I think you told a lie today
about the shadow on your mind.
I think you plan to die today,
and leave these follies far behind.

I wish you would write me a song,
and ink the truth within its verse.
Happy or sad, it's fine, so long
as this does not end in a hearse.

Cut
I break myself
Into tiny peices
On the floor
Left to the dust once more

I cut myself
Till blades are blunt
I feel pain no more

****** and raw
You can’t hurt me anymore

Mom
I love you now
I loved you then
If you were here I'd say it again

she gave me her nudes
she was bare
and naked
and so out
and open
and i willingly
accepted it
because it wasnt the nudes
that showed her body
the physical aspects
that made her beautiful
it was the words
she didnt choose
and the spontaneity
that left her
either from her lips
or her fingers
or ink

she was as bare
as her nudes
and i accepted
her for her.

she is a happy ending,
not everyone can wait for.

I felt the earth crack beneath my feet
and I assumed the world was about to reach defeat.

But to my surprise ,
the ground began to raise and out popped a hep of soil with a seedling that began to uncoil.

Beneath the souls of my feet , new life was to upheat and as my toes begin to touch the floor I feel grounded once more.

Till I hear a crack in the clouds
And the loudest of sounds. The sky began to fall and I assumed it was the end for us all.

But to my surprise
My fear slowly dies
as the smell of fresh air soars
throw the earths opened pores
as the scent is absorbed
My body is restored
The unknown can be scary and beautiful

Seeds scattered to root
Abundantly flowering
Overgrown gardens
