i'll tile the ladders
and build the scales
all for you
my sweet Jacob !
candy constellates
and cherry terrors,
liquorice anastasis
and
all her perveyors.

I cried today,
God has taken
another life
into his mysterious
glory.
Tyler Feb 2023
Please, mind my drive,
I'd rather realize a thought than the road.
Off-beaten paths
Even over every pothole
Wherever the steed would stake me
A limitless travel

Say, when will our cars also be boats ?

reasons for a relationship
sharing the shame
love
Tyler Nov 2021
She would bark at me when wanting love.
I would come close she would run away.
the nature of us all, sometimes she'd try biting me.
Fight or flight, i looked to calm, yet no way around another's fear
(the opposite of love)
but maybe through it?
I figured to bond, she saw what I saw as her potential,
She fought for the attention that was accepted from another (that acceptance key to a heaven indeed). Attacking her brother, her eyes said, "was i right ? was i wrong? Should i try another?".
Trying to show you its acceptable to be on her level.
"Sure ill come" i said with poised humility,
Because i still loved you the same, always as equals. again
Id come, youd run, id throw you a bone,
I had loved to see you as you had grown, love not lacked, brought it back(look she knew how to do that!), pride's layers overlapped of every sense of touch, god I loved that, as I pet your hair back.
Never expressed how much i was impressed,
But still then after, id love in my way to show you it made my day, you would run.
you wanted to still be in my focus, for i think it made you stronger, you were the enemy, reflected that hurt me as I'd hurt another.
i had made a vow to never try to harm another.
Our possible deeds natured in weeds. Possible age of love to still be seen. And when you fought me itd hurt me, and id leave in defeat; you, barking behind me. And maybe one day you wont see me the monster you see me. Maybe one day we could love so freely. But for now it seems we both are on matural's leave.
I just wish i could communicate for you to comprehend, and im sorry my heart feels too heavy for anything to rend.
Tyler Aug 2023
I keep trying to let go of my ego
but it keeps holding me back
I wonder if she'd go
if it didn't happen like that

It seems we can't escape it
my mind is here for the time being
it seems we'll never sedate it
ill just listen to my heart beating

leave me alone
or leave me in company
either way nothing will be
solved, I couldn't even tell
where I should even be involved

Place me where I may
place me where I should
Place me where it's best
Where I'd be better misunderstood

Why does it even matter?
Just keep me in the throes
of this weird life
and hope I do good
along the way.
Tyler May 2022
you are love to me,
and love is every single thing in this existense.
seriously not unlike to God.
letting go of you.
is letting go of love.
letting go of everything.

it is an extremely difficult thing.
it all, not unlike to death.

yet,
the need of, and the life is there after, it.
not unlike to heaven.
the beauty there, it is awe incarnate.
a land where life and love, they
live after death.
every day,
all in the every single right way.
in the grandest possibility imaginable.

aswell,
love is my nothing.
as everything would entail this,
this nothing.
what comes of it?
but, everything?

Love,
it is eternal.
sleep, it is my nothing.
everything, it is my day.

the nightmares,
you must awake.
I pray there is happiness in your hearts

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 Apr 2022
i just couldn't even imagine
        a world without you
              in it
Tyler Nov 2022
whether she was in
the center of the photos
or the focus of my camera
i knew my
love had
a precise
nature
in which
was captured
in its rapture.
Tyler Apr 2022
I GOT EXACTLY WHAT I WANTED FROM
THE PANDEMIC.
ISOLATION,
THE MISERY,
SUFERING,
I KNEW WOULD GROW
ME INTO A GREATER MAN.
TO LEAD THE ONES WHO COULD NOT STEP TO. FOR I LOVED THEM MORE THAN MYSELF. FOR THEY ARE ME AS MUCH AS I THEM.

I CAPTURED AND TOOK
ADVANTAGE OF THE OPPURTUNITY.
FROM IT, I HOPE
I AM GIFTED PROSPERITY AS
WELL AS THE LOVE I HAD ALREADY GAINED FROM IT.
THE LOVE I WANTED, I GOT, FROM MYSELF.
POSSIBLY FROM WHAT GOD GAVE ME.
GROWING PAST THOSE BARRIERS
GROWS PAST THE ARROGANT
AND THE UNKNOWING IGNORANT.


I KNOW I AM WORTHY OF THE LOVE
BECAUSE I WOULD GIVE AS
MUCH AS I CAN OR COULD AWAY TO SOMEONE IN NEED.
I KNOW ANYONE IS WORTHY OF THE LOVE, AS I AM.

YOU ARE THE MILITANT ALL-KNOWING JUDGE OF GOOD AND EVIL?
DID YOU EAT THE FORBIDDEN FRUIT THAT TOLD YOU SUCH?
I GUESS IT TRUELY IS OUR ORIGINAL SIN FOR A REASON.

THE DEVIL LURKS IN OUR SOCIETAL CONSTRUCTION.
QUESTION EVERYTHING.
even he could possibly be forgiven one day.
if time were unlimited, i only hope.
Tyler Jul 2023
there's a million different people we can be.
i only desire to be the one closest to who you are.

