I shall say not a thing
I shall think not a thing
The seeing eye silences me

My words aren’t my own
So words be not shown
And my thoughts to the void, I will keep

I dare not to blink
I dare not to wink
For the eye and I know all

But if nothing is said
Only actions instead
We all will still meet our downfall

Sit still my old friends
Straight tall, never bend
As the hours tick by without care

As we watch our lives pass
As sand drips down a glass
And freedom is abolished everywhere

Earth has Life too.

Earth has Life too.

At least I know
That even though
Humans disappoint me,
That this soil and earth
can heal and feel this soul.

At least I can be grateful for the fact that
A storm can relate to my broken mind.

At the very minimum,
at least I know that I can connect with something
in a way that I wish another could.

But souls are a world all their own
and it takes a stroke of luck
to experience something that strong.

I loved him,
He was of someone else...

Suddenly one day,
He completed all my poems..

I love you mine.

Payment..

Payment..

Emissions from the blast of envy
Flames from the darkest miseries
Ashes of predicted defeats
Soot of guessed mistakes
Carbon of pollutant companions
Venom of dressed masks
Terror of dishonesty and corruption
Freezing in the confined flask
With leashed cork of weak principles
And a terrible djinn for vain care
Magic and Money
Money and Magic
Bought my soul
But not my thunder tragedy
Flames from the darkest plight
Emissions fused by your sight
Ashes burnt in your appearance
I'm enjoying your soot's fragrance
I promise I'll give you whatever you want
But would you buy my horrific tragedy?

Easy Win

Crawler

Easy Win

A silly boy with his small hands
Filled up with dreams and hope to no end
As high as the cloud as vast as the sky
There is nothing can stop him you just can't deny

Monsters in the cave, and trolls on the mountain
He slay them all with ease after giving them the pain
His horse is big, as big as his pride
He is still a silly boy, with a small stride

Along came a fairy with words as sweet as honey
Promising him the world on a platter, and at the top, a cherry
The boy has no clue as he was foolish and silly
His heart is beating fast as if it was in a hurry

"I never felt this way before. What is this feeling"
"I will do anything for her. In fact, i want to give her everything"
"I will strike down zeus himself, and cursed hades to death if she ask me"
"For there is no greater deeds than to please a fairy"

She take what she can get, and leave out all the rest
She was happy with the serving boy, but its not gonna last
Even if she knew what the boy actually wants
She only offer the world but not her heart, so it should be fine

Silly boy
Silly boy
Played with like a toy

Proud as he was, and dumb as he is
He finally realize there is nothing more to it
As he muster his last strength and was sure he has nothing left
He ask her softly "can i die yet?"

And so she nod beautifully
"Die silly boy, die in your sleep."
"As it was much more than you deserve, honestly"
"You outlived your purpose gracefully, for such a silly boy and a creep"

are you death ?

are you death ?

are you death ?
are you death ?

who are you,
tiny voice inside my head
you are who ?
shiny choices 'round my neck

so, are you
noises i haven't bled ?

so, slow and blue
are you ?

who are you ?
the pain i haven't wept
you are who,
the pieces i never kept ?

who are you,
i dont think we've ever met

so, low and new
how are you ?

so hard to forget

so, clear and true
why are you ?

so far to regret

now it's in me too
so sharp to cut me through

so, near and few
shards, sharks and you

who are you,
tiny voice inside my head
you are who ?
shiny choices 'round my neck

who are you ?

why me, it's a riot in my head
you are who ?
screaming voices 'round my neck

so, are you still dreaming,
and nobody has found you yet ?

who are you,
are you death ?

inside my head,
inside my heart,
outside ripping me apart
are you death ?

so, are you
the ghosts i haven't met ?

what is true,
why do i see
the sun set ?

so, are you ?
the one who sets me free ?

if i count to three,
and close my eyes,
would you still be here,
with me ?

why don't you die,
are you death ?
are you death ?

now it's in me too
so sharp to cut me through

so, slow and blues
are you ?

who are you ?
the pain i haven't wept
you are who,
the pieces i never kept ?

what are you,
are you death ?
are you death ?

It would just be another sad day when I stop writing.

I crave of someone else

I crave of someone else

I'm tired of ******* myself, I crave of someone eles
to force my legs open
to puncture my insides with their hands turned into fingers
I want to *** until I loose count
I want to shake of pleasure until I start to twitch
I want to have my mouth open with no words coming out from state of shock
I want to feel so good my eyes fill with tears
I want to hear my juices as they fall
I crave of someone else

May The Years Be Kind

May The Years Be Kind

May the years be kind
to us merry few still
left here to live our sorry lives
through the pain, punishments, and trials
we are left with our tattered faiths and
an unbroken will.

May the years be kind to you
old friend of mine and ours
may you see the world from new sights
below the deepest oceans
atop the highest towers.

May the years be kind to you
may peace reign over your soul
may age never change you ever more
and my our lives be led with you
with your surprises in store.

May the years be kinder to you
then we have ever been
we who had called you brother
we who called you kin.

May the years be kind
for troubles no more, shall you ever find.

Rest easy and Ride On
be comforted heavenly clouds
ride the trail of the sunshine down on this little patch of dirt
and listen well to the chorus of the Angles' song
And forgive us.
For our wrong.

In loving memory of Jordan Fletcher
Rest Easy Bro, and Ride On
We'll take it from here
