watch out because the wall flower sees all
deflowered, standing tall
at attention, eyes peeled
but hidden underneath a veil
of nothing, only an invisible wall
promoting myself on twitter, I wonder how far that will get me

At the throat of the world
He is despondent, and disillusioned
Wildfire sneaky devil in heaven
He is a kid, a miracle and death
I hate can't that tired soul
I want him to be everything
Warm, soft and bigger than life embrace.

Ginger spiced sense of perception, each breath the taste of heat.
Mental ferocity, I am a beast who hungers my daily meat.

I claw the flesh and bite deep, not letting go of my new victim.
For she is weak and I am strong, thus how I have always picked them.

I am a lion, she the pray, those words cut like my teeth.
Mental ferocity, I am a beast who hungers my daily meat.
I don't really know

I know why Lola did it.
And I know she'll do it again.
Someone like me has got to leave
I've just gotta figure out when.

I know why Lola did it.
It wasn't just for fun.
It's taken me two years of tears
But now I've narrowed it to one.

I know why Lola did it.
She'd done it all before.
What a friend I have and then
Nobody will let me know any more.

Lola is the type to stay hidden in the grass,
In the past, in the night
One second I'm stuck here in fright.
She's still so young in her mind,
So unkind, so alive
Let me tell you I'm not a child.
Lola.

I know why Lola did it.
She couldn't stand the thought.
Of him choosing me over her
So she had to let him rot.

Lola.
Lola.
Why?
Lola is a real person who's name has been changed. What a strange lady.

Spy
Hide and blend to not be seen.
Never be uncovered to never be deemed.  Walking into danger, to help at hand. Always pretending to be another man. With my gadgets I'll always show, that pics are important for those who know. But If ever caught I have a plan to end my life, with a pill at hand.

The Age is coming
All seems to return
My world is upside down
My heart begins to burn

Anxiety
Beginning to rise
And everything I've worked hard for
Slowly beginning to die

Smoking more and more
Popping harder than I've ever done before

Fading
By the minute
Mind racing
A thousand miles a second

Slowly shutting down
I wish to keep on going
But I've seem to hit the ground

Twisted
I need to get my head on straight
Before it's too late
And I become addicted to this state
Working my way to burn out of this phase.

Papa's ship is sinking in the sea
Everyone asked everyone, how could this be?
Who put it there?
We've searched everywhere
I may never tell anyone. That person is me.

Today I will go binge eating the alphabet
And coughing up peacock feathers
from my fox like habits
Of being sneaky
       And writing in the dark
  Or in my dreams
Today all poems will be from the past twenty-four hours. Here we go.

Love;
It sneaks up on you
Like a fearless lion,
Approaching its prey.
It's feirce and strong
And overwhelming.
You never see it coming,
But once it pounces,
There's no getting out.
You might fight
For your life, but
There is no use.
Before you know it,
Love is ripping
Your heart out,
Eating you alive.
Love is a preditor,
And you are it's prey.
