POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
Poet Introduction
All these crazy things in my head aren't just going to pop out unless I take the time to slowly decrypt the codes. And then I can take them to a new place where our hearts lay close.
f**k rhyme scheme I miss my buddy
Expecting a life change
Just down and down
Stuck in the drain
Wish I had it in me
To just do, and not to flee
I keep you close to me
In hope
One day I'll be as you
Truest of true
Ill never be complete
Without my poolhall buddy to compete
I know ive burnt my bridges
But I hope one day
Like we always said
we'll be cooking hot dogs and burgers
For our dumbass kids
Just down and down
Stuck in the drain
Wish I had it in me
To just do, and not to flee
I keep you close to me
In hope
One day I'll be as you
Truest of true
Ill never be complete
Without my poolhall buddy to compete
I know ive burnt my bridges
But I hope one day
Like we always said
we'll be cooking hot dogs and burgers
For our dumbass kids

Bodies in the Walls
Sitting in an empty corner seeing if I am able to scream through the paint. Nothing seems to penetrate the second coat. My skin is slowly soaking in an anesthesia deep within blinding me of waking up. Restraints holding me down, I squirm and scream with no movement or sound. If I fade to black I pray the day I feel the prick of this dull needle a trillion times. I scrape through the first layer only to feel the warmth of your blood pour over my cold hands. I shouldn't have placed your gravestone so soon. A body buried only inches below the surface, you ascended back into my world without...

Caged Raven
One so hurt by many fouls
One so hurt by all the decals
Covering your eyes so none can see
All that he has given to be
Yours truly
Blinded by the past recollection
All that's sought in your mind's perfection
Dwindling down through parallel streams
More like tangled and mangled weeds
Blinds closed shut to her corruption
All that is left is his intuition
Making him hate the very thing you are
Leaving him with your permanent scar
But in truth he'll find his ultimate bind
And feel what is...

---One Way--->
No white lines left to follow
This highway is all but hollow
Filled with ghosts from severed pasts
Only proving that nothing lasts
As you drive off in the distance
Along with my hopes in that single instance
Taking away my only right
Not even left with the means to fight
We're both heading in only one direction
And maybe one day I can make that connection
Where two lost souls met in the middle of the road
And one was found and one was sold
Around the bend and out of sight
I can't keep on this road without light
I'll take...

Becalmed* For Eternity
Seemingly endless nights
Filled with poison to help the fight
Only to see myself--with the venom in hand
Where has my soul gone, have I been had?
Who I am has been stolen
The one who stole my being someone
My inner self is lost at sea
Left with no paddle and a priceless fee
Will I find my shadow, my place?
Where am I to be?
If not here, then maybe somewhere we can't see
Desperate, I'll drop my anchor in any shore
Not sure if this dream is what I want anymore
Maybe I'll find a new place to...

The Meaningless Fight
Screaming outlandish remarks
Just to see if there's a spark
Winding down the ticking time bomb
Letting it all explode to dark
Only so long before things go array
My mind can only get so insane
So I plug in a new world and out with the old
I keep my mouth shut and do what im told
But a tiger can only be poked so many times
The anger inside only rings and chimes
Until eventually, you brought on this fight
Now things are exploding into tremendous light
I take my old world and bring it down unto yours
I drop my senses and let down...
