Smoking until struggles fade to black
Leave for awhile but always come back
To the dust collected in my nooks
Heard by crannies between books

I fear none of problems non-existent replies
The gaze from inanimate objects eyes
Control the balance of my silent possessions
They swirl in the wake of my useless expressions

I stand firm amidst the hum of talking nothingness
My hands like swords in my confessed stress
World is small
Yet this planet so large
My fight I falter as troubles barge

No orders conquer my will to go on
Am a survivor of each passing dawn
Home is battlefield in which I slumber
My skills adapt and grow in number

They are put to test by life's curveballs
Believe in what is at the top of these walls
Waving freedom with my face in the mud
Death nobly boiling in my blood

As I try to improve presence bit by bit
Rings distant from where I sit
I continue forth hoping better is what tomorrow will be
No way to tell
I guess I'll have to wait and see
I personally think this one is crap but tell me what YOU think..

I put my all my heart into my writing
As a result, am I left heartless?

I suppose as long as you embrace the death of your sanity,
It never truly dies.

So wonderful
Yet so easily severed
The bonds that ties us
I wish they'll last forever
Because not being with you
Will only make me sadder

If
If I call your name would you respond?
It has been so long since I last heard your voice.
I can barely remember your face and I doubt you remember mine.
If I have told you sooner would things have changed?
Or would our relationship still fade into obscurity and everything will be the same.
Random
Is not fear.

Is far from having nothing to say.

Respect  Silence.

I'd wish it was

The ripping inside
Hammers bang the skull
Eyes cry acid

Anger is shaking me
It's screaming through the jitters
Eyes are the source of a waterfall
Tearing apart with sight

Feet are going raw
Sound is scratching
Touch is burning

Slipping through it all

A deep sorrow opens the gate
Leaving the land dead
Gasping
Dust is flying

Gone

I'd wish it gone
