my eyes sink
my mouth is laden with tender flesh
my teeth are tired,
they aren't so geometric anymore.
i can feel the usually damp
pathways
that spark and tinder
but dry, and slow like
desert sand.
what tundra am i unaware of
that suffers under the sun
how could i not feel
myself wandering
into the infinite rise
and fall...
the dangerous
beautiful
desert of my madness.

Devotion and darkness
Have a thing in common
They become clear in the light
"Darkness cannot drive out darkness; only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate; only love can do that."-

Struggle

I was struggling
I was uncomfortable
Later, I realized I was stuck in life
Folded up by the ropes of time
Clasped by the chains of guilt
But with time, the guilt washed away
And the shackles became my struggles
I was free of the suffering talked of in novels
Struggle is a never-ending process. Freedom is never really won, you earn it and win it in every generation.

The pills meant to take away sadness should replace it with happiness.
The sadness is gone but there’s never enough happiness for everyone.

Love wasn’t your forté.
No, it was your weapon.
You wielded it like a sword on a revolutionary soldier,
Armed and ready to go onto the battlefield as if you had nothing to lose.
Well my dear,
Fear is my aphrodisiac.
Love was the least of my worries.
Deter me from that ******* you call love

I want to do something
For the first time
Anytime I'm
Yours
Never sky breeze
Before
understand
Your mine
And
I'm yours.

Never let it go
No matter
What it
Say forever
Im forever
Yours.
