Do colors seem pastel through eyes? Yellow sunshine overhead I wonder if hues would still appear bright If your property instead.. It could've stopped escalating Long long long ago No quantity of ******* in the universe Will stop from feeling hollow I'm sure ways exist to justify Type of behavior I hate Perception of surroundings is so skewed Probably think it looks great Why would tidiness matter to you? Not like the lot is in your name I am the one forced to deal with consequences You are the one to blame It is obvious to any rational mind Discipline is way past due No longer willing to ignore the signs The problem is linked to you You distinctly do not give a **** about our feelings Otherwise wouldn't have even begun Now your hoarding is so out of hand Don't recognize what land has become I suppose that is what we get for our kindness Foolishness leading us here No good deed unpunished If nothing else that much is clear This destiny avoidable Would have been easy to just say no Generosity in our nature Had no clue collection would grow Don't comprehend how people live In such a state of disarray Chaos utterly consuming all around Convinced carnage completely okay I would have never guessed a human being Could be so disastrous by design Have been too lenient but now It is about time we draw the line We offered a chance to change outcome Still carry on making a mess Zero guilt or remorse displayed This is what you call "trying your best" The stress getting heavier Longer we allow mayhem to go on Most ******** part is I suspect you believe Truly aren't doing anything wrong Maybe seek professional help Only suggesting because I care Anyone with some degree of mental stability Of disorder would be aware So you either are totally insane Or taking advantage of our big hearts Regardless something has to give Before each vehicle there is in parts The blatant disrespect overwhelming Allow an inch and you take a mile Only solution I can figure out Has been coming awhile Our patience wearing for months Finally it has broken through After the ******** we've tolerated What do you expect us to do? Just let you persist in accumulating junk? As if deed to there is your own? Until entire acre is swallowed up And gone is beautiful location once-known You have already inflicted a huge excess Of destruction that can't be reversed Acting entitled to anything there Helping yourself without inquiring first When you first parked bus we were misled Under impression it was a temporary situation Fact that your habitat keeps expanding Expresses this is more than only a vacation Are you even seeking somewhere else To store belongings and dwell? From where I'm standing it appears You revel in making lives hell Trash scattered in corners Gets worse as you round each next turn Are you that lazy and careless? You can't put in one place and burn? You disassemble things for no reason If unbroken you tear it in pieces Never reconstructing the objects you ruin All the while cache increases If not halted the amount will proceed growing Until visible from space I'd like to admit you are capable Sadly that is not the case Not to mention attention drawn From law enforcement appearing there Responding from neighbor's calls Epitomizing our worst nightmare The two properties connected by owner Labels us negatively for sure Positive cops are just awaiting the opportunity To obtain warrant to search our house once more Yet doesn't bother you at all If so you'd minimize risk Not use grow light to illuminate And litter public street and ditch And in the aftermath of these awful actions Don't apologize for mistakes Enough is enough Party is over Only so much we can take It's your moment to float along to different shores A destination new Feeling physically ill every visit Welcome is outworn-please shoo! Half of me honestly fully fed up Other side weakened by sympathy I fear if I continue to endure treatment You will simply walk all over me And when finally you do move on Left with an unholy mess Which will cause a meltdown Imploding from distress So I kindly ask you hit the road Commence process at once Should have evicted weeks ago That's not what any of us really want I hope you don't interpret as declaration of war You've become used to this "paradise" Wouldn't have minded you staying here If you kept it looking nice But your indiscreet disregard for our disapproval Has us craving distance badly For our sanity's sake You're too selfish sadly This doesn't mean we don't like you Loathe the position we're in Wish we also could embrace the anarchy Our essence is lacking the echoes within If there was compromise to be discovered Wouldn't plead for you to leave Our standards are so drastically different Insists harmony impossible to achieve We often have people abuse our compassion Silence disrupted only when too much to bear After being disappointed over and over Of shadows we should be aware But within our core care more than we should Inner voice whispering "they'll have nowhere to go" If your intention was to carry on residing there You would have improvement instead of negligence to show We've idled for months while you should have cleaned up Take one step forward than two right back It's evident you won't come to your senses Perhaps we've cut you a bit too much slack Now forced to gather belongings Pick garbage up off the ground Don't want air to be cold between us Still don't mind you coming around I tried hard to be gentle To my heart I must remain true Only way to salvage my future home Is stop you before damage is too bad to undo

I think it is time I finally give up Many years I have tried Ugly habits plucked like weeds They just grow back inside Singing melodies to help sleep Never gets easier alone Bed feels colder every night Missing all peace I've ever known Demons play games inside head Bouncing around bonfire Laughing at my suffering Nerves wrapped in barbed wire The weight of past mistakes drag down Shoulders breaking under stress Searching for dream to salvage Cannot find it within the tangled mess

Salvage
I dream of a day!, everyday, I don't know who far the day is, but i dream of that day everyday. The day where the lone shadow that lays behind me no longer lies aloof. The day where my voice no longer echoes through the hollow walls. The day where the song of my heart is heard. The day where my words finally make sense. The day where i salvage my soul from the ruins of my past. The day where i finally find myself. I dream for that day!, Everyday. and i know that you too, dream of that Day.

