"suture" poems
I didn't write this one. Its actually part of spoken poetry lyrics .. im sharing it because I feel like start to finish I can relate to every word, every feeling. I consider myself the girl behind the mask The girl behind the mask doesnt understand the beauty, is in the eye of the beholder, and it doesnt matter how many times I have told her she still relies on the opinions of people of who dont realize that what they see as shy is in fact the feeling of lonley, The feeling of whatever she does Is not quite good enough, the feeling of constantly disappointing the people closest who only want to see her happy, But instead they have to watch the detoeratation and can do nothing.  They hope and pray that one day the girl behind the mask will finally say with content and honesty to herself "IM HAPPY " I can put these feelings of no self worth on the shelf and live on, build up my life and repair myself from the past,  And can finally say to myself that at last " IVE DONE IT" I've beat the demons inside my soul, the demons that made my thoughts and life cold, The ones that made me contemplate my life, my confidence,  my existence and my future,  made me feel hurt that cant be fixed with a suture, The girl behind the mask doesnt see that her strength shines so much brighter, you see the girl behind the mask doesnt know what she is capable of, it's as if how blind to how happy she makes everyone, she puts a smile on a face of the person feeling down, shes blind to the fact that she can turn a sad day around, and make people smile from ear to ear, But when she takes off the mask she's filled with nothing but fear,  fear of what the next day brings her, as if she's waiting for her sentence and there's nothing but rumours being spread around about her. The girl behind the masks is the definition of beauty , the meaning of strength, she needs to know thats its the duty, of everyone who cares to help in the fight, to make her realize that her life is her life, to understand that there is nothing to be afraid of, she has family and friends that will show  depression what they are made of, The girl behind the mask needs to lift her head up and open her eyes and realize  that she'll never be alone and as much as she may feel it, the pain she is feeling now.... happiness will heal it So be strong and proud of the person you are because with strength and power the end of these feeling isn't far, and you can smile,dance, and sing  live thr life that u were deprived from, the life you have not yet felt..  the life u lived contemplating overdose or the rope. The feeling of eating was hell, the life u lived where everything goes wrong you will be free from all the anxiety and pain Look at yourself in the mirror and  say these words to your self, "why  am I letting this control me, look at your beauty. As hard as it seems you need to smile.  Its your duty,  then see your pain as a emotional journey,  Remember certainly there is a destination waiting for u to be happy at last..  but please be strong stay strong the girl behind the mask

The Syrian process is a serial problem When the disenfranchised Cause a landslide Of historical hatred The key that ignites Business and commerce Wildfire hearts And boiling skin The harsh outbreak of deadly cholera The blockade of the forceful armada The coalition forces Run wild like horses The bombs keep falling The people cry The engine keeps stalling The car dies The white phosphorus Brought by the white prosperous Can burn to the bone And wounds can ignite up to three days later But the people of Raqqa Are used to reigniting scars They're used to searing flesh That melts like tar Where this will go No one knows how far Machines must be sustained Hearts will be untamed Lives constantly rearranged A human rights activist attempts to send a report What he's witnessed in Raqqa Injustices; perceived and objective But Hellfire Turns the Internet cafe Into a senseless violence display The dirt, blood, and bodies Mixed and spread like the art That was ignored to lead to this quagmire Whether this calamity started At the Melian dialogue Or a market diagram Or a martyr's diatribe What we need now is an m.d. to suture the wounds But who will save us? When noble protectors are blown up And the reigniting scars scorch the hands that heal

I searched for "truth" I found weakness Forever doubted theories compromise To hide their failure through fragile lies I searched for "justice" I found corruption The fairest laws defy morality And relativity fights equality I searched for "happiness" I found the source Jesus, my almighty savior I found You in the poor Help me love my neighbor The way You love me To keep this happiness Flowing inside me You stand by me Suture me with Your affection Understand me Lead the path to my redemption Helped me draw The masterpiece in me And withdraw The shackles off me Somehow, lost within Your stream I ended up finding "truth" Personal and general Strangely irrefutable The weak you redeemed Lowered the powerful Your perfect divine "justice" Defies my human logic, empirical yet so vulnerable ~Epic Monkey

