There was a day that I watched my own essence split, And two versions of myself dissected as they emerged But the first version that was real split and disappeared. I guess it couldn't live through my tremorous surge. It was the same day my hands started to disobey, They kept pulling on a love that wouldn't stay close. They started acted like my heart was invincible. They acted like my heart dwelled in a vacant ghost. I learned the hard way that the eyes tell only lies. Flipping all we see, even before it's actually observed. I thought I knew the things that we all assume we know. I thought I knew my own place on the face of earth. Then I learned how the world actually curves wrong, As if it's not a sphere at all, but rather con cave. Like we were never outside, but inside the hollow. Intentionally, the eyes fault our perception of shape. There is a way that my heart has its own thoughts. Then there's the way that my brain started feeling pain. I know it by the way my body just begs and begs. Until it gives up and I crash for the first time in days. There was a day that I watched my own Essence split. Two versions of myself dissected as they emerged. But the first version that was real split and disappeared This was the day I had to watch my reflection burn. Or maybe he is me, but we don't want to be seen. Maybe just buried my light a little too deep. Maybe I am not filthy cause, no one is clean. Maybe I'm the only one who is my enemy. Maybe I was not found, cause I didn't need to be. Maybe I am not bound just afraid of being free. Maybe trying to **** my demons is slowly killing me, Cause maybe I'm not the person that I didn't want to be.

They Day My Essence Split

We were in love, successful, and happy, We had a graphic novel series and a hit CD. We did everything together, I stood tall beside her, Then some insecure scientist turned on their __LARGE__ particle collider. Right was blue, and light was square, and time was east, Now she's married to another man, and I got no teef!

Hadron, You *******
Maybe in an alternate universe, we worked out. To broken promises & unfinished relationships, To the random stranger you lock eyes with on the street, And wish you knew. To the smiling baby in a lady's arms, You wish was yours. To the entwined fingers of a passing couple, which would have been yours, if only he stayed. But maybe? Just maybe? But hope is a dangerous thing for a woman like me to have.

Maybe?
I must’ve known you in a past life You feel so familiar Even when I didn’t know that I knew you I knew There was something in the way The warmth radiated from your skin Caramel macchiato I drank you in The baritone of your laugh You were so familiar Yet we had just met Your silhouette Was one I had seen before But not in this lifetime Were you mine in another one? Slipping through my fingers like silk Always one grasp away But you’re never gone The way you remain like the rain Soaking grass in spring And I’m thirsty for you For endless nights talking in darkness Till light came in again And never running out of words But even as we spoke it felt so deja vu Don’t I already know you? How do you know me so well? Like your code is written into my cells, I feel you on a molecular level Your soul intertwined in mine But never fully actualized in this timeline Years and years come and go But your “aww” and chuckle never fade, I hear it like you smiled that way you do Like it was yesterday Time a construction that doesn’t function In the realities in which I know you I have known you You’ve been mine and I yours In lifetimes before In present, eyes closed I manifest My me’s and your you’s Subconscious whispers traveling Through time and space Dimensions unknown But I know It’s you and you know It’s me too.

Past Life
A single drop of water seems inconsequential, But a bunch of them create alternate reality. Should we continue to hustle where we are? Or should we plunge into the one below where time is loosened and us free of captivity?

Alternate Reality
I often wonder what my life would have Been like, had it started differently. If I had a mother who adored me. Gave me all the affection I wanted. Protected me when I needed. If I'd still be the same. My tragic life of Misfortune, neglect, pain, Suffering, **** abuse, and fear Have shaped me Created the girl that I am. With a moral code so strong, With standards about empathy and caring So above standard. I am reminded daily. "Not everyone is like you. Not everyone cares as strongly, For so many as you do." Would that girl be gone? I believe the tragic life, That i was given, Was to create the woman that I am today. And the outstanding and amazing Father I was given, Was to offset the mother I was denied. And anyday of the week. Any year in my life. I'd take the life and father i was given, Over a better life without him. And without the woman that I became.

I Wonder?
If we lived in a world Where you didn’t age a day until you met your soulmate I would have gotten my first grey hair When I met you

Alternate reality
In this imaginary world where we can escape from reality. I am the ruler of my own kingdom. Who ever reads my pieces lives through every story. You shall take part in my mission to shape this kingdom to rule over this world. Like every ruler needs, I need someone to be my adviser. Will you be that someone?
