#deserved
A story told many times before
A terribly ugly monster, rotten to the core
I think we all tend to forget
That before she was a threat
She was once like us
Not something to cuss
She was serene and holy
And to Athena her heart belonged wholly
But the people to whom our hearts belong
Fail to protect us from other’s wrongs
We are shamed for their sins
Betrayed by our very own kin
Dejected, we carry our heads low
Aware of the “poison” we blow
We forget our beautiful features
Golden light blown out by those creatures
You were never the one meant to be cursed
Should’ve never been the one to go first
Maybe in reality…
…the monsters we see…
Are the ones we least expect them to be

I saw that split Maroon
All over your Royal cloth
But not that of wine or grapes
But of a betrayal beyond imagination
You never deserved this.
Only a select few do
Who knew you'd end
Like that of the rose
Or maybe that of apples
That hangs on The tree
The tree you were
never meant to see
You were evil, oh tyrant
but you helped us all
So did you deserve this?
Was it meant to happen?
If you were just another person
Hanging around in the streets
Would you have been murdered too?
This time, would anybody care?
So, soak in your cloth
And meet your god
I'll stay down on earth
And walk paths unknown to you

Fly, fly, fly away Ulysses
Now that you have wings;
Metamorphosis freedom
From doom ridden cocoons.
Dream bad dreams away Ulysses
Now that you’re far from me;
Gleaming dew, new kingdom
With kaleidoscope rooms.
Amber Phantom, transcend this plain
With your monarch to the skies.
May Heaven’s light bless you
To forget the stings of our night-
Confessions, confessions of your name
Ulysses, tear drops from crystalline eyes.
I coveted a soul absent body to abuse-
I found a Goddess small enough to bind.
-
Fly, fly, fly away Ulysses,
Sparkling star in an absence of light.
Flying slower after barbed entanglements,
Fly away, away, and don’t look behind.

I used to curse everything I touch
Not because of love
But because of selfish thoughts.
I thought that flattering speech
Would break your wounds
Not make things bleed,
But I blinded myself with my lust
And desires of feeling your want
And your trust.
Manipulation was always my hand,
Playing the cards that I can,
No thought out plans!
Why didn’t anyone break me down
So that I could bleed
And learn to stop bleeding others out!
I was no different from the other guys
Who broke hearts left and right
With their selfish eyes!
Selfish soul, selfish heart, selfish hands,
Selfish plans, selfish wants, selfish thoughts,
Selfish love, selfish hugs, selfish drug,
Selfish kisses, selfish wishes, selfishness is
Still my poison, still my pride, still my go to every time,
Still my way of acting, still my way of thinking,
Still my words, still all I’m speaking,
Still my default, still my function, still my assumption, still my
production,
Still something that I look in the mirror and see,
Still something I’m praying for God to take away from me.

Sweet Magnolia
Born in dead winter
Wouldn't have stood a chance
Even had Lady Luck pitied her

You deserved to be loved
Even so much more
Than you can think of
You are worthy
Of tender care
Of profound affection
The world is just
Not that generous now
Kind of stingy
Making you feel insecure
And unwarranted affliction
But please believe
You deserved to be loved
More than enough
Soon you will see
This is the truth
Not just some consolation

You wondered why
you keep finding
broken angels
everywhere.
All so scarred
and yet deserved
to be loved.
But they keep
putting walls so
high to prevent
people hurting
them.
You forgot, they
weren't supposed
to be down here
in the first
place.

And for those of you who don’t
Find Trump to be pernicious,
He shows his *** to one and all,
I hope you find it is delicious.
For those of you who lived in
Dream castles of foolish hope
You have backed an evil man
A charlatan and a dope.
If you tried hard and long
You could not have done worse
And that is the reason for
This neener neener verse.
I can’t think how he could
Have warned you any better.
He promised things intelligence
Could discredit by the letter.
He said he would do stuff
So totally unconstitutional,
That made the rich richer,
And proved you were delusional
To trust a total ripoff guy
Who has been cheating for years.
Why did you think this fool
Would allay any of your fears?
But still you all waved high
His stupid Chinese-made hats;
Bought him gold and diamond studs
For his brand new fancy spats.
And now he’s in the Capitol
Laughing at all of you dolts
YOU gave him weapons to use on you
Instead of a thousand volts.

Idle minds and weary hands
Destroy dams of flesh
And flood the lands

I think I saw you sometime yesterday
You had your hand in the pocket of a man
Saying things that you don't understand
Like you do every single day
Maybe all the good girls got away
And the man's got a smile on his face
I don't think he truly understands
What he's done and what he's gonna face
Did I mention, that you may have your taste
You're still just an old disgrace
A perfect day on a Sunday afternoon
The cafe crowd and a quiet, calm monsoon
Reaches down into a bag colored like the sun
And pulls out a gold encrusted gun
I hope the man had his days of fun

Oh heart,
You have been in pain.
For all this time.
You ache everyday,
As the war goes on.
Fear thee not,
Thy scorn will be venged.
When your mate of fire.
Comes to your bend.
Fear not my love,
My heart of Desire.
Your love will come,
He will be engulfed.
In healing Fire.
