I feel you crawling on my skin like a million germs,
quietly trying to **** me out of sight and sound.

Years long gone you say I'm out of your head,
I'm just not in your present our mental hookup's not dead.

I'm wired like a machine, working, and pacing, and blowing off steam.

You say I killed hope, but she's alive and well.
She's what keeps me afloat.

Though I stilI long for your presence, and the way you counted on me,
but look at you, you're like ** Nanny McFee;
You stay while I need you, and when I want you, you leave.

So I'll leave you with this.

Alert self protection,
fend of anythang that may hinder your personal development.

Satisfy your needs undisturbed,
devote yourself, and recharge.

Crisis proof, existential survival,
create your stable solid base for life to thrive.

Important sense of well being is joyful fulfillment of desire.
Take the earthy thoughts I left you and start a fire.

Vigorous effort.

Be inspired, allow yourself to give your all
and resolutely fend off injustice and make it fall.

Isn't it sad
How some of us
Need others to
Define who exactly we are?
It's crazy how people transform us,
they change us and rearrange us.
We help, but they do most of the work,
whether it be with a smile, or a hand to hold.

If you look into someones eyes,
and you stare at them just long enough,
something clicks and fireworks fly,
it's a crazy thing, that word love.

No one can deny,
that feeling inside,
the butterflies,
when the stars align,
how good it feels,
just to be alive,
just to hold you tight,
hold you by my side,
and to call you mine.

No feeling is greater,
than that of love.

1.) I'm tired of lighting cigarettes and joints when I really just want to light my insides on fire.
2.) I'm tired of kissing boring girls and boring boys in hopes of feeling something other than this eternal silence inside of me.
3.) I'm tired of drinking 20 cups of black coffee hoping the caffeine will stop my heart.
4.) I'm tired of taking blue pills, snorting white lines, shots of ***** and **** rips to hold me over for a couple hours.
5.) I'm really ******* tired of shaking between highs, head between my knees, heart pounding, breaking into a cold sweat.

I'm tired of being an addict.
I wrote this a week before I left for treatment for addiction.

in a mere second, the words "i can't live without you" become a simple cliché that diminishes from the tip of his tongue and slips right through his lips
words that you once heard from his intoxicating voice
thinking about the nights when you felt so alone beside him, craving for his touch
he was an addiction, a drug, a dependency, and a virus
you were an addict of love, of something that no longer exists
as you try to crawl your way back to what you can't have
and when its 3 am and your ears are pounding
its his name running through them
but he has music playing in his ears
while the addiction continues to dominate you
there may be some lines I've already used before but i really like how this turned out

Sometimes the temptation to succumb to you is far too strong for me to bare.

I long to feel some sense of numbing and I know that caving into you will accomplish just that.

Then I face the harsh reality that at some point I will have to suffer.

Rather it now or later, I will have to open myself to that hurt and heal.

I can go it alone you see.
I'm a lone wolf breed
From a caring and sharing creed
But I'm not yours and you're not mine
Cause ownership and possession is greed
Insecurity it feeds.
Don't wanna be dependent on
Just wanna rest in the knowing
I can depend upon
You and you upon me
Cause that's when you and I
Are strongest you see.
Separate entities choosing to support
The structure of "WE"
I think this is where a lot of us go wrong in our relationships. I believe and hope for myself any way that it will be based on Two Individuals choosing to be together out of love not feeling unable to be without eachother out of fear.

I don't want to be your hero, nor your ******
Because they provide instantaneous relief but neither are free
The cost, your life, surrendered to addiction
And hero's are a work of fiction
And I want you to love me with no dependency
With out missed calls leading to withdrawals
9.2million are addicted to ******
And I want only you to be free from addiction and love me
Do me a favor and don't make me just be your savior
You're disillusioned into thinking I'm Jesus
When I just satisfy your companionship lust
You say I make you feel better
But when I'm not around
It seems I make things worse
You say I don't of course
To trick me to stay
But you love me in a completely different way
You need to fix yourself from the source
Because I'm worn so thin
And all your healing
has to come
from within
4/3/2014. I wrote this about relationships involving codependency because I think it's something that is very harsh and counterproductive on both members of a relationship. It's about how no one can be your savior except your self ultimately.

This day needs tomorrow
As much as
Tomorrow needs today.
Throw a stone,
Watch ripples lick the shore,
Then turn around
And ripple more;
Like magician's rings,
Smoke rings,
Wedding rings,
Entangling,
Enriching,
Intertwining,
Becoming Olympian.
At the epicentre
It's calm.
Relax
