#captures
the mindless spot i stare to
of a constantly ticking mechanic.
why is it that it's always
the mixed dance of turning hands?
is it because the timekeeper
is unchanging no matter what?
no speeding up or slowing down
or fear of something unpredicted?
maybe it's secretly comforting
to invariably know its heartbeat.
maybe it comforts to know
that time can dictate for me.
either way i'm drawn
to the hypnosis of the clock,
its eternal waltz of minutes and seconds
capturing my sight each and every time.

The wheels of time spins in my direction knocking me off my feet
telling me I need to yield for it is my master. Time the illusional master captures me, casting shadows on my mind, body and heart.
imprisoning my thoughts and emotions with promises to sooth my pain

An Anaconda,
captures it's prey, then eats it,
swallowing it whole.

Just in time
He shows up
Takes my hand
Captures my heart
Just in Time
He shows up
Not so perfect
But just enough

Lifes blood ebbs away
I'm sorry I could not stay
But life will go on
I was no longer strong
Even a diamond can crack
And no one had my back
Don't cry for me
Just because my body you can't see
I leave you memories, and love
And now this agony I'm gonna be free of
I've written it down the best I could
And maybe by some I'll be understood
My poems capture my life and torment
Put into this world for Gods enjoyment
With all this pain and remorse
I took this way out, of course
It's not the easy way out, as they say
I thought it through for days and days
My thoughts have formed a noose
And more pain made sure it wasn't lose
So now all I need is to step off this chair
And become so unaware........

A cruel and heartless obsession…
I am only ever seen as a possession.
