minor surgery
The emptiness, that fills The hollow cavity, where A heart should beat. Where blood would go Now, nothing flows. What is there, that is meant to be? Of the things kept inside, And all the pain I've tried to hide. Turned outside, onto the world, Wherein the soul reside. Spilled, to the ground The collapse, of all that surrounds. Careening down, The end of a life.

No Way Returned
They say space is without gravity If an astronaut tries to land He will need a hand They say space is empty Only celestial bodies fill the emptiness If a galaxy fades, no will notice this Space isn't all that I pictured it Yet, Earth is in need of it That's why it rockets around the asteroids and debris

Rockets in space
you have an addictive personality that's what they say. you threw your arms around me too fast like a hurricane, consuming me completely. i don't doubt the sincerity in those moments and whispers too pure to be lies, your sweetness like a cavity. but now i see it for what it was your latest fixation simply a way to pass the time i was just another habit to break.

musings for an addict
Coming from the mouth of hate A deep green ink tumbling out With those **** red petals Having been stained by the blood Spilling into vile words of suffering Twisting this way and that As if alive- slithering into place I would plunge the dagger Deeper still into your chest Turning it and slicing on either side Until I could reach in and pluck That beating ***** from the cavity And hold it in my hand, so tenderly Just as I always have been with you And then crush it in between palms Applying more pressure until The pain is unbearable and then Maybe you will have felt What you've put me through

"My Sweet"
Monsoon morning glow, glinting off another dying ditch Littering, barely twitching instrument of compact destruction. Noticeably different, near juxtaposed against the back light. Noticeably strained, a coming age relegated to natural composition It's hard to hold, memory, fragile fleeting Slipped from its hold so easily, another piece shattering as it falls. Repetition breeding more empathy than I can continually malign. Forceful premonitions, until the choice to deny is taken from me. All my thoughts, premeditated, actions, all deliberate The illusion of choice shattered before me, as I take up my ill gotten arms. Bolster myself with courage I no longer deserve. And I get scared about just having to wake up sometimes.

My love life is a catch 22
The flood left a cavity. It came in without mercy, It removed and ripped what I held onto, It took away what I loved, But it's ironic that a flood of love removed all the love that I ever had. The flood diluted it's impurities with my purities.

Diluted
love will come to you at random times in your life. when you least expect it, but when you realize that you are in love, you will understand that it happened for a reason. you will find yourself undeniably happy and when heartbreak comes, you will hate everything, but you must remember that your heart will learn from this and is making room for the next person to show up in your life and live inside the cavity of your chest.

You Will
I think you are a cavity In the way that everything that led to now Was sweet But now I can't get rid of you And you are just a sore

Sweet Tooth
You are so sweet tasting like sugar, sweet liquorice, drenched honey I want as much of you as my mouth will allow I'm such a fool for wondering why I have a cavity now that you've left.

Lips Like Liquorice
I used to have a voice In my head Telling me the reason Why I do things Now I despise that voice Even though it is the Voice of Reason When you only listen To the sadness Anger and malice In the voice Of others You end up Below the empty well How can I be helped? Is there a way back up From the dark well? How does someone Help herself Trapped only with The wrong voices Inside her head? Day by day I will lose a fingernail Climbing out Of the silent well I had sorrowfully dropped my mind into But I will gain what I have lost And if hope will allow Grow back my jaw And you will hear The solution To fill the well inside of you

The Well
You are The sea Your tides Washing upon My hearts Shore Leaving pieces Of salty Driftwood Burning brightly In spectacular Shades of Green and Blue The ashes Resting in My chest Cavity where My soul Peacefully resides