"Seek and you shall find"
*I am sorry for all I caused you. I saw you sink in my eyes and I lost you. Thought it cost you, To see me breathe in broken souls, Never knew about the love I sold. I ripped up all the truths in my head, Wished me dead in a bed Where I bled, And the wind spoke. All the secrets that I had inside me Beat on the doors till they shattered and the lock broke, I always felt like a flower on a hillside, Mercy to the wind and you till I finally died. The sun set in my throat, It rained in my eyes, I had no where to go. I am sorry that my anger left stains on your skin. But you cut me with the lies you told, And you broke me with things that we never could have been. I sinned, Serpents sliding down my cheeks. When I speak, Its like the tide is in my mouth, The waves moving south until they're gone. We build up our bodies, Broken promises, And whispers we hear in our head. The foundation we've set is shaking, It can't handle us breaking, And can't handle us faking so tell the truth. I have never lied to you. But you took the love I gave and you threw it. I never knew how my half a heart craved your hand but now I do. You are like the greatest poison. Moving through my own veins with no noise and, My hands shake wothout my fix, But you can't fix me, Its true. I need you to stay here now, While I fly away, Leaving you standing on the ground, Don't frown, You never needed me, With concieded tragedy Trembling from your lips. And I know you can feel it, Can taste materiality when you kiss. My head is crashing, My body thrashing on the ground till its blue, I'm not saying that I want to leave, I'm just saying that you can't love me like I need. I know it might be hard But I'm looking so far And all I can see is my tears. How am I supposed to live this way? Waiting day by day For you to reveal all my fears. You know I hate my future, As much as I hate your present suture You're letting dive into your heart. I don't know how to start, In a world where you're my world But I'm not yours. I say that I will leave and close the door, Leave it a crack, So I can see your light in the dark, And find my way back. All I asked of you was your hand, Press it to my chest, I know you can. You make me resent all the words that I've said, Went through your ears, Passed by your brain and out your head. You said, You don't know how to help me, I'm not the titanic that's sinking, Just a person that's wishing, that someone had taught me to swim. I know you don't get me, Don't understand what my head thinks, Well darling that makes two.*

I feel like going back to those days, when I could feel and not fear it. When I didn't know the world's ways and I didn't yet need my fighting spirit. When I could simply have a romance, nothing complicated or categorized, that would come up by happenstance with no limits needing to be devised. I miss those days, I could awaken find another body next to mine, and not even be mistaken in thinking this won't be the only time. I miss those days with a passion, too often I feel like I'm crashin' straight through the mud and the dirt all the pain and the hurt. I render my poems inert, when I stare in the mirror, see myself crying and dying, insanity getting nearer. I one day hope to rise from it all, stand from the ash, proud and tall, but I know that after I do I'll eventually once again fall. I miss those days in more than a million ways. Watching my eyes glaze over thinking about days over again. I flow my heart into this pen put my soul into what I write now and then. I know I'll be that happy once more, I've got that joy kept in store, for a future when I suture this wounded pride and mind. I've got a stride in mind, for when I return. See the surprise in their faces, I bet they thought I would burn up in the anger like butane. I'm just too hard to contain and I walk through cold rain, thinking about once upon a time, through sweat and grime, You were mine, I was yours, now it's vice versa.

I Miss Those Days
Dear Lovely, my tormented fair-maiden I write thou in love, transparent and unhidden I know you seek answers that are hard to find searching this soul and this ****** heart of mine Seeking the signs of a lover's true intention while hanging on the lips of every word mentioned You look and you hunt through your longing to discover if I am your true belonging I know by the pause's in your words spoken that you're trying to avoid another heart broken I've been honest, dear Lovely, with every answer given and as you slowly say my name I begin to give in But these walls I create are for the protection of a heart once fooled with misguided direction Everything I do, I do for our future so you know difficulty inherent with this suture With caution I proceed, by no cause of yours But from past loves I've learned there are no do-overs I, with pounding heart, beg of thee, please understand that on this earth we can walk hand in hand But time heals all wounds, and these are freshly made I can love and never leave, dear Lovely,       once the scars begin to fade.

