I'm looking up Barbie's skirt w/ lascivious
intent; she said ur so hard & red & I said
so u want to put in ur mouth & she said no;
but I talked her into it; how I don't know;
how do you get a girl to put a red brick in her mouth;
she slathers on red lipstick and opens
wide like when she's at the Dentist;
it's kind of sandy she said picking bits
of grit out of her teeth; would u rather *******?
ew she said; some girls are really into that;
that's disgusting get away from me;
her mood passed I was being an ***; okay okay I said. lick it

Wall

Wall is high
Brick on brick
I build it thick
Let no one in
fear is sick

Vandalised Heart

Society continually asks about relationships;
How many you've had, how many you've faked.
Society constantly asks about affection;
Whether you've expressed affection or not.

Society never asks how many times love lead to heartbreak;
What you undeservedly deserved.
Society never asks if you're okay;
Whether you're living positively or whether you feel like just another brick in the wall, waiting to be vandalised and demolished.

To the person who put up a wall

You’re acting so cold,
Sending chills through my bones.
You’re acting so bold,
That it sounds like a scold.

I knew who you were from the start
But now I don’t know who you are anymore.
Maybe it’s just a phase
Because of all the pain you endured.

But brick by brick
the towers have grown tall
And I can’t see you at all.

I am trying to find a worn area,
I am trying to find a window
To the softness that once existed
Because it feels like
there is nothing between us at all.

Wall

I built a wall like Berlin,
With our two hearts,
Entwined like a limerick;
Kept within arm's reach -
So when our heads spin,
I'll tear it down -
Brick by Brick

Drowning Black

Brick by brick
Stone by stone
Screaming out
Shattered tones

Fleeting life
Wanting death
****** up dirt
Shooting ****

Vacant hole
Ill spirit
Emptiness
Puking ****

Crumbling veins
Spilling red
Broken blood
Damning dead

Darkest day
Blackest night
Drowning black
Losing light

Tempting fate
Inner itch
Hearts will freeze
Blood will twitch

Bruising cracks
Inside bones
Brick by brick
Stone by stone.

Building

Inanimate
How much easier it would be, to be
Or so at least I like to think
When my mind runs away from the building of me
Like a brick I fall
Like a block I sink
Hopefully back into place
But if it's not for me
Would you tear me apart God brick by brick?
And build me as I was meant to be?

Not all that I do...is rooted in truth or humility. RIP.

**** I think about at a music festival

Waves are no match for a brick wall
They try to grow and stand tall but that wall makes those waves seem so small

The waves are attracted to the wall's hard exterior
Or maybe they are just used to feeling inferior
Maybe they want more

Spinning and spinning it all keeps going
The waves keep flowing
All they want is to keep growing

But they are stifled by that lock
By the brick who calls all the shots
By the wall that holds the waves in their spot

So what now?
What comes next?

The wall keeps standing
The waves keep churning
They keep yearning
Mindlessly flowing
All the while knowing
That the wall will keep them from growing

Maybe they both want to be free
To flow, to be alone, to grow, to be stone
Maybe it's freedom they both will never know

Because the wall stops it all
