There can be a bad hour in a good morning There can be a bad morning in a good day There can be a bad day in a good week There can be a bad week in a good month There can be a bad month in a good year I know sometimes we all go through bad times In those bad times we think we live a bad life But as our clocks tick and they wind you'll look back on your life Realizing that in life there are bad times But count up all of the bad times In your lifetime you'll realize that life is full of bad times But all those bad times don't add up to a bad lifetime

Bad
I cleansed myself of my bad habits. I cleansed my lies with the truth. Day by day our love fought, until year number two. My fear of losing you was the roof, Our lips met I wish they'd have stuck together like glue. I was ready to take the leap to the deep oceans blue, You opened the door just for me to walk through. Saying the type of love I wish for isn't with you. Desperate for company on my lonely walk home, I lit a cigarette if only I'd known... I thought cleansed my bad habits if only I knew, To cleanse my bad habits I had to cleanse myself from You.

Cleanse
Every so often I fade deep in my thoughts and get lost in the days A land before clocks would invade The beauty of time was then slayed For a minute it seems as if mankind got lost in our ways But I'm not afraid. To be a leader To be remembered by the readers So dearest cosmos, "I must know when my time is." As my generations finest Wordsmith who with a thousand words paints an image vivid enough to cure blindness brushed with these thoughts I let linger To all these strangers but see That's the danger. For I feel as if they know me better than I know myself These voices surely can't be right for my health For my ears they bleed as they scream "Don't give them too much you." "But what else am I to do? To get my message through?" "Don't let them take control." "What if they have? How am I to know?" "Please if there's one thing you do.." "Honestly what do I have to lose?" "Don't you dare lose your soul." Its all physics so please put your ego aside For if it were to collide With your soul there'd be no standing point for your demons to hide. Its been one hell of a ride, As the cosmos I must let it be known I've heard your Deepest of cries. So when you ask me when will it be your time? I say to you my child *December 13th the day the genius did rise.*

December 13th
Scared is my lone feeling, scared of my own immaturity. Scared of my own ceiling, scared I'll die of uncertainty. Stared at my own image, scared of my grown insecurities. Glared at my told limits, dared to be stopped by adversity. It's clear who bestowed this hex on me. I bleed clear, that's anxiety. I fear for what's inside of me. I can no longer hide it quietly. So just don't forget about me. For even when I doubt you. Know I do now, I'm no good without you. No, no. The temperature's dropping. The predator's camouflaging. He doesn't think that I can, see but I feel him watching. As I'm shaking hands with the dark parts of my thoughts, woah. They sense body heat yet with that shake I might as well be, ghost. Now see sometimes to stay alive you have to **** the warmth up in your, soul. They're gnawing on the mystic, clawing up the magician. Repeating simple phrases, "One day at a time." As someone holy insisted. I want the markings left on my skin, to mean something again. Please don't leave without me. I know how fast doubt be. Don't forget about me, For even if I doubt you. I can't leave without you.

Doubt you
I'm not suppose to be here, yet I breathe on. I cheated death many times, coincidence it must be beyond. If I detailed my life, how would I be described? A house isn't a home with a broken family inside. his smile subsides his favorite mask to hide behind. A mask isn't a face just a cover with a broken genius inside. I go for my morning walk hail's pelting my skin It's time for my morning talk hell's melting within I can't I can't keep acting like I'm fine I can't I can't save my mind this time

I'm Not Suppose To Be Here
"The only true wealth lies within love..." They say Love is as it leaves me, Unstable Some days I'm rich sometimes I'm broke Somedays I spend too much on the wrong people Sometimes I even spend all my Hope

Somedays Love, Sometimes Sad
We're gathered round under the soft glow of christmas lights. The energy gets heavy you can feel it, for once it seems im in a place, for the first time; I can't explain everything just feels right.

