Her
let the pain from my past
be the ink that bleads from my body
onto paper

turning pain into power
turning feelings into words

Grand Piano
Mirror mirror on the wall
Whose the saddest of them all
Take my fist
Punch through the wall
Take some pills to end it all
Crawl crawl back to me
Second chance at agony
Happiness yes that’s the key
No more crying please help me
A little closer then you’ll see
The pain that’s truly eating me
Take me out of my head
Teach me to smile instead
Sometimes I’d rather be dead
And some days I can’t leave the bed
I just wanna smile like I mean it
Love like I never did
Run with the wind instead
Hold me like you mean it
Let this feeling never end
Didn’t really have a plan on where I wanted this poem to go when I started writing this. But I’m pretty happy with the end result.

Warning!
Not a poem for
The squeamish!
''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''
"How it works"
Boundary lines are breached
Pain is arbitrarily served
Nerves placed on a torture rack
Love stretched in opposing directions
A new vocabulary of meaningless words
Punishing piercing looks of content
In a mindless separation
Needs remain unfulfilled
Fractured realities
Something to share
A second chances of lies
And somehow
Broken trust survives..
Traveler Tim

A walk through madness
That bleeds the soul
Careful
The seeds your Karma sows

mel
in a quiet room
there's voices all around.
bouncing from the ceiling
to the floor,
surrounding the safe space
I've made alone.
I want to know what goes
on in your mind, because I'm
sick of mine.
every time I leave,
I wish I would've stayed.
quickly pushing my way through
the thin walls of this place.
there is a vast, empty space
between you and the thoughts
in my head.
lead me back to where
I thought I could be safe.
now the voices are
coating my mind like honey.

Thick forest, blankets
The open air.
Pines and maples
Smell naturally fresh.
All worries, float away.
Eyes open to a new day.
