the black rose Dec 2018
where i am from
ignorance is like a crown
worn ever-so proudly,
and detriment like softened blows
taken ever-so mildly.
       there is foolish pride here,
       there is no one to guide here.
everyone just cries
& complains all the time
& i guess it’s in the nature
of the poor
unconditioned minds.
i guess it’s what you do
when you know of nothing else.
i guess it’s what you do
when you know nothing of ones self.
i am of the few
that knows just what to do,
but if you are not popular
in society view
then who are you?
you do not matter.
they do not hear the words you say,
but it is fine
just save yourself,
they’ll see you tried to help
some day.
some day too late.

i gathered all the pieces
of my desolated heart.
i sorted my emotions,
took my being full apart.
i emptied my mind
of the clutter,
of fear.
i opened my eyes
& the truth was right there.
i stopped feeling sorry,
no pity,
no doubt.
i brooded the confusion,
i found my way out.
i made me a promise
to seek what is real,
broke free from a *******,
this is how
i healed.
true story

i’ve seen you here
sometime before.
ive felt you here,
but im not sure.
are you a dream?
non-lucid thought?
prophetic screening,
un-clever truth.
familiar feelings,
deja-vu.
the black rose Dec 2018
like i am hot or cold,
like i am white or black,
like some gleam in abundance
and others form a lack;
i am either
elated
and ecstatic
or drowning in a sadness,
either dancing with the angels
or travelling the madness.
the black rose Dec 2018
bear in mind
im dark as shadows,
im deeper than abyss.
secluded,
and deluded
closed tightly like a fist.
the black rose Dec 2018
my mind won’t accept the fact that you are what my heart wants;
they fight every hour
on the hour.
my mind says it’s dumb and it will never work
my heart says:
“real love has the power
to move mountains,
& break broundaries.
so listen when i say,
just follow me &
trust that i will show you the right way.”
the black rose Dec 2018
since forever doesn’t last,
just love me til whenever.
when the physical has passed
let our souls dance together.
the black rose Dec 2018
they say
the truth ain’t pretty,
but
you are.
you know plenty
and
you don’t know too many.
you are
so fitting,
always in your zone.
always by yourself,
never feeling alone.
making solitude your home.
the black rose Dec 2018
you stroke all of my weak spots,
true colors are a bleak,
emitting radiation
to reveal what's underneath.
your love is like a drug,
so bad
but
yet
so good.
your lips
are worth me dying,
destroy me like you should.
he is kryptonite to my superman
the black rose Dec 2018
make a home in your chaos,
embrace your inner madness,
it is better to light a candle
than to curse the darkness.
