spirals & straight lines.
the black rose Jul 2020
follow dreams like you are madly in love with chaos
& spirals.
see purpose where you once saw boxes filled with empty-ness & insecurity.
seek truth beyond,
it lives within you.
only depth exists in being,
being vast,
being an empath.
being a psychopath.  
seeking new pathways?
seek paths that just might lead you down rabbit holes that leads to a straight road of prosperity & wondrous ways of existing.

the black rose Sep 2019
im losing my mind..
its violent
but for some reason when i look close enough i see a glimpse of what i once considered
sanity.
its strange.

all of the new beginnings i begged for; on bended knees with so much hope and surety, are so close in reach but so far from logic...

how-to
the black rose Dec 2018
i gathered all the pieces
of my desolated heart.
i sorted my emotions,
took my being full apart.
i emptied my mind
of the clutter,
of fear.
i opened my eyes
& the truth was right there.
i stopped feeling sorry,
no pity,
no doubt.
i brooded the confusion,
i found my way out.
i made me a promise
to seek what is real,
broke free from a *******,
this is how
i healed.

look outside your window,
is it god that you see?
or is it just
"winds and rain,
and it should be over soon..."

if you might live to see another day,
i encourage you to live a different way
for you are not pleasing under the eye.

disconnect yourself from what keeps you scheduled

the black rose Mar 2019
while you claim power,
sit on thrones;
i exalt the lowly ones.
no one man better than the next,
each one deserves acclaimed respect.
your horse high like your heels,
you say money is your power.
i come through and devour your opinions,
they dont matter.
a dollar holds no weight in the higher space.
in the sunken place everything praises ego.
you lack necessities now you are seeking hero.
in need of rescue,
let your money protect you.

ATM pt. 1
the black rose Jun 2018
why when i speak practical people look at me strange?
when i say "just think positively" they brush it off, am i deranged?
so accustomed to the struggle, "being broke ain't nothing funny."
as if happiness and things of value only come in form of money.
i know you cant give happiness as a payment when your rent is due.
& nothing in life is free, but should money be all that we pursue?
were we created to work our *** off, pay bills then die?
or live our lives to the fullest & appreciate the highs.
the lows are distracting,
they are the cause of struggles we go through.
money doesn't run the world, people with money do.
why do we believe that money is everything?
that it is the only thing that we need to achieve.
when with life values you become blessed, & the universe gives you everything you need.
there's beauty in the struggle because there's valuable lessons,
don't chase the money, chase your dreams because your passion holds your blessings.
don't feed into the 'perfect picture'.
why the rich become richer?
why the poor never see more?
what we really living for?
don't let money determine your happiness,
don't let it make you, control yourself.
life is full of riches, money ain't the only wealth.
speak abundance in your life,
worry less & you gain more.
find out what your purpose is,
find out what you really living for.

sending gratitude and praises to the heavens,

though sometimes i may stall
im in alignment with the universal,

with nothing unspoken...

the black rose Feb 2019
we are the lovers that loved just a bit too hard,
hearts barely pieced together with the most unreliable adhesive.
at any moment your heart can give in & die out
yet still you wander into the depths of the unknown.
you still explore & you still give your hearts away,
your will to love is such a beautiful thing.

it’s hard to make things make sense
and i try not to vent
when i see pens and papers;
my friends,
my saviors.
-
i see nothing else,
i see only what’s sense-less
and
i saw nothing since this
journey to nowhere began.
this race that im running has ran
out of time and energy.
no pride so
no enemy,
no threat to my entity...
-
what exists isn’t critical.
one may seem too
individual.
when i look up at my visual
i see hope
and i see stars.
i see broken,
i see scars.

and
my spirit speaks through writings on walls.
-
im still chained to third dimension,
it keeps me lowly.
im still caught up,
my attention is on all
that kills me slowly.
i thought that this was holy grounds,
now the grounds have divided.
somethings happening beneath the ground,
new stars have been ignited.
-
"ive never seen this much stars"...
i can say the very same.
the time is only here and now,

broken ain’t bad.
the black rose Nov 2018
though the cracks in me are obvious,
& i sometimes fall apart.
i accept all of my brokenness,
though i’ve lost pieces of my heart.

