The pain doesn't solely reside on the unloved
It bears burden to those who cannot love as well
To be on the other side feels sickening
To no want to break but having to crush
is killing me
Never will I treed lightly on love again
It ***** you to far in
Waiting for this to end
My dear, I hope we can still be friends..

There is something in the wind telling me I need to do more

Behold this moment of stillness
Before your eyes is us
The witty, the broken, the loved, the happy, the angry, the starving, the sexually abused, the widows, the wimps, the selfish, the great, and the dull
All with a voice
All with different dreams and screams released or withheld
Apart, alone, dying
Together, in company, dying
Cycles and roles at their finest
Dressed for the occasion of an unexpected death
Naked for the occasion of a predictable sunrise
Time is impeccably relevant to quenching the thirst of desire
Be not only a dreamer, for life, is already a dream
Everything you are is now, and now is all you know
In a fools ego rest the space to which fears the hollow truth-
A voice with no meaning and passion with no action are as useless as
a city of fools

That rose
died
for you to feel beautiful

Dusty hearts tucked away
Rainy eyes and the longest days
Beauty has truly left my life
To me, you’d be, my day and night

A canvass whose paints refuse to dry
Tattooed on my skin until the day I die
I feel an addiction to run to the rain
Avoiding your face for I fear the pain

A lover whose love slipped away
Impacted my life then turned to grey
Escape I cannot from the depths of my heart
Accepting you’re gone is the hardest part

I’ve see couples laughing and dreams turn to ash
Traceless tracks where we finally crashed
Faceless masks and unfinished tasks
Basic facts that nobody asked

The clock tics, though the hands never move
Dancing in a storm next to the hidden moon
Consumed with being in tune with the music tonight
For she is gone and I am losing flight

They say their forevers, until death do them part
Predicting that love, with growth and change, the connection will never part
It's a time bomb waiting to fall apart
Human hearts, impulsive, and crave new starts
The vows were original
Love glowed in both their eyes
As they kissed, everyone in the audience cried
The honeymoon I heard was a delight
Now they are back home and they have their first fight

She has never seen him get so angry
Strange how things become so blind
Love blind
Believing in lies of all kinds
He laid hands on her
She stumbled away
Tripped on the door frame
They were going to have a baby...
She is staying with her mom
He is working overtime
Each night, when they are about to go to sleep, they both have on their minds
The imagery of being together
A family, with a son, they lost to a painful memory forever

Tears in heaven
He starts drinking away the pain
He'd rather die then go insane
Tried to call her but she changed her name
Divorce papers in the mail
Broken pictures in a frame
The weight of the failed marriage became to heavy
It's two in the morning and he cant breath
Hanging, dying, picturing her eyes
The son he could have raised. his childhood and mothers lies
How we compromise love in a skip of a beat
To put all we feel into words feels a little to deep
Walking constantly on this steep stepping path
With another holding on trying not to crash
And just as fact, he was dead
Died a long time ago with their kid
Could of saved each other, but for him that was it
She was his world, and without her, he couldn't exist

She found something in which she will never find again
Alone, in the dark, she screams his name and picks up a pen
To my regrets and the family that i leave
I lost everything, now it's time i bleed
To see, if i can find my love and my baby
Thinking she could of saved him if she didn't act so crazy
And just maybe, in the the after life we can be together
All I want is to be forever
In his death she will chase him
The letter is written now it's all about placement
Last night on this earth then the train is leaving the station
Got in her car to drive where his body was placed and,
got in an accident along the way
Traumatic brain injury
In a vegetable state
Yet she could feel, and hear everything, just like before
Stuck, alone in her thoughts screaming,, for him

The lesson is written on the door
It's cherish your life and expect a storm
Respect your life and never close your eyes
YES, LISTEN TO YOUR HEART
But don't forget your mind!!

