Oh, broken tears
Sear my scarred face
Like salt in wounds
Rubbing in the pain

How I have forgotten
The beauty that shone
Brightly from your eyes
But now I do not see you

Oh, sweetest memories
Are like haunting nightmares
Forever tormenting this man
Of something that can never be

Only this patch of ground
In a empty grave yard
Keeps you from my grasp
I weep only broken tears
2014
It'd be nice
if you could
stay a while

But I know
that with time
you'll leave

Nevertheless
your company
makes me smile

And that's all
you'll ever need
to give.

Hayleigh
I refuse to follow a trail where everyone else has
Crushed their individuality
firmly into the ground,
Silenced their hopes and dreams
so they no longer make a sound.

You do what you please,
but darling I'll blaze a trial so bright
it'll dull the suns light
And bring the trees to their knees.

Drifton A Way
The fire burns within you
That need, one has to create
Excuse the improper venue
But the need is quite innate
Thoughts race from old to new
Reborn with ink,on paper's fate
Seeds were planted and grew
The Lock is broken, wide open gate

The time is now, make your move
Don't you dare ask why?
But rather, ask why not?

Someway, somehow you must prove
That you care enough to try
Maximize the time you got

Forgive,
But never forget
To live
But never regret
The past
Always think and learn
Act fast
So problems never return

love me
how could a heart like yours
love a heart like mine

your heart is full of love.
you dream of life.
you have no regrets.
you live without fear of the future.

my heart is full of-
well it's not full at all:
it's broken; shattered,
into a thousand tiny little pieces.

and somehow, someway,
you were kind enough;
to hunt for every little piece,
and put me back together.

and this is why i,
will never understand,
this silly little thing,
we call love.

Why do you write?
Who makes the rules?
Epileptic spoon bite
Hand fed by fools

What is the Meaning?
Looking forward to more?
Another movie screening
Brief Escape from the war

The straits are quite dire
combatted with a laugh
Pearly Gates we aspire
Who's running the staff

Inevitable tears shall escape your orbitals with either joy or sadness
Look out your soul windows and decide amidst the stormy madness
purpose is like... everything, or ..wait, is it nothing?

love me
time heals nothing
time is for healing what cannot be fixed
time is not for healing
time is for forgetting the bruises and marks that left her in shame
time can attempt to heal her
but she can never be mended
the screams of pain will turn into whimpers
the tears will dry
and for a moment everything is as it was before him
but him will change everything
time cannot make her forget
time does nothing but damper the noise
him cannot be forgotten
and time does not change that
