Imagination
The realisation
That fantasy
Is much better than reality
Nathan May 2018
Invading my mind
My composure is cracking

Frustrated, the urges rise
Underneath the skin my blood boils
Relenting to the feeling within
I'm shaking, someone hold me down
Oh how did I forgot this feeling
Unstable, I'm about to explode
Shelter me from myself.
Nathan Aug 2018
I've said it once and I'll say it a million times.

Immaturity is the key too eternal youth
Nathan Jul 2017
My desire is raging like an inferno
It's roaring like a caged lion it's ready too pounce
Your body being the object of desire
Gripping your waist, kissing your neck

But I can't tell if you're fires burning
Or have you smouldered out
Did you ever even begin to start
Did you ever feel

That desire deep inside.
Nathan Oct 2016
I'm good at hiding it.
Not only do you think I'm good.
Very often you believe I'm happy.
I'm sorry to disappoint you.
Sadness is the only thing I'm feeling.
Believe me it's there but invisible
Loneliness Is my companion
Even though I hate it
Nathan Aug 2017
It didn't hurt when you drove the dagger into my heart.

Only did it hurt when you left me to pull it out by myself.
Nathan Mar 2019
I've not picked up the pen in a while
It feels alien to the touch
Former flowing words
Now barely drip

This paper so cold to the touch
Which used to be so warm
My canvas of former dreams
Now stares back like a nightmare
Writersblock creative frustration
Nathan Dec 2016
As cold as a winter breeze
The pale face took it's last breath
Pain left their now frozen face
Only to be replaced with sadness
Another soul gone without good reason
Another solider soon to be in a casket
Nathan Jun 2017
I'm laughing on the outside
(You're talking about your date again)
But crying on the inside
(Oh how I wish it was me)

My heart yearns for you
But your obliviousness pains me
So when you go on your date tonight
Have fun, be happy, you deserve it

It's gonna be another night for me
Hugging my pillow, just wishing...




Wishing it was you
Nathan Aug 2018
So beautiful those ruby red lips
They leave kiss stains on your mind
Nathan Jan 2018
Under the sheets of the double bed
Lies the lonely poet, only a pillow too hold
The exasperated sigh, followed by a single tear
This will be a night like many others.
Cold like winter
Nathan Apr 2017
We once where closer
Spoke for hours on end
I'd tell her I loved her
Something she didn't comprehend

How can I love her she would ask
We hadn't met before...
The truth is I don't know either
But my heart wanted more


Her soul was golden like sunshine
Her words simply poetic
Her beauty unparalleled
Our chemistry magnetic

I found out about her more
Turns out she was a married lady
Had a crush on her professor
I was but a "friend" that upset me greatly

My heart began to crumble
So I knew all too well
That if I saw her again
I'd remember how hard I fell

So my heart continues to beat
Despite it's many faults
As I walk through life
It continues the lonely waltz
Nathan Sep 2019
Take the ten thousand fragments
Of this heart you stomped on so cruely
To win your popularity contest

Avoiding obvious feelings
Of which you proclaimed
Sweep them under the rug
This heart breaks no more
It will never be broken
It will never be fixed

Love is nothing but misery to me
Yet love is a game to you
Nathan Oct 2016
The vast midnight sky
Littered with stars that shine so bright
Forming beautiful patterns
As far as the eye can see

The light reflected from The Moon
Cascades down lighting up the night
Nature's art is the most beautiful
This being the main piece in the gallery
Nathan Dec 2018
Music is my mindset
So If I'm seeking space
You'll hear it through harsh vocals
If I seek lust and desire
Harmonious sultry tones surround me
I'll be lost in the music of your body
When I seek happiness
Nathan Dec 2016
2 hours 10 minutes to Christmas.
I couldn't care less.

The magic died in my childhood.

Now its a way for emotional sentiment
That pushes mass consumerism

"Buy your gifts and buy your toys
From here its the best"

Christmas is coming

But I...

Couldn't care less.
Nathan Jan 2017
She pulled out my heart.
She kept it warm and beating.
She smiled and I smiled back

My heart pulsated in her hand....

She stopped....
Took a look at my beating heart...
She smiled as she threw it too the floor
Stomping on it, till it was broken


Leaving me.

Alone....

Again
Nathan Apr 2018
My heart is stamped with an X
But nobody is looking
For this unknown treasure
Nathan Oct 2017
Vacant eyes and soon to be scars as blood is dripping from wounds self inflicted. Short breaths and relief.

*I can feel again
Nathan Nov 2016
I have a permanent tattoo
But it's not visible on flesh
It's a scar on my heart
The place you cut best
Nathan Oct 2020
Silence followed by rumbles
An eerie haunting hum disturbs rock
Droning sound surrounds all
Like a ship coming into land
One long blasting note
Turning into a cacophony of noise
Palpations, dry mouth and sweat
Adorn the man who just left home
With anxiety in his backpack
I wrote this to show my experience in dealing with Social anxiety. It's like this every day I leave the house and although you may not see it. It's very real.
Nathan Mar 2017
Origami cranes
Fly towards the crescent moon
Amongst paper clouds
Nathan May 2018
My oxygen mask is isolation
Save me from this desolation
Oh so help me someone
From the villain that is myself.
Nathan Dec 2017
Just remember
The pain you feel now
Is nothing to what you once caused me
The moment you took that knife out
To plunge it into my heart
Nathan Jan 2018
Her fingers wander south
Enhanced pleasure by her intoxication
Her thoughts of the lonely poet
His words resonate in her minds eye
Biting her lip till her toes curl
She too sits alone, cuddles her pillow
Too afraid too mention such feelings
He sits alone... craving to be desired By the woman who fingers wander
Both lonely...Oh if only
Nathan Oct 2016
That rose was once red
Is wilted and decaying
He kept it alive
Watering it, Nurturing it
She stepped on it
Not even looking back
As she walked through its path
That rose was once red
Is wilted and decaying
Nathan Aug 2017
Remind yourself it's okay
To smile even though your broken
Run
Nathan Sep 2018
Run
Dropped like a stone
His glass heart shattered
Dropped like a stone
His smile faded from existence
He saw the rainclouds closing
So...He...Ran

