Life By My Pen
Life By My Pen
I wish I could be like Jane Austin and live by my pen
And relax and catch my breath every now and again
I say I write for the thrill, and for the high,
Yes that’s the truth but its also a lie
I live by the words and the words flow through me
It churns like my blood, on a constant journey
The reason I don’t though, is because writing is the cheapest of expensive gifts
It’s the smoothest and sexiest of guitar riffs
Its cheap because it costs you nothing,
Its expensive cause it cost you time ...

The Grudge
The Grudge
It’s complicated, it’s complex, it’s deceitful and holds no truth,
it may seem to make all look possible, but it is something that I never choose to achieve,
this life was created but was it planned or destine to be, is your love due payment for not asking me to live,
would you be happier without me,
would you even be here without me,
would you have purpose without me,
would you even be alive without me,
you stay mad at me for things I would have never done to begin with, your disappointed at the decisions I have made,
my...

In Middle School
In middle school I learned to cuss
In middle school I learned to cuss,
I thought I loved, I learned to crush
Sign sealed delivered after I wrote them love letters
Only received a few in return, but I kept writing nonetheless
So….I cussed
Jus a young boy still playing with toys
Trying to outrun sorrow searching for joy
I wrote short notes cursing my father, praising my mother
Even wrote long ones confessing my love and adoration for music
But the short notes lingered in my blood like venom eating me to death
Parents at war over finances...

Temporary Regression/Permanent Progression
Temporary Regression/Permanent Progression
I had seen a dream of me and you, and even as time has passed, at times that fantasy is still all I see, even now I cant help but wish and pray for your happiness, just because I cant see you doesn’t mean my feelings are as absent as you are from my sight, there is no escape from you, the trembling and apprehensive sensation when your close to my thoughts, the nightmares that wake me in a dreadful panic with the fear of the closeness of death because of your presence, this is madness, my insanity has become my...

Not Who You'd Thought I'd Be
I was the boy who you said was 2 short or to small,
I was the boy with those round golden glasses,
When we picked teams i may have been the guy who got picked 2nd to last,
yes i was even the boy you were ashamed 2 admit you thought was cute...
Now I Am a Man now wat do you think I think of you?

The Gift
"The Gift"
I hear it rattling in my head, ringing in my ears,
it stings, it itches, it pushes and it pulls,
it spears me with pain, but there is no greater rush,
no higher high, even now I tingle with an undesirable excitement only "The Gift" can grant,
inspired by the air, enlightened by life, and tested by love,
all give reference to the words from which we speak,
those cursed and blessed words that keep us up at night,
that wont let us sleep until they are given the opportunity to tell their story,
only those with...

Don't Compare Me To Your Ex
Don’t compare me to your EX
You said you were done, you said it was over, do you lie so much you have become a believer of your own deceit, how dare you say you love me, when you claim that you lost the love of your life, do I mean so little to you, am I just a place holder, jus a settlement from what you really desire,
Don’t try to fool me,
Don’t’ compare your feelings for me when your moments of joy with me are only equal to the moments of sadness of your past, how can you say I comfort you when you make me so uncomfortable, it’s seems with all I have accomplished there is...

Lost Dream Come True Failed Fantasy
For years I've waited
I thought I was patient
The wait I thought was over, pain that was endless finally ended
I had burnt my black book of former lusts
Buried lovers in the cemetery of failed dreams
All because I Believed in a dream come true, or so I deducted
Heard fairy tales only end when we stop believing
I Believed but it feels like its ending
That pain is returning
Doubt by doubt
Insecurity by insecurity
And they aren't even mine
But because my heart is yours I still try to carry your heart's burdens on my...

The Fall
The Fall
We spend our life looking and searching
We know exactly what we seek
We know what we wish to find
Time after time we come up short; the mistakes are made thus making us apprehensive, as much as we desire for someone to treasure our hearts, past experiences pain us to give up hope. So when we finally come close enough to what we want to possess, reaching the edge of the cliff and as we peek over the view frightens us, peering over the edge there seems no end is in sight, how can we trust the unknown?
We want to fall but we want to be caught
We want the...

No Words and Nothing to Say...
No words & Nothing to Say…
It’s called quiet because nothing is there, because there is nothing to say, not a whisper or voice in the distance, even yelling to the top of one’s capacity at close range falls on def ears, no words with enough substance to really matter, to truly change the conclusion you’ve unconsciously predetermined, how can we talk when there are no apologetic words to convey, no comforting words to let you know everything will be alright, why would you even take account of any words uttered to you when your mind is already a labyrinth of complexity and confusion,...

Get Intimate With Me
Get Intimate With Me
How is it so easy to get Intimate in one way, and so difficult in another?
How can you give me your body so willingly but your heart and mind seem to only have a momentary vacancy for me
I want more than anything for you to see that intimacy is far more than physical
Your emotional and psychological intimacy is my true desire and the yearning for it churns my blood jus as fiercely as the touch your hands gliding over my body
Can’t you undress your heart in the same slow sexy manner you disrobe your clothes for me
