Night is when everything catchs me.
The worry the anxiety the fear.
That loud voice in my head, which begs Me to make it stop hurting.
Trying to heal each wound one by one.
I hate the night because that's when my terror begins.

If you wanted the sun
I would bring it to you
with burnt hands

Some one once told me
to love others, I must first love myself
Somthing I could never do

Nonsense, I could never love this mess that I call myself

but your smile
your voice
your warmth

so comforting.
so beautiful

sometimes I'm able to forget what hating myself feels like
when I'm in your arms.

i locked Pandora

in her box, with

the birds she

said i was for.

i sat on it like

Rodin's: Thinker.

eventually i opened

the box and let her

and the birds out.

the box having nothing

more to unleash, was

left to its empty dimensions.

I said no to drugs once.
I looked a bag of **** right in the face
and, like a loving but firm father,
I said, "No."
I was really high.

Lightness touched darkness.
Haunting melodic echoes
danced off painted sky.

The Sun is fading,
the moon is shinning
I'm  still wondering
are you looking?
or I'm just missin'
The wind is whispering
telling you're there standing
and still waiting

nothing hurts me
like your pain

I stare through a plane of distortion
as a calm anxiety engulfs me,
numbing every sensation
until everything else is a blank nothing.

It hurts to know that I once shone,
emitting a harsh radiance, like the sun.
they used to avert their fragile corneas
from my invasive rays but now...

I am a blank nothing.
