They say words don't hurt...
but words are my life...
so I would rather be stabbed, shot or knifed...
because they burn upon my heart...
cause unrest among my soul..
there's no going back..
your words opened a hole...
see I bleed syllables...
you read moans and groans...
but I see parts of life escaping from my skin...
to you it was just said...
but it feels like I'm at my end...
screaming ****** murderer...
from the fatal words of a
"friend"...

I read a poem once
titled "the ballad of the lonely masturbator"
and I laughed because her name was Anne.....

                         Sexton.....

then I found my self cleaning floors....
by myself....
restocking toilet paper....
and suddenly nothing was funny...
anymore...

My Drug..
My Drug...is words injected in my blood...
like a book pull me open watch my letters flood...
Like the ocean, this the see..
The body coated me..
but my crack is my pen...
A blank page is ******...
and spoken word is my ****..
Because its exactly what I need..
To get me high..
I'm talking lifted above the sky..
This is more than just a vision
but word infected poison..
Because it seeps into your brain
makes you go insane
as they push against your skull
this drug is never dull
Once you understand it
you can't live without it...
Jungle fever type of motion
I got me
a
real bad
addict!
I went there
and I can't go back from it
and its causing some commotion
I can use to my advantage,
I could try to save the world
or I could slowly **** myself,
chasing after girl after girl...
see I received this sinful gift
Gave to me from Adam
knowledge in the fruit that Eve handed him
and generations later I sit addicted to gaining wisdom
in the form of words that were accidentally eaten..

I keep telling myself I'm fine...
that you don't affect my decisions...
anymore..
because there was a time...
I'd do anything...
for you...
everything...
I couldn't even breathe...
I had your ring in my pocket the day you wanted to leave...
You had my heart in your pocket when you walked out of my life...
I was already damaged before You...
You know thanks to what i knew of life...
my fragile shell was only egg like..
and yours was glad wrapped...
impossible to break easy to change...
but easily transparent...
But that one crack destroyed my yoke...
That one sin....
Burnt my hope..
.and it was blackened...
because I started jumping into ocean after ocean trying to find the fountain of youth...
fountain of you...
But every ocean had no water that could quench me like you did...
No woman had no aura that could love me so I hid...
Behind holograms of you...
Hoping they would shield my broken shell.
But everyone was just like you so they all held close the gun...
that would shoot me in the soul...
after all that I had done....
Now I'm just a zombie wandering around with no heart,
no heart...
I lost that warm blooded part...
Now I'm just in search of brains...
because hopefully a smart woman won't live connected to her hearts chains...
And she'll see How much it means to say I love you
because she'll know the definition,
instead of her own missing hearts blinded decisions....

You find a new way to make it socially acceptable
What you're doing to me..
So that you we just see it as how it is..
so let me make it easy..  
Let me just bend over for you world...
Just like my blood before
Because you keep forcing yourself upon me..
******* me...******* me....
so rough like ******* brazzers...
Like a flick on Punishtube...
With no ****...
thank you money for hold me down..
while you watch big brother
have his way...
maybe if I was a woman I could reproduce..
But My **** just goes lump so fast...
while life repeatedly ***** me in the ***...

I been seen it coming
I hope You seen it too...
No where will be safe for running....
when the horns blow for you...
See I've been in this life captured,
praying everyday...
And soon I will be raptured,
at any time any Day...
Now Where will you be when the clouds open wide....
What season is it? ask the midwestern pride...
See I told you before Pray...
Each and Everyday..
Because You never know,
When its your time to go...
Could be violence, illness, weather, or Just the time...
I just pray your soul was saved in time...
nobody's perfect, nobody's perfect baby...but would you believe me if I said I'm in love...I dare you to say it...mean it...Would you believe me if I said Im in Love...With Jesus, He saved me He'll save you!!...
But Thats not my religion...
thats just my relation,
that have with the man that owns all of creation...
See He told us about the signs..
There right in front of Us...
Just look at times....
We don't know when but he's warning U.S...........
You could just pray,
for Boston or Oklahoma or You could #PrayEveryDay
