Life's hard when you have no one
To talk to
No one
To rely on

Your mother does not believe in you
No one supports you
Your family members constantly underestimate
What you are capable of doing and whats not
You are literally in a negative circle
Proximately in the ring

And friends are the ones who are
Always there for you
Through ups and down
Through thick and thin

But it comes to realization that
Friends don't stick long enough
Friends do come and go
And the word 'forever' is often misused
Until it loses it's own meaning
No one believes in forever now
No such thing as eternal love
Cause that's all *******

And all that left is You
You are always there for me
When they's no one
You watch me grow
You listen to every inexplicable words inside of me
Because You know better
Than the rest.

So, thank You.

They danced the bow,
an ole' burning skiff;
never taking his hands from her helm.
Did he even blink?
Blinded by the heat of her omnipotence.
He tried to discern her face proximately;
the impermeable remnants of
the flame impaired his vision .
Frère Charles couldn’t distill an elixir strong enough
to manipulate his compass’s rationale.
The ripest grapes, the deepest roots,
her herbaceous lips; his soulless old boots
laced with diffidence.
A despondent moon, a tear,
the asymmetry in her shadow.
She, whom he blindly confided in,
is painting a landscape of a fairytale.
The lily’s blossom eternally,
the dirt taste like chocolate,  
her oceans motions
propagate love.  
When?
He’ll never know.
His imagination undulates in wildflowers,
while she swims inauspiciously
in stormy seas.
Inevitably, a slave to the wave,
he thank her forest for the oak he step.
The old oak is opinionated,
and charred.  
Heedless it seem,
full mast against the wind;
somewhere their currents will convene.
A confluence relentless and unyielding;
even Moses ponder.

My fists are clenched
held to my chest
  unending fear
   proximately near
    to the space containing my breath

My knuckles white
my skin drawn tight
  the veins they pop
   composure stops
    the tears roll further in the night

A spot on the wall
to give it my all
  the hole is wide
   just like inside
    the rift in my chest filled with gall

The moment gone
the distance long
  time passes quick
   my eyes are tricked
    what I once thought truth is now wrong

You are the key
come set me free
  uncage my wings
   my heart may sing
    the song it sang when you met me

The lights are dark
without the spark
  of embers alive
   nor hearts to thrive
    no more dreams for us to embark.

My Fists Are Clenched.
whenever anguished i always notice my fists are closed in on themselves and clenched tight, and squeezing them harder makes the pain go away

— The End —
