Don't mind me
I'll just be licking my lips
Being your translucent temptation
You wont see my attempts because baby, they aren't there for your eyes.
I know you like the view from the back,
But how about you learn to see things more clearly?
Open those eyes.
You liked to play games,
But I'm competitive.
You can see but you can't touch?
Childs play.
You can sense, but you can't see/feel/touch.
Maybe,
Just maybe in a blink of an eye you can taste...
But I'm gone.

She yelled to the whole world hello.

She didn’t wish to be alone.

She didn’t wish to be rejected.

She didn’t wish to live this life.

She didn’t wish to be in this world.

She didn’t wish for her world;

to crumble apart.

She wished to be happy.

She wished for a perfect boyfriend...

She even wished for a perfect family.

But her family,

Banished her to her room...

She’s not coming back;

She’s done something so terrible.

She’s keeping an eye on the world.

She takes the pills she had hidden in her room;

She takes the razor blades and cuts her wrist.

And...

She whispers to the world goodbye.

Within me the voices
Of virtues and vices
Battle valiantly
Daily for victory.

You cradled me in your arms,
Kiss me on my forehead,
Say the word I love you in my ears,
Then hug me while we’re both lying in bed.

You never leave me alone.
Instead, you lead me on my way home.
You are my inspiration.
That was never afraid to face your true form.

Decades passed, changes are too many.
Attitudes of others, truly a malady.
But your gift of love never becomes an envy.
You are the one who nurtured me, loved me completely.

god made stars
for starving poets

when they look up
they forget
how hungry they are

It was all a high and I knew it and I rode it
But that wave has crashed and its settling in now
My family is broken, my family is broken
And I saw the pain in your eyes, the guilt, the sorrow
And I walked away because I couldnt stare at them anymore
I walked away and left you standing there hopeless
Shouldn't you? Don't you deserve this?
When will my hands stop shaking and when will my breathing normalize
The numbness of trauma only stays because of adrenaline
But now it's gone and the pain is here and I'm left not being able to breathe
As I escaped the horror of inside that broken house
Sitting outside shivering, broken

I haven't touched a drop in months,
alcohol was the least of my problems though.

bullet-cut habits and finely made shoes,
those were the days of youth.
There are days I know
There are Days I question.

Nights I am sure
Nights I just wonder

People will ask me
I will not answer

No possible answer
Will simply show.

Questions to who I am
Answers I will never know
