The moonlight dances on your skin
I admire your beauty through my pen
Your voice is a hypnotic symphony
Vocal cords played like a violin
Not knowing today we would begin
A chance to love but not win

I found perfection standing in the mirror
Soon to find out that mirror was your window

The devils been busy
And his work doesnt come gently
Dreams of driving a Bentley
Just to make it out the city
I'm off to chase my dreams
Now whos gonna chase with me?

Alot was counting on you, you're still deciding who's all plotting on you, i may never understand, we're an unbreakable chain when i hold your hand, god doesn't even understand how cold this world is im steadily losing focus

Ecstasy on your tongue  
We french kiss, you love to share
Lost for the moment where time isn’t real
Whats real?
No idea but we’re searching
Get lost and stay gone
But time never shows mercy
Ecstasy on my tongue
We french kiss, i hate to share
I need to stay lost for the moment where time isn’t real
Where the pain isn’t real, where I’m numb so the feelings i don’t feel
Whats real?
Nothing for now but the thoughts creep
I gotta get lost and stay gone
I can never sleep
Ecstasy on our tongue
We used to french kiss, we used to share
We used to get lost for the moment where time wasn’t real
What’s real?
We used to question through the late night
We used to get lost and stay gone
No time left but it feels right

Up in the sky
Everything's slow
I guess that's what happens
When you mix fine wine
With dro
The 4 Kings sit at the table
Take out the brown for the green
Like the hitman for Martin Luther king
Pour another glass to act like you're fine
But what are you gonna do when you run out of wine?

I remember laying in the grass
Adolescents way to drunk and high
We were out with friends
They were sitting under a bridge nearby
Looking up into the night sky
I turned around and kissed her
She kissed me back and turned around
3 minutes of silence passed and
She said "ive never wanted to kiss someone so much but without wanting ***, ive never wanted to talk to someone but without the words, ive never wanted to be around somebody just to be around him, do you think that's love?"
I looked at her and said if it is love i love you more than anything
My heart was beating so fast
She said "i love you too more than anything"
Ive never felt better
So much brighter on the inside than with any drug ive felt before
And i knew from the moment she kissed me my depression was gone
This was the most beautiful moment of my life
Sitting there with my first real love
With the people i love
In the darkness i love
Under the bridge i learned to love
Smoking the **** i love
Drinking the alcohol i love to hate
But eventually friends turned on me
The bridge got demolished
And she left
All that was left was the darkness of that night, the **** and, the alcohol
I wrote over 300 poems that year
Writing stuff of my young sorry soul
The poems helped me mentally
And the drugs helped me write them
Thats how i became an addict
Now people look at me and tell me im an addict
But im only addicted to her love, these friends, this place, this night
And that's what people dont understand
Im addicted to leaving this world
Leaving this pain behind just a few hours
There's a story behind every addiction
If you speak to an addict in your life
Speak honestly and dont judge them
You'll learn something
You'll learn that this world is a sad little place
And every sad little addict has a sad little heart
Dont judge people you dont feel what they feel

Cypher Aug 2017
Addiction and depression are when a good, hopeful, optimistic, sensitive, beautiful soul
Felt too deeply, loved too fully
And then had the essence of their joy crushed out of them by a world that is frightfully cruel and sad
Its just a sad small human nursing their sad small heart
Escapism addiction whatever you call it is the soul trying to stave off the pain just for a while, just to catch its breath
Seek not to judge but to understand
Addiction.Depression.Heightened.Deception

A series of unfortunate events another story i made up about to be told. A series of unfortunate events now read them unfold...


