How come people only want to miss you, after you're gone?
As if life isn't precious... How can some be so malicious?
We live in an era of self pity followed by a sense haunting remorse.
Like caring for one another is nothing more than a few daunting chores...
To caught up in ourself, forgetting about everyone else...
Quick to put those we "love" straight to the back of the shelf,
Why is it we never step to the plate,
Maybe we need to analyze how we feel before it's far too late..
Instead they're putting on a mask like its just another face..
Not knowing one another, is this an abyss or a typical masquerade?
Feeling lost in a nightmare, am I alive, am I awake?
Why are all these people pretending we aren't the ones all along, who have been acting fake.

I don't have that much love left to give
I don't have that much time left to live
Its become so daunting & arduous
In a constant war with Lucifer,
Yet before he departs he brings a parting gift

Turned to substances in search of Bliss
Even so the pain still persists
Life is a fog that I cannot simply dismiss
No relief to be found,
Lost for eternity wandering forever in the mist

Desperate for a sense of peace & solace
Spiting God wishing I had never even exist
Instantaneously filled with regret but unable to resist
In the mirror stands my executioner,
Maniacally laughing as I tremble in his midst

Felt an itch right beneath my fist
Scratched & clawed until I slit my wrist
Now I'm sure you got the gist
Blood covers the entire ground,
Not a single spot missed

Thoughts of where things went amiss
Begin to cry and remenice
As I plunge deeper into the abyss
Loss of any type consciousness
Now I truly understand pure Bliss

Salutations,
With a kiss

One unfathomable inhale
she begins to dance with constalations
beneath a crescent moon
frolics and flirts
at a quarter til two

music flows throught the valley
ever suave and susurrous
encumbered with exuberance
hypnoticly sways
synced to the mystical tune

locked between a velvet nose
eyes remaining entombed
under curtains enclosed
for a moment unbarred
unlocks an entire cosmos

feeling exquisite the dark
with newly found felicity
liberated and free
graceful as a swan
now approaching a half past 3

heaven would reveal
an angelic type appeal
mentally I scream
still physically conceal

waving around as ocean tide
observing I've become entranced
under a spell utterly memorized
desperately pleading for time to stop
with a tick it then strikes 5 o'clock

never more engulfed in awe
a marvelously breathtaking sight
she's preposterously luminous
more than the brightest starlight
twas the furthest thing from a fly by night

A search for happiness
Will be a futile attempt
This applies to all
Nobody exempt

The key is how you think
You must have an open mind
Other aspects you must see
Good luck, farewell
I hope you find it
Before you run out of time

Yesterday gone
Never returned
Feelings wrong
Lessons learned

Today's anew
Time endowed
Seconds pursue
Age avowed

Tomorrow ahead
Always outruns
Possibly dead
Promises none

Short + true
