I looked straight through her,

Ghostly presence,

Too thin,

All skin,

Draw features,

Cold,

Scarred,

Scared,

Was this who,

Raised me,

Happy mothers,

Sorry sons.

Mortality.

I sit and look,

Indifferently engaging,

People pass by,

Mindless cadavers,

Seeking more,

Having less,

Racing to mortality.

Before

Never been a clever talker,

Not known to hold my tongue,

Once it gets in motion,

I'm in trouble before long

Deeper

Inside a peaceful, quiet still,
A hush to quash the noise,
But deeper down, and inner will,
Kills silence, with hate's toys.

Be still my mind, my soul, and heart,
Just let me idly be,
Yet in my head, I'm torn apart,
Bring forth insanity

Look

I look the same,

As you,

I look the same,

As yesterday,

I look the same,

As you envisioned,

I look the same,

As ever,

I look the same,

You stopped looking,

I look the same,

Wrong, look again.

Release....

No longer is it shackled,

Nor kept quiet in a cage,

It's time to feed the monster,

To now, release the rage.

Iced

Iced blood, like syrup seeps out,

From self cut arms and veins,

I never thought I'd make it,

Perhaps my life, my pain
