Im scarred for what iv done, and put to the extreme, "only god can judge me" they say.  Well I judge me, while god stares down shaking his head wondering what a **** up iv become. *** and money are my sins. I have nothing to offer a good girl but bad choices and past mistakes. We all have baggage, mine just hangs between my pants waiting to prove its self one more time. Im sick, no help, or words of motivation to change. I am who I am because I cant change. ****** up bi poler, *** crazed, schizophrenic ******* want to be ******* I am... hallelujah ******* god ******... a-*******-men
kyle Shirley Mar 2017
My insecurities is an infinite wall that will keep us separated.
kyle Shirley Jan 2018
I want you to notice when I'm not around.
Would it take for me to **** myself
Or to scream till you can't hear sound?
I'm lost,
inching closer to the edge of the abyss,
where insanity lingers,
escaping this crisis.
My loyatly to love has been betrayed
Emotions set aside,
feelings have been frayed.
Torched agony
With sinful tears
These winged serpents carry me though life
Alone I'll be for many years.
kyle Shirley Sep 2018
To the eighth wonder
From the seven seas
Across the sky I ponder
brings back memories
The wind brings your taste
Drifts pass my nose
Leaves me with such haste
The heinous storm grows.
Love is a hurricane
whirlwind of emotion and lust
Then comes the pain
Followed by mistrust.
Communication is dead
Alone my bed feels bigger
Things always left unsaid
I couldn't feel any less sicker
kyle Shirley Aug 2015
Helpless,
im held hostage by my emotions.
Pain,
has me strung up,
naked,
gun to the head, hoping for joy to come gallop into rescue this poor soul
A slave bound to you
The more I run away
The more you catch me
And whip me back to you.
kyle Shirley Jul 2018
People blame what they can see
That is why we never blame ourselves first.
kyle Shirley Oct 2018
Counting back the days
Counting, counting
Now it's a blurry haze
Cigarettes and Midnight silhouettes
Fueled my teenage years
It's time to fight these tears
Counting and counting
Walking home till dawn
Passed out on mother's lawn
Oh what a disgrace I've became
Counting, still counting
My skin and memories
Are like prison bars
Just strong enough to hold me
Not the  life momma wanted or fancy cars..
kyle Shirley Feb 2019
I took a trip to the unknown
Now the darkness has a hold on me
I'm starting to feel it in my bones
No longer is it a mystery
Hold me closer darkness
For now I see
Love is blinded
All it causes is misery
kyle Shirley Feb 2015
They say, "as I walk through the valley of the shadow of death I shall fear no evil"  for me I dont need to walk in the valley of death to fear no evil, I will only have to look in a mirror to fear it, for I am evil. I am the punishment that my enemy's have beset judgement onto me, because I can only truly be my own worst fear. A man soaked with sin and remorse longed to be free from the shackles of my father and his before him. Im outraged at the man iv become inside, so deep in hate for I am the last thing I wanted to be, fearful. The lost of my life or loved ones due to my incompetence of judgement. I fear I am lost mankind, and have failed myself and all of my dreams. For I am just a man with nothing left but words on a canvas.
kyle Shirley May 2017
When I kissed her, for the very first time, I knew my destiny had changed. For I didn't know it at the time, but I would love those lips, like i love the every tingle in my body when i see her, the warm hugs when she grips me so tight, and the way he hair smells when she does...

It aches with every fiber in my body that she is gone.
kyle Shirley Aug 2015
Why do we do things that we know are wrong and will still hurt others, especially the ones we love?
To feel alive or something.
Im not a bad man, iv tried my damnedest to be I good i swear.
But i guess you cant always get what you want, but if you try, you get what you need.
Im desperate, I think im having what you call a crisis of faith... Im a lover, yet im too much of one and cant do a thing right.
I need help lord.
kyle Shirley Feb 2016
She frightens me, scared to leave and move on.
I know iv found greatness in her but will never know if I find it again.

I still want her, I always will.

Maybe god or destiny has more in store for me.

But until then, I wait scared and alone.
kyle Shirley Oct 2015
Raise your glass to the tears of loves gone to past.

Drink up the sorrow of  lovers quarrel.

I lift up my drink to you my friend, soon one day love will find us right around the bend.