Not too long ago there was a man trapped in the dark, he was lost. Until he found a lightbulb a lovely path he crossed.This isn't a love story oh no far from it see this man was made of water (
later to find out he had relations with her daughter*). How many gallons you ask eh about six. And everyone knows water and electricity quite dont mix. But they didn't care, purple in the face love was in the air. So he let the water run and she flipped the switch and their love sparked a fire, they were blind in love never once did one of them flinch. Soon the fire spread but they were too busy asking the ducks to feed them bread. Everything left is ashes and they died in the fire, i know i said this wasn't a love story but hey im a liar.
Cypher Sep 2016
I told you I haven't smoked in a while
But now I'm gone farther than a mile
Her is my answer when they ask me why i smile
Mrs. is her answer when they ask her what's your title
But whats gonna be your answer when I tell you that I love you
And I'm always gonna love you even from the sky above you
Cypher Aug 2016
Hey there...
I haven't seen you in a while
It's funny because when I see you I smile
Just a glance
I never stare
I feel like what you created isn't fair
Take a breath and breathe
Ignite a fire on the leaf
Lord don't keep my story brief
Even tho I haven't talked to you in days
In your name I praise
Amen...

Countless theorys and suspicions
My only hope is to follow my intuition
What is it that im missin?
Ironic sitting by the speakers waiting for you to listen
My point you missed it
A relief im twistin
I try to ignore you and turn my shoulder
But the fire gets hotter and your heart gets colder
Too much
Too late
Too real
Too fake
I need water dyin of thirst
The worlds against me i think im cursed
I need water dyin of thirst
The worlds against me can it get any worse?
Im the worst
Driving in the valley of shawdows and death im not sure how much fuel this car has left
Nobody's left its just me
They're gone let me be
Nobody's left holding me down
They're gone cut their tie
But yet i still cant fly
To the stars to wish for one thousand wishes
Thats wishful wishing
What is it that im missing?
Im still searching to the skies im cursing
My voice echoes in the clouds and the weather worsens
Hear my voice
Know my name
Im dying of thirst
Now watch it rain
Cypher Aug 2016
I havent done this in a while
Im tired of getting stepped on like tile
I wanna be remembered like Michael
So many mistakes its like a never ending cycle
Cypher Aug 2016
They tired to put my fire out
They tried to make me doubt
Watch the fire spark
Close your eyes it's gonna get even more dark
"You're gonna be a dropout"
I know my route
Like the fire burning through my veins
Flying high like the planes
Getting high without the strains
One man's loss is another man's gains
Hold me down like some chains
Them watch them break like some waves
Cypher Oct 2016
I've seen this before
Standing here staring at a closed door
It seems as the stars hit the floor
Under my eyes the rain pours
I ran to the mirror
Looked myself up and down
Then said I don't know what to do anymore
My heart is sore
I'm seeing red like you're hitting ignore
I get deep into my thoughts and begin to explore...

X marks the spot
So i carve it in your heart
The most valuable treasure
But yet it's priceless
It's like the game winning shot
I only have one chance
I can't miss
Our lips tell each other secrets
We seal them off with a kiss
God took everyone from my life
And told me to pick someone id truly miss
It was you
Even when life makes us black and blue
Forever I'll be by your side
On this crazy roller coaster ride
Cypher Aug 2016
Stuck in a daze
But maybe it's just a phase
With no sign of exit
I'm walking in a maze
Asking for help
From the man who we praise
Cypher Jul 2016
The bright eyes of a queen
A captivating smile like nothing I've ever seen
Lips that are glistening
A lovely voice worth listening
Your body is a garden
Two young roses that are twins
The curves begin to sharpen
Follow the curves
This rose is most delicate
I have to be affectionate
The tree of life
Your storys carved into the bark right next to the roses
I hope that book never closes
The peach is in the back but never is it last
I hope you read this in the mirror
And your insecurities are surpassed
Song of Solomon 7:3 (KJV)
"Thy two ******* are like two young roes that are twins."

