Scandalous beauty
Rotting in view
Why was I always the
Sacrificial lamb
I should have
Taken an oath
To draw myself closer
To you sooner
Instead I allowed
The evil to wear me like
A sad painting
Soaking up my sanity inch by inch
Consuming me
Entirely to often
All my praises
Belong to you from here on out
What happened before
Shouldn’t matter
Yet it still displaces my being
Ball and chain
Breaking rocks falling face first
I never had a say
As I was blindsided
By a life I would have written
Differently and had
It been more decent  
Terrorized by
Meaningless tyrants
Like a sick addiction
It became maddening
Forgiveness
Is a skill
I’ve never quite mastered
And probably never will
My tarnished
Image split me in two
Mirroring a hologram
Left to pick up the pieces
Has never reflected well
In my direction
As I’ve stared it all in the face
The mirrors
That have broken me apart
Sadly to this day
Are the ones I hate the most

Asunder
Birds of prey
Hard headed
Gravity
Incomplete story
In need of my
Sweet salvation
I can’t walk
On water
Wishful thinking
Out loud
Ringing the bell
Twelve rounds are up
Spiraling out
Of control
My crutch can’t withstand
The pressure
Like a stick of dynamite
Exploding daily
Fountain of youth
I’ll pass
I’d never wanna relive
All the unbearable moments here
I’ll never drink from the cup
Because I’ve seen more
Then enough of all this
So called life
For a thousand lifetimes in vain
Dead weight free falling
Into flames
Like a bomb
Falling from the sky
Catastrophic damage up next
Would you shield me from
Thee explosion
Before I fall  
To my demise  
Parachute open up your
Door to me eternally yours
I will be forever in your debt

Dissolving shadows
A faceless man
Stoic I am not
Wounded
Crimson tides
The heavy whispers
Raised
In the dimmest of corners
Obscene occurrences
Plowed me over
The stinging
Bitterness only added fuel to the fire
Sweet and sour
Far to much deception
I wanna
Travel to a place
Where nothing stands in my way
Endless pain
My heartache has
Me defeated
Has me waving
My white flag
Will the wings from
Above grab hold of my broken wings
Before the sky falls in on me
And let’s fly away forever
Fall asleep peacefully
Oxygen
Swallow me whole
Till there’s no more
Air to breathe
Holy water bathe
Me in your divine waters of purity
Saturate me in anonymity
Tell I’m free and clear
Of this place for all eternity
All brand new in a clean slate in heaven

Stingy echos
The stale air that
Fills my lungs
White noises
Silence is more then welcome
Falling on deaf ears
My howling horizons
Miles apart inside
Boxed in a compartment
Me myself
And I
Who have
I ever been deceived along thee way
Crumbling
Fields of elation
Receding daylight
Constantly over
Thinking day dreaming
Way out of my depths
You rained down
On my parade
From day one
Stripped the armor off
And left me for dead
My tsunami seas
Made me delusional
Navigating life
I couldn’t seem to read
My compass properly
The mirages that lied
That bathed my
Broken spirit in there sands
Like a mothers milk
How could I go without
You stole away my kingdom
And exiled my soul
Where would I be
If you hadn’t
Put me under your spell
The white picket fences
I’ve longed for
Instead replaced by prison bars
Of your imposter syndrome

Condemnation
Are we way past the point
Of no return
The insanity
That floods and paints
Thee streets in it’s ugly colors
Is laughable
Soldiers unite and follow
Your so called leaders
To who knows where
Unhinged and let the
Wreaking havoc explode
Appetite
For destruction
Turn the tv up a little louder
And let the fake news run wild
As there lies spew out there guts
Innocent for a minute
Just let the greed
Seep into your pores
And the hunger for power
Is like an addiction
Where’s your crown now
Boom goes the dynamite
Far to many are guilty
Yet they still run freely
How is there no consequences
Rule of law is dead
Power is the ultimate king
As all the madness
Comes knocking
In today’s chaotic world
It all blows up in your face
Take the click bait
And watch the inferno
Run you up a wall
Block out the outside noise
And run and hide if you can
Before the inferno barricades
You in it’s path
Make an alliance to no one  
Close your windows
And think for yourself
Let them insert the hatred
In someone else’s veins
Let the skies bleed red
On them all
And don’t fall for there trap
The realities of there
World should never match up
With your own opinion

Pale in comparison
Raven to my dove
Pins and needles
Interluding invaders
Like a sponge
Where’s my
Pitter patter the silence
I wanna drown in it
Salivating resemblance
Tears in my hands
Am I losing my faith
Thee ability to move on
Unhinged the kettles turning black
Not in Unison
Trivial pursuit an endless cycle
Of melancholy
A Captivity
My point of view
Has held me in
Unsteady hand cinder blocks
Have me sinking
I have never been light of foot
Walking on egg shells
Trust is gone
I left it down at the seashore
My walls went up long ago
Swan song
Sing louder help me
Float head up abound in lightness
And let the dim dark tones
Flutter on there own time

Screeching anthems
Emotional vampire
Enemy of my agony
Brittled so called friend
Nestled between
Pieces in thee deep depths Somewhere in my soul
Infringement
Igniting embers
Gaining traction
Suffocating
Caged sanity
Tourniquet barely holding
Edge of a cliff
The ferocious beasts
Are hunting attempting to
Hand in my resignation
Chain linked
Hands and feet
Oozing secrets
Sounds of fury
Reality gave me glaucoma
The killers of day colorblinded
A last glance
Burning me like a cigarette
To the last puff
Beating a dead drum
Accomplishing nothing
False pretenses
Coddling me to no end
Overprotective of
My thoughts you never were
The proofs in the pudding
Unamused beyond a reasonable
Doubt of anything I certainly was
