#satisfy
I gave you all my overflow but you said it wasn’t enough. So, I gave you more pieces of me but to you, it still wasn’t enough. Then, I gave you half of me but still, it wasn’t enough. So, I gave you everything, everything, and all of me and yet, it still wasn’t enough. Now, I have nothing left to give, nothing left even for myself But still you claim, I didn’t give you enough.

INSATIABLE
and now i’m drenched in desire. feral and writhing at the hand that feeds me and everyone always feeds me. there’s no use in waiting or wading in the grass yet, i still feel the blades upon my back every drop of wet wet dew caresses me and the breeze shimmers me tauntingly. now, i twist and contort at the touch of something new and it rises up in me, this new longing, this new pining. won’t you satisfy me? won’t you give me what i deserve? and i know that i will see you again under the shade of the night covered in sticky sweat and love’s delight. and until then, nothing else will satisfy me. nothing can compare. and soon, so soon, you will own my flesh and you’ll have me, rare.

the body pines
Taking all of my hunger In the palm of my hand I carry it with me From the sea to the sand . I curl every finger To a fist in my gut Feeding it anger and Sadness and glut . The more that I fed her The more Hunger grew Seeking and wanting Far more than I knew . The bigger she got The more her bite stung Until all left of me Was teeth, blood and tongue . And all that I ate Turned right to dust I desired no food But wanted to lust . I wanted to crave I sought to suffer Because that state was easy But living was rougher

Hunger
When life is out of order and things just don't make sense When I'm left out in the dark and the cold and I'm in suspense Everywhere I turn I am closed in by walls on every side There is nowhere I can run and nowhere I can hide If life was a car, I'd be careening out of control If life was a gamble, I'd have one foot in the hole When my life is chaos and disorder Of sanity and insanity, I'm hanging on the border I would be lost if I didn't know who was in command I would be lost if I didn't recognize the good that He had planned So, Jesus, take the wheel and turn this car around Take my feet and place them back on solid ground I know I should trust you: this has happened before But doubt creeps in and I hold back, afraid once more I like feeling like I'm in control even though I'm not It terrifies me that, for certain things, I have blind spots I want to channel this love inside, but I go about it all wrong It leaves me feeling emptier, it never satisfies for long I won't find the answer where I've been looking until now I'll only find the answer when I finally allow You to take control over me entirely To give you all I am and have and ask you to take over To fill me with the joy, the passion, the pleasure Help me live a life in purity and truth Until the day you say here is the one I made for you Jesus, command my thoughts, conform my will Satisfy me daily so I can have my fill Take me past my blindness so I can more clearly see How perfect your plan and how great your love for me When I give up my control and truly surrender I am freed from the grip of that wily pretender I call upon your grace and strength as I struggle day by day To walk with you in faithfulness and let you lead the way

Shades of yellow cast on our dreams Skin burning through layers of sunscreen When gifts of foresight weigh on our beings Let great powers grow evermore carefree To satisfy eternity. Empirical evidence against the empire’s truth Makes humankind akin to a neurotic fool Who comes to think that it’ll always nullify Oh for we all must die! Young and old both playing their games Seduced by the baits of short-term gains Unable to afford the bail out of prison Wait for great powers to relieve this addiction To satisfy eternity. Spawns of decadence in the wake of our new tools Let us deter suicide with the poisons that soothe They all say everything will fall, to act seems futile Oh for we all shall die! Whether in shame or in desire Must we forget all we’ve acquired For yesterday’s pride, tomorrow’s glory Shake hands with friends and slain the enemy To satisfy eternity.

Unsatisfied
You'd think I'd have more to say 2 years and I still find a way To bite my tongue and still feel numb But yet, I've become a pawn. I stuck myself to your word Like a struggling flightless bird And I make excuses for all my muses But maybe, I've broken a mirror. Maybe I've truly been cursed Then wouldn't it be worse? You've clung to me while I've tried to flee But I feel nothing but regret. You've always callsd me a nuisance And I still choke on your nooses Constantly on edge while you're by the ledge But you're living in your own shadow...

suit our need
Beauty, i've realized, is not confined to one singular moment Nor one singular place. Not one precious moment in time but perhaps a web of them. It's intrinsic to nature. Confounded through and possibly limited by the dullness of people. We need too much. We desire emptily. We set definitions leaving little space for the outlier. But beauty, in its purest form, is the outlier--a great composition of them. For what we set our eyes forth to blatantly, routinely, and  mundanely is often the most beautiful, masked by our innate desire for novelty.