Cautioned Heart Crossing
Stepping on the corpses of all you've known trekking through the field of bones the sirens sing, green angels with broken wings like a desolate future, in need of suture I see a patina on everything, rustic brains you can always find some sign of life for there is always life within something rose still exist among the filth and **** there will always be beauty in the lies and in the truths that flow through our mouths

Throne Of Bones
He refuses to offer a piece of his heart 'Cause he can't trust it'll be kept unbroken He keeps his feelings belted smart Chances for new emotions left untouched and unspoken He offers his rut, fresh and mastered Decides it's the best and most he wants for now The heart that's growing a case on him is being plastered At the mere longing to exchange a loyalty vow There is hope he will change and offer more With no guarantee of his final choice for a future; There is hope, at the depth of a bruised heart still sore Longing to hold him close upon his merciful role as a suture.

……Now With springing force I was shot out into the future And with needle to the suture Sewed together what I could Lo, the spring sprung back into The autumn Found my porthole at the bottom Into all I understood Yet, An equal opposite reaction Fueled combustibly by action From believing things that I was told to read Found Me far beyond what I had seen Cross dystopian ravine Though in spite of any betterment, still brought to you by greed Now from safely at the station In the cold and condensation I can see with clearest vision The successes of my mission Here, within, the multitudinous expanse of tears and laughs Will be difficult to honor with a proper epitaph

Epitaph
Wandering under woodland leaves, my mind confined to winding suture lines. Paths of pink nerve tissue cherry blossom trees, dendrite branches wave in a heavy breeze. Myline bark, an axon stump, rooted contents of my skull continuously growing, a tangled plexus of neural connections. Twisting, turning, a knotted blockage. Pathways, rippled in roots, a crossing synaptic stoppage. A suffocating strangle, choking corpus callosum decaying mangle. Branches atrophy, shrivel and scar. Root terminals suffer hormonal harm. Forest trails quick fainting when lost in overthinking.

Overthinking
hands upon the door to the cell phone store I had an awful sore in my heart and core something I'm mad at before the phone shat something like **** that some cat spat so I rant at the gal even her pal and the guy Al who give's a hal? "The phone's inferior Where's your superior? I'll rip him a new interior! You're all about exterior." "Look at me when I speak. or are you too weak? Talking while you tweet Look at me when you speak" what's with this culture? digital gone vulture your phone like a suture trying to mend the future "Sorry if I got all hot. Diplomatic I am not. Had to rant and shout get the dysfunction out." "Your phone hurt my ear The speaker on too near. On this much I am clear Your phone hurt my ear."

Rapping a Rant
Lonely as a heart can be living a life that is not for me pondering what will be in the future so far only to be fixed with a suture Longing forever the woman for I There's no light visible in the sky where are you, my little spoon i will be right here, waiting on the moon

The Hidden Spoon
From a child's eyes To a child's heart. Impressions lasting First one's the start. Young and innocent Even more pure. The smile to a bad day Sometimes the cure. An empty vessel To fill and to mold. A respectable child Does as they're told. Taught right from wrong Morals are planted. Posture is straight Not crooked and slanted. Religion is introduced Traditions hallowed out. Expectations set No time to doubt. Captured over time In the parent's planned future. Trust earned and lost Disappointments need suture. What happens when that child No longer hears praise? Repeated in their head "This is not how you were raised." When conflict of interest And what's stood for changes. When a child's soul is not Resistant to the turning of ages. Product of their environment It's not just what's taught. It's every lie and hardship That they've ever bought. The bruises the tears For some the neglect. Do they become the examples We all forget?