Acid Diaries
When I think of you I just smile I guess? It happens all the time Like when I was walking through the forest brush. To put it best If I fell for you when I was all alone would you hear? I fell for you not by looking in your eyes because they always catch me. I fell for you when I needed to be caught but could not find your stare. If I fell for you all alone in the dark would you find your way here? With a glass of your soul oh that soul that opened my mind's gate this must be heaven . A glass of your soul when I'm lost all alone That's my spiritual refreshment.

Spiritual refreshment
I Remember the first time I got butterflies merely by a response Your interest in me that second that second was the second I was no longer lost I felt on top of the world in an instant two years later I was melting away in it's core But then I met her and I was sure by god she's a breathe of fresh air Your vibe is so bright I'll go blind but I don't mind the glare I still stare My last love left my blood boiling soul melting at it's core but you brought my drowning ego ashore for you I'm willing to risk that feeling once more

Untitled
Often I've been told I know my way around words Funny I find that, they just seem to fly off my tongue Escape my fingertips like, from a nest a flock of birds I missed you like a call that never rung In these moments of solitude far after loves gone, I find it easy to explain Always do I find the words of feelings as they say Yet in that moment as you turn to glace at me a final time I can never find the words "Wait, but please stay"

Dear Life,
Inhale                                       close your eyes Open your mind                                     exhale Now it's time                                      to Set sail To where wild things are Just imagine ahh!                     Real monsters Now do you see a beautifully unique creature? Or did you cringe with grimance by sheer glimpse of each and every feature? Actions speak louder than words that’s true, but that hideous monster was you. Your actions                                      seem nice that monster reflected in your eyes, so i thought twice. A raw soul                                             exposed Pain flourishes because failure to even recognize yourself Pure and true                             divine and all a mortal god Not how you fantasized       un-glamourized de-romantized Flaws and scars from wall to ******* wall Words are full of lies Actions                                     a mere disquise Don’t buy their decietful bribes If you’re going to believe in anything Believe in the vibes seeping from deep inside Believe in their monsters cries I Believe In what I see I see monster’s hiding in every skin I meet I Believe in the monster in me Just imagine real monsters roaming free

It’s a shame to me, to witness what’s become of the culture that raised me. We’re sold on what was preached as good advice. “Shoot for the moon because even If you miss, you’ll be amongst the stars.” But see I feel that statement could use some clarification. Our eyes glisten from the brightness of the so ever infinite beauty, but what if I told you that beauty was the cause of my pain? What if I told you that the real moon's right here on planet earth? There’s 7 billion galaxies right in front of us, going unseen. What If I told you the term “Shoot for the moon”, really meant shoot for someone’s heart, not the one that reigns above us from afar? There’s the most beautiful galaxy, nestled beneath the skin of someone who’s so lost they don’t sleep. The stars within are cloaked by the clouds of their depression, Also insecurities. Waiting to be the butterflies that dance to the rhythm of your heartbeat, waiting to be your favorite twinkle in her eyes. Waiting to show you a new color you notice when she smiles and, that will be your new favorite color. So If we’ve lost sight of the galaxies within our life, all because they weren’t visable as hope in the dark night sky. How long until we lose sight to those too?

Galaxies
It's dark out, A cold winter night. Awfully lonely even for me. A howl echoes throughout the silence, my heart drops. A howl that entered through one ear and echoed loud for my soul to hear. Would it be sinister to say I smiled knowing I wasn't the only one here? A smile becomes a sarcastic laugh of desperation, being ironic I joined with crying howls to the moon. Before I could finish the wolf howls again. I learned something that night, I solved the answer to love. Find your moon, find someone who brings light to your darkness. Find someone who, when you feel like a lone wolf with a numb soul; Will be your moon to howl to. We'd be a beautiful love song. I learned hope is when a lone wolf sings to a moon, as if it'd reach. A Favorite melody howled the lone wolf so heavenly. A rhythme being merely, an echo of his heartbeat. Love is feeling that heartbeat and hearing a melody. Then singing all the words otherwise too scared to speak.