Her beautiful smile can light up a room
Her beautiful smile can make flowers bloom
Her eyes sparkle like stars in the night
Her eyes tell stories authors wish to write
If
Cypher Jul 2016
If
If money grew on trees
Would you sit with me
or be worried about the leaves
If hearts had keys
Would you give me yours
Or push me away like waves in the seas
Cypher Aug 2016
I laugh in the face of death
Like what are you gonna take I have nothing left
Take what my last breath?
Im begging for the kiss
But every time you lean in you always seem to miss
Am I wrong or am I right
There has to be a reason Im still living
So God show me the light
Im asking you this now because I think deaths here to take me tonight...
Cypher Apr 2017
Deep defined distress
Flirting with sleeps mistress
Deadly sins devour
The simple minded
Trying to weigh in
On the balance of power
Dont sleep
This feeling i have is low
Chapter six write it down
"You reap what you sow"
Cypher Jul 2016
Nothing stays new
Tares, holes, and rips
Seal your lips
Until everything turns to ashes
And everyone flips
Cypher Oct 2016
Goodbyes louder than baby cries
She waves her hand in the distance
She has to go even though she'll miss it
Just another broken link in a chain
Put it in a box then watch it rain
She's never felt this kind of pain
Why can't things be the way they were before
The tears begin to pour
She stays up all night hoping he'll walk back through the door
Hahaha she knows who this poems for
Cypher Jul 2016
Im just gonna let go
I might sit by the river
To watch the water flow
Im just gonna let go
I might take a walk
To see where I go
Im just gonna let go
I might meet with 4 kings
To watch the leaves blow
Im just gonna let go
I might make a date with brandy
But my stomachs screaming no
Im just gonna let go....
Cypher Aug 2017
Such a powerful drug you are løve
The elusiveness of you
Keeps all intrigued
Searching
Needing
Such a beauty you are løve
There is even beauty in the pain you bring
Never more alive do we feel løve
As when we finally have you in our grasp
We
Quickly forgetting
You løve
Never last
Cypher Jul 2016
I was there
My heart and mind is all I have to share
All jokes aside it wasn't fair
I was there
I was in fear
All love aside I wasnt supposed to be there
What's fair?
Why did I have to go there?
Unable to separate what's real and a lie
Staring at the man in the mirror how much I came to hate that guy
Surprise here comes another lie
I stopped loving so I wont cry
Cypher Jul 2016
Attention seekin
Troubles peekin
Flooded by thoughts
My mind starts leakin
Before I know it
My mouth starts speakin
going off the deep end
I might as well start drinkin
Then I get a text saying you were dead
I was supposed to see you this weekend...
Cypher Aug 2016
Maybe success isnt reachable
Maybe love isnt teachable
Im shooting for the stars
But success is out of my range
Maybe things can change
Not in this life its just too strange
Should I call?
Too late asleep you fall
My thoughts race through my mind
Ill just keep my thoughts to myself
I dont want lose someone whos
One of a kind
Cypher Jul 2017
You're the foundation of my love
With a hallway to my youth
The ceiling is caving in
You deserve to know the truth
No running water
Taking showers with bottled water
Shovel in my hand
  Im digging myself farther
Inhale then exhale
Before the bell rings
I never knew this was the type
of drama commitment brings
A dagger to the heart
Your look of disgust
Like im a first round pick
Turning out to be a bust
Now it's the middle of the summer
And my actions getting dummer
Now im feeling buried alive
Promises i couldnt keep
And the only time i get to see you is when i go to sleep
Woah
The sky never seemed so low
Im looking at her like you never seemed so close
Everything is perfect you know i love you the most
Forever here with open arms you know how i feel
I love when you meet me in my dreams
Everything's so real
Everything's so real
Baby i can hear your heartbeat
Everything's so real
We got babies sitting in the carseats
Everything's so real
Everything's so real
Everything's so real



Leave Me In Reality
Man i wish i could live in our fantasy forever
And **** reality cause then we'll never be together
In reality everyday is another battle
My mind and my hearts in a trance steadily taking collateral
Not searching for sympathy
Not trying to play victim
I keep my feelings locked in a basement
Praying the demons stay with em
In reality im lost, searching without a clue
In reality im lowkey always thinking about you
But in reality i highkey can never let you know
Cause in reality we threw everything out the window
In reality lord ive gone blind
In reality im too comfortable with not trying
In reality ive came a custom to lust another curse of mankind
And in reality two nickles dont add up to a dime
But in reality the perfect girl never gets enough time
Take a shot in the dark
Its tearing us apart
"Smite me with madness, blindness, and astonishment of heart"
Deuteronomy 28:28
Go to sleep
Wake up
Playing a game of give and take