what broke me, made me stronger.
it hurt but i gained hope.
gave me tools to last much longer.
i’ve found it was what i needed the most.

earth
the black rose Jan 2019
i don’t see a dying earth;
i see everything we need to make our hearts pure,
define our tears,
dismiss depression
and wipe out fears.
i see that the most ancient sources connect us to the divine truth that is waiting patiently on the day that a dying humanity pauses for a moment to acknowledge,
show appreciation
and remember.
-
it’s not the world that has gone to ****,
it is the culture that has inhabited it.
there’s not a problem that we cannot see a solution to
it just depends on the window that you are looking through.
there’s not a god up in the sky,
a god of earth
you wonder why
made in its image,
you and i.
-
we hold the change that we so solemnly seek.
you think it’s gone cause
it’s been buried so deep.
but if you do a little digging,
search beyond your common mind
you’ll find your light,
uncover truth
&
see you’ve got to trust the signs.
makes you think right..

sober
the black rose Feb 2019
it felt so good to feel nothing at all.
it felt so good to be alone,
in a world of my own.
im never searching for an answer,
yet always chasing my frustration.
& although i move a bit too fast,
i always find myself coming back..
to myself.
sometimes im running,
sometimes im too caught up to move an inch.
today im cashing in bad luck and pleading for a clean slate and
tonight ill be moving full-speed,
hunting fear under the moonlight.

who knows what tomorrow holds..

non-existent stillness,
making a mess of my psyche.
playlist of memories on shuffle
but i think my shuffle button is broken.
losing hope like a needle on carpet,
trying to hold on before it drop it.
trying to stay sane and in the moment.
am i really back to being sober?

am i too old to fall back into the feelings i felt in my younger years?
am i too grown to take a razor to my wrist,
to dismiss all of my fears.
what a chilling reunion that would be.
am i too old to fall apart?
i am too old to not have my **** together.

it’s getting old, give it up.
sadness never lasts that long,
ignore the voices in your head,
you’re a big girl,
move on.
though my demons never went away,
i simply got used to them poking at my heart,
taunting my mind,
mocking my progress.
how far am i behind?

no title
the black rose Dec 2018
the goal is elevation.
consistent dedication
to complete separation
from everything that does not serve the person i am trying to become.
& though my value is downplayed
i know that this physical reality,
this ambiguous identity is not all there is to me.
i dare not subscribe to a world of lies
& desolation
disguised as everything i could ever dream.
i am more than what you see with eyes in collaboration with a mind stuck in a box
surrounded by mediocre thoughts
& needless intentions.
you say i am powerless because i see little value in this material reality
where appearance takes place of character
& the frailty that seeps though designer clothing is most genuine.

the black rose Nov 2019

please never let go of me.
spill yourself and
let your scent linger throughout my depth so that i can find my way back to you.

sometimes it takes full control,
full throttle
with cheat codes,
to unlock my beast mode...
i will always find my way back to you.

pick a poison.
drain it slowly,

read the label.

“how do you feel?
i hope it heals.
i hope it gives you what you need.
no blurry vision,
this is real.
what do you see?
i hope it’s me.
i hope it’s true.
ill always be in touch,
im always here with you.
just keep this bottle by your side.
your world and mine, they will collide.”

where i am from
ignorance is like a crown
worn ever-so proudly,
and detriment like softened blows
taken ever-so mildly.
       there is foolish pride here,
       there is no one to guide here.
everyone just cries
& complains all the time
& i guess it’s in the nature
of the poor
unconditioned minds.
i guess it’s what you do
when you know of nothing else.
i guess it’s what you do
when you know nothing of ones self.
i am of the few
that knows just what to do,
but if you are not popular
in society view
then who are you?
you do not matter.
they do not hear the words you say,
but it is fine
just save yourself,
they’ll see you tried to help
some day.
some day too late.

might i invoke considerate thought
of how you can be one.
