you were a part
of the darkest time in my life

a double agent
too liberated

do you still like to hurt?
its the only way to stop yours
Or so thought

Tyler Nov 2021
answers within me say
because we were who we wanted to be
before we remembered who we once
were

we are still all we have seen,
But more.

this wound runs even deeper
than i can recall
and
i remember what i did.

always pitting yourself
or using your position

against a lesser abled human

will always lead you to realizing you
are nothing
against a greater one

equality
will lead you to your greatest value

is it noble to hate who harmed
  whom love
i lay in wait
  to hear the judgements
i lay crippled
  in knowing their hate
i soar on
  the dark never controlled me

i still have the love within me

dearly departed
  a reincarnation of you

my furnace enflamed
  until it spread through the seams

my pheonix arose
  through my errant dreams
that at some times render nightmares.

my wings spred but
my heart froze,
my mind was blinded,
in wait for your touches
my limbo grew
drifting alone.

Tyler Nov 2021
there was a kid who was soured by life
but refused to let it sour him.
he succumbed and felt open anew of anothers pure sweet
in which
he sullied since
as at sweet's core he was soured
and he stayed that way for way more
than an hour
he knows his distance
and his own sweet heart he knows in his chest to visit
feels still more than pained
by an even more sinister'd soured visit
and it feels like black rock candy

pallet of color
Tyler Oct 2021
i mainly use blue
it is my #1.
my true natured ego.
i love using red.
it is my #2.
and while ultimately its color
rings just not as true,
i serve, my egos; it a pallet of colors.
many to see
many to look out for:
#73 pairs well with my #84
#7 i've seen only from long distance
#10 hates me dearly
#5 would make you weep sincerely
#18 you could look through clearly
#229 matches the wind blowing past the chimes
and #35 leaves me out of breath
these
oranges with blues
some have purplish tones too!
reddish green, mixed
in its hest i agreed.
a mix of them all,
swirling to keep my servitude
because these colors are i,
as much as they are them
honoring all makes
it all anything, but none


rainbow of this love,
how could one choose,
looking out for only #1
is a life ill continue choosing to lose
arbitary numbers

dark blue day
Tyler Oct 2021
who has befell me
has gifted me grief,
has caused my body to lie
in a needed slumber

what is missing
in my heart full of love ?
what has
filled my lungs
with desperate breathes
and made everything
a sloppy mess ?

how do i cleanse this ?
ive purified my ends,
means matter more i suppose.
I lack the love I once had.

when will I be me again ?
because I feel it.
the mirror suggests otherwise,
but i try to look past it.

the mud in my heart painfully
grows mold.

only at wit's end

soul granted/
the whitest peaks,
she, a mirage of hope

confidence
Tyler Oct 2021
I have the most unbridled confidence in my love for you I know I reach out only to return with nothing but closed doors, But I'm never dissapointed. I am stalwart. I know as long as I am alive I'd take your hand in hold if you'd have me. I have faith that I am your brother. Have faith that I can be a lighthouse. And that I am a light. I can never give up those that I'd be lost without; without them on this blue beautiful earth.
As I come back to *my* senses. I miss my bestfriend. The hurt i inflicted from the hurt bursting from my seams. Its all too real to me. I wish I could apologize correctly, but my words as well as i construct them is all hopeless, I couldn't find all of them. And I earnestly hope you can forgive me for that. Yet I feel free. Ive let it go, and I want the balloon to come back to me, maybe it just needs time to learn to fly. I love you, and you all for reading that may have. This breakup is slowly breaking me back to myself. I hope you're listening above all else

it passes like a train
Tyler Oct 2021
it all passes like a train
near a building amased
in sawdust,
glue, and boogers.
lethargic brakes screech
on the tracks
through cardboard windows
that shake walls of drywall
to crash
atop cracked glass.
it passed like a train
and i know it to be passed.
i'll lie down to find a home anew
on this track of my own.

the burdens of unknowing
that are hidden in closets bowtied
don't bother me
i never liked those gifts nor i loved getting them
but it loved giving them
because it knew how much it hurt
one day it'll understand its sting
i hope for its sake
standing tall
through weeks
i attempt to evolve
healing slowly

internal bleeding
Tyler Oct 2021
the licks you inflict
from the gun pointed in contradict
suddenly stick to, and its sick too,
that the violence of silence in sundered solace of which the trigger was shot to, and now in this constant, its the bullet that shocks, its the anger that he kills. helplessly instilled.