The pen is an instrument.
Like I am an instrument to
  rhythm.
Therefore my instruments
are rhythm's.                        I don't even
Therefore the pen is            feel like I'm
rhythm writing.                   the one
Everyone that's with my    writing
heart, watch as pen slides  these
to rhythm.                            writings.
I wish for no credit to
myself,
        rather the rhythm.
       The music of movement inspires me.

God speaks through the dance
of life.

DEATH WISH WITH

Tyler Apr 2023
read my poems upon death
and that's where I'll be.
searching for light
through
sanctifiying flames.
and just when I'm going,
I'll be guided by my mother's
merciful grace.
the sorrow and compassion
shall come of the accidents'
victims and perpetrators
in forgiveness.

respect for those that believe love
can only be all good.

i shall be a pillar
that you can lean on.
one that
may try to sell you something sweet.
Tyler Feb 2024
your name used
to rock me asleep.
slowly but surely,
id sleep so sweet.

this was a list of
lovers, each so
unique.
the list has been
lost, in time,
it did deplete.

to find my relief,
i dream; i glide.
a warm summer
sky above scattered
clouds so high,
I feel the wind
like an embrace;
effaced upon
the glory of
freedom's estate.

I could use
a true touch,
sure.
but i don't
want much of
anything
more.
ive been
gone enough
to not expect
anything- sure.
ive been alone
enough to survive
without its allure.
Tyler Dec 2021
i would take centuries to understand
the woman in you,
the woman in me.

would you take a day to understand the man in me?
the man in you?


the silence of it.


a torrental battle.
this highest casuality.


atleast the dead could rest.
i tire of these demands
from some one I can't
quite point to.

dark clouds and thunder

RANDOM MOMENTS
OF ENCOURAGEMENT
AND INSPIRATION
INVIGORATE MY SOUL
WITH THE POWER TO
PRESS ON TO SPREAD
MESSAGES OF GRACE
ONE CAN READ FOR
TIMES TO COME.

I WILL NEVER GIVE UP ON THESE VALUES. MY FAMILY IN HEART, THEY PUT ALL THEIR FAITH IN ME. I WON'T WASTE A SINGLE DROP ON THE ROAD TO MY SACRIFICIAL SACRAMENT.

BRING ON THE FLAMES OF REALITY.
THE SHAME. THE EVIL.
EVERY SINGLE DARK PART AND ITS CONSEQUENCE OF THE COST OF OUR IGNORANT HUMAN SOUL.
LIGHT SURELY WILL TRIUMPH.
I TAKE A LEAP INTO THE DANGER KNOWING FULL WELL IT MIGHT TAKE
EVERY.
*******.
THING.

I WILL GIVE EVERY LAST OUNCE
IN FAVOR OF THAT GOOD.
TRUSTING IT WILL PROVIDE
AMAZING THINGS.
Tyler Aug 2022
the power of being humble
always seems to forfeit my
control to some refractory
pulse that teaches me such
great yet subtle things.

the wind's grace,
the sound's space,
and the magnetic poles
that continually favor
a spiral-
drawing lines
in my sand.

be wary of your power.

A drug will work its way into your ego

An illusionist this virgo.

Toying with every string you attach yourself to.

Vile.

Pungent to puke.

For one it comforts.

For another,  cohort

i am so intimately weak
to your tender touch.

these veritas fingers
and sinner palms leak
the sensual stories that
slowly course
through her silk and lace.

that softer edge broken by
a delicately drenching kiss
starts the cataclysm
lovers surrender
their hearts to
in intimate loving trusts.

anger comes from ignorance.

waiting for word
from the Sun,
in a sentence of night,
which is so ruthless and told
who and what is so wrong
on this world we die on.

come down, oh, Sun.
So that I may feel your warm embrace,
so that I may enlighten the brighter reflective truth, I mirrored from your greatness, away from the dark family lies spread by self-righteous rotten eyes and ears. Holding on to modesty trying not to **** for the murdered cousin inside, all while I am painted but villian of night.

My vengeance will taste of kindness.

There's a lot of power in not doing what someone knows you are capable of.

I dreamt of you in lonely Mantua.
Outside my door as I had seen you once before.
Your aura slowly leaking through my home's walls filling the air in a loving daze- I stirred up in its steamy cloud.
Outside I went, outside I saw your smile. I thought you may have saw me shake like I was a beat mutt.
My gooey wound opened upon meeting your eyes- the love is stupidly perserverent.
Then as fast as you came,
without word, without embrace, slowly you set, oh Sun. With magnificent glory of death of day; a hot angry summer's day.
Down flights of stairs where you escaped the Moon's pull.


A dream come dead in Mantua.
Banished from the brightly sky's domain,
I light the night sky,
the nightly earth,
in turn- in steed to show those
in darkness of night there can still be light past these cyclical dying days.
Tyler Apr 2022
i dont love pain.
i love relief.
i hate inflicting harm.