Driving tipsy down heartbreak road, love songs sing to me, straight to the soul.

If you loved me like I love you, we would share this half empty bottle of *****.

Cliche walks on the sand, I get on bended knee and give a gentle kiss on your hand.

I speak those words and you say yes! I lift you up "CLEAR....." (ok we have him back)

Sir can you hear me, you have just been an a car collision, we are on our way to the hospital now.

Drink, Drunk, Drank...
kyle Shirley Apr 2018
She is but a memory now.
I see her in all her beauty
But she's different

My love for a girl
Is lost with age
Not even lust
But more of an idea

She will never be
And I will never be
What once was
Never again

Yet I'll run right back
At her beck and call
A slave to the known
kyle Shirley Jun 2018
The blood orange moon pierced the night sky unveiling where demons lie,
True lovers intertwined
By the thighs
he moans, she crys

whereabouts unknown
some demons never shown.
Not even the darkness of night
Can conceal the blood moons light
kyle Shirley Sep 2017
Due to my Venomous tongue and countless manipulation towards women,
At the end of the night Im
poisoning myself with the bottle.
Struck with pain
sick with guilt,
driven by grief,
hiding all emotion of life.
Death looms over me smiling
Watching me spin my life in disaster.
God looks down and shakes his head in defeat for the vision I've become.

The insanity grows as i repeat the next day.
kyle Shirley Apr 2018
You don't understand how unpredictably unstable I can be
I'm more than just a body, for hire
If I chose not to work im fired
I lay awake at at night waiting for a fright that might wanna take a bite
Of poor old lonely me,
tiny,
knee high to a tree,
whom can barely read
let alone feed a family creed.

I'm poor, I'm a joke.
That's why I can't stop taking the last ****
Before I stoke, these
Heavier drugs like coke
I'll bloat if I don't diet
It's pretty silent, it's quiet
Until the riot breaks out
And traps the sun
Ain't it fun?
We are all just believing we are number one
But isn't that the loneliest sum?
I feel lost
But at what cost?
The coin I had to toss
In a well
To get swell
For better or for worst
This love is a hell...
kyle Shirley Dec 2015
The sadness dwells on my heart

A broken mind, miles apart.

Flashes of blue, blonde and glee

Memories tired, wanting to run free.

Love at first sight, blinded after first fight.

Tears pooled up at the eyes.

Woeful songs play as I cry.

Wishing of motivation to get better.

Cuddled up next to your warn out sweater
kyle Shirley Jul 2018
In the small corner of my mind
Resides a place where my memories lie
Inside that door
I stand cold and alone
Every memory is still as stone
I've made many attempts to escape
But depression starts to take shape
cherishing the happy thoughts like glass
Anything good never lasts
Close my eyes and begin to count sheep
Hopfuly these memories can go to sleep
kyle Shirley Aug 2016
I often get knocked back a few pegs when im on cloud nine,
when I feel so happy it's a crime.
People are homeless hungry and down right dying,
and here I am living, happy, barely trying.
My problems are money issues, being selfish, and lazy. I look to my dad, friends, family outlook is all so hazy.
I used to think I needed a girl to be happy, turns out life without one isn't all that ******.
My hopes and dreams are my to inspire arms wide out closely in my grasp to acquire.

No more anchors to weigh me down, when im done all will recognize my crown.
kyle Shirley Feb 2016
I ******* miss it.
Just someone there.
Not overthinking every little thing all the time.
To have peace with myself, to be calm.
I dint want to have some hood rat, some blonde *****.

I want her.
I hate running, but its the only way I get a piece of closure.
Music sending chills on my skin, the rumble of the road soothing my body.

