With My Eyes Closed
Jordan Collins Dec 2019
I hardly remember,
A warm December.
Or a healthy high?
Until I told my family goodbye.

Before I’m Paralyzed
Jordan Collins Jun 2021
Don’t bully me,
Respect me.
Don’t talk down on me,
Listen to me.
Don’t interrupt me,
Caress me.
Don’t ignore me,
Hold me.
Just love and lust me.
Because,
Just like you,
I’m gonna die too.

The Grimm Reeper
Jordan Collins Feb 2021
He who is dark,
Walks the tallest.
He who is light,
Walks the smallest.
He who is dark,
Talks the loudest.
He who is light,
Talks the most modest.

In Orange He Glows
Jordan Collins Oct 2019
A spirit lost
Is a drifting ghost
Searching for
Its body gone

Thoughts and prayers
Said and said
A mind paralyzed
A body misled

Bleed and bleed
With tears swelling
Drowning a mind
Of questions of curing

But yet tonight
The pale moonlight
Burns brighter than
Tomorrow’s light

As north becomes south
Its revolving smarts
Remind me all
All about you

And I’m fine again
Happy but sad
Still in a body
That’s going mad

Then a light breeze
Fools me
Blinds me
Shows me

Says to me
Hello dire friend
And I stop
Thinking of the end

As half becomes whole
Spirit no more a ghost
My impatience divides  
As it enters its old host

And now
And for tomorrow
All I wait on
All I’m assured on
All I’m motivated on
Is also seeing you
Once again

I still breathe
Jordan Collins Apr 2020
I am not the mad one
Don’t give me a gun
Just let me be
I’ll be happy

A New Yesterday
Jordan Collins Apr 2020
A women’s thoughts
Could be sold
Millions of dollars
Left on hold

— The End —
