One moment you
sweet the next you
bitter as gall

Is quiet noise
Peacefully disquieting
Shredding sanity to zillion
Pieces.

You're all human
Stop pretending
How many ounces of blood do you hold captive?
How many of you turn away at the sight of it?

I am not ashamed
Of any part of me
I am who I am
Human
I have been broken, yes
But I have been whole, too
And because of that, I am stronger

I am not afraid to talk about
What I feel inside
Be it love
Be it pain
It is all so beautiful
Human existence is *so much more

Standing there
Staring down at myself
I wonder
Would one consider
Me a
Victim
or a
Valiant?

I am flesh
I am bones
I am mania
I am melancholy
I am madness

My clouded reflection eyes me
Like it is analyzing
My every twitch
Trying to decide if
I am a victim of this
Or maybe if it is a victim
That I have saved
It can see that I am dependent
(I depend on the pills
To make a difference)

I stare into blank eyes
A sober face
I touch my rippling reflection
Like I could actually feel it
For what it is
In its true essence
All it does is
Disappear

I look at myself
And wonder
Who took it
And took it from me
In silence
Until I had given it
All away
And silence
Was all I had left?

The surface calms
I can see my face again
My eyes look glossy
Like I am
Somewhere else
(I am)
In the dark mirror
A woman is trying to
Make waves with her legs
No, she is just
Passing by
Am I a victim
To this travesty
I am unintentionally
A part of?
Or am I a hero
Because I have managed
To conquer it
Before it could
Fill me up
And sink me down
Until I
*Disappeared forever?

Vexed by the dots that are strewn above the clouds.
My intense gaze fixed upon the moon
and the mystery it shrouds.
As my observance leaves home freedom is found.
Invigorating.
Beats of a cosmic drum,
binding strength to my essence,
keep my flight in animation.
The beads of cosmic spring,
trickle the length of my lips
and I dance across the space between each star.

Laughing and crying
and learning the truth of it all,
and seeing the probabilities.
This was my lasting message
as I couldn’t fly forever,
be at one with your planet
for the bounty of nature
is endless,
and our lasting possibilities
simply rely on that.

Who would want this broken boy
Past riddled with choices destroyed
Chose a life completely void of God
Chose the blade, chose the rope
But God gave one last hope
To keep from causing unneeded dread
He put a flaw in the thread
Rid his life of prior addictions
Rid his head of all the fictions
Turned his messed up life around
So joy just might be found
But when the hardship came
His faith became a little lame
Turned back to past addictions
And started believing all the fictions
But God would not give up
On this broken boy; feeble as a glass cup
Sent in in others to help clean his act
So it wouldn't be a fact
That he was bound by his past
That left him so empty, so fast
Who would want this broken boy
God above who created him with much joy
Thought I might start writing poems. I don't really think I'm very good, but I'm giving it a try. This is the first poem I've ever written. Thanks for reading

Forgive me
Today
For I'm done living
Yesterday pains

Forgive me
Today
For I'm breaking
Tomorrow promises

Forgive me
Today
For I don't wish
Staying awake

Forgive me
Today
For all the memories
Forever save

Forgive me
Today
For tomorrow I might
Take my life away...

Argus Memories

Argus was the only thing I could remember,
though I knew it was December.
The images before were only white noise.
Ringing in the temples.
Something new was implanted in my thoughts.
Now I have a watchful mission,
to keep my eyes up towards
the deep blue heavens.
But before me,
a series of sevens are written on the wall,
and “Fizbin” is flashing before my eyes.
I started my vexing fall
to the depths of inside my mind.
The flesh that holds our thoughts
is hardly safe from peeping voyeurs.
But I fell and I fell,
then I reached my destination.
Now my beckoning grasp for oxygen
leaves me suffocated.
And I lie still awaiting orders.