To share that bliss with something then my own mind, my thoughts.
Iv confronted everyone of my demons,
yet refuse to let me go.
Hunted by these thoughts,
hunted by your happiness.
kyle Shirley Jul 2018
I've taken your talons out of me
Yet the poison still remains
Too soon for these wounds to heal
But the pain is still the same
The poison has weakened me
The melody of music fades
Coursing through my veins
Food has lost its taste
Everything is so black and white
Colorblind these days
Love is but a construct
Lust was just a phase
kyle Shirley Mar 2018
I ain't ever gonna have that cash and June love
That love that no matter how much you endure,
at the end of days that woman says yes.
I ain't ever gonna die of a broken heart, because you gotta have one to break first.
Lost doesn't fit to the feeling I have,
It's more like disappeared.
Lost implys you will be found...
My love is at the bottom of a bottle
It's white residue left on a table
It's anything to numb my numb
To get my mind off you
To forget what life was when I had love
When everything else won't do..
kyle Shirley Feb 2019
I gave you my heart
You kept it from the start
Wishing you would stay

Love is blind
Feelings combine
Now all i feel is hate

Gravity pulls my depression
Mentality going into recession
Everything we had went astray

Darkness creeps
Yet I weep
For loneliness seems to stay.
kyle Shirley Sep 2018
It's been ages since we met
A thousand times I have wept
All those nights I've barely slept
The memories haunt me yet Im kept
Spent my youthful twilight dreaming
Thoughts of redemption I'm still scheming
Bitter and old barely breathing
Alone in bed
death is creeping
All my life regret has stayed true
Alone and cold
my hands turn blue
Memories fade,
The last ones to leave are you...
kyle Shirley Mar 2016
What am I doing with my life?
I love a girl who doesn't want me,
Head over heels, drop what ever it is im doing to run to her.

You may think, stop, its just a girl, you will find a better one, just give it time and move on.... Yeah no.
This is is literally the woman I dream about, not in a ****** way, she honestly completes me, and she knows I complete her, she just is scared... She has no idea what she wants and defiantly does not want to waste her time on a fool like me.

I miss it, that feeling she gives me just by the touch. When she shows me at times that she wants me I go wild, and with out her I feel dead and gone. Life would not have meaning unless she's in it, by my side, as we push each other to be better. She calls me and just drags me along.
im already dead and gone.
kyle Shirley Sep 2017
I saw you,
for the first time since we parted ways.
I saw you with him and I felt at peace.
You deserve him.
He can make you smile and give you that clean slate at happiness that all my broken promises couldn't deliver.
He makes you happy.
I should let go.
I need to finally be at rest myself,
just know I'll always love you,
and never stop.
Everything I am,
everything I have
will always be yours.
My love for you is endless, every night on a blue moon ill light a candle and put it in my window, for if you ever need to find your way home, ill show you the way.
kyle Shirley Jun 2019
This poem is for you
After the night I made you blue.
The sunset washed with beautiful pink
All it took was 1 yes to a drink
Falling for you was like a shooting star
For all it took was that last bar...
My hopes and chances rocketing down
Sitting on cloud nine before, now it's a frown
God you wore that beautiful red dress
Here I sat the next day a babbling mess
A goddess you are to me
But not one part of you will hear my plea..
Dear Red this poem is for you,
Now this poem makes number two
Remember when x marks the spot?
Talking about that red mop on top?
You give me chills when your near
Now the chills are engulfed in fear
I'll never have another chance
Last Saturday night might be our last dance...
kyle Shirley Oct 2017
I looked into the eyes of the devil
as he stared back at me.
Smiling at the torture he was devising,
I told him look closer
I have already seen hell,
lived through that darkness,
Slept in the same bed with her.