Teardrop filled with anger and hurt
Lightning is the bright alert
Raindrops filled with pain and lie
Thunder screams across the sky
I'm caught in the middle of th storm...
Cypher Aug 2017
A lesson nobody taught me
when i was younger
Is once people are broken in a certain way
They can never be fixed again
As i grew older
I saw people around me break
And eventually you start to wonder
Then you ask yourself when is it your turn or if its already happened
Cypher Aug 2017
Miss me
Miss me
Then they're gonna need me
Miss me
Miss me
Now they wanna see me
I hate to see those i love just look at the ground
"Who is he"
I had to be someone i told them i never wanted to be
Read me
Read me
Recite my words and free me
Read me
Read me
Please come and read me
I talk time speak what you speak
Prior memories in dreams i relive them and weap
Terrors at night
A sunken place not too long ago i went
Just to tell me everything i own really is for rent
How bad i wanna tell you
How bad i wanna show you
Ive lost so much trying to win your heart
How bad i wanna show you
How bad i wanna tell you
Ive lost so much including your heart
Cypher Aug 2016
Watch me go ham
Watch her legs spread like butter
Crooked priorities why focus on color
Its apparent youll end up like your brother
Thats why the pharmaceuticals control your mother
Cypher Sep 2016
Bright blue skies
The clouds are the sun's pillow
I wish I could always wake up
To the sun shinning through my window
But there no stars to wish upon
I get up with a yawn
The trees look picture perfect
They might be drawn
Cypher Dec 2016
Thank god you blew it
Thank god i dodged a bullet
Who would of knew it
I finally had the audacity to do it
Cypher Oct 2016
You said my words brought light into a world full of darkness you said before you saw clarity the world was full of insanity you said that you were speechless staring into the mirror on your vanity cold winds blew that day i remember cause it was half a year after may but the darkness kept crawling and soon the world was pitch black again you went searching for the light but didnt know where to begin maybe in this garden with the snakes slithering through the grass they see right through you like you're made of glass pray you dont fall you might just break you cried so much the garden turned into a lake another mistake you got lost in the shadows and decided to follow a different kind of light but at least youll be smiling in the meadows everytime i read your letter i wish it was a lie


                                         ♡Sincerely,
                                                     ­          Goodbye

Old
Bad habits never stay old
     Im breathless from the last lie i told  
"Ill be around until your lips turn cold"     
But dark clouds spread like mold
Cypher Jul 2016
To be or not to be
Drug induced poetry
Overdosed on love
Staring at the stars above
Should I go or should I stay
Fly away to a better day
Cypher Aug 2016
"You'll never be any good"*
"You're just another kid lost to the hood"
A fire burned through my body
Staring in the mirror as I stood...



To be continued
Cypher Aug 2016
I'm stuck in my ways
Time flying by
I lost track of the days
Bridge over troubled waters
The fire burning is getting hotter
You either win or lose
Constant fight with my life
I get up with only a bruise
Try and walk in my shoes
I'm a terrorist with a bomb I can't defuse
My only choice is to blowup
Then watch the fire spread like gossip
To be Continued

Can i ask you a question?
Why'd you give him a test if he didn't learn his lesson?
Who else was there when aggression turned to depression?
Can i ask you a question?
Did you think i would still believe you after i saw your ****** expression?
So i sat you down like a priest waiting for your confession
You told me your story and you became an obsession
I wouldn't throw in the towel until your heart was in my possession
I gave you everything from A-z starting with affection
Can i ask you a question?
Was i wrong?
Cypher Oct 2016
I remember...
Looking you up and down
Wondering what's your name
Wondering if you were single
And what's the reason you came
Breath taking beauty my face turned purple
I wanted you to be mine and that to be known universal
Nothings changed since then
I know we've been through alot
But to have you i'd do it all over again
Youre a trophy nobody else can win

Have you ever felt like the color red in a black and white photo? Its like youre a puzzle piece among clueless people, they don't understand the use and reason of your existence so they bring negativity into your peace of mind, trying to turn you into something youre not, trying to distract the caterpillar from never making its cocoon and never reaching its full potential turning into a butterfly.
