i heard the gods,
they got angry again.
all of the passion
in the world in gone.
i live on top of bricks
and lay on a bed of sorrow.

forever i'm weeping
with the lonely.
all of the people, lonely.

how can i grow?
how can i get better?
out of the dark pit
that i once called my friend.
hear them weeping from the heavens.
open your eyes.
open your ears to your protectors
and listen to their words.

i am trapped in a cold, cold place.
there is no way out.

there is something special here.
how the stars shine
in different ways
like they know something
about me.

the presence of another
fills my mind.
it watches me
blink
slow
and
steady.

the ****** fingertips
and rusty nails
is all i can relate to now.
i'm feeling so empty right now and just had to write out something. it's sloppy, i know. it's not the best, but this is as raw as i can get. i was going to divide these into small poems themselves, rather than several stanza, but who has time for that?

The sky is a bit bluer not.
The tree a bolder green.
Suddenly, the devil's face doesn't look so mean.

Look into my sad eyes
And tell me I am all you have ever wanted.

One day you left
without regard
and took all of me with you.
For days I lingered throughout the lonely halls
searching for what was once mine,
so poise and careful,
it was one of a kind.
People ask from time to time
if it was ever found
My sad response,
"It never came around.
I'm afraid it was burned to the ground
and now the ashes lay within me.
Sometimes at night you'll here things,
look out the window and see me
digging and howling,
hoping for the emergence of my own self."
I truthfully don't know where I'm going,
But I know where I've been.
The torment must be put to rest.
The patronizing stares
and dreams of your face.
I only search for the end,
a gratifying and final death.

watchful and weary
it's how he trembles and looks all teary eyed
every day from the long nights.
there's no look in his eyes,
he hides a disguise;
a mask said to be of honor and glory.
took the staff to his name,
was recalled as a shame
and never showed that face again.

breathing heavy.
heart is sore.
i can't handle this feeling.
darling, don't waste your time on me,
i'm hardly human anymore.
i'm not worth an ounce of your love.
i didn't come from a god above.

i pretended to see
truth in your eyes,
love in the lies.
but i couldn't believe.