Something poetic is needed in these lines,
Something poetic is needed in these lines.
The meaning is lost; it's misconstrued.

EVISCERATE THEIR HEARTS
SLAUGHTERING IN THE HATE
IN THE SILENCE THEY INVOKE,
**** THEM WITH SABBATIC SOUNDING KINDNESS
AS THEY CHOKE ON THEIR
OWN LYING WORDS.
Tyler Mar 2022
I appreciate everyone that sees my submissions. I am rather free form on these, and that can lead to weird tangential things that possibly could only speak to me, so I greatly love the community to even spend a second to look at something I write. To have a space in order to write what I want to for myself feels truely emansipating and liberating. I hope if any of the poetic part of my mind affects you here it is in a positive light even if written in darkest shade.
Love is truely the ultimate answer !
Tyler Apr 2023
The thoughts come out like
   a stream into my words. I don't mind them.
They mean whatever they do.
Whatever the semblance your eyes
come across.
           I'm yours in that way.
       I wish I could change
    that reality,
          but I have no desire
        to change what has already been beautifully
        made.
               I'll keep at it.
              Even if in there everyone would
                  darken my shine.   Just
          Like an unlit candle in
               a room of only shadow,
               we could find the use out of you -
                                                          but you
            won't turn the lights on for me, and
          I refuse to burn your wicker if
            that your case.
Tyler May 2022
open your mind
and you might
find people will
leave a little bit
of something behind-
charitable donations
or taxing baggage.

do you feel the weight of their crosses ?
do you have endless heart ?
some things can be worth the price
Tyler Jan 2024
I stood at the fountain
  where they said there was
  a wish per finger.
                 Keep your thoughts and
                  hands together,
I'm not exactly a pretty boy,
      but there are miracle men
who always seem to make it right.
a blown candle on a special night,
I become totally affixed on who
I'll love next.
   I need more shotguns,
some form of defense;
     my mind was weak to your
affliction, my mind was lost to
time. I'll miss you by about a day,
but by then I'd have forgotten if I
ever loved anyone else.
Tyler May 2022
I see her
I see him
I see them
I see you
I see us!

I see love,
I see grief.
I see God
(if only just a piece!).

I see happiness,
I see sadness,
a war inside
the trials don't replete!

I see loss,
I see gain,
harmonious
within no critique!

I always try to see the best,
to not shy from the worst,
introspection that is
extroverted,
and boy ain't it a relief!?

I see my mom,
I see my dad,
I see my brother,
I see my sister,
aunt, uncle, niece, nephew, cousin, son or daughter.
All these people I modeled myself
after to be !

I see Jesus,
I see inventors,
I see artists,
I see writers,
I see a tiger,
I see comic book heroes,
I see friends, and I see foes,
and that is the power
of equality!

Through the glass
reflecting these hearts
of the people and traits that
I wished to be,
but most of all,
and through it all,
I have seen me!

The question now is,
do you like what you see ?
who do you wish to be ?
Tyler Dec 2021
quite alone
a snowflake among snow.

quite cold
how the white glory depresses.

au contraire
to hearty hearthed home.

cold sunken soul,
brittle bits of frozen hair.

loneliness
in grandest unity.

hark,
the angels still sing:

still, neglect;
in this cold chafed face.
Tyler Oct 2023
I want to write evil poetry
Where you are the villian
but I can't

the love I've lost
(Make it your fault)

We could have been high school sweethearts
Marriage with all our loved ones

(Dancing in our suit and ties)
(Ya right)

I wish that could be true
But our time isn't right

Maybe you'll come back
In another life

I await you
(In earnest longitude)

You're the poem
I wish to express
to the whole wide world
in intimate hours

I'm in drunk celebration
Wondering if it could have
been us..

But probably not.
Maybe someone else-
a different story.
Tyler May 2022
IF IM THE CONSTANT PROBLEM,
WILL IT HELP YOU OVERCOME YOUR PERSONAL ONES?
Tyler Apr 2022
THE DEVIL IS IN THE DETAILS,
AND, BY GOD,
YOU WITHOLD AND SHARE ALL THE RIGHT ONES TO DEMONIZE ME.

DARE I DEFAME YOU AS YOU DID ME?
NO.
SACREDNESS IS ABOVE ALL.
YOU SHOULD BE ASHAMED.
AS I APOLOGIZED FOR EVERYTHING
AND IT SEEMS ANYTHING;
FOR SOME WERE NOT MERITTED,
THAT IS MY ISSUE.
PEDDLE THE BLAME, WHY NOT?

THERE IS NO APOLOGY I CAN TAKE THAT COULD ILLICIT MY FORGIVENESS OF YOUR TRANSGRESSIONS OF MY LOVE.
SO YOU BETTER GET RIGHT WITH YOUR GOD.
FOR THEY KNOW.

AND MY BROKEN HEART SCREAMS IN THE SILENCE OF TEXT
KNOWING THAT THIS IS BEYOND YOUR LONE FAULT.
Tyler May 2022
when you identify yourself
with someone
you gain the good, the bad,
and the ugly;
but it can be beautiful.
