Recreational drugs
I’m smelling fucking colours
I’m seeing through the stars
My eyes have become portals
My body’s up on Mars
I think I’ve become Woody
I think I’ve become Buzz
No wait, I’m actually Bullseye
Ha-ha I’m actually sars
My anatomy is changing
My cells have become cars
The wheels on this bus are turning
On this clock you have my heart
My minds morphed into numbers
Speech has become blurred
Language into music
Pictures into words
Take me to your mother
Ask her, would she take me? ...

(26) Life As I Know It V.XIII.MMXV @ 4:04pm
Drugs ignite twisted perceptions.
Times are rough, that’s an expectation.
Everything the world does is meaningless.
Life keeps teaching us.
In the bathroom reflecting on events that occurred.
Scribbling it down as I’m flying like a bird.
Hoping one day these painful rhymes get recognized.
Miserable memories linger, my family cries.
Life’s a twisted dimension, swirling in circles.
Roaming dark alleyways, smoking on some purple.
I don’t have enough reasons to live nor end it.
Regardless, I can’t split.
I’m not the one...

A friend and a foe
Hello old friend we need to talk about the good times and the bad.
When our love was strong you kept me safe me through all the pain I had.
When i was hurt and sad the more you got involved.
The more we were together our bond did grow and that is when we evolved.
You confused me with lust and lies, I did not want to live with out you.
So many walls around my heart you wouldn't let anyone get threw.
I blindly burnt down bridges gasoline and matches in my hand.
Life time bonds crash at at my feet, in the past I could not understand.
I have had some time...

A TRIBUTE TO MRS. ZINN (I Love You)
Sadness covered the earth, as.the
chariot came,
And silence fell, like gentle rain.
Friends and loved ones mourned the
day
The angels came to take her home to
stay.
But, lo, the Heavens burst forth with
delight,
As another Saint came into sight!
Prepare the choir, open the gates...
Sound the trumpet, the King
awaits!!
"Welcome, my child, we've been
waiting for you!
Your mansion's prepared and your
robe is too.
Enter your home, Here,sit on my
right...
You'll be dining at the Head Table ...

In the air
Light of the dusk casting hues of pink.
I stand bare on the beach.
Only thing I have on a smile and a buzz.
Nothing else in reach.
Sand crevices in my toes.
Cool breeze nestling air around me.
Watching the sun vanish from the sky.
Enjoying all I see.
Nothing with me Nothing on.
No one here no one to come.
Yeah I'm at peace with the world
Hit of my blunt flavored in rum.
Tranquility can't be bought.
You can't pay for peace.
Feel out of sorts.
Come smoke with me.

On this lonesome highway
Bridges engulfed
no going back
Bridges engulfed
warm safety blanket
There once was a silver spoon
that soon became a blackened mess
The dish stood aghast
lost within the crack den
On the needle crucified
chasing the face of God
Sound those drums the marching powders arrived
Caved in the septum spelunkers
A hand full of darts smoldering still
coffin nails for that nicotine fix
Liver pickled
Getting that Amphetamine feel
Mainlining time like she's gone out of fashion
When all that's done...

Acceptance Unwelcome
Unlike others
inherently wrong
adorning facades
obsession strong
Drinking early on
eleven years of age
when it began
building a cage
Locking myself in
becoming protection
excruciating discomfort
craving isolation
Acutely intoxicated
always the goal
caring for nothing
lacking spirit and soul
Choosing to numb
malformed emotions
loss of affect
impossible solutions
Alcoholic by nature
often self-denied
acceptance unwelcome

Train tracks
Damn, here we go again...
I know this all too well.
I don't want to do this.
I can't watch you destroy yourself again.
I'm trapped in this bitter hell,
This unforgiving prison.
With no hope of being set free.
These are your choices,
But we both pay the consequences.
This cross is to much to bare.
Paralyzed with anxiety,
Heartbroken and shattered,
Greif strickened,
Drowning with fear,
Mourning you,
As you wither away.
There nothing I can do to save you,
All I can do is watch as you play on the train...

Poison Back
It cuts through my flesh
Leaves my heart to bleed
Oxygen and poison mesh
My vision cannot see
I'm weathered and scorned
By the bright red sun
Saturated and so burned
Doubled twice form as one
But half of me
Has journeyed in time
And this side of reality
Doesn't seem as fine
Crystalized I feel numb
As I float through the air
My mind still deaf and dumb
My heart no feelings to share
My journey has begun
But my will still fights
From life my body runs
Ruined under blackened lights
Jolts try to...
Leaves my heart to bleed
