Behind her eyes I can see
Inside her heart and in her soul
Her veins and all her bones
All are painted gold

reading
old material
from depressed
me is like walking
into hell with a parka
and an umbrella.

reading
old material
from pessimistic
you is like eating a
chocolate covered
pine cone.

Old me, who are you?
A boy that I once knew, but know no more
Solidified in space and time,
Innocence, cursed

I feel it within me
It’s not pain, it’s anger but not anger
It’s not self pity but something more than regret
Where are you?
Why am I?
Will it work or am I just 10/6?
It’s a disease, I’m a disease
I will rot
100,000,000,000 years hahahahaha

Scared to die, but already dead
Scared to live, but already alive
Bullet to the brain?
But what would that do?
Dead head, needle threaded into consciousness
Plato made my brain play-doh
Always another cave

I don't know what to think anymore...

How do you hold on to the faith,
When faith has done nothing but laugh in your face?
Tell me if faith knows my pain,
If heart to heart isn't something on my lane.

So many times I fall and recover,
But over and over it's taking it's toll,
And sometimes I feel like I can't keep my hold.

My mind is a mess,
The overthinking and the stress
It's all got me depressed
Then you throw in my heart, now I'm face down in my bed.
I wish someone noticed the tears that I shed...

Mellow waves
I tried to escape,
Escape the reality,
I tried living in my dreams,
In my bubbly own world,
Doing everything i always wanted to do,

But sometimes it’s hard,
Hard ignoring the reality,
Hard not wanting to hear the truth,

You’ve got to grow up they say..
Face everything, all the bad in this world,
But still i don’t understand,
How a world that makes such wonderful things could be bad?

I will try to be, the best i can be
I will try to be, the bravest you’ll see,
I’ll make sure to try till the day i die...

This poetry has stolen
my soul.  Every time
I write, I can feel a part
of me seeping inside the
pages of each written diction.
I am becoming a poet living
within inner worlds,
embracing the seas
of other lands,
feeling the magic
illuminate inside
my existence, the
rhythm of the pen
in my hands an incandescent
depiction of brilliant depths.
