Untitled
Can two be together yet not in a relationship
What if there are two men in a girls life
Yet she can't let either of them go
For one is her true love and one a soulmate
Will she still find happiness if she loses one
Or will she regret that lost her whole life

That night the stars aligned
You forgot to catch them
As we gazed into each others eyes
Lost in this benign affection
Your eyes filled my heart
With whispered empty promises
My decisions leaving you baffled
As the pouring rain in your door step

There are so many beautiful things in the world
Yet we only have two hands and one heart
How do I hold onto you without losing others
I looked for answers everywhere you went
I looked to see if you hid the answers from me
So you could have me as none other than your own
Naively forgetting how much you hurt me
With your beating heart you held me too tightly
Even when I couldn't catch my breath I loved you

I'm too slow too silent
Too, silently admitting to this
Things I never agreed to
Things I never knew to see
Things I never learnt to put away

The angels have fallen to sing
A solemn prose within
We hull our bloated carcass
Back into the sea

At first it seems
Like a pretty dream
Till truth surfaces
Realization dawns
How heavy was the dream
What was its cost
That dream was as pretty
As it was expensive
The daily turmoil
Was what I had to bear
The way I paid
For that incandescent dream

Untitled
My eyes were coal laced stones
Your stare cold and harsh
We thought fate could change us
We believed in true love
Till true colors were revealed
Then was when we saw it all
We realized love was a facade
We had an epiphany of life
The distraught wishes we made
Nothing but empty shells
Souls not in their original home

Untitled
The agony of being buried in your own grave
The terror of losing those you've not lost
The melancholy of being different the odd
We lost our direction and our compass
Leaving our minds to wander the darkness
Trembling alone in this turmoil of anguish
The pain the fear the endless disasters

They say there is really nothing wrong
But then why do I feel this way
If it is all just a matter of willpower
Why can't I overcome
Why can't I just snap out of it
Maybe they are wrong
But maybe I am

People deny my memories
I don't remember anything they said
The confusion is getting to me
I don't know who to believe
I forgot where reality ends and lies began

Untitled
The stars aligned
I teared for their presence
In this hateful world
This never ending nightmare

The silence ranged
In my choking windpipe
I tried to scream
That tumultuous hurricane

The darkness reigned
I embraced their sarcasm
Insults rained down
This is my downfall

My demise

How do you tell people?
    How do you tell them that you’re exhausted  
          even though you slept for 12 hours?
    How do you tell them that you need a break  
     from talking and smiling and simply being?

Our life
Is a dance
Spinning into Winter
Breaking into Summer
Running through Autumn
Rolling towards Spring
It is all about us
Our stories
How we choreograph
Our dance
Our life

My head hurts
Hearts beating like it wants out
From my ribs
It's cages
Even the pills can't stop
The incessant chatter
In my overcrowded mind
I want to scream
To claw at my face
Rip my disfigured body apart
I feel caged up
Just like my heart
I'm a prisoner
Of my mind mine no more

What really is the definition of insanity? Is it confusing dreams with reality? Or having imaginary friends when you are too old for them. Is it listening to your thoughts when engaging in a conversation with people? Or is it having different people replying for you. Am I sane or am I crazy ??

Buried
Clean and free of impurity
The sole goal overriding
A devil disguised as an angel
The reason I smile and laugh
Lies with no real reason
Trying too hard to conceal
The pieces of me that's left
Parts of myself died with time
The weary numbers that fall
Off the body of my weary soul
Buried under my skin
Jul 2016 · 203
Too much
Cold in the brightest days
Shivering in the dark
My bones ached as I moved
Too tired to move on
I have gone too far to give up
After all this is just it
We just amount to this much
What more could I ask
Lost in this skin coated skeleton
Buried beneath daydreams
Lost in my minds warped fantasies

Falling back
Sometimes you just wake up and don't wanna do anything. All your goals suddenly turn to dust and seem like miserable excuses to live. You just want to lie there and waste away. In your head you're screaming and screaming even though on the outside you're laughing too much, too hyper too friendly. No one see's through the facade, no one can see the pain you're in and you cannot let them know... Because you don't know how to explain. That you didn't think too much, they didn't do anything wrong, no one did anything awful to you..  But you're just hurting...

