I miss those late nights on the phone

Giggling and laughing together but all alone

Hearing your smile from afar I would give anything to rewind

Everything seemed to change so fast, I've fallen behind

To the point where I don't know if I even belong in your life

I would give anything to go back, reverse the strife within

But it's long past the day as I type this in dismay

I'm not asking to be forgiven, just to meet me halfway
random Thought.....

Here's to my funky friend of mine
Who I love to hang with and commit some crimes
You know that we doing everything only for the vine
and sometimes drop those silky smooth rhymes
And even though we've been apart some time
I feel like you've become more than just a friend of mine.

Hit after hit you know the bruhgles never quit
Until we're a little too high than we would like to admit
Every night is a good night when you're always down to smoke
Even though we are probably cooking our heads slowly to yolk
But we continue to laugh because life is just one big joke.
For my friend

An onslaught of rain
dripping on his battered sneakers,

Head down with grief
he just wants to call the reaper.

His plentiful cries
disguised because of the tormenting sky.

No more love in his heart,
even outside it appears dry.

He repeatedly asks why,
the sorrowful beginning of his demise.

His head soaking wet,
just this one moment left him baptized

The blink of an eye is too quick
for a soul to leave it's eyes.

Even the most wise of our time
couldn't protect the prayers of this size.

That memory controlling his head,
taking up all the space once used to plan ahead.

He had committed no crime,
but he sees in constantly stuck on rewind.

Nowhere to go,
Nowhere to be,

he crawls to the phone booth to hear her voice
one last time.
I hope you like.

For those who chose not to see
To dig deeper inside the real me.

You will regret not giving a chance
When you see me in my winning stance

For back when my words were ignored
You will hear and tremble in fear when you walk through that door

You will wish to go back and change your view of me
But the anchor is dug too deep you feel stranded at sea

I am all around though you close your eyes often
I am what you think about when you try and sleep
I have progressed, accomplishing more feats
than a small thinker like you would ever dream of achieving.

So please,

Next time you think of how you mistreated me
I lean back and smirk about how you never caught up to me
I feel like I haven't written in forever, kicking off some dust with this on. Sorry everyone! I need to get on more. And as always, feedback and improving is what keeps me on here. If you have anything to say (improvement, comments, anything) please share because I value you :)

I've been away from my pen for a while.
It's always with me, speaking silently
I've trained myself to ignore the presence
Even though I acknowledge I've been distant
Reminders of the lack of activity lead me far away.
I wish I knew why I don't pick it up as much anymore
I've been feeling less inspired as of late, yet I should make effort.
I need to fix this before it worsens
I haven't been writing much... Not really a poem I just needed to write something

You hear that?
That faint echo
Luring you closer
Telling you to let go.
The quiet mumur
Plants an idea
Wanting to grow
Curiosity keeps it alive
Lust dispels any divide.
But I see no sun
I'm closed off from it
I want to leave
But I fail to have the means
Just leave me be echos
Your torment will not work on me

Go
Head racing
Heart pumping
One task
Leading up
Gotta run
Where though?
I go
Rapid movement
Where to?
No stops
Doesn't end
Must go
Where though?
Far Away
No brakes
Mind blank
No tears
Just me
Nobody else
My heart
My soul
All behind
Just me
No destination
No station
Just me
Still going
Can't stop
Want less
Want nothing
Just me
Nobody else
Left alone
My thoughts
All unseen
Just me
So please
Leave me
Go away
I'm Free
idk what this is