The curves on her glass confine the pain
Disturbed and at last I forget her name
The sound of silence is a heart acting tame
If it helps you dear, I'll take all the blame

The ashes past it till it came home
A vow in rome to die alone
Cursed by the day we touched lips
Long forgot but never will I forget

The road of sorrow comes out as art
A man who chose to dissect his heart
A voucher for those who feel alone
In pain is beauty as solid as stone

A wandering mind, your smile can see
welded with time, we all bleed
Cursed the rewind, my lasting joke
I end this poem and light up a smoke

Plastered in her poetry
Consumed by his sins
All she wants is to be loved
All I needed was a friend
Droplets of envy for those that I loved
I concentrate on success while she gets ****** up
Daddy's little angel likes the thought of revenge
Her dagger to my throat as the story begins
The movements are slow in the book she writes
and on every single page, it is I who die
Deformed in my heart
Drained from her pains
I wrote you a song
It got caught in the flames
Chances dance with the final scene
Some call it ******
She calls it a dream

I stand before you as a coward
Seizes love then devours
On the run
My heart has a plan
Chase the sun
Start again

I stand before you as a scene
Dramatic poetry intwined in dreams
She loves me, Sometimes I love her to
I am lost, and so are you

The presence of her essence is a blessing in disguise
The higher I climb the more mountains I find

Revolt from the cold of the wind,
She spares know waste of energy
Under diluted skies and foreign stars,
The mask comes off
Reveling the reflection of flawed
Simply dark
Indulged in silence,, for words cannot capture everything
She exfoliates a still heart
However in her stillness,
Everything fluctuates
Leaping and bouncing and ******* around
In silence there is no stillness,
For stillness is a state of mind
Just as imperfection is perfect,
So is she
Adversed to love or not,
Embrace your footprint I say
Mankind's impeccabilities remain flawless
Disastrous and miraculous art formed off original memories and emotions.  
Expect the unexpected for it drips of meaning.
A comfort to all wanderers and squatters I hope.

Last chance to dance with the unknown
Bury that hatchet and hit the road
Along the coast, into the sea
In the forest, surrounded by green

A slide of hand to light the match
The wood it burns never stood a chance
Though the fire flames inside
I am cold on this stormy night

A heart that beats to the rain drops
What must I do to make this pain stop
Along a path, alone I must go
Single footprints in this deep snow

Alone, awake, I'm at it again
Predictable life I can't stand
To this hour I've become a coward
Trying to search deep to discover my powers

Childish dreams with skid marks behind them displaying the halt  that almost caused a crash
Lucid beliefs with undoable task
**** that reflection reminding us were growing old
More sticks on the fire to warm a heart that's growing cold
A soul in a body, a body holding a mind
A removal of love, desperately seeking rewind
Displayed as a crime, I shattered the glass
All heroes fall then turn to ash

Depletions around the corner and I am chasing the better of time
Wasting wasn't worth it and I am bleeding my truth into rhyme
Frantic's  fueled with forgery for never forgiving the pains of the past
Diamonds are forever, but as humans we carry, then crash  

Weights tied to your mind are sinking you drip
Shaped worse with time and competing in skits
Like a tattoo inside you to confine though thick and thin
I'm afraid it stays forever from the beginning to the end

Slowly slipping towards the light
Somewhere someone loves the night
Rusty nails and silent dreams
What in the **** does this life mean?
Funless jokes disappear
Melted wax and lonely tears
Strayed away from the tracks
Greetings stranger, name is Max

The leafs fall upon your grey
To me it’s all then fade away
Once we finally stalled, the miles couldn’t speak
Time is the only thing I fear in doses that are weak

Farewells capture the hollow of my heart
Get well attached with measures broken apart
Dares that laugh for books having to end
Our time is short my lovely friend

In storms of geography and pencil fading
In poetry’s tears and the woman I am dating
Every tic is of the essence
Every line pays a price
After it all crashes, what will survive?

Signs to wrong directions paint your face
Unspoken love songs fill the drains
Attached to her letter was what left her to cry
Oh how a life without you, I’d rather die

Romance dripped over cigarettes and wine
A poet’s trip on escaping crime
The bars are but windows to the miles ahead
Longing for her touch awake in my bed


Whispers that break silence are a timeless curse
Lovers dancing to violins on a sketchy curb
The pointless picture is within her flame
A love in my veins that only she can tame

I'm stitched between states and finding the perfect sky
An itch I must break to hold my head high
Peace in a numb heart that preys on my wounds
It's love I must give and knowledge I must consume

I drank to a space that desires to be free
Constant relationships are holding down me
The breeze has my heart in an unknown direction
A place where I've given up on finding protection

At last we set forth to a compassless map
Unbinding ones self from there typical trap
Embracing traces from a forgotten trail
To heaven and back to discover hell

The glass walls surrounding this traditional life style have me stalled in depression. I am not a sad man, though I am sad.
These bills and these jobs all add up to nothing. A confused circle of a circus. My creativity has run dry. My energy is gone. I am a young man, yet feel so old.

