This
I'm the villain
That be spilling and instilling
Somehow willing unfulfilling
Never killing
I'm the gritty
In the city
Itty bitty
Gas $1.50
Feeling shitty
By committee
I'm unchosen
Snowman frozen
Road is closing
Nothing goes in
I'm a writer scubadiver
Crazy fighter
Match and lighter
My insider

My thoughts #1
I see more questions than answers. More paths than exits. I see no truth only the unknown. Because what is known has so much more needed to be discovered. Nothing is simple. But yet, everything starts at the same place. Different surroundings but the same old road. We try to learn and as we learn, we learn not only what we know but how little we know. We are so small compared to the universe and what it entails. But yet, we keep fighting to make it ours.
I'm different. We all are. But deep down, we have similarities. Some had a rough upbringing. Some have it rough right now. Some...

Thought by me
We as people are flawed. Flawed in so many ways that we can't tell wrong from right. Flawed so much we are afraid to take a chance. Flawed so much we fear we are the problem. Flawed and imperfect, but yet so perfect at the same time

Go
Two paths come to one road
Two directions for you to choose
One right and one wrong
So what are you going to do
One door leads to utter paradise
The other leads to the utmost pain
One key unlocks your destiny
The other will make you insane
A warrior's battle within his inner light
A knight's legacy from mystic lore
A wizard's power to vanquish the darkness
A hero's beliefs, his innermost core
The question is impossible
The answer is unknown
Your heart is in...
Two directions for you to choose
One right and one wrong
So what are you going to do
One door leads to utter paradise
The other leads to the utmost pain
One key unlocks your destiny
The other will make you insane
A warrior's battle within his inner light
A knight's legacy from mystic lore
A wizard's power to vanquish the darkness
A hero's beliefs, his innermost core
The question is impossible
The answer is unknown
Your heart is in...

Transparency
I cried and I begged
I tried and I bled
I fought and I clawed
I thought and I read
I'm lone and in misery
I'm grown but a mystery
I'm small but a lion
I'm silent but a siren
A wish in the making
A niche in an awaking
A bird in a comfy nest
A herd starts the quaking
The truth impossible to see
The proof impossible to believe
The lie told to write this story
The unfortunate soul without the glory
I tried and I bled
I fought and I clawed
I thought and I read
I'm lone and in misery
I'm grown but a mystery
I'm small but a lion
I'm silent but a siren
A wish in the making
A niche in an awaking
A bird in a comfy nest
A herd starts the quaking
The truth impossible to see
The proof impossible to believe
The lie told to write this story
The unfortunate soul without the glory

Use
Where am I going
What am I meant to do
There's something for me
But that I hardly knew
I hear a whisper
Not much left to lose
I take a picture
I'm writing down my clues
I hear a courage and a given name
I've rewritten the news
I run toward a light
To stop the abuse
I dream of a world
To know no recluse
To write a poem
Like one Dr Seuss
I'm tying a knot
I'm making a noose
Two sides come together
Now creating a truce
...

Time resubmission
Time is hard to just explain
It will flow in the same way
Yet never the destination
Think of the city subway
A different path and location
Make one point and then one line
They are sat completely still
Yet there is more you can find
Think of The Matrix and pill
You choose to open your mind
Draw a circle on a graph
Connect it to every side
Follow each and every path
The moon moves around the tide
Multiply and subtract the math
I am in constant motion
One place yet...
It will flow in the same way
Yet never the destination
Think of the city subway
A different path and location
Make one point and then one line
They are sat completely still
Yet there is more you can find
Think of The Matrix and pill
You choose to open your mind
Draw a circle on a graph
Connect it to every side
Follow each and every path
The moon moves around the tide
Multiply and subtract the math
I am in constant motion
One place yet...

Deep
A hole opens up beneath the solid floor
The unfound souls shout from deep within
The fire burns as the light shimmers down below
A journey forward, through the bitter end
A stormy night, the demons play
The devil whistles, nowhere to hide
The cage it beckons, the fear it breathes
A story of man, and the death from one's pride
A lost bird, it dreams of a family
The song, it strings out a tune
The past is becoming the present
A victor, but no golden rune
A thought trapped within one's mind
The truth to never be...
The unfound souls shout from deep within
The fire burns as the light shimmers down below
A journey forward, through the bitter end
A stormy night, the demons play
The devil whistles, nowhere to hide
The cage it beckons, the fear it breathes
A story of man, and the death from one's pride
A lost bird, it dreams of a family
The song, it strings out a tune
The past is becoming the present
A victor, but no golden rune
A thought trapped within one's mind
The truth to never be...

Quick thought
I keep on dreaming but the message is deceiving
The heart is grieving from this little double meaning
My head and soul bleeding but my failures repeating
My right foot leading but the rest of me retreating
The unlucky man pleading as he stays to struggle breathing
The best, they are achieving but the rest are not competing
The waters, they are receding, and the two lines not close to meeting
The heart is grieving from this little double meaning
My head and soul bleeding but my failures repeating
My right foot leading but the rest of me retreating
The unlucky man pleading as he stays to struggle breathing
The best, they are achieving but the rest are not competing
The waters, they are receding, and the two lines not close to meeting

Utmost sorrow
As the darkest dawn grows so ever closer
As the end of days is within one's sight
The devil beckons for you to continue
But the inner demons are so hard to fight
Your mind and soul was crushed completely
Your heart and dreams are never found
The curtain opens but the moment's over
The hope inside is not around
One's fear locks the metal shackles
One's sorrow keeps the cell sealed shut
You try and break the toughest barrier
But what you do, is never enough
A window is only open for so long
A...

My future
I feel we all write for one reason and I'm not an amazing writer but I do want to learn. Starting tomorrow, I'm going to try to tell a story of writing itself. Try to be truthful to what I want to say. I had a poem set up but accidentally forgot to save it and I'm A little upset about that. I'll send a poem in the morning.

Different
I'm a different soul
In a different light
I want to be known
But I'm not alright
I want to believe
I wish I could fight
Alone and afraid to live
The devil in the darkest night
I dream and I wish
I read and I write
I think and I pray
But no exit in sight
So instead I will speak
But never to be heard
A quiet silence deafening
The cries from a lonely little bird
The truth is I try
But the demon unstirred
A knight and his shadow
An author with no single word