The Forgotten Child
11/24/2017 Everybody says i dodged a bullet But the bullet landed As for the trigger, was it him or me that pulled it? I thought he helped my heart expand its hard to think i even could with Both feet braced on solid ground Our situationship wasnt planned I know its hard to understand From the outside its easy to brand me Can we analyze every time i noticed how masterfully he handled me? I understand that time is the only poultice But for a moment Id like to be candid please The bullet landed and it travelled It ripped a path through my flesh Day by day i ate less and less Let this be as many lessons As you can manage to pull from this The side pieces and the rest is all fluff and ******** He put strings on my heart and pulled it And i danced and said “how high” And my soul became dull it became harder and harder to wake up every day Is it ok to say the only redeeming quality is that he never struck me? But i wanted to escape the pain of being stuck he told me never, ever again to cut He didnt see that he was the reason i needed release The Mona Lisa was out of luck Finally the bullet festered The pain became so great And the benefits so much less The bullet ripped a path I cut it out and sealed it back Now the bullet is nothing but waste And i can find a new way to relate New tissue to create It takes talent to close, to suture they say “Approximate, dont strangulate” And now the bullet is disposed So they say i dodged a bullet But the bullet landed It ripped a path through my flesh Til i became so much less And the wound began to fester So i cut out the bullet and cleaned up the rest Now i have a scar to show the truth The bullet landed And i still choose Not to be bulletproof

I saw the saddest scene today, when a boy— now a year older— abandoned his bicycle because she was older. Enticed by lust, on his new bike he rode away, caught up in the moment—he didn’t mean to scold her— yet no second was spared to look back over his shoulder. I stopped watering my lawn, eyes where the bike lay, imagining the loneliness felt when he disowned her, and I felt emptier than a bike’s seat with no owner. Even inside my home, on my conscience it weighed because of their tryst, there was another knower. “He took her for a ride, and he didn’t even know her.” In my mind I console her, such idle words I say, for nobody’s pedaling foot would ever suit her until that pettler’s foot stopped blocking the suture. “I was like you recently, so for you I pray, though, the absence was open and lacked closure; hopefully, your steel frame employs better composure. “Nostalgia will make him pine for his yesterday, pictures’ll frame the story of love lost when he’s older. In time, loving hands will lift you up,” I told her.

Abandoned
In a slow oak and elm ING breath Ent felt tears in the air She inquired the feather like dancer From where a river now streamed Say, your sobbing must stop Just enjoy being unlocked You do not know tree pain With my long hard locks Knotted under the weight of usefulness for you are still yet a seed Riding the wind of dreams No rings yet formed on fingers rings to be broken for fires timber Your tendrils are bendable The beginning fragment of a future So show no pain and suture a smile I know capons who fell free from home Only for gravity to shatter dreams & reclaim them to the unknown. And the dandelion said: My short life comes with long memory While  my youth may seem naive to tree I have only arrived and I must die to be You will remain when I am reborn deity And as your locks begin to leaves And birds flock like river ocean streams I know pain because I remember birth I will die a thousand times before you know me Yet these tears should not offend I cry to womb the happiness within.

The Dandelion Deity (POV story/poetry)
Beneath the water lived a nymph, beautiful as A flower, if you like woman with petals Growing from out of their face And lips adorned with myriad metals Moving silently with infinite grace. Fishermen who caught her, in alarm Tossed her back with dismayed cries Fearful that she would do them harm When she exposed her fangs, darting from her eyes, Forked tongues from each palm. But apart from all that, she was a delightful creature As proud as a catwalk model Sexuality impressed into each feature Death in each cuddle, Poison injected from each freshly opening suture. At the sea’s dark bottom lived the nymph Devouring fish raw, terrifying sharks and barracuda, Dining on shellfish and prawns for lunch; Darting amongst Angel Fish and eels, a hungry aficionada, Tearing into shreds what she could not crunch. Gentle with her own kind until coition Was complete, when if hungry she devoured Her temporary mate without undue consideration, No please or thank you. Feeling duly empowered By her actions, as confirmed by her explosive, acrid indigestion. No longer young, her children dead, She glides through the water from China to France A preposterous seaweed hat upon her head And in several places, impaling her scaly flesh a serrated coral branch. Her sartorial taste filling even the sharks with fin-quaking dread. The last of the kind. The others are (literally) toast. Protected by animal charities here and abroad She gladly subsists on ambitious swimmers who venture far from the coast All she can now catch or afford. A capricious tyrant until the last, when, victim of a fisherman’s boast She was hoist up like iniquitous cod Out of the sea, paraded on the deck while she struggled for breath. Shot at. Abused. Poked and speared with a steel tipped rod, Dragged into the harbour, pummelled close to death. Screaming out, as she in unexpected agony died: “I thought, I truly thought, I was god!”