Softly spoken tragic portrait takes the long way home
Stumbling past beauty's ash and a spirit that walks alone
I found hell carved in a shell, day dreaming of ending it all
Under her spell so many fell and so many are bound to fall
Softly spoken lies paint the night bright, and I can no longer sleep
Words of wisdom don't mean **** as  her beauty killed the beast
Along a path cover in trash the greatest gift may arise
OR possibly an angel  who's come to mangle your green eyes
Intact with madness, her sadness breaks my heart
In a world so beautiful, our brains can tear us apart

I stand before this shadow knowing all the lies, all the madness, and all the possibilities laying silently on the doorsteps waiting for me to wake. I am know longer a  stranger to this place of destruction, or beauty, possibly both. I embrace them. Clarity shines deep. So deep that in the process of seeing myself, I saw the coward corrupted by the once so beautiful blessing bestowed in this heart. A coward because I  do not want to hurt her. A liar because the truth is we can know longer be.
The moon hasn't been out in months babe. That crash left some permeant damage. That one when you turned off the lights just when I needed to see. Why I thought I could piece together so much broke glass I am yet to understand. What's clear though is this numbness has left my mind running to long, and this heart, well it wants to feel again. May the curtains come down with the lesson instilled in my soul to never taunt true love with a broken dream.

There's something in the strong winds of the night that makes a man like me feel vulnerable,

I spiked my heart with bleach to mask the things you left
Drank a gallon of gasoline after I overslept
Drinking the ink from a pen does not justify poetry
Even if I hate you, you're not a ** to me

I ran my car off the bridge to see if the ice would break
Put tattoos all over my skin to possibly still the shakes
I cannot stop the world from burning, it's only a matter of time
In my soul my spirit is stirring, part, wearing down my prime

After showing her love, I painted her heart black and told it to let me go
I do this from town to town
Don't think I will ever find a home
I set a standard of the love they deserve forever
Preserved in there hearts, no choice, tethered
For so long now my heart has given up
Sparing what energy it has to love **** ups
I dance with there darkness until we see the light
Then I leave a piece of my heart to begin the fight
Is this wrong? Some may think.
But ask her about how much she use to drink
or the pills that slurred her speech
or the cuts that no longer bleed
I love them for they can love themselves
To know what they deserve
Something greater then wealth
There's no last laugh on a curtainless stage
For certainty is unknown on this journey we page

The more I try the more I feel like I am losing myself
The right partner, the wrong time
I desire to get my hands *****
To sleep by choice under the stars
Yet I am conforming to a world of cushion

I stand a lost man
Searching for a feeling that imprints a smile
Maybe I am in denial
Feeling to filed and organized
This infatuation of a picket fence,
is not me

There's a voice in my head repeating born to be wild
To ride on a motorcycle at sunset through a canyon with no home
Just apart of the road  
No structure
No direction
Just alive

I battle these thought daily
I fear leaving her and the pain it will cause
Though as it must, the truth prevails
Sirens and bells, heaven and hell
I feel like I'm losing myself

Here's your ticket
Bring your friends
Everyones invited

No need to drive home
We welcome the snooze

Here's yours keys
The road is yours
Drive all night
Mysterious shores
Open doors

Take this chance
It's your vacation

It's the turn of a life
Burned and saved twice
Just incase by night
Their hearts seize to glow

It's the kiss of death
Stealing your last breath
Hopelessly sinking into your eyes
Dying by a fire named bright

It's the way love likes to leave
Crumbles like a dried out leaf
Humble when clearly not clean
A pain much greater then when you bleed

It's the voucher that's bound to expire
It's the clock stuck in the same hour
It's the the way she says please
The way she gets what she needs
It's the last drink in an empty bar
It's your eternal embarrassing scar
It's the match to my gasoline
It's the way this worlds killing me
