Inversion
EmperorOfMine May 2018
Traveling down a spiraling tunnel
I'm a bundled complexity
Reversing forward growing small
Contradict reality
Black nor white nor gold nor silver
Full of color, colorblind
Liquid bliss comes raining down
Shower me with the sunshine
Blinking sinking water sand
Waves go crashing like the land
Grinding bones like greasy lips
Icy hairs with blazing tips
Oracle but nothing live
I think I am going down
Maybe I'm losing my mind
Since it's probably lost sound

Oh, how you look at me...

I just can't help when I start smiling.

Strawberry lips, oh my...

Can't help it when I feel this shy.

If madness is loving you...

Well then, baby, guess I'm mad too.

Falling into a candy land...

Clap your hands, because now I'm a fan.

Hot Water
EmperorOfMine May 2018
Have you ever heard the saying, If you play with fire, you're bound to get burned?

Well, to me, I think it's just as bad as touching the hot water. The difference is that, if you do not have control over the water, you can't really tell the difference of whether it's cold or hot until you touch it.

Now don't get me wrong, you could probably feel that tiny whiff of heat or cool air, but it's not as easy as looking at a fire and thinking it'll be hot.

So, why am I telling you this...

Well, water is the same color, whether hot or cold.

Cold water does not hurt you as quickly as hot water, yet it still hurts.

People are like hot water.

Life is like cold water.

And you...your soul...conscious, if you don't believe in those, that's lukewarm.

Cold water can feel really good when thirsty,
And hot water feels good when bathing,

But lukewarm water...it's simply lukewarm.

Not bad, but not good.

I'm waking up again

I'm not alone, my friend,

Some evening leaves love dancing in the wind

So as I start to grin,

I know the party starts

I feel them in my eyes,

My pupils' shaped like hearts

The city sings a tune,

The crowds are walking laughter

And as the flowers bloom,

Fortune comes from disaster

Wish the night would stay with me,

It's when I feel the most of peace

But just like many wondrous things,

They love to die when it's too early

The colors may just fade away,

When does a rainbow turn bland

Sometimes I don't know what to say,

My time just ran out of its sand
EmperorOfMine May 2018
My eyes feel the unfortunate kiss of the sunlight

Man, it burns so fricking much when I try to grip onto woke

I anxiously glance at the time even when I have no plans or promises

I wonder what day it must be

Climbing out of bed without a routine can be bittersweet

It's as grand as going to work every day other than payday

But what's the most unfortunate thing about the morning light

It's the fact that yesterday happened

You can't wake up and see that everything was just a dream

Funny, I could've sworn this already happened before...

It's like the world is trying to tell you something

Hey bub, did you know that hell is just tiny build ups of agony and then never remembering those agonies happened. Over and over again, you're living in it.

Who would have thought I'd be mourning in the morning...

I'm too tired for this

I should probably go back to sleep...

Maybe when I'm gripping woke again...

Maybe it'll be the evening.

I will not lose my love
I need to keep my hope
For this world is cold enough
My hand shall be your climbing rope
For all those who turn trust off,
It only really harms the owner
Let your heart go from firm to soft
Or you just might be another goner
I know, this world is cruel and mean,
But don't let it trick you now
You have no control, that's their scheme
This circus can't end without your reaction and their bow
So please keep your head up,
And this is nothing more than a warning
Cause once you start giving up
You just might see the new hell storm coming

Dear bully,

Why bully me?

Is it because I'm not the brightest?
Is it because I'm not the most bubbly?
Is it because I'm not unbelievably loving?
Or maybe...
Is it because I exist and that alone?

My dear sweet bully,

Do you like it when you hurt me?

Does it quench your thirst when I struggle to hold back my tears?
Are you satisfied when you become one of my many fears?
Do you keep an eye open for the knife that may end your night?
Or maybe...
You just like it when I'm vulnerable and broken because you feel better about your cracks.

Finally, my undying bully,

What would it take for you to stop bullying me?

