This is how love
flies through a needle.
Forgetting about the past and
running around the world.
All in a single leap.
This is how love
dies,
gasping for air in a fish tank.
Forget the future,
punch the mirror until it hurts.
Glass shards falling on the floor.
Reflecting on the all the world's sins.
There can only be one.
Sacrifices.
Betrayal.
Laughing at the clown,
that tries to tame the lions.
This will blur the lines
between forgiveness and anger.
Which will help you survive?
The Prince and the Pauper.
Oh,
this is how the fire
becomes a flame.
One wish at a time.
Innocence.
The lions are hungry.
They have been caged for the last time.
The music begins to play.
Mozart.
Dance to the beat of
a thousand soldiers,
flying into the sun.
One day,
in the very distant future,
this will still not make sense.
Hear,
touch,
taste,
electricity.
Please,
take solace in that fact.
Falling into mythology at break neck speed.
It is wonderful,
knowing that everything can fail.

Understanding is about
conquering insecurity
small minds
need rules to be kind
graphs and math
show us a soft safe path
J. Evans Prichard P.H.D.
who are we to ask him to teach
because now there is
no need for students to reach
all poetry's merits are ***** and laid bare
to wake to such a world
would give me a true scare
instead show me a sonnet above my head
that I read and read and finally get in bed
how scary is an unknown world
and yet I still prefer the mysterious dark pearls
Please watch

The predator invading my thighs
did not care for words
It burned me with smug smiles
and cold hands,
carpet covered in dog **** pressing
against my back.
Turning my sanctuary into my
prison,
my own flesh into fear,
made my body need healing.
It punctured me with your venom
but no one has ****** it out yet,
trust me,

I've made them try.

Don't touch my gold,you know I dont like it
penning about life the way i like it

I sympathize with hoes,and drug addicts
Forced by the lords to circulate it
Even though, they don't matter, they still dislike it
Victims of circumstances where's humanity
We cry blood as tears but nobody gets it

You strive for gold,but can never have it
You beg for storms with low spirits
Why cling to the unknown and be a *******
I know, it's impossible to escape sadists
I feel for you that's why I wrote this
When love was blessed and that's it
this is for those slave girls
a life of no choice but many consequences

inspired by people who love money with so much love
I’ve felt “us” and “we”
and I’ve felt alone, together
two parts missing something vital.
I wish you didn’t do that
and I wish we didn’t feel this way.
but we do, and it’s totally our fault.
looking for something to hold
so I’m not as lonely.
today I learned a lava lamp is the closest substitute for a hug I can find.
