My lips emitted         lies.
My eyes exposed      the truth.
I fell into                     oblivion.

after a while

***** turns to water
and all of a sudden
it doesn't burn like it used to.

dancing turns to kissing
turns to *******

mistakes you can't take
back with the door wide open.

"this isn't free ****!"
at least someone
is looking out for me,
because I sure as hell ain't.

the truth turns to rumors
as pinocchio's nose grows.

"that's not what happened!

not exactly"
I try to salvage what's left
of my reputation.

but then again,
I was too drunk to
know what really did happen.

You exploded in my life
like someone finally threw back the curtains
on my darkness

I remember that crooked grin
Knowing more than you said
And saying more than you knew

I never understood though
What I'd gotten myself into
When I fell for you

Nine years later I look back
Five and a half years I gave you
Do you realize that?

I kept my virginity
You still stole my innocence
When you made my mind your Playground

Then you left it broken
Forgotten and abandoned

Something Simple
Stay silent or speak,
Glide past everything
Or get
Stuck with stigma
Over originality

Keep silent and observe
Or
Jump in
Get stuck in a fire storm.

Two friends,
Past arguments.
Stress I don’t need.

Maybe I’m a coward.
I see both possible sides,
Always surprised
How vicious people
Get over simple things.

Make changes,
Compromise,
Behave like adults.
Don’t ruin this for more people.
Please.

Not jumping in the tide
will not acknowledge these things
probably never will.

sometimes creativity
comes from the broken places
cracked pots, the greys of your life

if i could i would
skillfully navigate through
though it causes pain

i'll get there somehow
by hook or by crook they say
paddle up-river

Sun is moving west;
dark clouds are going east. Then,
the sun disappears.

Quiet
Sometimes I like to rip my heart out so I can stop
feeling. Sometimes I like to lay in the sky and
die. Sometimes I sleep.
