that one
I’ll never know

But
The third…

The third one
Struck me
Through my shame
Teaching me how to love
And in turn
The fourth was
How to love myself
All the same

The fifth one
Brought me to my knees
So my Goddess is to whom I pray

Staring

Into the night

I found myself

A stranger

To the darkest

Parts of my mind

Now

Starring back at me

with a million faces

And

A thousand eyes

 

I met a being

Who knows

Hundreds of names

But

still couldn’t

Tell you mine

 

It told me

Many stories

With hidden messages

Underlined

With rhyme

 

Sending me off

To fill your dreams

In-between

Your solemn cries

A light meets
A darkness
Hideously
Tamed

A match
That knows
No balance
Only pain

He swoons
At her
Smile

She
Burns in
His flame

Everything
Freezes
To capture
This moment
In a timeless
Frame

In the
Illusions
I tried to stay

For
In gilded
dreams
The torments
Slip away

When peace
Comes
The chains
Will sway  

Leaving
The soul
A million
Ways to
Masquerade

So I ask

Asleep
Do I
Remain?

I know
I’m not
Needed out
There
Anyway

A lovers tune
Long lost to me

Saytr’s play their
Flutes but I can
Hear no melody

And when tossed
To sea
The sirens songs
Have lost their
Lustful luring

So Apollo
I ask if thee

Why does the
Muse forsaken me

Perhaps the gods
They seek
An offering

So I’ll bleed
My blues
Under the lonely
Oak tree

To ease my ears
And find that
Missing key

Then in golden hues
The answer illuminating

I was never without
The tune
But
The heart beat

We hide away
In fantasies

Where sweeter
Sins taste
Like butterscotch
Candies

To compliment
The bitter truth
Of our Malaises

But do we really
Know what
It means

When ducking
Away from
Bashful daydreams

My mind claims
To be the master

So chain me near
The pastor  

When Asking god
For help
It fills me with laughter

For I know in this
Moment
It really
doesn’t matter

I’m holding my heart
In my hand
And it’s only bleeding
Out faster

The only thing stopping
You
Is
You

But hey
I’ve been there too

So used to the pain that
Without some sort of
Suffering
You don’t feel
Like you're in
The right mind
Frame

And that’s okay

But some advice
Don’t mind the
Time as it passes by
Because yes it's
True that time
Heals all wounds

Yet What they
don’t tell you
Is that it may
Take an eternity
To get through

So maybe tonight
Go outside
And look at the sky

Do you see the stars?
How they shine so bright?

Well one of them
Is you

And once you see
The only thing stopping
You
Is
You

There’s nothing you can’t
Do

I believe in you,

Feel the need to cry?
Do that too

I understand
I’ve been there too

But remember
We are all
Here for
You

If only
You knew
How brightly
You shined
Against this black and white
World
Through my eyes

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

Depression clouds
Above my head

They swarm

With no one there
To keep me warm

When it rains it pours

And
Once again I’m left alone
To brave
These storms

Hand in hand
We chased
This dance

Gliding across
The fragile glass

I turned to the right
You took your stance

And Within your gaze
I became entranced

Relaxing my mind
to make it last

That’s when I
Opened my eyes
And it came to pass

So lost in the dream
I forgot this floor
Was made of glass…

Find me in the meadow
Sprawled out amongst
The drunken breeze

Where the moon glows
Brighter than the sun
Illuminating the crowded
Landscape where only
Rampant thoughts grow
Freely

And the poet’s flow
Sounds more like
The ramblings of a
Soon to be madman

Crazed by the nature of our
Two fates intertwining
But never touching

Morality shapeshifting
Like the thoughts in my mind

Must be a serpent

Coiled around
My heart