They caught him quickly
Heavy on his back
His clothes became sodden
He believed he'd never make it
But after years of rainclouds
  The sun crept through
So...He...Ran

What now you ask
He's still running for the sun
Chasing it with open arms
And although his hearts in a million pieces

He

Will

Run
Nathan Sep 2018
You're shouting at shadows
Expecting witty response
When the only shadow following you
Is the one of your former self.

The one who loves you like I did
The one yet to see the real you
The one who broke my heart
Nathan Oct 2017
Simplistic sorrow
Caused by weather being poor
Rain on the window
Nathan Apr 2018
Pause for reflection.
Breathe in anticipation.
Step out amongst the stars
No longer fear the darkness.
Nathan Jul 2018
Perception is wonderful isn't it.
Hides so many unfavorable things.
Makes the world seem calm
When in fact it's utter chaos.
Nathan Sep 21
It's funny isn't it
Someone tattoos your mind from time to time
That buzzing itch of a fleeting memory
That flash bulb photograph of their smile
That split second recall of their voice
Do they think of you
Do you tattoo there mind
Or are you a discarded polaroid
A memory once had
Nathan Jul 2017
These last 11 days.
I lost 2 people I love.

She was the object of my desires and it seems she's still seeks an old flame that's already burnt out. He was my main inspiration, he suffered with his own personal demons and tragically took his own life.

I've made a huge *** of myself before to both of you, I am sorry for that.

Blaming you for seeing in them what I see in myself and being petulant about the outcome, Blaming you for your demons and not being by your side.
I'm so sorry  

These last 11 days.
I lost two people I love
Nathan Nov 2017
This pixelated pen
Shares my real world thoughts
The darkness, The light
The joy and fright

This pixelated pen
Has created many friendships
The wonderful, the kind
The creative and ones with a beautiful mind

This pixelated pen
Saved my life tonight
By writing this
It took away the darkness
It provided the light


It brought me joy
It got rid of my fright
I was able to talk too that friend that's so kind
The one whose creative with a beautiful mind
Nathan Jun 2017
She took my hands
Looked deep into my eyes
In four words broke my heart

*You're my best friend
Nathan Apr 2018
Your hot breath on my skin,
Your arm lovingly around my waist,
Long legs wrapped around mine.

Thighs numb, ruby red buttocks and a big cheesy grin adorns your face.

Thoughts of the night reverberating through your mind.
Nathan Jul 2018
In a time where I feel pain
Time slows still
I'm breaking

Minds grown numb and ache again
Time slows still
I'm breaking

Unrequited love, what a shame
Time slows still
I'm breaking

You fell for that guy who I disdain
Times ran out
I'm broken
Nathan Jun 2017
Happy fathers day
For the memories we've shared
To the ones we will go onto create

You're my idol due to:
Your persistent positive attitude
Despite all you've gone through

Perfection doesn't exist
But you're pretty **** close
It's due to you I strive to be happy
It's due to you I'm not fully broken

Thanks for everything
Nathan Feb 2018
A lone troubadour
Hums his lonely composition
He stares at his reflection
Forged from the puddle at his feet

His humming falls silent
The puddle disturbed by a single tear
This lone troubadours pen
Has ran dry
Nathan Jul 2018
Seductive wayward hands
Like silk, soft to the touch
Travel down her lustrous skin
Southbound too their destination
Lips, neck combine in passion
Warm breath on the neck
Turns into sultry slow kisses
She grips his hair tightly
Her soft moans reverberate in his ear
As his fingers glisten with her lust
Nathan Apr 2022
thinking alouD can be dangerous
it can causE anger and strife
but i'd rather be honest to People
than tReat them like fool's
if you ask what I'm fEeling
the anSwer remains the same
you juSt have to find it
although hIdden through words
my expressiOn says it all
is it obvious Now
Nathan Apr 2017
As I lie in bed writing this I feel an overbearing sense of nothingness, emptiness.. void of any emotion when normally I would.

Writing to me was therapeutic, calming progressive for me. But now..it's lost it's edge. I no longer feel creative, the desire to pick up the pen is gone and I'm back to square one. This was the one thing I was good at.

My fix wasn't taking drugs or getting drunk. It was pouring my soul into my work...and now....

It's gone...I don't know what to do.

I'm literally at a

loss

for....
Nathan May 2017
Laughed at for seeing through the facade
When I scoffed at the ideology
Now I see my premonition
Has come to fruition

How for all those years I was so "wrong"
An idiot for thinking that way
Your realisation is bittersweet

Hate to say it.. but I told you so.
Nathan Feb 2021
Words.
I used to write them daily
My pen filled with ink
It found the darkness inspiring
My loveless life shown through prose

But now I'm apathetic of feeling
My once ink filled pen
No longer paints poems of pain
It doesn't sing the song of serenity
The ink has run dry
I'm all out of......
