hard man

a hard man doesn't need to shout
threaten or front it out
a hard man can crack an egg
without breaking the yolk

Knife to my neck,
He licked the tears off me.

Snake

She'll make you believe in
failure-
Causing bad vision

Blurring your thoughts

Poison your decisions

She snakes her way in,
Seductive and smooth

You fall into her eyes

Not feeling the chew

All the way in,
Crushing your insides

Surrounded by darkness

Having no time to realize

Your worth
You given to her

Talent can be built up or swallowed away

Neurotic

The rumbling of the coming earthquake
echoes beneath my surface,
threatening the very idea of normality.

~~ Writing poetry for you could never be more incredible, even if I may collapse with every word I write. ~~

Hopeless and Smokeless

I tried to quit
This awful Habit
I ended up far deeper
Into this hole I dug.
♦♦♦
I'm hopeless and smokeless,
and just imagining
How much I love the taste of smoke.
♦♦♦
You call me a fool,
and threaten to leave
Have you tasted this magnificent taste?
♦♦♦
You throw them away
and scream and yell
I am back to this depressing state.
♦♦♦
Now I am hopeless and smokeless
and ready to leave
Five more dollars,
and I think I am free.
♦♦♦
I won't be free when I'm dead
Or gone crazy inside my head
I'm still hopeless and smokeless
But now I'm a fool.
