Being trapped,
is
Loving someone,
whom you know,
you will only and forever love
yet
will never see again.
You are trapped.
You feel the pain
that person went through
everyday
as you awake.
Yes,
that single and
one night
they spent
crying
for you.
Every tear that came down
has been a year
of suffering.

Dearest Dear,
What have you done?
In vain will be this death.
The somberness I carry,
finally,
will cross the finish line & breathe.
On the count of three,
I will make sure you sleep better at night.
Protect you,
as if alive,
As it should've been.
You owned  a
Soul,
here on Earth.
It wails for you.
Stand back,
after just fourteen days,
It would be as if,
I was never here.
You will be in peace,
I'll make sure from the Other side,
Because even after this life,
I will love you.
Yes,
I actually, really,
Love you.
One,
Two,
Three.

Never knowing if you're alone
Who to turn to
Where to call home
Never knowing if maybe you're better off dead
Trying to categorize feelings
Into your heart or your head
Dark winding tunnels, expectations of pain
Not knowing if the light at the end is hope
Or a train
Can you outrun it?
Impossible.
Try and dodge it?
You'll get swept up in the undertow
Just look at your feet and keep going
Emotional tides high and over-flowing
Tears plunge into the absolute
Darkness of unknowing.

I've been racing,
Fighting against time to get away from you.
Swept up from behind,
Was the love I bled;
It was gone.
I've been sinning,
Blasphemy my tongue never knew,
Drugs my lungs couldn't take
Enemies cried seeing the evil my eyes gleamed.
I was awful.
Look at my blood;
It's blue.
Peep into the heart inside me,
See how there is only half?
Bet you never knew.
Calling me a liar?
Because it's been a century,
And,
I still love you?
Switching up your emotions never works,
My emotions have never switched,
The only switch was you.

Nestled in halo of the
Moonlit sky
Two hearts tangoed.

I know the poets like you know your favorite rap artists
I can recite their poetry in the same way you sing your favorite song
You find peace within the intricate design of instruments playing together
Strings, drums, piano pieces sending electric, warming sensations underneath your skin
Your very bones quiver against the sound of the base dropping into your soul
I know the poets like you know your favorite movies
I can recite their poetry in the same way you quote Mean Girls every word
I find solace in words
I find remedy in the relaying of pain onto paper
There is no peace within the confines of the mind, but inside the soul there is kindness quite like it
Sometimes when the music is too loud
When the beat of the drums stops moving my soul
Poetry picks up the pieces that your base dropped
When the words become nothing but repitition
I find my release