If..
Ashes to ashes, dust to dust
What are we living for
If there is no love here
If nothing will remain
When the end approaches
If not for this moment
If not for this love
I would've given up this life
Jul 2016 · 246
With you...
With you, it's just not the same.
Because,
With you, the stars glow brighter
With you, hard times seem easier
With you, goals are nearer
With you, love becomes real
With you, I'm always here
With you, my life is no longer a blur

I loved you with every breath
A time I didn't know fear
My existence ached for your touch
While holes burnt in my heart

Your sad eyes told the story
A truth I didn't want to hear
My believe for us to be perfect
Was the only mistake

Caged
No amount of assurance was enough
To pull her out of the cage she built herself
For her it was too scary out there
With all the things
That took her down
She only felt safe with her own demons...

Non

When you feel the heat
a cramped up feeling
trapped in your chest
you just want to fly
you just want to love someone
but that torn up feeling
the residue of a failed game
pours into you like a river
no fail no pain no love

Sinner
I** screamed in dreamy wonder
U sent us into waves of frenzy

colliding like stars
Blown apart by impact

WE dived deep into this sea
LIVED our last day with sins

over flowing emotions
Spread like dandelions

WITHIN each breath
SINS cast shadows in us

Buried sessions
Don't think you'd ever understand
The pain beneath my skin,
The hurt that crawls up like guilt
The promises splinted like my soul.
All and all but empty words
I cussed my stupidity,
Hating me for who I was
The failure I made of myself.
Why do I **** up
Why so perfectly
Why anyone, why me.

Unknown
I've folded so slowly into myself.
Tucked emotions into creases,
crinkled corners stained from ink.

Fingertips tingle from the need.
Yet my hands won't gather intent,
my heart just beats,
and I'm here....but I'm not.

I used to bleed through ink,
Now I linger on the edge of verses.
My clockwork heart on the tip of it all.

I buried myself so deeply,
sealed envelopes with no postmark.
Destination void.

I'm not the same person anymore,
sunshine no longer warms me.
Letters go unsent,
remain unopened.

leafs, leaves..
careless children
breaking glass like charm
snowing down on us
little lives led astray
little love given each day
people fly, fail and still
continue to flutter
i cry, flail and dismantle
a sordid mess
of unwanted memories

Tutorial
Caress my body,
as you whisper
Meaningless sweet nothings
into the recess of my
Lifeless lonely soul...

Smile into my eyes,
as you watch
My relentless tears won't dry
falling into the ether
Leaving me blind...

broken ashes
no one could've given a better explanation
the end, was the end, was all it was
i was lost with all my misplaced puzzles...
we have all but forgotten our senses
none left, none lived, no one came out
i was gone all with the other;
just like my mistaken words
those broken sentences.
Heartache wallowed in my shallow mind
where leaves failed to survived
and we all craved to dig our graves...

frost
You said to let go,
though you were the one.
I saw through your words
what i saw was no.
You just let pain run;
running through our lives.
why do people always lie
blinding each of us with ice...

Not just because
My tears never fell
But I still felt it all
My smile didn't fade
But inside I drowned
My compose stood
But the chaos too
My love never left
But I just lost control

I walked out into the rain
It was always me wasn't it
I blamed the same person
It always wrote my name
I was never meant to be
It was an accident was me
I long used up my tears
It was my weakness I cried
I lost because I'm lost
It was my fault I chose to stay

Bedtime stories 11
Sometimes I hear the music
Secretly paying in my ears;
Even when I cannot begin
To envision your presence.

Sometimes I see the stars
Wink at my tear stained face;
Even when there are in fact
No stars in the solemn sky.

Sometimes I feel your kiss
Lingering on my bare skin;
Even when you have long
Closed the door to you and I.

Ice picks
Weeping tears of buried sorrows
You never saw me
Every touch of you a precious piece
Playing on my heart
An endless thread of love and misery
I'm walking on ice
Needles laced with cyanide and lead
Pierced in my skin
Crooked ways and silent entrapments
Cut me from within

Gift or scheme
To you this may spell
A single word
Betrayal
But the honest truth
Is that I'm just
Confused
Are dreams worthwhile
Or they're mere
Illusions
Is this a twisted game
Could this be the
Truth

This theory is one of no meaning
A senseless kind of excuse
Something further than this
Deeper than we can comprehend
An ache a vacancy in our head
Filling the space in this silence
Too loud too vast for us to escape
Mixed into this lust and fear
Our out of sync lives broken dreams
A masterpiece of our miscreations
Oct 2015 · 296
Dust
Needle and thread
flesh and bone
Spit and sinew
heartbreak is home.
Your suture lines
they sparkle like diamonds
Bright stars to light
my confinement.