Do you want my bloodlust craving blade to open your throat?
Or maybe just a kiss to end your petty attention to me...ew
Maybe you don't want anything but to be better, because you envy me...
Or maybe...
I disturb you because I remind you of who you can never be...

So let me ask you one final time...
Daddy, why must you bully me?
EmperorOfMine May 2018
Follow the pathway until there’s an end.

The more you move forward, the chances you’ll win.

And if you die, that’s okay, respawn again.

There’s more to this journey than worlds to defend.

Go bouncing to music until there’s a theme.

Grin, frozen in time, as if this was a dream.

Oh, someone needs help, though it’s not what it seems.

Complete the percentage to add to winning.

As time will swim by, you may fall off track.

You better gain points, so you can come back.

Be wise when you fall, for you are intact,

You may not come back again, you are not a cat.

As you gain experience, keep this in mind,

You must not journey as if you have been blind.

Cause, there will be bosses and many are strong.

Isn’t obvious, base it on the song.

Here I am on a dark Earth
Here in black, pondering worth
As the demons start to surf
Now new evils come of birth

Every time I look around
There's nothing, not even sound
As Earth's pull starts pulling down
Notice, I'm not on the ground

What am I falling into
What's sticking on me, like glue
No one will care, is it true
Rage in me starting to brew

Eyes that stared avert away
Feel my heart and lungs decay
Yeah, It's bad, it's not okay
I lost words I want to say

Raised my hands up to the sky
There are people around me
As I start questioning why
They pretend like they can't see

They're laughing, I'm not there
They did say, no one would care
I could bet that with my luck
I might get hit by a truck

It's okay, for I am mad
I'm not sane, and now I'm glad
I've lost my world, I've no goal
They can take and churn my soul

No one cares, but who would dare
When in this world was life fair
For you come into life bare
Bound to lose your mind down there

Alone in a Sea of People
EmperorOfMine May 2018
Sometimes my head feels like it's filling

My throat starts closing when I need to breathe

When I need to scream but I flick it away

Because ɪ ᴅᴏɴ'ᴛ ᴡᴀɴᴛ ᴛᴏ ᴍᴀᴋᴇ ᴀɴʏᴏɴᴇ ᴜɴᴄᴏᴍᴈᴏʀᴛᴀʙʟᴇ

No one knows what this does to me

But yet we can all relate when the bomb explodes

Why wait until my fate is enclosed

I vent to others hoping for results

But even when I'm hidden I'm still singled out

Why does the universe want me to be alone

Why am I treated like I'm not here

It's not always the peoples fault

I've had people try to hang out with me

But I'm weird, okay

And sometimes I just give off a distant feeling

Maybe I'm a monster

Or maybe I should be alone

Maybe my mind should be my only friend

The one I turn to...

Yeah, that's not going to happen

My mind is my worst bully

Yet I'm caged in, left here

Hyperventilating, panicking

I can't see right

I can't breathe right

I can't hear right

My hearing is fading

I'm fading

I don't know what to...do...

Don't get stuck inside your head

It's a place of only dread

Loneliness is not a friend

Here I am falling again

One may call me unstable

I would rather be playful

Smile bought up for this course

I can't help but to feel forced

I hate twitching with this rage

Why does my body feel caged

Falling back to Wonderland

Sometimes madness is my friend
Not done. This is only the beginning...

We stand in the shadows
Clapping
Full of colors
We're happy for you
But don't you forget
We live in the shadows
Though our words may seem hallow
Might our theme seem so shallow
We can't forget our emotions and drive
We can't regret our choices or cries
You can't diminish our silent whys
We sing in the shadows
It's a bittersweet disguise.

It's okay to pretend someone's suffering is rightfully deserved...

If you act as though they deserve it...

But if you're going to say this is at all true...

You should shut your mouth. When. Your. Turn. Is. Due...

Like a bystander to someone's mischief...

Whether a poem or a movie...

The fact that you feel sourness when ***** serious...

Your help over the choice to avert your eyes...

That is what will be soothing.

