The mind
Taykel Thatch Sep 2020
The mind
So strong yet so weak
Yet fragile all the same
Full of knowledge that we seek

We think and we feel
We grow and we learn
Teaching from one to another
For any satisfaction we can earn

What makes you tick?
What makes you feel best
Unspeakable things within your mind
Will it be judged by the rest

We’re full of desires
So many things we can’t do
We fight with our mind
Do we think it’s even true?

Angry
Taykel Thatch Jul 2020
I hate you
I do
I hate you
It’s true
There no one that I hate
As much as I hate you

Your existence is useless
I can’t find a reason
To try and help you?
Well wouldn’t that be treason

You’re weak and pathetic
You cry and you mope
No one will notice
You’ve run out of hope

Time is ticking
And your rage shall be free
The day that you snap
Is the day they see ME

I am your demon
I am your beast
I am your truth
All their laughing shall cease

My sadness
Taykel Thatch Jul 2020
Sad
Imprisoned by choice
Alone by fate
Lost in the darkness of my own hate

I see people’s smile
And it makes me think
What a world this must be
Gaining satisfaction from smoke or drink

People laugh with each other
Though I know it’s not real
I single myself out
Because I know how they feel

You’re nothing, you’re small
They whisper and sneak
I’ll stay all alone
If it means I’m not weak

Why do I bother?
To have friends and feel good
They just leave me anyway
I’ll be left standing, like a good friend should

A Kiss
Taykel Thatch Apr 2016
I look into your eyes.
I've become mesmerized
The mood brightens with a smile.
Shall i stay for awhile?

The world has stood still.
As if by our sheer will.
We lean together slow.
Happiness we know.

Before we seal.
Life becomes real.
I awake from the dream.
The early morning gleam.

Tis a dream i learn.
But my heart it did burn.
Some day it'll be true.
When our lips touch when I'm with you.

Her
Taykel Thatch Apr 2016
Her
Love me like i loved you.
My feelings were true.
Like the sun, no blue hue.
To be loved happiness to ensue

But no. You couldn't reflect the same.
No way I'd stay sane.
No sunshine through my window pane.
Wrong to trust. Am i another lame?

They said i should share.
And maybe someone would care.
No burden I'd have to bear.
Just bliss within your stare.

Why'd you walk away?
At my side I thought you'd stay.
But now nothing left to say.
Her life had ended... For it was I that did slay.

The Boy
Taykel Thatch Feb 2016
In pain he cried
Within the wind it died
No one could be seen
What could it really mean?

Lost in a storm
Why was he born?
Deceit ravaged him
A cup of blood filled to the brim

He didn't mean what he did
But he didn't see another way
Everyone criticized a lonely kid
So in darkness he would stay

All he needed was an ear
That would comfort his sorrow
But when would it appear?
Would he survive to tomorrow?

Ignorance is bliss
Taykel Thatch Jan 2016
Alone in the room.
Staring into the dark abyss.
Silence washing over.
I believe ignorance is bliss.

You hurt me before.
But your love I did miss.
Why'd you go away.
I believe ignorance is bliss.

The shadows tell me things.
As I peer through the mist.
It was destined to be.
I believe ignorance is bliss.

Will a new light arrive.
A save me with a kiss.
Break the spell within me.
I believe ignorance is bliss.

— The End —