I would give you, almost anything, for the borders, to close. For our separate galaxies, to inch, and crawl, ever closer, winding and unwinding around each other, like the red thread of fate, rocking gently, on twin spools. I would give up, almost everything, for my lifeline, to unravel, if only... to retangle, around yours, in a closed, but infinite loop. I would give you my all, my everything For the distance, between us... to vanish. For the spaces around us, to suture themselves, together, and heal, like gaping wounds. For the sublime favor, of feeling you shine down, on me, in a way no other, could do. To see all your love, reflected, in your mirrored irises, and know that no one, stands before, or behind me. And I'd sell my own soul, without a second thought just to hear you say That I'm your one, your only love, and no other could ever do.

Him: *I'd like to request that we take a digital snapshot, not remember in black and white. Our keen insight developing symphonies Our harmonious future. I need a piece, I need the key to twist Turn this defeating suture.* Her: *It breaks my heart to see your disease. In my bones I wish to mend your seams I'd give you my lungs to let you breathe To you my love I send . . .But to me your soul is dead I'd rather be friends instead*

Conversing Conflict
And so resounds the echo... Sewn against your shadow, handstitched destiny edges, unraveled in the fire, pulses rage in heart-paced whispers, collision of midnight panther pelts, bleed into powder silk, ravage the gentle merge, your touch upon my awakening sway me softly in your gaze taste me with eyes that pierce my soul from wingtips of butterflies cast from the fire of your existence. Unfold the unspoken words dripping in the creases of this throbbing...needing...wanting heartbeat-slip-stitch, suture seal the ache of gossamer flesh pressed against raven, twin glances, the bookmark, fingertips tracing the eyeprints of your words upon me. ...so resounds the echo... As echo wrecks the body in a fever of words, purged from the ****** night, that devours_and devours_your lips, my hands' gentle cradle, spread its roots dark these russet threads the gold, swept wetly over hands, like nerves, quickening and so laden with tremors, these words echo echo Slip knot tongues intertwine, tangled tasting breathes, exhaled in slow moans surging, purging that drink_and crave_and need m o r e beneath hands that unleash the fervor, lips pressed through the flames, as gossamer falls upon panther silk, an exigent trespass, beyond the touch beyond the kiss, educe the quake and the quiver within this rapture. ...so resounds the echo echo...

The Echo:
There lived, beneath a hanging leaf A Ladybird called Annie Who hated being female And daily, cursed her ***** Her voice was deep and baleful Her shoulders, broad and strong By right, she was a Boybird Just her genitals were wrong Her family rejected her She alive alone, ashamed Until she met a Dragonfly ‘Salvation’ she proclaimed For every bug and critter When feeling below par Would visit Doctor Dragonfly In his empty pickle jar Just maybe he could help her With snip, a tuck and stitch She’d not be Annie any more Tomorrow, she’d be Mitch She lay down on the table And a beetle knocked her out The doctor took his knife in hand And bustled all about With suture made of thistledown And sap of pine for glue He reassigned her gender But the best that he could do Was not a lady, not a man But somewhere in between And, as he used some aphid parts The ***** were small and green Annie never changed her name It didn’t seem quite right Her family still shunned her She slept alone at night The only insect in the field With ***** ***** and ***** Even hungry birds avoided Ladyboybird Annie

Annie's *****
We gather them, These stolen moments, These orphaned seconds, These lost dark minutes. Stateless, Unattached, These refugee clicks With no form or voice Do not belong here. We pile them up, These off cuts of time, These shards of passing, This swarf of tempo. Shreds of interval And dislocation With no named event To give them title. And with our small words we bind them, A suture in the wounded day, To make a tiny poem of the scars.

