I searched for what I was missing
Discovered something else instead
It certainly filled the hole inside
Filled me up with lead

Now I've adapted different versions
Of the face I wear each day
It's hard to tell the truth apart
From the broken lies I say

Tried to **** the sadness
Looking for a cure
But I murdered more than intended
Which parts I am not sure

Past lingered like cheap perfume
I couldn't stand the smell
So I doused myself in gasoline
It seems it burned a little too well

Have I overdone it?
Invading every pore
Every cell in my body rearranged
At least Im not like I was before
I cut off too much of myself and now I'm more incomplete than ever
Ah Po' me trying to pen poems like Poe writes to right poetry
from the likes of poured me
who sweats thru his pores to pour out his soul, and try out ANu poesi

On a foggy morning

Leaves swoon
as fog hugs the tree
kissing its pores
with open wet lips.

the breeze hisses
in jealousy.

the sun
looks away.

the sparrow
laments
her lost love.

I can feel you fading away
From every pore of my body
Your existence is sweating out
Leaving me anew.

I can feel my heart
Healing itself,
Only peace resides inside.

I can feel things changing
For a better future,
For me to start living again and
For me to fall in love with myself
Once again
I can see stars in your eyes twinkling to pursue 
Remain on rose of my heart like a drop of dew 
You are beauty of class just keep all that in view  
Please take me in your arms and let both be thru  

 Your innocence and graces surpass all the races 
Love comes near beauty graces and embraces
 All in its entirety with all the charming bases
 All the world is full of such lovely romantic cases  

 I love you and adore for my love more and more 
You are traveling in my blood from pore to pore
 I can not tell in words how much love is in store 
This I know people talk about us from door to door

I can’t come to you for my pain in the throat

But I can for the pain in my soul.

Perception is your prescription

Somehow I took too many dose

My pore my nostrils

Inflated with the onrush of ecstasy

It’s mistaken,

Curiosity should be the cure.
