Synapses

A scien’terrific, spiri’tool
To fool around with; a reality
The best of microscopes can see
And measure.
Pure arithme-ticking over,
Showering the brain with light;
Sparks queueing up in scans,
A cue to IQ variations, and
The more the better.
Riches of all human wishes lying there
Waiting to be bared then shared:
Nature in infinitude.

One good turn deserves another;
One good synapse serves another.
“Wakey, wakey” here comes knowledge!
Insights new, fresh out of college!
Insights causing you to grow;
Daring you to dare to go;
Blowing horns you dared not blow.
Synapse and invention new;
By definition a new you.

I’m signing off with love (or luff),
This synapse stuff the glove
That warms,
Synapses’ arms
The magic charm.

I love this one.  Thought of it, wrote it in the bath, soaking paper and all.

Peal back my skin,
Tear through my ribs.
Find my heart
(Rotting, rotting, rotting)
Inside me after all.

Fool
Of you
To believe
In this
Truth
That I have
What you need
Open my palms
Then you'll see

That I have nothing for your hands
That to me,
A constant mystery

Closed up
Not for you to touch

Take away
Any way from this
You Can't

I thought he was what I wanted then my heart told me I lied. That karma is a ***** and my sins caught up to me. He would sweet talk me and I would play lead. I kissed him under the stars wishing you were under me.I would still trace the places your emotions dance on. I would moan your name instead of his. Your my actual drug that I need twice a day. I would sit and dream putting you on reply. Then he would show up and you'd be on pause while I lift up a curtain of my own demise. He left, you came and it all starts again. I am still submissive to you. Take your slave for she is weak. Punish her for wasting your time. And if she begs ....
A girl lost in her own words. Never to return but he never really realized he was only there to pass time and she camped out in her heart.  Her and only her.

There they were
Just the two of them
Surronded by many
Yet in their own world
She laid her head on his shoulder
And he held her tight
Because he wanted her forever
She drifted into the happiest sleep of her life
He saw her and he just smiled
Because he knew
She was happy

Is it wrong to be happy for others
To smile when I see others happy
I saw them
I was happy for them
Maybe because I want to be happy

Is it wrong to want to be happy
I want to be so happy
I feel high
Because I'm so low
Hell seems like a high

Is it wrong to want to be happy
Even after everything I've done
Something in me wants to be happy
But I don't deserve it
So I deny myself the experience of happiness

Instead I intrude on others happiness
Because all I want in life
Is to know how happy feels

In poetry
nothing
can
reflect
anything
all the characters are fictional
or not
or maybe

Your mouth is a gun
And each I LOVE YOU
Is a bullet, reminding me
That im alive.

They're breaking out
Couldn't care enough
No matter if I shout
They're pretty tough

The true apocalypse
That no one will fix
I've made aberrations ever since 
Now I have to pay for my sins

I've made unforgivable mistakes
Enough to cause an earthquake 
Able to shake the coldest hearts
Showing them who we really are

"Surely It couldn't get worst"
But here I've become their host
You unleashed the demons
My inner demons

All goals are lost
Hopeless to survive
Deep in my soul
Infected inside 

Mayday mayday rescue me from myself
I'll be the next victim laying on the shelf
Mayday mayday, I can't escape this hell
I'm right here trapped in another realm

Trapping me with their chains
The spark has died and here I faint
Help me I can't stand the pain  
I have to go through this vain

Either set my human soul free to fly   
Or **** my demon already and let me die
When a person asks for your help, don't hesitate to lend them your hand, because you never know what they're going through. One of most noticeable mistakes in our society is greed which creates hatred, eventually breaking down our society.
