Through eyes of red and thoughts of green
there's always more that can be seen.
Within the word of poet thieves,
that break the windows,
steal the keys,
you
choose
to make your own decrees.
A man is more than just a man
and space is full of more than sand...
But who will lend a helping hand
when eyes are closed across this land..?

I think your job may be the chain
in which you build your own domain.
Death is scary
But maybe that's Where I am
Deep in the hollows of the grave
Or maybe that's where I'm going
I see the roses growing

I don't want to
But  the acid is atrocious
It eats me up inside
Tears everything up that is I

I'm internally burning
The ashes are falling
Maybe its better that way
I don't have to open up

Spill my guts
They are ashes
I am free

I am not important matter
Please ignore me
If I fall if fate brings me to the grave
I can pick myself up and dust myself off
I will keep living in the shadows
Because that's how it should be
~Everchanging~

       Love binds us all
In agony,
the joy
the pain
the fear
         The greatest taste
    Of holy things-
Suddenly so
Clear
              Hate smothers us all
Darkness,
The indifference,
The despair,
           The uncontrollable rage
The darting glances
        From knowing enemies
Feeling like a
Cage
Broken

Bones Break
Life Shattered
Letting go of all that mattered

Hope Dies
No longer feel
Is this all truly real?

Ice Cold
Breathing Fast
Trying not to remember the past

Head Pounds
Blood Flows
As the world around me slows
Disaster
A common thing
Tragedy
A deadly thing
Love
A  sinister thing
Hate
A violent thing
Together
You get something known as
Life
People were created to be loved
Things were created to be used
The reason why the world is in chaos
Is because things are being loved
And people are being used

*I do not take credit for this----I do not know where or when this was said, but I felt it needed to be said.
This life is a police chase
That only I should face

I don't have a get away car
So I won't get too far

Its me
Not you

I'm the cause for this life
I'm the one who holds on to this knife

Its me
Not you

If I can't get ahead
I'm the one who fled

Its me
Not you

I'm the one who filled the clouds  
I'm the one who shouldn't be around

Its me
Not you

Its my matter
If everything shatters

Its me
Not you

Nothing makes sense
Because I built the fence

Its all me me me
I should be left alone to fight my battle, my burden not you
Please don't worry about me I need to take the world on alone
Not let my feelings be shown I have the weapons for this war
But I can not fight
I have lost sight
I keep

down
I'm caught in the wind
Hung by the rope
I am choked
But its better that way
Better to be forgotten I say
I'm worthless
of no use
I don't deserve  anyone to care
Not even of these feelings I share
I'm  disgusting
I need duct tape
To hold onto my shape
Keep all my internal organs from spilling
I fear
It is ever so clear
the unavoidable
I must find a way to disappear
I must
grow wings
and fly
Be careful dear,
I am just a match looking for kindling.
Hopefully you don't mind getting burned.
She was dancing on the edge with a giggle
Teasing and taunting him
with the danger of all he loved to be lost
Careless
Reckless was her exsistence
and he looked on wearily
but kept his distant
Pleading
"Please let her fall I've grown so tired of this"
she is a happy child
her smile is stained with love and youth
her thoughts bleed freedom and her heart is wild
she takes the world as her playground and searches for truth
along the way she becomes sad and lost
giving into all sins, as humans tend to do
her tears flood her porcelain face and her vision becomes glossed
she cannot see the glories of the universe or the skies that are painted blue
a world she once knew collapses right before her
the pieces scattered infinitely across the floor
the pieces of her life, her dreams and her heart become a blur
she can't remember how to smile or feel the warmth of the place she called home
and it frightens her,
yes, it frightens her.