Why do I
How could it be
I just didn't understand
How can someone
Stay so innocent
After seeing so much
How can someone
So seemingly nice
Contain so much hate
How can someone
with so much life
Die so silently
Life slipping through
My very fingertips
Me not acknowledging

Bedtime stories 9
I cherished our love
All through thick and thin
Through every single one of our quarrels
Yet you waved me away once
Then again and again and again
"*******" you screamed in my face
Before i even managed to forgive
The sting your slap left on my cheeks
As tears coursed down my face solemnly
But indifferently you just walked away
In that very instant my heart shattered
I felt broken into a million pieces
Like an unamendable piece of torn art work
These scars you left a memory of what we once were
Yet you don't see why i said so
Nor why not...

Beauty whispers
You never know what beauty holds
until you see it in little things
The soft curve of someone's chin
in a touch of your finger tips
The warmth of your blanket as it hugs
when you're missing another

You never know what beauty holds
until you see it in little things
A soft breeze blowing as you walk
through old and familiar streets
The touch of piano accompaniment
in the background of a nice song

You never know what beauty holds
until you see it in little things
So the next time you think you know
all the world has to offer
look for the beauty in the little things.

I am Monday
The sky on a rainy morning
I am the sea as it rumbles
The air as it trembles
I am the storm
And the calm
I am a mess
Catastrophe with eyes grayer
Than the smoke
Of the world that has burned down

We determine who we are
By what we do.
The choices we've made
Forever our own.
The flip switch we never saw
Is hidden in you.

Not predestined
Careless thoughts flowing
Like wind scrambled leaves
Our touch of authenticity
All that's needed to change gifts
Snowbeds neatly flattened
Our stiffly programmed minds
Albeit all the talent
Nothing good would reside
Why accept all this chaos
There's always a chance to perfect life

Beautiful lies
Messy streaks
Scattered colors
Wiltered flowers
Lost thoughts
Shattered hearts
Chains on ankles
Broken minds
Unstrung arrows
Creased brows
Fogged panels
Whispered truths
Unseen devils
Fresh plight
Secret hallows
All and all
But beautiful lies

I weaved my web
Around your existence
Loose threads
Ripping tidy fringes
My tired arms
Shaking the fragile net
All futile gestures
obscured perceptions

Pernicious love
My very own words
I prayed & entreated
"Don't leave me, my love"

Yet again & again

I pointed blunt knives
At our chests
Leaving a trail of pain
In my wake

Like soldiers unrecovered
Rushing back in
Pushing both to our limits
Breaking our necks

Our battlefields forever alive
Restless as children
Drowning in compunction
An unending dirge

Revealed
You set are me up for failure
You made me cry in bed.
You pushed my buttons further
Deep into my head

The cause of all this binges
Purging till I bled.
You've hurt me way deeper
Than I've ever slept.

Now I'd become a *****
Flawed broken and bad.
Like those broken hinges
We couldn't quite put back.

I'll crawl under the covers
When alone and scared.
Now I've seen the monster
Living inside my head.

The first day is harsh
I haven't found my way out of the marsh
to the ocean
The sand covers my feet now 
Yet I'm alone.
I remember none that has happened
sleeping painfully
All those emotions I believed
Now where am I? 
I'm stranded, alone
Days turn to weeks, months to years
How long have I been
Am I even alive?
If this is my punishment
What is my fate
My blood was red
Now it turns blue.
I was happy
When I thought of you
I barely remember a face
A smell, a touch.
I miss my family, I miss my face
I can't see them
they think I've vanished without a trace...

I was Stupid
It wasn't you I wanted beside me,
It wasn't anyone in particular.
It wasn't anyone at all
It was the feeling of love,
Of being loved and taken care of.
This feeling is what I wanted,
To pin down and fall asleep
With its legs slung across me.
This longing has become need,
The need to feel any form of love
In ****** comfort and this security.
The need makes me stupid.

Conflicted Love
Words were all but words
What you never said;
What you said to me
Curses under your breathe.

I opened up my heart
You tore it apart;
Said I lived in fantasies
Bound to turn to dust.

I would fall to the deep end
You wouldn't even help;
Screamed till I was spent
And you just laughed aloud.

How true
I've wandered,
The streets.

In my own,
Bubble
I've walked till
I'm spent

I've scaled,
Mountians
None believed,
Nor saw

I smile and lie,
They think
It's all true,
This show

I want to go,
Back home
And stay there,
Alone

In a place,
Where isn't one.