The Wolf and The Moon, A True Love Story
“Everybody dies, but not everybody lives.” But how do you tell if, you’re living or not? Everyone knows how, being happy feels. But how do you know, If that feeling’s real? In a moment of perfection how will you react upon realizing that, euphoric sensation of nirvana.... Was nothing more than, bliss by convience? The mind will probably go numb, most likely go cold inside and wonder; Death, could this be how death feels? What a terrifying feeling to have been so confident, the storm was over. So confident the sun was peaking through the clouds, swore to have even felt it’s warmth. Oh the eye; my hope died in the eye of the storm. I died in the eye of the storm, but was I even alive? Resurrection I found in her eyes, what a time to be alive. What A euphoria for had I not first died, today I would not be so alive. "Everybody dies but, not everybody lives." Not everybody lives because, not everybody dies twice.

To Live, First Die
I stay in my bedroom. It's the four of us, sometimes more of us but we stay in my bedroom. We're laughing, drinking, off note but we're singing. We're sking, not off slopes but coke has us being, Naked freely, give the word ****** a new meaning. Conversations like constellations of naked energy connecting in the darkness. ******* poetry so ****** is the concept. I'm not real, please don't take ****** out of context. Druken words from your voice just sounds like love & birds I must confess I lust for Conversations of naked souls, I lust for con-sex. I lust to remember these nights even more, but that's a long stretch. Til next time, sincerely, a gone mess.

Memories I Don't Remember
I.Q's are at a parallel with expectations. Exceptionally high at a parallel with section 8 incarcarations. Beware of the dropouts, for they seek what lies beyond reach. Beware because they seek wisdom far beyond what a college could teach. Beware of the most hateful heart, for one day it'll become the most powerful love. Beware of the addict to kick the habit to find art, as the most powerful drug. Born from the white picket fence cementry, becoming the change always seeked in his dreams. A Fire in his chest. A burning soul, a phoenix that rebirths from the ashes of his words. The Genius Of The Suburbs.

The Genius Of The Suburbs
Roses are red, somewhat like my heart. The sky is blue and the sun is gold or so I'm told. Roses die and my heart skips beats when I think of you. Please allow me to be so bold. The sky is gold, and the sun is blue. Your skin is warm with eyes that blind. Baby I don't ever see night with you.

Another Cliché
"Love" and "hate" are said to be the strongest words of feelings. Oh these feelings, never imagined I would feel this again. I "love it", I "Love you". Oh these feelings, never imagined I would feel this again. I "hate it", I "hate you". These are said to be the strongest feelings, yet what comes prior truly envokes the most meaning. Oh these feelings, never imagined I would feel this again. I ******* "love it", I ******* "love you". Oh these feelings, never imagined I would feel this again. I ******* "hate it", I ******* "hate you". ******* speak to me, the word ******* at the perfect ******* moment really ******* speaks to me. "Love" and "hate" are said to be the strongest words of feeling. But read this poem over again and tell me, where you can truly feel the words of my feelings.

Strongest Word Of Feeling
Dear Life, Funny is it not? We loved eachother, just never at the same time. Lately it's been lingering constantly on my mind, yet I still continue to walts around like I'm fine. I Took you for granted, so understanding I am as to why you can no longer stand it. But "Life's a game right?"  I guess I just- I just grew tired of the ******** hands from you I was handed. Tired of standing alone in sorrow, of drowning in feelings. That eight year rain shower killed me, but could've given you a sibling on a drier planet. Like mars, life you could've had a brother on mars. But instead you chose me, A guy that feels way to ******* much, way to ******* deep. So Why me? Why should I  sleep? So I can dream of a girl I know, who's exactly like me but doesn't like me? Why, see? It's only been a week so why do I feel confident she's the one I need? Why do I cry and feel hopeless seeing scripted love on a screen? Why do I relate more, feel closer to fictional characters than the ones next to me? Dear life, I wrote you the key to my mind without thinking twice. I don't ask for your sympathy, but a key for simplicity will suffice.
