Crash

Send this jeweled watch flying out the window,
It's silly, clattering wings flapping, struggling
To keep it up.
My world has crashed once, you stupid creature.
And it is your fault. Horrid
Clock.
Time is your weapon.
But now, I am a ghost.

Your ticking sword does not cut me.

Tilted, Jilted

This tilted mirror shows what once was
The me I felt most alive in. A small bird perched
On a branch, on my finger, in my hair.
She was always with me.
We are a jilted person.
Disconnected and abandoned.
I am sorry, bird, but I will
No longer hear your song.

Your life is not mine.
And the confusion spreading like flame
Burns me half to death.
But you... You are not a Phoenix.
You aren't allowed to crackle.
Ashes don't come from you, bird.

You just simply die.

A Thousand Insects

Something my teacher said.
A thousand insects in one tree.

He's talking about us.
Not directly, but that life isn't it?

We are all ****** up little things in the world.
Some of us have a billion legs. Disgusting creatures.
Some have crazy fangs to rip out throats.
Some have eight eyes and see the world as a big moving picture.

But we are all insects with piercing eyes and spindly limbs and
Screwy bodies.
It's this of us with wings that can see above it.
Show their colors.

And those are the bugs that are not scary to live with.

Quiet Before The Storm

I've never been a fan of suspense. Time seems to stand still
Until
Something jumps, pops, screams in your face. And it is ******* scary.
Finding the thing that scares you most and having it scare the **** out of you.

Nothing is worse.
The white, blank, haunted eyes that mirror your pain.
And everything seems to be turned against you. Nothing
Nothing
Nothing
Will ever work for you.
Unless you believe it will.
The power of positive thinking. Reflecting the image in your third eye into the waters that spread
In front of you. A mirror pool.

And the fix it guy in your neighborhood will fix your toys.
Thirty seven years will take a lifetime to complete.
I don't know why.
Ask the reaper, the shadow people, the guardian angels that whisper in our ears at night.
But you won't get a response.
They can't speak. They can sing and scream and stare. Scare.
They whisper in a language lost
By those who once spoke it. They threw it out
With the *******. And killed themselves trying to remember.

But all will be well. Your playtime will be fixed and set up. Your entire life bending backwards.
Because you are a control freak.
You can't let people shape who you are because you are important. More important than others' Emotions.
False.

You are a selfish *****, you know? Let people tell you that.
Be kind. The golden rule was taught to you in elementary, remember that.
You're letting your demon out.
Kick it to the curb. Send it back. To oblivion. This is not fantasy.
You can not just let yourself go.
That toy is not yours to break.

It's time to swim. But don't fall in. There are evil things in that mirror pool.
Make sure to just look. Project the image of diving in. And you will.
Without releasing the dragon.

Bad Band

Throw a tomato! They're squishy...
Snails are too though, but you can't
Toss them too well.
You could use them like a baseball?
"Hey, batter batter. Swing!"
Touchdown!
But...
T
H
I
S
Isn't high school.
And we aren't jocks.
We just throw cabbages and rotten potatoes
Po-tah-toes.
Tomatoes.
To-mah-toes.
Lets call the whole thing off...

Hey, this is kind of fun! :D

Something To Scream For

Let me be the one to see
The only thing between us
Dissolve
Not now, but soon enough,
We will feel the remaining distance

Come closer.
Closer, love, and I will heal all of your pain.

This current adrenaline is satisfying, for now,
But won't be enough.
In our minds eye, we know how close we are,
And how close we could be.

See the colors burning bright,
Burning for us.
Simmering under the weight of this love.
Charred under the heat of this lust we share.

I know you.
You want this as much as I do.
You and I both need something to scream for.

Like I said, this account is for my more explicit works. Or for whichever one I am able to reach first to post one.
Don't like, don't read.

Fear

Overcome it.
Tell it who is boss and whip it into shape.
I am not afraid anymore. I took control.

Let out your emotions, you fears.
Verbalize your confusion.
I did, an I am better.
Tell it to ******* and figure out how to fix itself.
Turn it into something light.
Bright.
Lovely.

Your demons don't possess you anymore, lover.
Because, in a way,
You are a demon yourself.

We all are.

We possess ourselves.
