my eyes were more blue
but you never did tell me
you liked green seas too
haiku
i was there for you when he cheated
i was there when your mother kicked you out
i was there when he cheated again, again, again
i was there when your brother got arrested
i was there when he went to rehab
i was there when he killed himself
i was there when you needed me
i was there when you needed me
i was there

but where were you when i needed help?
I put myself before others but it agrivates me that i'm put on the back burner.

who cares*
how brightly
the sun shines?
all I need
is to be
enveloped
by the depth of
the elusive
night.

Her Love belated
Like flowers
She only arrived  
for funerals

She would often smother me
but unfortunately
She suffocated first

Fade the last verse
She is not deceased
but jaded

When everyone else died
I cried
Life never felt dissuaded

Erase the eleventh line
nobody died
I just been forgotten

But honestly
They should be less
sympathetic  
And more rotten

Because all I ever did
was simply pathetic
And misbegotton
A series of 10w stanzas

Nostalgia or Noosetalgia?
Cause it chokes me in it
To recall a world where I existed
Without a limit

Crawl around a place
Inside my head
I can't escape
Unsure if that faded memory
Is real or fake
And did I make it

Did I make it?
For here I am
In a present
I'm unable to open up
Tied down by a past
Too much spoken of

And Will I make it?
To a future where there is no limit
Break the bad habit
Take the leap
Snap the rope
Or end up choked by it?

Pulled back by the past
A rose tinted hue
Blood shot eyes
Of asphyxiation
Fixated on a south facing view

Sunny
Its funny how warmth can be found
In something long dead
Neglecting life
Favouring the thoughts in your head

Gotta Be careful when you
Tread this path
Cause memory lane
Will be all that remains
Nostalgia can last

Fed it will grow
Your time is its payment
And before you know it
Your presents your past
You passed up your present
For your Past and your Future?

What Future?
*All you ever hoped for or looked to was the Past
If you live in the past the payment is always the present and ultimately your future, so let that **** go!

Nostalgias not always a bad thing but for me it needs to be kept in check cause it mostly seems to be a reflection of me not appreciating or being happy in my present.

some people can be so mean.
so mean what you say
because tomorrow?
it might not be what it seemed today