Dream of a Wrecked Heart.
when a clump of lice afield with the prey was abruptly fired between her **** that this cantilever bucked yet would bone the cast upon her harvest moon only she made right turn bare

Autumn's Bear
A box of rusted feelings hides in the salvaged yard of my mind. Jagged sorrows and broken promises surround the dismembered machinery, forgotten and guarded. The old dog with his once beastly growl, no longer cares who leaves or stays. The dirt below, slowly pulling forming his final resting place. Shabby parts like tired looks rot under thunderstorms of powering weather. Torn threads like once relationships, patched and torn asunder The Stacks pile high, a top the years of mistakes The box slowly sinks heaving more and more heartbreaks

A salvage yard in my mind
Welcome to the informational age We're enjoy the world of technology Never felt this modern world could emerge Magical world with braveness and courage. Welcome to the social media age As everything we do is on page We live like birds in a cage It makes us falling into a rage. Welcome to the insane and madness age To make headlines,create a **** sweet savage Can't believe we're on this stage But we are still holding our grudge. Welcome to the sweetest scientific age Your reputation,you better manage Like passenger manage it, as your luggage Saving it, save safe from the salvage.

Have you ever seen a bird of prey Flying high above the sky so blue Even this heat that enduring the day Waiting to meet the bird of prey Up above little they known With no problem nor struggle as they flown Dancing like naked indians as i lay As i wait for the bird of prey Minutes gone by and he land beside me Helping me with my suffering Thinking it as a God wanting to feed me Save me bird of prey save me The bird move closer As my vision gone blunder Pain shook my skin and water surrounds my body Oh thank you for being death bird of prey

The Bird of prey
I ran through woods of shadows Tripped upon rocks and roots Stumbling, falling and back to my feet Through north, south and east To the quiet caves of lost souls I heard voices, footsteps behind me Around I turned, to thin air they vanished I turned to the west tunnel in full speed ahead But just before I got to the light at the tunnel's end A mighty fist struck me down the rocky ground I crawled in pains, the rocks I grabbed Yet in its claws of pains I'm trapped Ruthlessly it plugged out my eye ***** And crunched it like cheese ***** I felt it's claws on my neck as I screened for help To the point you kissed my lips And saved me from my nightmare

Full Speed Ahead
It's happened on your last watch. In a lonesome salvage yard, she - who was raised by machines - like an electric shadow on a hopeless, desolate street in Berlin, was risen by the taste of your swallowed tears as bitter as gall, the music of your careless heartbeats singing its own song of rust, exhaling radiowaves for picture and thus bring you into life again by reshaping the man - from the sounds of wind chimes and piano accords - who you were more than half a life ago.

Singing The Song Of Rust
I admire you where sunny climes made my final leg more than before our place to wager with isosceles unwritten to really improve our vacation that never forbidden in pleasure and so much tantamount risen upon sands where you may philander though concentric in flight without any interruption to fornicate bliss but in our retirement went thoughtless in our fortunes to become these timeless tracks in ventures with uncontrollable polarity that dance in utmost knowledge evermore.

This Sunniness
Tell me a tale Those that you bear from distances Those that you covered with your feet Those that you ran with against the wind Those that you swam with ripples in oceans and seas Those that you got out from that nomadic women's eyes, deep Those you wept with in your dark nights Those that stitched your heart back, glueing it back to its place Those that take you back to the greener pastures and yellow meadows Those which are rusty, covered in the dirt of that high trek you took Those that I might have heard, recite them to me again Tell me a tale Help me put together my pieces, pull me out of my salvage.

Tell me a tale.
I catch a glimpse of my / utopia in your scintillating eyes / I sense peace in your touch / and hear salvage in the beating of your heart under my ear / perhaps I am too idealistic about the perhaps of us although / I have nothing but sour memories and / skeletons in my overflowing bedroom closet / I cling to the possibility there is / some decent people out there / I have brought proper weapons to this war / my heart has back up this time / I refuse to be hurt anymore