They're scared
You know who
It's the monsters
This is true

Watch them suffer
Smile more
They deserve it
Watch blood pour

Don't be scared
It's their fault
There was peace
We were taught

It is gone
Yes it is
They took it
They are wrong

So they burn
Like they should
No one lives
There's no good

Sticks and stones may break my bones, and words will really hurt me

For you to try to bully does mean how much you're hurting

When I fall down I get back up, take this advice, if any

To mute me, or anything just makes you more of a weakling
EmperorOfMine May 2018
I'm no popstar

I can't make you dance

I have no rhythm

But that isn't the plan

Have you noticed...

We are chained down

Staring up at...

Demons on the ground

As we shout out, help

Who comes rescuing

I've not seen one

I've seen nobody, nobody

To come help me or you

Watch them turn their eyes from the view

Once you realize that they knew...

That this would happen soon

But no one comes to help

They'd rather keep to themselves

But why spew lies for your health

You say this but act that

So let us get to the POINT

If you want, go grab a joint

This right here's about to get deep

Please sit down, you'll need a seat




We're in a motion picture
Trying not to have a seizure
Crying with a smiley face
We look like a mental case
Rapid noises make us crazy
Drowning from the depressions
Money's been powerful, lately...
I've been feeling pretty stress

You come home, sit down
You used to laugh but now you frown
You can't get up, gravity-bound
You lost your words within the sound
As time moves on, you see the waste
The blood of souls that lost their way
And first comes lust and then our wants
Before our needs that we should hunt
But what's the fun in being good
And what's the good in being wise
I watch this all play out often
I see faces morph with lies


As everyone dies
And We start to cry
We wish we could fight
But we choose to fly
Away from the war
No way in for peace
A gate to the heavens
But you'll need a key
As fire does grow
And evil has bloomed
We love to mask it
With music and soon...
We won't get to hide
The light starts to shine
Exposed to the truth
Scattering in rooms


If you got this far

Just heed to my theme

We really need peace

It's not what it seems

There puzzles of course

Can makeshift our dreams

A system's been made

Our being will fade

Your choices have power

Someone does get paid

Your soul is at war

To you, it may bore

Someone holds your hand

The other ignores

They both want you still

Though who will you choose

I wonder who feels

The best into you

I just want someone to relate
But all I am left with is awe
Don't look at me like that
Like I'm strange
Like I'm stupid
Like I'm not worth it
I care about what you think
I care about you

But is that my fault
Or is it yours
I still love
I still fight
I have hope
But this world
It tells me to let the good go
Treat myself
and only myself
But at the same time
Treat everyone else
As I want to be treated

How can you be such hypocrites
How can you smile with your false teeth and plastic eyes
How can you look down on me
When I am but natural
I am human
I am not an android
But why is that a bad thing
No one is perfect
I am not your trophy
I am not your garbage
Do not look away
Do not run to your comfort

You think you deserve peace
You think you deserve comfort
Who do you think you are
Don't close your eyes
Don't cover your mouth
Don't plug your ears
Listen to me
See me
Speak to me

Run into your phone
I dare you...
Walk away
Hit me
It'll make everything better, huh
Or is that what they've programmed you to say
You think you're so clever
You think you're better than me
Well here's the news flash
You're just like me

Matter of fact
You are me
So look out of the mirror
Take of that plastic smile
Wipe away the makeup
Stop acting
You can do it
You can smile without the fake teeth
You can laugh without the recordings
You are strong without having to be prideful
Cocky


Be humble
This isn't to make you feel good
This isn't even about you
So why did you make it about you
Cause 'you' is in it
Or is it because you can relate
Step away from the mirror
Participate
Shut it down

I shouldn't pour my soul out if it leaves nothing behind


That's why I watch this world's suffering shine

Don't mind me while I sip my sweetened tea

I'm sitting in the shade watching life play out like a poem
without
meaning...
EmperorOfMine May 2018
My keyboard makes music out of my tears
With ever fear I feel and every smile I bring
With the madness that takes me
With the rage I sing

Like she once said
It's not easy to read to them what's in my head
So we write it instead...
While we grip to our beds

I'm stuck okay,
I don't need to tell them how deep I'm in this
Rapid fire, dancing liars, a choir of fire
I couldn't get shyer, my pleas will be dire

With my sensitivity
My emotions exploding
My complicated thinking
My heart that's bleeding

You know what...fudge it
I try and I cry and I even ask why
But when does it matter
I know we all feel the weight...










