#singular
can’t know enough to judge can’t care enough to tear down just living my life without or without you around can’t compare you to them can’t over share about my dread just laying my feelings out don’t want to sink just have to swim there’s nothing keeping me afloat i paint in crimson and tears i understand healing isn’t linear i am outgrowing adolescent fears i understand growth isn’t singular

Crimson & Tears
In a tectonic motion Mountains have formed Ridges deepened In the blink of an eye In the breadth of a gasp I recognize myself Asking why they assume That we find who we are Within the singular grasp Of a mere single soul For I feed a thousand of them And they feed themselves alone Your so-called meditation Must be taken elsewhere You must see that it was Never yours to begin Watch the rearview mirror As it enquires the wisdom I am but a multiple Left merrily unresolved

Why Am I For? (2020)
I don't know your story, I've never read a paragraph of you life.. I'll not lie I don't know when your life became a doodle circling around despair. But I've been through things you've never wrote about. But I'm still here. Don't think that a page will never turn, that a paragraph became a sentence then a singular word END.... I cant hold you I've never even met you. But if I just listen to your voice its cutting me inside. but I'm here for you, a voice shining in the dark places where your own voice had deafened you. We can talk for as long as you want. please insert coins in.. this call will end in 6. 5. 4. 3.2.1..... Then your gone.. But I redial and I hear the tears circle the phone cord, tightly grasping around your vocal cords. I'm here for you, ill stay till the silence isn't so profound when your voice inside isn't so loud. Just sleep on it after weve talked. No your not alone, after I'm gone talk to a friend, realise that they'll be a brick in the wall to hold you up, not to crumble. Remember that I'm hear, now lets just talk.

Dont Do It, There's Always A Tomorrow
One life, one wife, One love, One Love. Why one, Why one, Why one, Why One?       My Frustration is only matched By my desire to be the One. I am a contradiction to be watched          a liar who wants to run. from: commitme                    nt.

Why One?
Every face is a story Etched into the air we breathe /           And these journeys Lead us to paper lives of survival’s manifest, Where solid colours refuse to exist - And black and white enmesh To cloud the streams of speech We use to guide us to The non-existent chapter Of complete understanding /           Leaving fingerprints That overlap over others Until an artwork is forced /out/ of our ghostly presence, Always to be remembered By all we’ve touched - Long after memory has lost itself... In the streets of brains Trying their best to rest after they have successfully /etched/ themselves into the fabric Of spinning time and a gravitational pull           -Irresistible- Breathing out one last patch To add to humanity’s short stretch, To feel the very essence Of reality within them Before returning to the beginning / Every face is a story

trying to breathe in your image
We were on an occupation of             relative discerning, crossing every bridge of                             relative conviction. But the rights of a singular formation,                doesn't hold the morality of a solitary standing.             The glass was half full on our side,                                                   never spilling. But on that side every motion,                     sided with the tears    that eroded the path before us.    Could our convulsions be stained. But we were stead fast,                  walking forth.              Here comes our shame,              here is the shame of our noose              of ignorance. That a half empty cup of emptiness had more meaning than ours                                               half filled. But we walked further than out tether.   And a cup half full, pulled a bridge down                          with a fortitude of conviction. "*Just because a cup seems mostly full,          the tears of a mostly half empty vessel   can hold more weight and pull any bridge                   of wrongness down in simple volume*"

Whether it is Half Full Or Empty
Happiness was always plural in my mind, there had to be a he, a she or they, but as time passed, I grew to learn that happiness is a singular ' I '.

We must envision the what's not the £$ signs... we have to pull all humanity into the link of every chain.. We must look the negative haves and know everyone is worth more than the have not's. We aren't worth more than any other. Each of us has our worth in a world of each other

SINGULAR SENSATION......
It was a segment of me joined but never really there. Having travelled on every footstep but it kept me anchored below. But all things must at a time become singular, it felt this time was now. Time had past and this anchor had become fainter, I felt weaker with its dispersal from self. But it wanted independence from a form feeling it was a servant not a part of the whole. Awaking in agony as if I had been lacerated to the core of myself, then I stood up and my companion had divided its  substance from me. But all was not as it should be for errors now seen. Constitution had been unravelled, without this coupling light had refracted its existence. And where form was once, now it was devolving into its basic form that of obscurity dispersing away. Silent screams echoed through, as shade made a depletion of actions. Never getting close to its needed attachment. Instead greeting extinction of form as they became wisps fading into oblivion. Those that coalesced and became as singular became as one. Knew the needing of a symbiotic joining. They were separated by consciousness but lived now as one. Inanimate and animate united in life. "Just because its beneath you never feel your higher,

What Was Beneath Yearned To Be Free
Keen little neons playfully jump around, colliding with her mind and she sits there, legs crossed, her ***** aroused, but it gets doused as the Wall Street pinstripe type walks by she utters a sigh, looks at the sky, the ending's nigh, and it's night. Skyline looks pretty beams and lighted apartment block kitchens and real pop-up ads, them keen little neons, her eyes flicker like those hanging lights in horror films, perpetuate fear, the skeletons are in the clear. I told you, you schmuck, the end is near.