Linger
Living a life When the voices in your head are a little louder than your own No one knows The things you have tell yourself everyday Staying strong Because you are expected to "Don't be a disappointment" Because it makes people upset "Fake it till you make it, it works." She told me And all I felt was sadness Because it dawned on me That everyone lives in fear Of being the 'let-down' And we all stopped caring For ourselves Because 'we' Are used To always Satisfy Another

Satisfaction
Would you like it if I cried? Would that make it more real to you? Would you like it if I died? Would that make my feelings true? Would you make me go and hide? Would that finally impress you? Would you eat up all my pride? Would that satisfy you? That's how you'd like it. That's how you'd like it, isn't it? That's how I'd like it.

Hungry world
You don't care, So **** you to. Life's never fair Or nearly ever through. I burnt like a ***** At the stake a witch, Heretic, non conformist, On a penny you switched. I was cinders Amidst the timber, Never could fit So to the rest thought **** it. Pour the fuel It's raining from buckets, Abrasion, the friction makes it hot, Sparks & burns the ******* lot. I'm chaos, worth more than the Pay off, A taste of fury to satiate your thirst, Once a lick and forever you'll be cursed. Kiss Kiss ~ Leave my lips pursed, Hands on my hips You find Apathy dispersed.

Collisions Conflict
I am the man I am today, From all the experience I've gained The lies I made, the cards I played Watch it all burn around an Ace of Spades And as I fumble with the match, My life like flashbacks flashes past The days I cried, the days I died Clawing, tearing my insides I, know that I can't run and hide, Knowing that, even if i tried Nothing will be better when I take a peek Because it's all uncertain, and all left to me And I, am not satisfied With the anger we feel and the rage we defy Why, is it so hard to see That we're caught in a landslide, an avalanche of debris Some days, I lay on the ground And stretch my hands up without making a sound Reach for the sky, but there's no prize All hope is lost and I've lost all my pride Insane, is the only way That normality fades, and only you change You've got more control, as we rise and we fall Being crazy is the only way to stay sane... I, know that I can't run and hide, Knowing that, even if i tried Nothing will be better when I take a peek Because it's all uncertain, and all left to me And I, am not satisfied With the anger we feel and the rage we defy Why, is it so hard to see That we're caught in a landslide, an avalanche of debris

Cluttered and Crashing Down
There is a hunger I can't quench, An addiction I can't subside. An itch that burns under my skin And I've tried scratching it. I've tried. I want that pretty silver tongue To match pretty porcelain hands Hovering over ink wells And candle stands But I can't have that. I can't salvage From the depths of my mind A poem to wrap around words like "Gossamer", "Murmurous", "Erstwhile". Art is a circle But I am a line with crumbling architecture, My thoughts linear and grit; My prose stuffed with an hour-long process Of charm and wit. I write these words to feed you; Please you; Fill you with the sense of understanding That I can't come to. My art is a lie with a rainbow And I stand smiling in an empty room, A vacant audience in a ghost of a show. I write because I need you. I write because I want to dance for you. I write because I want to seem wise. But all that it amounts to Is a high that always dies And a candle that burns out Far too quickly. This is not a cry. This is not goodbye. This is me. And I hope, for me, That this is enough to satisfy.

A Need to Satisfy
Complimenting a succubus, may not go as planned, For every line you feed a ***** she will want several more. Words are fuel for her fire, keep it burning, her desire. More, and more, and more it takes, To satisfy, to satiate. Give me some ******* more, And I'll be your little *****

You make me feel like the Queen of Fools… Gifting me all these precious jewels I don’t know if your intentions are crystal and your heart is gold Still; you gift me all these precious jewels Leaving me to feel like the Queen of Fools. because even the most precious jewels can not satisfy me. For what I truly desire are your intentions to be of crystal and a heart of gold. However it seems to be that; I am the Queen of Fools, surrounded by all these worthless jewels. As it seems; the most worthless of them all has become you to me

Worthless Fools
And the old ways are not satisfactory enough, You feel like wanting to marry a petite girl. A beautiful girl she should be who gives you a feeling pleasurable, You start dreaming of her imparting satisfaction immeasurable, Imagine her digging nails into your back as deeper you seep. Not away from marriage you keep your desires ever, And the imagination takes the better of your youth, The volcano accumulates lava & erupts blissfully.
