Faint sun burns
In the dark
Break down this fortress
Detached from
Reality
Growing impatient
Alter the mistakes
A purpose for pain
When sentiments align
And the static subsides
Suddenly
All the commotion
Stops
To the right
Soul a connection
Undoubtedly uncanny
It’s a rare feat
To cross
Paths with someone
Who sees life like you do
Almost or to good to be true
One in million
A almost exact wavelength collides
An explosion of sorts
Who would have thought
And for a moment
It all makes sense
Why everyone else is clueless
Because they’ve never been
Where we have
And probably never will
If we shut down
Well there’s a **** good reason
Behind it
To go rouge
So leave it alone
The conversations feel effortless
What a relief
One in the same
And the deep feelings are mutual
Go summon
All thee angles
And tell them we are ready
Why not wait tell tomorrow
Today’s a good a day as any

Spiraling
Silver spoons
Have lost there shine
Relapsing innocents
Flew thee cope  
Then came
The Intense retribution
In coming
Avalanche
Left with a
Splintered periscope
And tainted blood
Violently flowing
Creepy non scintillating
Deja vu setting in
Pivoting transitions
Retreating to calmer waters
May I find a path
To a
Unparalleled universe
When thee unknown
No longer scares you
Heavy critique falling by the wayside
Crumbling decades
The bad company
That kept me companion
No response do not resuscitate
I’m perfectly fine with that
Goodbyes are
Easy when
No one is alert
One more time
Around the track
Then I’m jumping ship
Future outcomes
The unpredictability of these
Uncertain times
Have taken the wind outta my sails
How  I’ve dreamed of something
More ideal
That I could never have here
May the shockwaves
Of this soiled place
Wash me away in the wind
Be felt with me
No longer in it

Stained glass
Hearts on fire
Adaptability
Out of reach
If only
My lonely captivity wouldn’t
Have enslaved me
Eviction notice
Where’s my nirvana
Spinning off axis
Chutes and ladders  
Where’s my
Off ramp
My unappealing entity
I’m tangled in it
Shattered hope
Lost somewhere in the sky
Black and gray never conformed to
Grave robber
The villain to my hero
A deity
Fast roping me to safety
The one who knows
And sees all
Please just let me go
Caving in under the pressure
I’m undesirable
Please abort this mission
And move on to the next one
Orphaned caterpillar
Never blossomed into a butterfly
Why did you give
Me life
To just let it be wasted
Away without merit  
On other people’s careless betrayals
Impersonating someone else
Became a sick game
There was
No regard for my emotional stability
My imperfections became
A muse
For my unsettling nerves

Way past pleasantries
Incoming dissension
Hold your applause
Zero gravity
Let me down slowly
A smoking gun
Is that my true fate
Far from a truce
Is it really necessary
At this point
Chemical reactions
Malfunctions are far to common
In my spaces
Refraining my next move
Could be my last
Paper lanterns burning in the distance
Empty chairs
Become very ordinary
Anticipating where
My pain will hit me the most
Misdirected
Unfortunately
It’s my own to bare
Why the hell can’t it ease up
Even a little
Serenity oh how I
Wish you’d sweep me up
And wrap me in your tender arms  
Where exactly
Can I find that kind for comfort here
I’ve all but given up on
Because I can’t tune out
Control the noise levels that
Run lividly through me
Because maybe in this life
I just don’t deserve it
And I’ve just accepted that fact
That maybe
I’ve just had bad luck
Along the way
When others should have been
Paying attention
Instead they ran the other direction
And
I’ve been confiscated by
My own impersonator for an ample period

Pop the cork
And unleash
All your sorrows
Housed in
Plexiglass
Knee deep in
The times
That evaded me
Border line insane
Not centered
You reap what you sow
I’d rather be
More grounded
No amount of love here
Could seal up my seeping wounds
The glowing embers
Oh how
I wish I cloud erase them
Digging up dirt
Diving in head first pilling
Up on top of me
As I wish upon
A star am I all out of wishes
Maybe one day
The agony will dissipate
Every which
Way I look
Starving for
Something greater then me
When will my shoes finally
Fit properly
Always searching for
A simpler alternative to
My mind of madness
It amazing what you can get used too
A rugged complexion
That’s hard to understand
Resembling
Anything that I’ve been unable
To translate into something readable

Back porch blues
I’m seeing ghosts
Skimming through
The pages
Burning bridges
Searching
For glory in my hell
Unaccompanied
Guilty innocence
What a pity
Had it all stripped just like that  
Orphaned
That look in your
Eyes that echos in pain
The sad little
Boy who cried
Wolf and no one came
Running to save him
How could his parents
Be so cruel
Abandon him in the direst
Of moments
That would shape the sands
Of time
What would the future hold
Wish I would have never known
The answers to that
Now a man struggling
With what ifs
All I wanted was to be a boy
And enjoy my childhood
Wondering where all the time went
Wasting away
In the distant cries  
Of a youth that took me under with it
