I asked the heaven of stars
What I should give my love—
It answered me with silence,
Silence above.

I asked the darkened sea
Down where the fishers go—
It answered me with silence,
Silence below.

Oh, I could give him weeping,
Or I could give him song—
But how can I give silence,
My whole life long?

What are these scars worth?
These dark purple lines.

Can I show you them,
And be an inspiration?

Can I cover them,
And be a coward?

What if I darken them?
Will that make me insane?

Oh and if I cross bridges,
Instead of going up stream,
That makes me a fake.
A liar.
An attention *****.
An emo.
A weakling.

Well look at you.
You must be very strong.
Very impossibly strong.
Or maybe you just weren't caught in a battle,
Because your blown up head couldn't make it out of the castle.

Take it slow
The wheels turn
As the shotgun barrel burns
Society loses concern
For the ones who died yesterday
There's more dying today
Hope shrivels and withers away
Joy and Justice have descended away
Somewhere some place some how some way
My pen bleeds the blood
Of the victims slain in the mud
My words hold a grudge
So my views will not budge
,The majority lies in a secret sorority
Notorious for the notions against life
A hell bent flight with no oxygen light
This page is the white light
The ink shoots through the tunnel
My thoughts conspire in a huddle
Dive through hoops
Jumping over hurdles
Tho I try to take it slow and move like the turtle

little one,
with your smile so bright and grand,
never let anyone make you feel
like less than you are
you are greater than
the greatest
but you are only this way
if you believe so.

and i know you're bad
with change
because i've lived to see
what it can do to you.

your eyes are unique
for they see things
many cannot.
never let one's thoughts
ruin your vision
of this world
and what it can become.

you'll find that the beauty you once knew
will turn to disaster.
but you will
also find,
in disaster,
beauty.