return to sender
Tyler Oct 2021
i have some eternal longing.
questions for nature
thankful for the hydra that is
a question.
there has to be no answer.
anguished traversal,
i am weary for this
  there is no release
   no relief.
    no ends to this mean.
besides the
     beyond and this line in between
  i question why i live
    yet the answer lives in death


~~ am i really a monster?
these arms sewn by sewer stunk sinue
  soaked by one's false sense of savant
these eyes flit to blue and brown,
from  
 pointed to round,
  ears stiffened yet drowned
  who hears strangers say hes the
   talk of the town
    all of it tends to incredulous noun .
   a seed of some doubt,
   covered in honey,
   placed as my heart.
   i only wish that i and it, drift apart
   because when i rest
   i try to take my legs off;
   one at a time, i hope it hurts
   rip off my face;
   as thin as it may be
   snap myself out of my craze;
   you know you cant dream
   lift the ball-chain of my soul;
   and place it on your chest
   and die to live some other day:
because you cant love to my own behest

i dont know if its good to try to do better; or only one's best

Tyler Oct 2021
i **** in my tears
stand there sinking them in my eyes
just so my skin can stay dry
through a canal built on my bones
its river rushes against its ramparts
lucious waterfalls into my organs
and out of my soul
but fills that well of some Old.
a Void never calls back

every other's yawn
would ellicit one of my own in return
i blush embarissingly
to share another's 'shame'
my craze, a harbor hoping it's a
                                   helping hand.
and atop a tall white spire the eye
      of some mind i think is mine
    gathers pieces of mindset puzzles.
at times, a
willing cohesion. same beast of mana.
   i hope it heals to share some burden.
    atleast the empathetical air
   tastes sweet to us modern mages

despise vanity
Tyler Oct 2021
i was always confident in my looks
never really enjoyed them but knew others did.
for when i do enjoy,
a sense of vanity fills
my stomach with disgust.
i would chisel at my perfections
make sure to wear those scars;
character of soul; tattoos of trauma.

after all, this is my face not my heart,
why try to reflect anything other then?
for those that can read one's heart
through their face, are of my highest regard.

but hey even after all that,
im still looking ****

i was the happy little boy
the one that smiled over his frowns,
just to show his face,
swore it'd light up a whole town.
knew it'd light up his favorite face.
but after under every smile , was
transient at best: anguish at worst
and when the world started to dull,
he didn't know that feeling was him slowly dying alongside you.

my magic words
Tyler Oct 2021
is it vain to retrain the brain; to refrain from blame through thoughts of when, and which, was yesterday's sane?

to retrace, my steps, although im minor, not for hire and one's worth not sweet; some his words first taste couldn't be drier.
(and i feel at times, adept).

sworn words that dont taste of scorn
sorrid horns i beautifully adorn
halo in the high-lows, it never did go
cracked virtuoso, china wears thin

so life's machine i take some heed
enough to see my wishes in tow
hope makes me see life in between
,the space of my words i can see  
magic intervenes

Tyler Oct 2021
i feel so skinny
  my arms weak from work of mind
     enfeebled and drained of blood

does little to dwell
  my heart tends to pitter patter
   oh well ive lost it ,onto another
        matter

              V.   rabbit's foot

eyes blink to lather.
   my feet; for to scatter
     wet white clumps ontop my matter,
         a camo to hide what matters.
      once undone does shun what
   shattered.
nature strung
  these strings
that now tatter.
  pitter patter pitter patter
  skitter tatter skitter tatter
raindrops; i cant stop: food to gather.
safe in day, safe in snow, safe behaved
  discipline bleeds medicine on my
      modern day
  ive done my deeds of the day
to retreat to relief
tinged with tomorrow.

amidst this marsh
Tyler Oct 2021
the song of nature's brilliant notes

leaves brush off their nearest friend
and scrape to each beat of the tree's heart

the birds call to their be-loved
across mirror edged pond that
one bad step would shatter to an infinite well clearly seen as the night sky on this canvas of water
duck gandolas traverse its scape heeding the way for the pack behind
bravely spreading the heavens within their wake

yet the bugs, how they produce sound so freely
serene strings relay a contingence of something familiar
a home of nightlights strung by wings flittering, generating the fire inside for
not only themselves but I.
i hear their tongue again

but it costs as little to all to listen
