art is
blood

we cut
our
souls

on purpose

sometimes
it trickles

sometimes
it oozes

and

sometimes
it spurts

and always
we create

these scars

we heal
but never

hide

I like puddles
So I jump in a puddle
It makes me muddled
I’m pretty confused
So take me to Dr.Lee
So that I can function correctly
Then I can jump in a puddle again
Thanks.

Said yes but you meant no
Last time I was on these roads
I was chasing money
I was running for the paper
Now the money chases me
I run from the winter

Where will you go?
I am not accepting
myself in a windowless
vault.

The luxury of
kinship takes a toll.

Will it make a
difference, if you don't
fill in the missing words
in the message unwritten?

It works to ****
yourself for the sake
of dying light,
before the blood moon rises.

There was nothing
left to say.

give me a number,
the appropriate label,
and compare me to the rest.

set me aside for a rainy day when you’ve exhausted through your list.

lets face it,
i’m just another: nothing more, nothing less.

everything i am to you
is that which you can see.

you simplify me down
to something for your frail mind read.

sometimes I wonder if this feeling is the voice of my own perceived inadequacy?
will someone ever really just love me for me?

A Mess of Words
On down the road to Yeosu

Beside Pacific blue

We went with many merry songs

And sought something new
I am tired
Of wanting to create a masterpiece
But not having enough energy to do it.
I feel bored
I want to do something
But when I get up
To create that beautiful masterpiece
I am drawn back by knowing I don't have the talent
And that whatever it is I make
Is never going to be seen
So I realize, what the hell is the point?
There isn't one, I know now
If no one sees what I make
There is nothing that I can do
To make it real
So I guess that I will never be seen
And my great masterpiece will never be revealed
