Freedom Flame
A fire burns
that I lit
and stepped in.
I smell the fumes
that scream
with honesty
and hurt,
desire,
and longing.
Hurt me now!
Burn my sorrow.
Melt my skin
and bury
this shame.
that I lit
and stepped in.
I smell the fumes
that scream
with honesty
and hurt,
desire,
and longing.
Hurt me now!
Burn my sorrow.
Melt my skin
and bury
this shame.

Dead and Gone
Sorry to all but I'm dead and gone.
Can't take the pain anymore.
So forever I fall.
Don't worry about me anymore.
For I'm already dead and gone.
Can't take the pain anymore.
So forever I fall.
Don't worry about me anymore.
For I'm already dead and gone.

Dead on Arrival
One hundred cuts and one too deep.
All they can do is watch me bleed.
Into the back of the ambulance.
On the way to the hospital.
Problem was they were too late.
Now I am classified as dead on arrival.
All they can do is watch me bleed.
Into the back of the ambulance.
On the way to the hospital.
Problem was they were too late.
Now I am classified as dead on arrival.

The Unbound
When the ties dissolve at last
dreams put aside with full intent
to seek the dreams of vacancy
beyond the dross of everyday
the pressures sought to transform
coal to diamonds as a result
instead fine powder fills the air
blinding those who seek the sky
ash from urns not yet interned
contribute to the pressing mood
as the thoughts turn inward
disregarding where life finds charm
the magical falling short
and then forgotten in retrospect
the mystic damned before the fall
as the unbound dissolves the...

The Ocean Is Disgusting
You got drunk and did
Something and now a
New thing was
Invented
Pink hats, yellow
T-shirts, and
Ray-Bans
There’s nothing new
Under the
Appalachians and
The sun was burning in
My urethra because
I was trying to
Pass another
Kidney stone
After another
Drunken night
In Manhattan
Beach
So you’re the
Other bitch
That betrayed
Me. Why am
I not surprised?
Come back when
I say it’s okay to
Come back to
Me
...

Shattered wings
Shattered dreams of young raven,
wrapped in an immaculate fleece,
from innocent lamb woven.
Dreams of tomorrow helplessly ended;
whom or what to blame?
A mother's heart going insane.
The sparrow's flight broken in mid air.
No chirp can bring him back again;
wings, self broken, cruxified invane.
He's wandered deep into the black forest.
All cries, now heard, are torture and blame;
illusion of death's freedom: a shot to the head!
A state of bliss ends the hurt in his brain,
leaving those who loved...
wrapped in an immaculate fleece,
from innocent lamb woven.
Dreams of tomorrow helplessly ended;
whom or what to blame?
A mother's heart going insane.
The sparrow's flight broken in mid air.
No chirp can bring him back again;
wings, self broken, cruxified invane.
He's wandered deep into the black forest.
All cries, now heard, are torture and blame;
illusion of death's freedom: a shot to the head!
A state of bliss ends the hurt in his brain,
leaving those who loved...

Exhaustion
My head is so fucked up
That suffering
Is the only thing
That gives me
Peace
And everyday that pain
Wears thinner
And thinner,
Until like an old leather boot
Worn hardy
And well...
I feel myself
Falling
To pieces....

Insomniac
I can't sleep
I over think
A time machine
Plays the scenes
Inside my head
A younger me
Should have said
Should have fought
Stood up
On those hostile moments
I should have shared
Myself with him
I looked around
Their eyes bold
Laughing at us
I should have tried
To see the rise
What could have been
Lost in Imagination
High definition
Reality foreign
I escaped the one with you in it
What will be next
Time forwards
Can't be sure ...