I look into your eyes
and see the same pain
I've been through.
He stopped,
grin faded
stood up
and said
since the beginning
no amount of physical pain
Prepared me for her...
I welcome loneliness to come sit by me
it's the only thing that has left me yet.
kyle Shirley Mar 2015
release me from my demons, take away the pain. I'm done hurting myself, and my foes. I'm tired of being shackled, iv brought this on myself. the dark shadow that follows me, my self conscious all the wrong doings I've done. how can I forgive others when I can't forgive myself? why must I feel so low are doing nothing wrong? when does a good man become a bad man? this is many little bad things or one big bad thing? Or is it just something he was born to do? I'm tired of lying awake in my bed asking these questions. my brain won't settle down it knows too much, hopefully when I'm done punishing myself I will be absolved of my so called "sins". although I have yet to lay in bed with another *****, I still feel *****, unclean, I'm beginning to fall for another but how could I even think someone would fall for such a disgrace as myself? she looks at me and lights up like I'm the best thing on feet, my words are perfect, my intentions are good, but when I look into a mirror all I see is a broken old man in tattered slave clothes with nothing to offer anyone. if she only knew how I looked at her, the pedestal I've created, she wouldn't look at me the same she would probably walk away like everyone else. so I ask again so politely release me from my demons, please release me from myself.
kyle Shirley Feb 2019
Darken skies
cloud my mind
Leave me with tearful eyes
We fought through the lies
Her and I
But forgotten I haven't tried
For on my end
Love hasn't died.
kyle Shirley Sep 2018
He never spoke about his feelings
They were his to hide
The best kept secret
Till he was too late
Hand in hand
With another man
His dreams
And thoughts of desire
With her
Started to disappear
He could hear the echo
Of laughter as they walked further
Might as well been fate
Mocking him for his mistake
A secret he will keep to his grave
kyle Shirley Feb 2019
She looked at me and spoke with vicious words
"Back to the hole I found you in,
into that mask you hate
The life you couldnt bare
This will always be your fate
i want you to wear that mask
Till you love it!
Till you die in it.
You are unfit to look at me.
You are unfit to love me."
And just like that,  
the mask fit...
Like I had never...
Taken...
It...
Off.
kyle Shirley Feb 2018
As we part ways
branching into our own journeys,
I look back to see if you look back at me to..
When I stop and stare,
Waiting for any response,
I only see your head held high
never skipping a beat,
i feel foolish
for going on this long.
without the same care.
Without any desire for me.
I look forward
Memories rewinding in my head
Playing back the tape
To keep me company
On my journey ahead.
kyle Shirley May 2016
I feel like I have too much love to give now.
I feel like I cant wait for the road ahead of me.
I'm tired of lust, meaningless *** or one night stands. I want a first kiss that will last a lifetime.
I feel like I have these wounds that will never heal, nor will I want them too, makes me understand more about what I felt, learn what is real.
I want you more then I want the sun, and as you know im scared of the dark.
Love you like the work day is long.
If you met someone ill be here,
If you left someone ill be here,
If you are happy being you ill be here,
If your married ill be here
Im I'm still with you we are just on different schedules.
I just wanna know if your happy
kyle Shirley Oct 2018
Our Lust for flesh Has got to end
No empathy for human kind
The digital eye has made the world blind
*** craved teens to
Marching hybrid death machines
Ending our suffering
With Satire life memes
No need for begging
We have apps for that
Taking selfies with our cat
At the tables playing craps
Gambling our student loans
"Don't worry mom I'm grown"
Buying time we will never own
School never prepared us for this
Every new drug we take creates bliss
We don't have time to mourn our loss
Even if it comes at great cost
kyle Shirley Mar 2020
Smiling when you text has my heart pounding
Grinning from ear to ear, is astounding.
Minutes turn into hours.
No one has conversations like ours
Happy to be cute and smiling with you
Then..
Minutes turn into hours
Where did you go? Do I send flowers?
Who else are you making smile?
Who else are you making this final?
I see your not responding to me.
Left on read so randomly
Where did smiling go wrong?
Why did we agree we finally belonged.
kyle Shirley Jan 2015
she was different, so he liked her. he wasn't by any means ordinary so she grew on him. he loved her with every breath he took, even down to his last...and she knew it.he can never really have her, the love that is, another possessed it.so he protected her without acknowledgment she didn't even know he was there. he watched her for nothing in return. her living was more than enough. her memory would just break him if she wasn't here. But the day came... When her and the one she love past... He broke. You he fell just like the girl he loved. No matter the protection, safeguard he tried... It was going to happen. Not a day goes by he doesn't think about her. Her memory is all he's got, till that fades with age and death. He won't, couldn't love another, like he did for her. Thought about her often and with her memory came happiness... For the time when he could hold her when they were young. Play like children and laugh together. Every time the memory ends the same way, one tear, a wipe of the hand, breathe in, out, and keep moving forward. He looks happy, beautiful, because he lived with love, although he couldn't hold her, he loved her. That's what matters to him that's all he needed to live.
kyle Shirley Sep 2018
You are loved.
Even if it's not by her or him
You are loved.
That man that smiles at you
Or the woman that likes all your sad posts
You are loved.
If your father never hugged you
Or your mother was never around
You are still loved by many
Before you hurt yourself
Look at who you will hurt by doing so
That little boy that looks up to you
That co worker that you make laugh
Don't forget you are loved and will be missed
kyle Shirley Jan 2016
You showed me one of your most beautiful creatures you ever made. The most caring and compassionate woman I've ever met. What do i do? I go and squander it. It's always been about a girl... Its what pulls my heart strings and gives me hope. I guess thats the root of my problems... abandonment issues more or less. I seek beautiful, lovely, smart and caring women and I chase them away. I know im not good enough to keep them, so, I make a reason for them to leave. I cry out to the lonely voice in the sky for advice or guidance, and I feel more lost then ever.
kyle Shirley May 2016
Pity, that's all that was.
Faking it, just because.
loneliness made me weak
attention is all you seek
why care about what you feel?
When none of it has been real.
Except getting me between the sheets
And ******* me until you admit defeat

