"Crab-Handed "
The sad part is that most of us, writers, / are almost ashamed to say it out loud. / We do it like a bad habit we can't escape.

Made an ocean before a drop / Of water dried-up before it's mopped / A shoot before the backdrop

You Are Scum
You have your hands around her neck yet she's not afraid. She's so love struck she doesn't feel your grip getting tighter. She gasps for air but you're giving her "love" so she doesn't care. You hold her tightly behind your back not letting anyone see that she's your back up, your plan B. Her delicate hands Trimble and you don't care because the power you posses over her is too addictive for you to let go of. Your evil deceiving words assuring love and protection melt her heart, but your promises never fulfilled. Twisting her words making HER the one at fault for all of your screw ups and misconceptions. Her heart longs to be accepted, to be "good enough" for you. When she is a sweet daisy trying to grow through rocks and thistles, you are but scum on a gym shower room floor. You will NEVER deserve this flower, this gem, that you think you have control over. One day this princess will become a queen, fight for what she wants and what she deserves.

Trying is just another thing to keep me down / Smiling is just stretching my engraved frown / I saw the world around me up to a standard

**was because I knew you didn't love me.** / [& somewhere in my heart, a voice said: / *"ah, finally, someone who sees you as the worthless scum you truly are."*]

“A Radical Desire Consumed Us.”
We put gas in our tanks and pretend / all our claws are clean and pick at the bones / and the guts and we’re not satiated.

Scummy Ghost.
He gazed at a picture of a child he forgot was ever a part of him, but now that he was no longer alive a memory was an easy task. He stood in front of his former self lacking an answer of whether he was even alive then. His conclusion was a phantom that never showed itself in the light of day, he was absolute scum.

I don't need you
It's 3:05PM and as I sit outside in the warm sun, the sounds of a vacuum off in the distance and maybe a few cars that pass by, it dawns upon me: I don't need you. You don't control me. Whatever hold you had on me is gone, and I have come out the other side victorious and better for it. / Have a nice life, asshole.

The End
Feeling like the scum of the Earth, at the bottom of the gutters. Only me and these tireless feelings of regret and sadness. Only me and my death. / Let's only hope for this so called resurrection, otherwise this is the end of me.

In moments we suffer we’re like sweet dispositions / To cry in silence and shiver in pain / It all gets too much and we’ll just implode

Sunglasses
Your angelic words wrapped with demonic intent / Wont reach me from all the way up there / Your pedestal is too high, I'm afraid I can't hear a word you say

Daily misery
Like scum on sewer, / Dark news floats on the page; / Sick, nauseating!
