Engrossed in
Electronic word game
Famed on phone

Ad delay my
Path to next level
Dropping my attention

Sudden rush of
Nothingness in
My blood

No screen time
Felt a bottomless
Bleak pit

I fell until
I measured my breath
Of existence leaving

All defined on
False electric bait
Clips of wins and loss

Almost threw up
In my felt emptiness
Messy messy power grab

Measure me alive
Today and Now
Not then or ever
Playing a number matching game on my phone. Engrossed daily in getting to higher levels. How far can I get? The further I get to the higher number the less I am attached to my self. Losing all definition. Realizing the power of myself I give away to a meaningless device.

you
i think i fall for blue eyes
gullibly to them alone
stripped clean from my disguise
a weakness i cannot atone

eyes like rain and morning blues
like ocean tides and stormy skies
i think i fall
for blue stained lies

there's something so appealing
about just

drowning


because if i were to drown for you
with you
i like i'd finally
live
realized every person who ive trusted with everything and lost had blue eyes

strange

Feel of a lost direction
   A path saved for later
Took about a hundred try
   Lost the touch.... what's the matter?

I Saw a dream...
It was you and me
With another one
Some of you and some of me

I saw a dream

Struggled for it
Worked for it
Planned for it
Hurt for it..

I saw a dream.

Syringes filled with liquid
Sometimes filled with blood
Some part of me excited
Some part of me stunned.

I saw a dream.

The call of siren
The call of hope
The wait of nine months
But wait for it some more

I saw a dream..
I saw some dream
I saw you so far away
And bloodshed left with me.

I saw a dream.

Oh, Moon vine,
Always sleeping where you bud.
I knew you couldn't wake,
Too lost in your fantasy's of pallid dittany's.

Do you wish to be stirred one day,
Or would you prefer to dream forever?
To chase the void in longing disparity,
To live in your own mind eternally?

When you wilt do you think, Moon vine,
You'll keep dreaming?
Up for interpretation, I'd love to hear how you personally see this poem, no wrong answers
