Poems
May 2019
Childhood traumas
Numbing tasks pass the time
Stuck in the prison behind my eyes
I've got nothing left to give
Lonely isnt a strong enough adjective
Feeling like a weak man
Mind full of inanity
Sad to say I wouldn't be here Without the small silver of humanity
I promise I dont do it for attention
But I do love all of you for the subvention
Trying to put these words down to help your comprehension
It's more than just a portion
When she looked me in the eye
straight faced and said
" I shouldve had an abortion"
Take the leap from grace
Hit me in the gut, scream in this space
Must be my father, you can see in my face
Dont see her for weeks at a time
Had to stay alive
Stealing butter and bread
To keep my sister fed
Sick of telling her to drink some water and go to bed
Brother moved in after nearly dying in the hospital
Now shes home every day
Putting on a show making him think everything is okay
Its Like an act out of Broadway
I told him about the days and the nights
He promised me everything would be alright
This is only a small piece of my life
Of the things that have become obstructive
Call me self destructive
Slay me for my sins
Where were you when I was being torn by the limbs
