You creep behind refuge, exemplifying human nature
The dearth of your kindness kindles my feature

Your tongue must flavor of dust or dirt
For your falsehoods lay with incessant inert

When God formed you he fabricated sin
Stitched with worthlessness that festers within

I know your deeds and will sing them atop the trees
And your precious pride will perish with my lip's ease

I would do a charity and release your soul from the earth
And make the pain as profitable as your life was worth

Death will wear you as a cape in the afterlife
He'll carve his name in you everyday with a boning knife

It is a sad dawn in hell when you arrive
But it was your fate son, you mustn't deny
Nathaniel Apr 2019
Strip back your false innocence
Everyone knows it's a cloudy mist
Show us your yellow teeth and
Show us your rotten fist
I no longer know you
Sessis, upon you I wish death

There's no more love in America
Fake faces on screens create a hysteria

Unattainable perfection develops a depression
That feast on self hatred and drinks self aggression

Our bodies are not molded of clay created by selection
We are birthed of mistakes that mold our perfections

Our lives are forcibly drenched around image
But *** shouldn't be peddle it should be privilege

Before all of this, love was a time and a place
A moment that was told by heartfelt embrace

That created a lone eternity for a pair of lovers
Where happiness dwelt under and above the covers

Now it is manufactured, sold, and looted
Only we would take something pure and make it polluted
Nathaniel Apr 2019
At the end of the world there forms an array of islands
Each of which bathes in the heat from the sun's shine
while the breeze off the water sways the palms in silence
and the waves on the bleached shore form coastlines

In the distance, the small islands shelter the light blue horizon
And upon a narrow gaze, the water is flooded with dye
Fish and coral erupt with colors that glisten like diamonds
Separating the decorated ocean from the painted sky

I take a step onto the sandy land but before I can take another
I am greeted with a warm breeze that smells of salt
and my eyes stare at the bleach white foam off the water
Leading me to a world of tropical beauty with no halt

You laced your trial with hatred, without reflection
Left yourself to ***** on the floor as an animal
But your mind is not a field of complexion
Its stationary, its cruel, its done its own rejection

Why could you not bring yourself to tell her you love her
If the words were empty, thoughts would not congest you
Let your emotions bleed into your mouth so you mustn't defer
Without voice your love will remain a whisper

Confidence is consciousness that stays forever with you
A skill mastered not in meditation, but repetition
The excuse of taboo itself is ironically unnew  
You cried, felt shame, and fell to, but her love never grew

Now you have no right to whine
When you see lover with a man who took his step
He completed his coast, but you're still in mine
Do not wait for love, because star do not align

If I don't die young I'll be a disappointment to myself and others
For if I grow old all I will know is regret
I want them to write about me when I'm dead not sit by my bed
Nathaniel Mar 2019
Do you hear?

Do you listen?

I felt your breath
But I also felt another
My ears discovered, in this very cave
An eternal body and an eternal coward

Do not share an ear to he that loathes you
Let your mind explore your exceptional thoughts
Thoughts of philosophers, born of gold and wisdom
You stand above man and above he

Ill treatment towards your being is rooted in jealousy
For they hate the perfections that leave them sleepless
Their journey is childlike to what our eyes have seen
So they develop an abhorrence to your presence

Do not let this shake your ground
A man on his silver horse must ignore those who trudge on feet
And the feline must not concern himself with rodents
Their pain is individual, you have met worst

Let me show you you're undying potential
With me you're most natural fantasies face reality