(which coincidentally wasn't longer than 5 minutes)

Thrive on being the one with power
Leaving you without answers
My walls made this Tower.

Trust is something you misuse in your game

just like me,

a glass, once broken is never the same.

I'm learning my lesson
And sorry, but you will never win.

What do you call a saint who knows how to sin?

Oh I remember now...
a liar
a phony
a crook
try all of the above...
when she writes
kyle Shirley Jul 2018
I know your home alone
And your crying on the phone
Your left with so much hurt
And I only see you in spirts
And it kills
It's shrill
But just imagine the thrill
The cold chill of the night
Don't hate me out of spite
I gotta do what I think is right
No longer can we fight
It takes all of my might
To stop that beast that's inside
The one you choose to hide
From the world you chose to help
But instead you indulge yourself
We both can't sink in this ship
And I'm just tired of your ****.
kyle Shirley Jan 2015
I had a dream about her again... she was mine like always. But something always happens in it where we are not together. Like the dream just makes me happy with what I want, taunts me, then shes gone. I mess up again like I did in life or she just disappears.  Dreams are the only thing I look forward too, bc she does come walking back into my life. " I miss the air so much, I miss my wife, its so lonely out in space, on such a timeless flight... I think its gonna be long long time, till touch down brings me around again to find, im not the man I think I am at home..." perfection and happiness is just... a dream.
kyle Shirley May 2019
Her soft lips
Long finger tips
Running down my skin
A parade of goosebumps March
As she begins to grin
Having complete control Over my body
Thinking of something to say
My words become sloppy
Over Thinking takes place
Nervous, she continued to make way
Destruction to my psyche legs begin to quake
She keeps me quiet no need to hesitate
Alarm goes off, I spring awake...
kyle Shirley May 2017
Every night it blows my mind
Because your the most hideous thing in sight.
Not on the outside because your beauty is so bright,
but on the inside I fight the beast with all my might.
kyle Shirley Feb 2019
Hello god
It's me again
Drunk and alone
At Home
And wonderin
I need help rememberin
It's hard trying
To write again
I'm sufferin
The walls are closing in
She's gone and smilin
I'm left in denial
Again...
kyle Shirley Nov 2017
She is the weather.
Ever changing my mood
Happy as a sunny day
To a vicious cycle of rain
I'm clueless what to expect
She is fun when we play
other days
she rips through carelessly.
I steer clear and watch her destroy.
She is the weather.
You can always count on the weather to be..
*Weather.
kyle Shirley Apr 2016
Iv never
been able
to tame my demons,
iv just kept
them on a leash...

I use them to guide me
From my past,
But remind me
I have a future.
kyle Shirley Dec 2017
What I've gathered in my time under the blistering sun and in the coldest of winter Tundra, love is the light.
Love has warmth and hope that anything is possible, that when you leap and close your eyes love catches you in full embrace.
Open your mind and cast out shame and ego, find love. Find that spark in your life and chase it as if its a live wire to the soul.
Love gets lost along the way of life, but search for it again and again like you did for the vary first time. Don't cast away something special because it's too hard, embrace the rough patch to find that love is greater now than it ever was before.
kyle Shirley Feb 2020
I'm a **** lab.
Your my rehab.
So Dont feel bad
These toxic traits are my craft
Mother couldnt see that
Gave up to relax
****** up and relapsed
Drunk on you, I collapsed
Self loathing has surpassed
Happiness was just a mask.
