Flowers at the Door
Every morning I would wait
To bring her flowers at the door
I was so young and naïve
To believe someone like her
Would fall for me
So today,as I always had,
Brought her flowers at the door
Should a bee be without honey?
Or the sky not so sunny?
To have her without them in her hands
Would be a crime
On the day of her graduation
I wanted to profess my love for her
Or to tell her thank you
For the kind words and thanks she
Had given me, like presents every day
I choked up and got scared
And thought “she has her...

TB
A new friend blew in one morning
her name was TB
as I breathed her in with a gasp
I knew one day she would scar me
I inhaled her treacherous smoke
as she asked to be my friend
but I actually went to ask her
to contaminate me with her image
From day to day it went on
like a lingering sickness does
I welcomed her stench
the rotting air that made me
foul of breath
She penetrated my inner fortress
my sanctum seclorum
every lung inhale,every moment
seemed to be the last
a relief, a release
Then one day out of...

Earth Woman
Last weekend I killed my woman
She was outside as usual
Showing the world her beauty
Her comforting arms
Her beautiful hair
Her perfect legs that seemed to Go on forever
And her body that no one but God could ever make
She was always adorned in the finest of ornaments
Until I tore off her clothes
And sawed her body apart
And cut off her head
And to conceal the evidence
I tossed her body parts into the fireplace
Where I relaxed in comfort at my evil doings
Oh how I miss her when I look outside
And the birds miss her too
She was outside as usual
Showing the world her beauty
Her comforting arms
Her beautiful hair
Her perfect legs that seemed to Go on forever
And her body that no one but God could ever make
She was always adorned in the finest of ornaments
Until I tore off her clothes
And sawed her body apart
And cut off her head
And to conceal the evidence
I tossed her body parts into the fireplace
Where I relaxed in comfort at my evil doings
Oh how I miss her when I look outside
And the birds miss her too

INVISIBLE
I opened my eyes one day to find out
I am invisible
How can this be as I thought under
The bridge of despair that I built
I am here, I am person, and I am life
The wanting to be noticed, to be remembered
To be heard was aching my bones
I thought I’ve done correct and true to
Life and wholesome truths
But who am I?
I have no family
No home
No job
I have nothing
Nothing to gain is nothing to lose
And nothing to hold onto
Nothing but the eyes, the eyes of demons
They are always around
Wanting me to...
I am invisible
How can this be as I thought under
The bridge of despair that I built
I am here, I am person, and I am life

Life and wholesome truths
But who am I?
I have no family

Nothing to gain is nothing to lose

Unknown Grave
Today I lay on an unknown grave
Someone from somewhere knew who this someone was
The headstone still lives, but the story is all gone
Who knows who is in there?
As I lay on this grave of an unknown someone
It might be a grim reminder
That I am also no one, but I am alive
Less worse to be no one and dead
I fell asleep on that unknown grave
It was a comfortable rest, or be it so grizzly
That I was so comfortable with death
To share the topsoil of a dead someone unknown
Unanswered are my stories my lifetime shares
My dreams, my...

RUN
I had to run, I had to run away
From everything, from myself
From the person I was going to be
Where I was going, I didn’t care
As long as I was free
What was I leaving behind?
A girlfriend that was a runaway herself
A poor person as a friend
A girl that blamed me for her pregnancy
A dead job that made me depressed
And the beatings of my parents
Verbal and otherwise
What was there to lose?
A lot…
A lot of nothing
What was out there to gain?
The whole world
So I ran
I’m still running in some sense, gaining...
From everything, from myself

Where I was going, I didn’t care
As long as I was free
What was I leaving behind?
A girlfriend that was a runaway herself
A poor person as a friend
A girl that blamed me for her pregnancy
A dead job that made me depressed
And the beatings of my parents
Verbal and otherwise
What was there to lose?
A lot…
A lot of nothing

Evermore
A weeping covers my heart
Feeling so alone
And angry for some reason
Deep inside is where it started
From within this crude coffin
I want to scream out to the clouds
And smack the sun for its arrogance
I want to shatter the moon
And drink its soul to drunkenness
And froth from within yelling
"who dare oppose me!?"
Shut me up in a tiny box
Seal me in my darkness
Spear me with daggars and swords
Let their tasteful steel
Tear at flesh and bone
As I wisper loudly more
Let me cast the old spirit down
I...

Blanket Of Death
I wear the blanket of death
It seems to always encompass me
Whereever I go
Whatever I do
I always drag the frindges along the ground
For someone to trip on
I feel people see it draped on me
They seem to get out of my way
And turn their heads
Hoping to avoid being caught in my wind
And have a fiber land on them
Oh how I loathe you,wretched mantel
Your ever poison,your bleakness and murders
How you make me run to you
I hug you like a long lost love
Never wanting to let go
Crying a lake of perpetual hate for you
For...
