"I woke up one morning,
Looked at the daylight sky dripping red giving off a warning.
Like it was telling me that today you will feel agony,
Dear child, get your black gown on and mourn on your sanity,
It said to me with bleeding eyes,
Don’t cry over me dear god i screamed hearing thunder louder than my cries,
I ran to the bathtub holding my tool of recovering,
Looking up for forgiveness to this endless suffering.
I heard the skies laugh at me with one aim,
They were pleased with putting me to shame.
Blades went through my skin letting blood drip as slow as snow fall,
My eyes started to tear and my mouth ran dry and i had no one to call,
My heart started praying to what might come next,
It prayed to stop maybe that was for the best.
A wish was granted to that bleeding heart,
Which will forever be torn apart.
Bleed now you’ll never rest in peace,
You’ll eternally live here being torn piece by piece.”
4am
At 4am you're either on top of the world, or under it.

I used to believe in God.
I used to go to church and say the prayers.
I used to sing the hymns and read the stories.
I used to have faith in a higher power.
I used to believe I would go to Heaven.
You never understood.

You never liked church and you thought prayer was useless.
You rolled your eyes at the hymns and laughed at the stories.
You put your faith in yourself, in your family and in me.
You said Heaven was on earth and right by your side.
I never understood.

I used to believe in God before you died.
Church held no answers and the prayers didn’t work.
The hymns couldn’t heal me and the stories annoyed me.
My higher power took my faith and threw it in my face.
But worst of all, worse than anything else, I knew Heaven was a lie.
Because the real Heaven was on earth, and you were torn from my side.

////////

A world of abundance where everyone is killing each other in order to live
because

A few have stolen governments and all commodities

////

And you're  okay with that ?

||

Oh

Sing your songs
Dream love's dreams

Wait to die

Be anything but a human being

//

It's alright

The fight

Would last too long

And You have things to do
Tonight

///

Try you're best

It won't just fade away

Oh no

It won't just fade away

||

And you're okay with that ?

///

The hour
Is alive with viciousness

The ****** bodies in stinking streets

We talk of love

It don't mean a thing

Your lover just cut her wrist and is dying

///

The air it ain't fit to breath

The water it ain't fit to drink

///

Our love ?

The *****'s breath

--

Our lives ?

Slavery

///

You
Say

IT IS THE ONLY LIFE I'VE HAD

AND
YEAH

I'M OKAY WITH THAT

YEAH I AM

OKAY WITH THAT
This little electronic corner of the world
We write about perms and fades and smoking J's
Instead of vision and living and learning faith
Creating something to remember takes a backseat to taking drugs to forget your failed attempts
   And in contempt you tell yourself you'll try harder
                   Get smarter
      And either die a martyr
    Or retire the father of a son or a daughter who will live on and alter the empire you built or the entire world which we live
           But you acknowledge none of this will happen if you don't try

And then you get high
And do exactly that


     And pass the time between coming down and lighting up by writing about perms and fades and smoking J's
