home

my heart yearns for a place
where i get to call "home"
it'll be my own
just me all alone
where i can learn things and make things
be home grown
somewhere i won't feel unknown
where i can be sitting on my throne
and nothing will be destroyed like a cyclone

at times i feel like i'm going to erupt
like a volcano
or crumble like the berlin wall
or be like humpty dumpty
and take a fall
or break into pieces like the berlin wall
but instead i stand strong like an oak
not this time i will not choke

just rambling

Maps

i wish i had some guidance
someone to take me the right way
give me directions
i'm stuck in this maze
i'm in a daze
counting down the days
to get over this phase

tell me

tell me

tell me how
the most broken
beaten down
torn up
stripped to the flesh
people

could ever get back up
brush off the dirt
and carry on
like nothing ever
happened.

drunk on you

drunk on you

your name is
forbidden in
my mouth
or in my heart
because when
i think about
you;

i'll cry a little more,
hurt a little stronger
love a little softer
because you no longer
make me feel sober

i'm drunk on the
memory of you

if only i could chase you with pizza but shots don't work like that

❝to me❞

to me,
you are
an art

                              to you,
                              I was
                              a tragedy

you still remain, and will always be
a fine piece of art
to me.
// edit: thank you for having this in the daily. ♡

It's in my Nature

It's in my Nature

My honest concern goes to Mother Nature
For she proves as fickle as I
A late September with the winds of December,
A truly wicked surprise

But she has my understanding not scolding
For too many times have I,
Taken what was once a peaceful October
And scorched it with the fires of July

Great or Small?

Dez

Great or Small?

I think all wish to be great
At some point in time
But if all were great
Then what would separate you and me?
Nothing I say and put forth these words
To tell my brother that why some would call us commoners
We all are great but fail to see it
Because we focus on our similarities.
But in truth we all are different
And the each has greatness
For all are made in God’s image.

gore

gore

Break my bones;
cut my throat.
Pull me open,
learn the ropes.

Breath me in;
taste the fear.
Shank my skin;
stand and cheer.

Kick my head;
let me bleed.
Unbolt my veins;
enjoy the read.

Gouge my eyes;
punch my face.
Wrap me up
in your embrace.

Get to know me like I do you; inside and out.

P'u River

The simple beauty
of an uncarved block of stone
is almost sublime.

To be everything
and nothing at the same time --
God is in the stone.
