Who knows if you can keep me smiling
Permanently
For an eternity
Because past pains still live in my heart
And serge through my veins
The thought of you not being here
Has already started to turn this smile upside down
So take the camera and snap now
And distill this glimpse of happiness into a thin fragile frame

I urge to feel your lips
Not out of lust
But I’m hoping when we kiss
I can taste your trust
Will it be sweet a soft
And slick like a buttery croissant
Would I get lost In the texture
Lose control and barley keep my composure
Are your kisses thrilling like a roller coaster ride
Because I love the rush
And getting me pumped up full of adrenaline
Is a must
Are your kisses full of life
Because if so
Hopefully you can turn on the lights inside my darken soul

Words from inside ft Sam

I’ve hurt enough
At the point of giving up
But when I look in your eyes
And catch a glimpse your smile
You make me forget
I got the worse luck with love

Now I realize
You are my healing
The first and the last
Could we trust In destiny
I can’t see the end of this
I just want to feel your kiss
Just one time on my lips
I realize how much I need you
And how much I love you

Til Death

Clears throat
Even when I try to breath it hurts

Because inside everythin is broke
I want to be helped

But afraid of being healed
Slam shut my eyes, and pretend everything is not real

Control by my vicious thoughts
Trapped in my **** mind

I want out
Have the key to the locked door

But barricaded myself in
I’m In pain

It’s stiffing
Pretending no, delusional maybe so

It’s as real as the wind
And I’ve been at war inside my own skin

Almost beating into submission
But I refuse to give up

I’ll fight my demons two by two
Welcome them aboard my ark

And I’ll win
No matter what

Or til death
Do us part

Poem #414

You’re 24
Inside you’re colder then the morning tide
And the anger you carry around
Hotter then the sunrise
It’s been awhile since another has made your heart soar
Maybe that’s why your hide
Is thicker then a Russian boar
So caught up in not getting emotionally attached
You lost that thing that made you human
Buried everything down so deep
That the soil weeps
Keep this up
And you’ll die before you ever feel your heartbeat

A.M.A.H

Scared of the dark
Sleep with the lights on
Afraid of what creeps in the night
Double chains so no one gets in
Disfigured
Mental
Demons aren’t real
But what walks the earth
Might just be the thing
That drags you away and tear you apart
Rips you limb from limb
Pluck your eyelashes one by one
What a nuisance
Step over you like loose ends
Demeaning remarks if you not to thin
Born to lose if your skin is to dark
Shots fired
Everyone run
He’s got a gun
But you all pulled the trigger
He hates himself on the inside
So does she
Body shamed her cause her skin hung to low
Now she hangs from the ceiling
And her feet don’t touch the floor
Words hurt
Not everyone one is as strong as you
Fighting ourself
While trying to fight the world too
Round and round we go
It’ll never stop
There’s no such things as demons
But monsters are real
Because
All Monsters Are Human

Morphine

He’s no longer responding
It’s perplexing
Because no one knows why
Yesterday he was doing just fine
And in this room it’s frightening quite
Because everyone knows he’s about to die
His mother angrily yells at the doctor
While she stands over his bed
Why! Why!
My baby
This is my son
And he’s not going to die
Devante Devante
I can hear her repeating my name
But the sounds of the world has finally gone mute
And the lights of the room ceiling
Slowly
Fade to black
And if you crying over my shoulder right now
I’m sorry
I tried to fight it
But I just couldn’t fight my way back
I was to lost
Let myself be overcome with pain and misery
Unhappiness was my purgatory
But at what cost
My life
Yes my life
I gave it away
I’d do anything just to feel a little less
It’s why I injected myself
With an illegal amount
Of morphine

Poem #411

Loves doesn’t last forever
But a broken heart does
My heart was already in pieces
Before love ever invaded me
Now I’m loveless and heartless
Hoping that’s happiness is getting closer with every breath I breathe