But why do they diminish what makes my soul ache

But its okay

I don't have much else to say

I'm going to continue to play the silent game

I see no darkness

I hear no bitterness

I speak nothing heartless

Evil does not run me

Why let it run them?

Sometimes I watch the clock to remind me
To remind me that I'm not frozen in time
I can still be seen
I exist

And sometimes I smile, because
Smiling is typically contagious
Some people get off on happiness
But its a drug that's worth the trouble

Did you know that happiness is equally dangerous
People do crazy **** for pleasure
But is pleasure really happiness
Or is that just what we tell ourselves...

As I wonder in a repetitive tick
And realize that these feelings are stupid
To feel so anxious
It's all so obsolete

Anyway, I'm ready to go
Have to catch the bus to get home
I hate Mondays
But only when the sky raises false hope

In a moments time
I'll disappear from your mind
You hold my existence in your power
But like a glance, I'm something you simply see
Not something you'll ever miss

Things go down when the dominos fall,

I would know, I watched them fall

The scene imprinted in my mind

Lives crippling from out the sky

I'm slow in motion, I can't help

I'm just like you inside this hell

Although I wish I couldn't see

I'd rather silence from the pleas

I feel like I'm going insane

Watching the effects take their place

A choice was made, a result after

So much beauty made from disasters.
Not meant to rhyme...kind of rhymes

I scream and I scream and I scream and I scream

Yet you cannot hear me

They're ripping me apart, I beg your attention

Not for submission, but for some peace

I doubt you can understand me since I'm speaking in riddles

But I speak as clear as air...

I scream and I scream and I scream, please help me...

But I'm silent

I'm quiet...

And as I try to breathe, after being forced to hold my breath

I need to breathe...I'm suffocating

You've put me on mute

You've clogged your ears with hypnotic vibes

You don't even realize there are vines gripping around your heart

A seed has been planted


I'm being stabbed in the back of a van, begging for help

Screaming for help...

And yet they jog the sidewalk

They've put me on mute.

Now let it sink in........

My lungs are collapsing as I die of the incapability to breathe
The only help I have is intentionally muting me
I am valueless when I am simply one grape out of a bowl of fruit
As I'm stabbed by demons, only I can hear my screams
The human lens is cracked
What you see is not real
I am not in need of pity
I am in need of your will
Get new lenses
Someone needs your help
Don't put me on mute...for your comfort.
I'm an advocate of those who are silenced, suffocating, and dying for the chance to breathe...

I bug you don’t I?

I can tell…

We could have peace.

But yet we yell.

How are we friends?

Cause we are not…

For you just wished, that I would rot.

And all the eyes that start to stare,

I wonder how did they get there.

You like to watch me suffer.

Why?

Your bitter eyes want me to die.

Did you let them plant evil seeds?

Cause I can see the potent weeds.

I feel for your pitiful soul.

Tell me, what is it,

What’s your goal?

Do you want me to go away?

That love, we had,

It did decay.

But why do you think I’m a moth?

You aren't a flame sitting on cloth.

I’m not attracted to you though.

Of course, I’m not and you would know.

So stop the animosity.

Don’t use your powers to be mean.

I will use Sage if I have to.

You’ve died and now your soul is due.

I can show mercy, don’t be scared.

Just remember, I never cared.

I was your friend, cause I’ve no fear,

But you hit me, I’ve lost a tear.

I'd had it,
No more,
I am done.

I’m not afraid, I’m not the one.

So what If I may seem crazy.

Why would I let them just faze me?

OF course, I would no longer mourn.

Why do you seem so freaking torn?

It’s time to end this drama now.

You were the reason this was foul.
