Rebel to the world
I was never what you were
They say never say never, but never is what I embodied
Never feel
never hurt
an never steal
always curse
Never have a **** what you thought
A heart of stone that crumbled as I grew up
Now I feel
Hardly sleep
Life seems real
My pain is deep
Free me please of this hurt
Sea of darkness I'm submerged
Where's the light, cause I can't find it
It's hard to look back cause I'm reminded
I see death and it's blinding
You see me but I'm behind it
Don't miss-interpret my words cause I'm not fake
I just don't express my feelings cause I'm afraid
Out of place I'm all alone
But ignore my thoughts and I'm home
Life is rough but I'll get through it
I hve slipped
I will fall
But it's ok I'm only human
Welcome to my world
You may enter
Where the street lights set the streets on fire
Clocks get tired of ticking so time waits for me
But time waits for no man
Not here in no mans land
Where the nomads land
And no plans will put you on the right track to hopeful man
Live for the moment cause you only get one shot and regrets a *****
Ignorance is bliss
Kiss the devil
And now I'm living on a whim
Push the pedal
Ima drive this life till the end
Ascend to the heavens wingless
So how can I fly?
No not tonight
The sky is falling but I try to hold it up with all my might
But gravity has me traveling down
Impact with the gravel is fracture now
Hit the ground without making a sound
The world is silent
Why is the world so silent?
Probably all the reasons I am
All this time I've been writing poetry to make people smile
so why do I feel so sad?
I awake to a sound
its a knock on my door
I rush out of bed
my feet hit the floor
I put on my shoes
and of course my socks
I run to the door
and unlock the locks.
I pull the door open
and who do I see
no one is there
the knock came from a tree.
Don't be afraid of the hell everyone else see's.

See hell as a nice place, and you'll never be scared of it.

The hardest part is controlling my feelings when its all I've ever known...*

You are my anchor that holds me securely to the sea.
This sea of great sorrow, happiness and agony. And with every tide, I am never swept away.
Instead I'm forced to linger here throughout months, weeks, years, hours and days.
Because, my dear, you are my anchor that pins me to the sea.
This sea of wonderful, chaotic, bitter sweet, lovely agony.
You drown me in these depths I dare to never escape from; for I no longer aspire for the shore.
You are my anchor and I your mistress of the sea.
My darling, this love we've built, we've built on beautiful tragedy.
My talents as a poet
As a master of my sanity
Have began to fade away
My freedom to write
Moving powerful emotional pieces
Has deteriorated before my eyes
I've calmed the monster
To ease my grandmothers fears
Of losing her only successful grandchild
I've silenced the voices
To ease my deceased great grandmothers worry
That I'll join her in the heavens of my fathers memories
I've noticed I'm now nothing
Just the average joe
Watching Netflix and eating popcorn
Listening to music dreaming of being something
I've noticed
You read my work
Watched me perform
Understood the hatred I feel
Felt the pain I've endured so long
Grasped the love I once expressed
Yet now you're only looking for those things again
Looking for the long poems I once enjoyed writing
The ones that erupted with passion
For all things I thought of
Five minute poems
One night stands with lines
****** paper with pen
As I forced it to swallow the inky ***
I've always wanted to write my last and final poem
To finally be free of my insanity
And embrace the story of peace and solitude
But in this world those are just mirages
Boiling from the hallucination of my desert mind
I've noticed
I truly am just Robert Guerrero
The guy who dreamed impossible dreams
Only because his talent dried up
We're like
   A waterfall.
     Slowly moving
        Towards the edge.
                               Just
                               Waiting
                               To
                               Fall
                               And
                                      Break
                          On
                                   The
                                                Rocks
                               Below.
