a sprouting bulb with thorns
unaware of her shears
carefully blossoms her way out of these crowded flowers
she opens up slowly
a little bit more
but she’s shy and meek
she might not be nourished plenty
some days she is unkept
with tarnished leaves
and her colorful aura dims at times
but even with the sky
raining cats and dogs
she holds onto her roots
with great might
because she is resilient

the tears fall out
drip. drip. drip.
a downfall waterfall
the unresolved pain
razor cut my heart
drops of blood
paint the picture
of my misery

his weight is pressing down on me
i can’t breathe
he loves me
he hates me
i can’t decide
which one of me
is the real me

an angel’s broken wings
a fallen creature
lost in the mist
deserted from youth
dumb with freedom
rebellious one
wanted to be accepted
by her society

finding your place in a lost world
society is 451
hating people for embarking on change
to revolutionize a new world
be free for me so we can sail on the sea
easy, breezy, and beautifully

admiring your view from afar
you were everything i wanted to be
so i took you away from your home
a energy ******* vampire
who needed a youthful being
to steal away one’s freedom
so by locking up another
i could possibly be free
one sacrifice for another
an eye for an eye
cause and effect
crimes for sins to be met

he’s my misery and ecstasy
all at once
one look takes me back
to those pure days
of innocence and simple love
between two friends

an elixir brewing
love strikes
a flame appears
burning so bright
as it was metamorphic
showing the little village people
that within the volcano was a home

moving my whole body
to the sway of the beat
thump. thump. thump.
booms my heart
erratic and exotic
full of culture

here I go clicking my heels
twice
and flying free
away from the disastrous chaos
and all the bliss
floating gently in the sky
and if I were to try to attain it
it would refuse me
just to say that freedom isn’t an entitlement
to have and keep and store away
you must respect it to earn it

your vindictive glare
clenched jaw ready to eat
show fear
the power you wanted
was around the bend
truth is
you are just scared
of being you
being raw
being open
being loved

wild thang
shake the world from it’s fake prophecies
being told to be a creature of God’s kind
to be prim and proper
not someone who
appreciates their individuality
you’re the change
thanks to you
i liven up my own stage

i feel stranded
in your artificial home
everything in place
picture perfect realm
with that half and half
heaven and hell
reckoning cotton candy skies
and clouds that cry
meltdowns raining
all that we call life

she hates this place
sticky icky
the girl whose name is Mickey
poor girl
labeled a *****
don’t know where to go anymore
a stray cat
street fighter
and city traveler

blah. blah. blah.
goes my mind
this world has got me in a bind
feeling blind
mankind outlined from the ashes falling
from each bashing their own skulls to escape the toxicity of the world
what a shame existence is
to end up being hated on

those lips deserve to taste the kindness
of forgiveness of past sins
people of the world so versatile
morphing into each other
with the addiction of likes
and attention spans those of a fly
a genetic chromosome disorder
that duplicates one’s eyes
to see the reality of real
because your own set bears too much pain

you hold my heart in your hand
and you say beloved it
this is a true promise
kept from a beating heart
you nourish every part of me
which completes the scene
of our keen memories
creating energies between our two bodies
calling everyone to dance
to the rhythm of a predictable chance
that we always knew the circumstances
at first glance

the music spins round and round
everyday
to the sound of the world
we are not perfect
and that‘s the way it stays
forever and always
being that we are true to who we are
never needing to search for clues
the reason is centered in the heart of living

hold yourself
rock-a-bye baby
someday you’ll see
you can be happy and free

i always wonder why we fit
maybe you hide behind your talk
and i, my walk
you are right in front of me
yet i sense two of you
the imaginary you
and the irreversible existence of you
find me
don’t you know me?
or am i imaginary too?

if you look within
you’ll see what could be
forget the pretty faces
those are easy cases
let’s instead appreciate your vase
the one you fill with space
hidden in disgrace
mustn’t you look a trace
for it might scare away
a certain someone you’re asking for grace
but at the end of the day
you’re better off hugging back
your own embrace

oxygen masks taunt you
saying what’s scarier
haven’t you known
most artists are messy and rough
you have a long way to go
so just believe and achieve

nothing can tell me
what i should do
can do or can’t do
i want to breathe Earth’s untouched air
and climb the steepest mountain
i know it isn’t impossible
and lastly
i want to be myself
and love myself for it
and continue doing what makes me happy

primrose showers in mid July
showing up like this day is your day
to be your greatest self
loving the moments shared
all day, everyday
being free to be you
and only you

reflection, reflection
on the wall
whose the dullest of them all?
long faced and faded
loved but hated
pain, rain
go away
hide your face
discreet, strangely out of place
where are you, Chase?
are you mad at your race?
ashes, ashes
find your place
don’t be discouraged
don't be late
settle in your fate

you gentle soul
smooth creature
the one who loves through grace
and moves unapologetically
i love you especially

momma says
keep your head up
be happy and strive
hold onto good vibes
and before you go
don’t fret or you’ll regret

the cackling of leaves
as the coming forth of April goes by
pretty blueish mocking birds flutter their wings - a fellow goodbye
cobblestone pavements lead the road below
windy they went, far, far ago
once more, their stones are yet again so beautiful
just like you, gleaming too
the Sun and lucid daydreams lead me back to you

constant mind ******
restless memories
stays stagnant behind my mind
while it holds tight
replaying on my broken cassette player

you love me, you love me not
how many times do you command
pulling me in and out
while you strum the strings on my heart
i ask only since i’ve wilted
struggling not to give away my life

time loves slipping past
pacing feet with anxious hearts
dip me into the pareidolia
where my mind wanders
take my hand
twirl me till I see truth in front of me