Stolen Time
A leitmotif of your average smug **** is a proverb here and there. Spouting them off like the receptor has no care. Their evidential naivety is blatant and almost impossible to bear. As an audience member you can do nothing but hide your malevolence and stare. ******* in maxims that are apparently laced with benevolence and care. You know the kind of oxygen waster I’m referring to. The type of person that watches BBC 4 and likes tofu. The kind that does the Financial Times So-fucking-Do-Ku. Look I’m just saying that clichés annoy me. I’m not asking you to love me, give me a reach around or employ me. In fact you don’t even have to enjoy me as I tell you of things that matter not. Suture yourself hypothetically to a geographically different mind. That mind being mine, oh that maverick-esque mischievous mind of mine, looking at this from my perspective. In my transcendental endeavours to rid the clichéd ridden world of the afore mentioned adjective. In the opposite of anachronistic times, we might successfully, surreptitiously rid the world of moral coated rhymes. We can do this; all it takes is a few. One of which needs to be you. Break out from being solipsistic, even the blind, the meek, the autistic, those that besmirch the edge of coffee cups with their lipstick. Yes, I mean you. Here is what to do… The next time someone spouts off a cliché, punish them, make them listen to an album by “Hearsay.” If someone says “An Apple a day keeps the doctor away.” Then simply say, Steve Jobs had thousands and the here’s the definite answer, that consumerism inducer still died of cancer. If a woman says “When I say jump. You say how high!” Don’t even cogitate to pardon her. If the grass is always greener on the other side – shoot your ******* gardener.

Ode to Self Walking on my own in this road to nowhere I have thought my life was a whole lot better Without the things that I used to consider Superficial like love that made me bitter Then an angel came to me in a jiffy Dressed in golden feathers with lips like ruby Suddenly I was enthralled by her beauty Misery left me then came my love story She gave me her heart and I found my shelter At last my cry was like the rushing river Can’t imagine why God put us together Only to be with another’s arms sooner It’s hard to live in the shadows of her past Happiness gave company yet left so fast I don’t have the clue of how long will I last Like a fracture in a sculpture with a cast My hopes have faded like the stars were aligned Like prayers answered like proposals declined Bursting with ideas from an empty mind Beauty of irony which left them behind I have heard limericks from my broken heart Pieces of memories being torn apart Mosaics of truth that built a fancy art But I don’t want to go back from where I start Ode to Beloved Sassy lady how lovely you shine so bright Blind me, come and take away my precious sight Do you want me to go on a solo flight? Or be a tool for another man’s delight? Oh ears of my dearly loved can you hear me? Draw closer to me please respond to my plea Heed the sonata of my melancholy It feels like I’m falling with no gravity You‘ve lost your sight from the dimness of the dusk You’ve fooled your own heart when you wore on that mask Love was next to you even if you don’t ask Like a machine with an automated task Hey girl do you see a man from your future? Do you know that he would stitch up your suture? From sorrows that have caused your heart to rupture Which made you weak and soon became your nature If metaphors can be like reality And reality can foresee destiny I don’t know how happy it would be for me If you could make sense of my allegory Just gaze at nowhere but only in the front Disregard the pasts that persist as they haunt Like carcasses in graves so ghastly and gaunt Walk with me make sure it isn’t just a jaunt iamthe_avatar ©2010

I look inside, all I see is gold I try to let it out but ain't bold I got caught up in what I was told On the outside, I start to grow mold. My content is intact But I couldn't get it out Disapproval a major factor Maybe I need a mentor Or a mental restructure Falling apart, I need a suture Started to mine my reserve I ensured to preserve Slowly began to serve All the negativity reversed A lot blessed by every verse.
